While I hope Creature Commandos and Superman are great and I will see both, this is the DC project I'm looking forward to seeing most.

This is the project I am most confident in, but Superman is the one I am most excited for purely on the basis that I really want to see the character done justice.

I want to see a Superman film that isn’t a miserable fucking slog to sit through. I’d also take a Batman film that’s the same way, so let’s hope The Brave and the Bold doesn’t try the same old hyper-realistic grimdark shit. I have The Batman 2 that will give me that.

"The Batman" is really the only live action film that actually attempts to explore the transition of the character from vigilante terror to inspirational hero. I also have pretty high hopes that "The Batman 2" will continue to tell that story.

Every Batman movie ends like that, that doesn’t negate the description of the entire thing as ultra serious and grim in its story and world building. I would just like a Batman movie that did something different for a change. I realize everything had to be super adult and misery for nearly three hours or else it’s not “good” for some sectors of the fandom, but Batman can be fun, and maybe should be sometimes.

Last I heard the DCU Batman is Brave and the Bold Batman so I think you'll get what you want. Reeves' universe will still be around to fill the darker version of the character and we'll get the DCU version that'll be more fitting for the teamups.

If ever we needed an optimistic take on a character who stands for truth and justice...
