Do we know for sure Flash is straight? It could be like Aqualad in Young Justice where we just didn't see Flash's other relationships...
Either way, I do think dealing with the Flash is a tough problem I'm glad I don't have to solve, but WBD needs to move on from Miller. This person can't be one of the primary faces of the DCEU.

I was shocked when I learned that this had as much effects shows as Infinity War.
That's crazy. It's a Flash movie. It shouldn't be this expensive and it should never have been a reboot.
I bet they were counting on Batman and the JL cameos to bring in the billions.
Honestly, I wish they would just release it and get it over with at this point.

False. TV, movies etc are consumed by a far bigger number than comics. Batman is far more presence in media. In all formats. TV, movies, toys, videogames etc. You can bet more people know him than SM.
WW being treated poorly and used as Superman's punching bag has to do with sexism. Ironically since DC loves to use her to sell and save face to female audiences and feminism. She is the most iconic and well known female hero. She sells a lot of merchandise. Her movie was a big hit. Yet she is still thrown under the bus. It goes to show that being the most iconic and successful female, means nothing in a sexist industry. SM nowadays is not a bigger money maker than her at BO. His title sells in the same range as hers, yet he deserves a good treatment while she doesn't? Sexism.
DC doesn't need to make an effor with SM? The guy has been a flop at the box office for more than 4 decades. And his title is a flop too. Batman, Spiderman, Ironman etc are more popular and successful than him. WW too in movies has surpassed him in curreten media. So...

Has anyone checked out Discovery+?
I just sampled it and, no offense to the artisans and crews, but it seems filled with trash TV. I guess they are going to benefit alot from getting the scripted content from HBOMAX. At least they will have some fare with a story
Edit: the last 5 tabs are its saving grace. OWN, Planet Earth, Animal Planet, Science Channel, and A&E provide a much needed break in the endless sea of dreadful reality TV

WW would have been a box office flop with Snyder at the helm too. She would also probably have been a box office flop if a movie was made before the CBM explosion. Her sequel didn't exactly light the box office on fire, even though it was streamed while in theatres. The reviews were middling. Man of Steel did okay at the BO, it didn't really flop. Maybe disappointed.
I just find it odd why you have to compare Superman to WW. He is not taking away anything from her in terms of sales or media. He is the OG and caters to more males. WW is more for females, even though there are lots of males that read her comics and watched her movies. I also found it odd you mentioned her tv show being successful since it was in the 70's. That's over 4 decades ago.
I'm not a fan of Zack Snyder's. I find most of his work overinflated, dour, overly dramatic, dark, and dripping with self-importance.
HOWEVER:
I found his Justice League movie to be phenomenal and light years better than the Joss Whedon version, which I struggled to finish.
Author of the Instant New York Times bestselling novel, The Prophets, from G.P. Putnman's Sons.
SM has had flops at BO for over 4 decades now. WW84 had streaming released at the same time during a global lockdown. Context matters.
I am comparing because even though WW has been making money for DC. More than SM at BO nowadays. And her title sells in the same range as his title. She still gets thrown under the bus to be his punching bag binstead of getting more respect.
No she doesn’t. When was the last time he benefitted at her expense in a JL story? Are you still whining about the JL films? Get over it mystical, nobody likes those films and nobody thinks Whedon or Snyder were a good fit for JL. She has another movie coming and a video game, WW fans do not have it that bad. You want to see someone who has really been screwed over go look at GL and Aquaman. Arthur can’t even hold an ongoing despite his billion dollar movie. GL as a franchise has fallen from neck and neck with Batman to zero ongoings currently. That’s what true disrespect and mismanagement look like.

JL movie yes. And injustice, dceased, son of kal el, and literally all the JL comics till these days. Where she is a glorified poster and nothing more. While Superman alwways gets to do something. I don't care about GL and AQ dear. Those characters getting bad treatment doesn't change the fact that the so called most important and iconic female in comics has a guinness record of being treated like trash by the company that swears she is so important. SM's white straight privilage needs to stop. She shouldn't be his punching bag, when he can't even make the big numbers that the real money cow batman does. WW at this point has more than earned the right to be more than Superman's punching bag.
