10 Ways Warner Bros. Should've Made The DCEU

3. Craft It With Multiple Formats In Mind

Although it took some time for Marvel to spread the MCU onto different formats, the rise of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the company's Netflix Originals has served them well.

Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and now the Punisher have all debuted to remarkable success over the years, and while DC haven't experienced comparable success in that medium, they do have a formidable small-screen presence to boast. The Arrowverse, for its faults and shortcomings, is still very popular, and yet there's little sign that the DCEU will be venturing to TV anytime soon.

That's a major problem, and although it's true that the majority of people who go out and watch the MCU on the big-screen will rarely checkout their small-screen counterparts, it's another revenue stream DC are neglecting. If they were to turn their attention to Netflix, what with Disney shifting their wears to their own streaming service, their universe would be so much better.

Plus, there are a whole bunch of candidates well suited for that particular medium. Ignoring it the way WB have just doesn't make any sense at all.
