How Warner Bros Can Fix The DC Extended Universe

Does anybody know for sure how many solo Joker movies are in development? Four? Five? How many of those will actually be connected to the other DCEU movies? Why are similar movies like Birds Of Prey and Gotham City Sirens both being discussed at once? What about that proposed Harley/Joker movie?

Piggybacking off our last point, Warner Bros is also notorious for putting a ridiculous amount of comic-book projects into development, most of which - if we're being realistic - will never actually get made.

Earlier this year, we ran through all 21(!) DC movies that Warner Bros were reportedly working on at the time, and since then, that number has only grown. Why tease fans with stuff that'll never happen? Why make promises that you can't keep? Why confuse moviegoers and pundits with so much information and so many movies that are impossible to keep track of?

For us fans, it's frustrating and downright annoying, and again, it makes Warner Bros look like amateurs. Do they actually know what they're doing? Or are they randomly chucking a bunch of characters at the wall and seeing what sticks? It feels like the latter.

So, Warner Bros: please make yourselves seem stronger, more careful, and smarter. Only put projects into development that you're fully sure of and committed to making, ones that fit within your plan for the DCEU's future. If you seem confident, we can have some confidence in you in return.

Of course, it's okay to tweak these projects as you go - altering the script, swapping characters in and out of movies, that sort of thing - but when half of those 21 in-development movies aren't even going to make it past the scripting phase, what's the point in getting fans' hopes up for no reason?
