I couldn't possibly disagree more, but I do agree that Cavil still deserves a shot.
Same, though also because I'm oddly one of the few people on earth that seems to love Hawkman and am hoping for a good showing there.
I think part of the issue is the never ending comparison with Marvel. Look at their slate versus Sony, Fox and WB from that same time. What they announced they stuck to (even Inhumans, though that obviously went sideways). Everyone else bungled it big time, for various reasons not always in their control.
I am actually still quite excited about the Flash.
That's what's so awesome about many versions and takes on some of these characters. People keep saying 'this is not Superman/Batman/Flash/Aquaman/Wonder Woman/fill in character. There have been so many takes on these characters in the comics, why should the movies be any different?
Seems people just seem to say that about Superman, though, at least, most audibly. There's always naysayers for any casting, but years down the road, people seem fine with most of the other characters except to this day Snyder's Superman.
Honestly? Depends on who you hang around with and talk to.
As humans, we tend to hang out with people we have a common ground with. Most of the superhero/comic fans I'm close with LOVE Cavill's and Snyder's take on Superman.
Oh, absolutely, I see that. I'm saying in general, if you search for negative things about any of the portrayals, the majority is on Superman, very few if any on the other listed characters.
I read "This is not Superman" 100 times for every "This is not Flash" (which I honestly doubt I've ever read).
I see what you mean. I suppopse people might hold the Man Of Steel to a higher standard, maybe?
Me too, but its release has been moved to next year.
Without a doubt. Cavill's Superman was the far and away best version of this era, and easily one of the top two live action Superman portrayals. ...and yes he deserves a sequel. I believed Cavill did have one additional film in his contract, so that would be a chance to see another great chapter in the DCEU.
It's still canon as far as I'm concerned.
For myself and most of those I've heard from/read, casting was never the issue.
In an interview I read a couple weeks ago, Matt Reeves, the director & co-writer of The Batman, was asked about Superman, and he didn't totally rule it out. He said they would just need to find a way to make their Superman fit in the more grounded world they've created.
Ah crap....
And from what I understood, Cavill himself isn't against it either. I also get the feeling that there's a big enough crowd for it.
Update on the rumor. Affleck's Batman at this point in time might actually survive

Wonderful turn of events, if true.
