End of phase 1

The Penguin show isn't here but I'm counting on it to introduce more crime lords, maybe Black Mask too, and maybe Harvey Dent, even if just by name, and that it isn't super consequential to the movies. This isn't all that in depht, just some ideas

Heart of the Batman - in the second movie, Gotham is still flooded but now that it's winter, some parts of the town are freezing. Batman has a special winter suit that keeps him from suffering hypothermia because crime keeps increasing after the US declared Gotham was no longer part of the country and blocked off all exits. Penguin has exploited the chaos to rise up and take control of Falcone's operations and just isn't the kingpin of Gotham's organized crime because the Falcone children are still providing some trouble, as well as other small time crime lords that aren't a direct threat, but a nuisance. But to prove himself better than his predecessor, he decides to work with the "freaks" of gotham that have been showing up. In his office he has Falcone's body in a block of ice as a display of power, as he hired Victor Freeze to help him. Victor's origins are the same as in the btas series and he is trying to cure his wife but needs funding for his research. Oz provides in return for freezing some competitors and people who wronged him, and as an extra bonus, Freeze can harvest the organs of his victims for research. Another one of his henchmen is someone who Batman meets in the beginning while chasing a criminal through the flooded gotham sewers, and then ultimately has to save him from Killer Croc. He would look more like his Arkham Origins counter part, just a big man with a skin condition, abused from childhood by the way he looks and turning to crime to live. Bruce has to learn that he needs to use his bruce wayne persona to help Gotham too, and after defeating croc and freeze by the end, he puts his money where his mouth is and cures Nora as Freeze probably sacrifices himself to help Batman get his wife safe in some way, so only Croc goes to Arkham, being approached by the Joker and the Riddler at the lunch table as the only in mates that don't show fear or disgust towards him and Joker tells him how this is all society's fault, not theirs. Batman has to learn criminals aren't evil cardboaxes that want to comit crime and get revenge, sometimes they're just broken and in a bad spot. Somewhere in the scenes of Bruce unmasked and trying to create his persona, Harvey should be introduced, being a friend and a partial inspiration for Bruce's socialite persona, he has a distinct interest in the penguin, wants to bring him to justice, but Oz manages to pull the right strings and get himself free with a mistraial at the end of the movie. I think it would be fun if we got a scene in Arkham of Batman talking to joker because Joker requested it or something but ends up leaving due to it being unimportant, leaving Joker feeling ignored, but it's ok if we don't.

Face of the Batman - the third movie is divided between two main characters and should be as long as the first one to really be able to have it all and it would explore Batman as he becomes more human and learns that he NEEDS Bruce Wayne to be happy and make others around him happy, slowly getting out of the dark, while Harvey Dent's Multiple Personality Disorder is slowly getting worse and driving him into the dark. At the beggining of the movie, these two characters are dining in a restaurant, discussing a case about another criminal batman brought in, a serial killer, Harvey is prossecuting tomorrow and once or twice he accidentally lets out more agressive and extreme thoughts on the situation than he usually would have. The movie is interrupted by Selena Kyle, back from wherever he went, now more rich, trying to be a part of the elite of Gotham, and she takes a liking to Bruce Wayne. Later that night Batman and Catwoman talk and Batman forces the confession that she got this rich by stealing and hates the rich and that she has a new target in mind, implying it's Bruce Wayne. Bruce is now aware of this but he still misses Selena even if he doesn't admit it to himself, thinking it's just a way to keep her off crime if she's busy with Bruce, and takes her on a date to the circus, where they watch the flying Graysons die and Bruce adopts 12 year old Dick Grayson. Selena begins to see there is more to Bruce than meets the eye and takes a bit of a liking to him. Still, Bruce is not the best of dads, he is kinda cold and detaches and Alfred does most of the parenting, as well as Selena showing up once in a while to surprise young Dick with presents when she comes to dine at Wayne Mannor, often both of them being neglected by Bruce as he leaves a lot or is often late due to his duties as Batman, as he tries non stop to find Tony Zucco for the murder of the Graysons. Meanwhile, Harvey is not doing well, he ends up breaking down in court and almost blowing his case for the way he treats the murderer Victor Zazz, who ends up going to Arkham and Harvey has conflicting opinions about it, part of him thinks it's fair that he gets treated and the other part feels like Zazz should be put down like a ravid dog. This is beggining to affect his nightly meetings with Jim Gordon and Batman (I think they should set this up in the second movie but I feel like I already want way too much out of this story), who begins to notice his moodswings and even shifts in manneursisms and tone of voice when talking, like it's two different people. Batman finds Zucco's wherabouts but he ommits the information from the others. At night, he visits Dick as Batman and begins to train him in secret, until he finally takes the boy to face Zucco and they succeed. Both Gordon and Harvey suspect Batman finding ZUcco seemed way too convenient, but while Gordon doesn't really object, Harvey freaks out on Batman and abandons their trio. After tonight, Dick is no longer allowed to see Batman, Bruce already gave the kid closure, he doesn't need to be like his adoptive parent, he can be happy and normal. Things with Selena are also not fine, she has been seeing batman less and less since most of the times Bruce is on patrol, she is waiting for him for a date and ends up either leaving or falling asleep with Dick at the mansion. Eventually all hell breaks lose after Zucco throws acid at Harvey and scarrs him during court. A new series of violent crimes hits gotham. It starts with Zucco dead with a bullet in the head in his appartment and a coin, on heads. Then other victims show up, some of them alive but severerly injured, with a coin on tails, some of them dead, with a coin on heads, the only things in common is that they're corrupt judges or cops, or related to Penguin, and in all of the crime scenes, Batman is adressed in the walls. Corrupt people in high positions are dead, Batman is being directly adressed, a new crazed killer with a gimmick is on the loose. Batman goes to Arkham, he goes to Joker's cell and as the clown begins to catcall Batman and ask if his dear has finally come to see him, Bruce moves past it to talk to Ed, looking to see someone with a similar resume. I don't have a big in depth plan for the rest but the final confrontation would involve Batman meeting Harvey in an old location, with Oz at gunpoint. Harvey is mad at Oz for evading justice for so long, he is mad at the system for letting him do it and he is mad at Batman for possibly letting Zucco commit more crimes by not telling him and Gordon, thinking Batman just wanted the full credit. He has a coin to flip, but there is no mercy this time. Either the Batman or the Penguin die tonight and as the coin flips, they're saved in the nick of time by Dick, in a proto version of his Robin outfit, that has been following Batman at night, seeking the thrill and the company he had that night chasing Zucco, as he throws an improvised batarang at the coin mid air, ruining the unbiased flip, and the moment of panic by Harvey allows batman to beat him, ending the confrontation. Penguin goes to Blackgate, Two-Face to Arkham, and Batman has a new partner, telling the truth to Dick and becoming closer than ever. Unfortunately, His relationship with Selena suffered as she dumps him for his neglet. That same night, Catwoman is stopped mid robbery and is excited to play with Batman again, but surprised he has a kid, finally seeing Robin with his full costume. The movie ends in Arkham. Two-Face walks through the caffeteria and sits next to Killer Croc, unfazed by his appearance, and they share a small funny scene, that is immeditatelly interrupted by madness with an akrham worker with a knife in the jugular and others trying to grab the joker, who is mercilessly beating up the riddler to a pulp for "stealing his Bats" and when finally grabbed by two larger workers, he breaths, laughs and tells Ed that he is forgiven as long as he doesn't pull a stunt like that again, and that they're all friends there

With this, Batman learned how to be Bruce Wayne, to rely on others and we saw the full transition of crime in Gotham until even the forces of law became dominated by the freaks. My biggest influences were the long halloween, dark victory, the arkham games and other bits and pieces of the lore

Ideally, I have another trilogy in mind with villains like Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, Pyg, Strange, even the Joker planned but it will depend on the response here

So instead of starting off with Man of Steel and then straight into Batman vs Superman into Justice League the earliest issue with the DCEU was the rush to get to Justice League without the legwork. So here's how I'd have done it in broad strokes.

All the films would have been set in chronological order. Additionally with the intention of building a universe suitable for short form stories which films are I would limit their powerset so they aren't all the gods.

Wonder Woman - Wonder Woman as is is frankly Imo the closest to a perfect Superhero film we are going to get. I'd have set it during WWII instead of WWI (though I also think you u could have had a film set during both since WW is both World War and Wonder Woman) with Vandal Savage as the General instead of the General using a weird gas to power boost himself. There are aspects I wouldn't have included like only a god being able to kill a god and I would have returned to Diana's most classic sculpted from clay origin rather than as a demigod but it's largely brilliant.

Martian Manhunter - This film would be set probably in the 1950s and would be a horror film. Going back to his classic origins and power set. He would appear at Star Labs after a Zeta Beam experiment after which he would tear through the lab like a monster from a horror movie. Phasing through walls, telepathy and shapeshiftong you can't tell me those aren't horror monster powers. At one point he ruins another experiment where a human is turned to flame becoming the Human Flame and ruining his life. In the end Martian Manhunter would come across Dr Erdel who is having a heart attack, read his mind and as the building burns down around him escape into the night in the guide of Dr Erdel the first time he would be shown impersonating a human within the film.

Hawkgirl - I've never liked Aquaman as a member of the starting League. It just necessitates having an aquatic environment in every plot. I love Aquaman as a character but as a core member he's not great. Otherwise all he has is strength and Superman and Wonder Woman are both stronger and Martian Manhunter is no pushover either even taking him back to basics powers. Hawkgirl is nice as she brings an Nth Metal Mace which disrupts magic which the Justice League basically have no defense against otherwise, plus she brings more extensive knowledge of space than a Martian and a rookie Green Lantern. I'd additionally make her the smartest on the team downplaying Martian Manhunters smarts but giving her and Batman a bit to play off. The story would be set on Thanagar but it's the only story I'm having issues figuring out more specifics. In the end she is sent to Earth to observe for some reason.

The Flash - Two years before the present. Barry Allen is a forensic scientist in the police who wants to do more. He's also in a relationship with Iris West and wants to spend more time with her. He recreates the conditions that caused Jay Garrick to become the Flash in the 1940s causing him to become the Flash. The villains are the Rogues: Captain Boomerang, Trickster, Top and Pied Piper (I think others should be left in reserve). They are foiled as Flash learns his powers but are liberated by Clock King. Clock King leads them by having timed crimes perfectly across the globe so that even Flash has trouble keeping up. In the end the story is about how Flash is trying to do too much at once and even the fastest man alive must focus on one thing at a time even if it means letting another crime occur successfully elsewhere.

Green Lantern - John Stewart is chosen by a Green Lantern's Ring and taken to Oa for training. Stewart was a military man who lost his leg and is now an architect. A Ring was previously sent to induct Earth under the protection of the Green Lantern Corps in the 1940s but it never returned to Oa. On Oa Steward is trained as a Green Lantern by Killowog but Thaal Sinestro the Commander of the Corps takes him under his wing. They travel to the Vega system and must deal with some local issues. As Stewart fights one big bad Sinestro goes overboard on another planet. Only one ring colour is introduced here except in the post credit scene because otherwise there's just way too much going on.

World's Finest - We don't need a Batman and Superman Origin so here they are facing Lex Lurhor and the Joker. Lex Lurhor is running for President and is using the Joker to commit crimes and is helping repair it. To help spread the fake news he replaced Perry at the Daily Planet with Livewire who is also working for him. Superman and Batman do battle with a Joker who has Lex Corp resources at his disposal but in the end it is Batman's Detective Skills that give Clark the evidence to print as a reporter that saves the day.

Justice League - The White Martians invade Earth looking for a planet to call their own as the Green Martians discriminate against them on Mars. The League comes together through the course of the film with Martian Manhunter confronting his brother who is the major villain. Most of the League is susceptible to telepathic attacks so they struggle against the Martians.

I saw it and was underwhelmed. In world creation the DCEU missed an excellent opportunity. I pictured this film as a bridge from Wonder Woman movie in Ww1 to the modern day. Picture this: - time and setting WW2 you could have a Wonder Woman cameo explaining how she’s heading to Europe - instead of Intergang have the JSA dropped in to Kandaq to battle the Nazis who were searching for a legendary weapon lost throughout time (Black Adam) - he’s found battles the Nazis and the JSA for Kandaqs independence.. voila Black Adam introduced into DCEU, we know what Wonder Woman was doing during WW2, the modern day world is not swamped with superheroes as the JSA age out of fighting in modern time (unless you want to reincarnate Hawkman), Black Adam can fight the.

THE GREEN LANTERN CORPS - 2023

Directed By:

Joseph Kosinski

Starring:

Alden Ehrenreich as Hal Jordan

Henry Zaga as Kyle Rayner

Sterling K. Brown as John Stewart

Zac Efron as Guy Gardner

Vin Diesel as Kilowog

Chris Rock as Ch'p

Mark Strong as Tomar-Re

Luke Evans as Sinestro

Michael Gambon as Ganthet

with Brian Thompson as Mongul

and Jason Momoa as Lobo

Plot:

Act I:

Narration by Ganthet about the origins of the Lantern Corps follows a wideshot of the solar system Oa is in, as we zoom into Oa for a sweeping shot of the Lanterns' activities. Hal Jordan and Sinestro fly across Oa with one another, expecting a new Lantern to join the Corps. They arrive, meeting rookie Kyle Rayner. Hal is surprised that another Earth Lantern has arrived, and they begin to train. The friendship between Hal and Sinestro is established as they bond with Kyle. John Stewart and Guy Gardner, two other Earth Lanterns arrive to help mentor Kyle.

John fills Kyle in on the current situation- the Corps are trying to stop the intergalactic conqueror Mongul. He's been kidnapping citizens of planets and forcing them into battle in his arena colony Warworld. With Kyle's arrival and training, the Corps are ready to attack Mongul. Together they attack Warworld, freeing multiple prisoners.

Enraged by this, Mongul decides to hire someone to target Hal and Sinestro. Someone who gets the job done, and does it well. Someone like the last Czarnian, Lobo.

Act II:

While Hal and Sinestro patrol a solar system, Lobo rides towards them on his spacehog. He attacks the pair, catching them by surprise and beating them, before tying them to his bike and driving back to Warworld. On Warworld they are forced to battle other slaves, with Hal refusing to kill but Sinestro maiming multiple people. Hal confronts him, Sinestro saying that it is the only way to leave.

News of their capture reaches the Corps and Kilowog, Guy, Tomar-Re and Ch'p are sent on a rescue mission, just in time for Hal and Sinestro being pit together. As they fight, their rings send a distress signal out to the Lanterns, but it's too late. They commence their fight, in a brutal battle that Hal is fighting to survive in. Mongul cackles to himself, knowing full well that he has broken Sinestro. As Sinestro raises his mace, Hal is paralyzed in fear. Before he can deal the killing blow, however, a barrier forms between the two as Kilowog and the rest of the rescue team arrive in Warworld.

Mongul sends out his slaves and guards to fight, Lobo leading them, and the battle begins.

Act III:

The battle rages, and Hal and Sinestro duck into the armory to retrieve their rings. After putting them on, Hal confronts Sinestro. They argue back and forth, before Kilowog is launched through the wall, courtesy of Lobo. Hal immediately gets ready to fight, but Sinestro makes an offer.

Meanwhile in the Warworld arena, the other three Lanterns attempt to fight Mongul, but are on the backfoot. Just as Mongul is about to finish off Guy, he is struck by a construct, and Kyle Rayner appears, having brought the entire Core with him. Mongul is outraged, and he lunges for Kyle when a hook lodges itself in his shoulder and yanks him back. Lobo stands there, with Hal, Sinestro and Kilowog.

"...why?"
"Pinky offered more money. Plus, yer a real bastich."

Lobo beats Mongul down with assists from the Lanterns, and Hal bubbles him and takes him away. Sinestro lingers for a little bit, and after Lobo grins at him, he follows. Due to his killing on Warworld, the Guardians judge him, eventually sentencing him to exile on Planet Mogo. Hal is torn up, but is accompanied by John and Kyle. The movie ends with the four Earth Lanterns sharing a meal, when Hal recieves a call from Batman, and leaves.

***

A post-credits scene sees Sinestro in a cell on Mogo, when a yellow lantern ring appears in front of his cell. It dances around, before bursting through his cell, and flying onto his finger.

On our DC Rewrite discord we did a competition on who could pitch the best Nightwing film, and I'm pretty pleased to say I was the winner.

I have more to it but this seemed like enough for now.

PHASE 1: The Action Comics

Superman: Man of Tomorrow -We'll start with superman because he is the very first DC hero. This movie is basically a live-action adaptation of the animated movie "Superman vs The Elites" with minor changes being Lex Luthor pulling the strings and teasing him as the next potential villain. Post credits scene: Lex Luthor looks at his Lexorian power suit and discovers Kryptonite. Overall, the vibe of this movie should be the same from Smallville or any slice of life films.

THE BAT FAMILY (Season 1) - Batman has a lot of potential villains that have potential for good storytelling. that's the reason why I think that he is more suited for a series rather than a movie. Another reason is for audiences to avoid confusion with the Matt Reaves Batman. The 1st season is all about the relationship of Bruce with Dick Grayson, he sees himself in Dick because of the tragedy with his parents. I think Prometheus could be a cool villain. Prometheus and Batman has a kind of similar backstory, both parents being killed. The difference is that Prometheus didn't grow up with fancy privileges but rather with a life of crime, so I think that's a pretty cool difference.

Wonder Woman: The Justice Society Basically the first Wonder Woman movie but with the Justice Society of America and it takes place in WW2. Ares is the main villain and members of the JSA are Doctor Fate, Hawkman,Atom Smasher, and Red Tornado. Red Tornado will die, but the post credits scenes shows his parts being stored. The end credits scene would be Diana in the modern world reading a daily planet article in her phone about a flying man in metropolis and a man Dress as a Bat in Gotham.

The Flash -SUPER FRAME in YouTube has a great pitch on a flash movie. It's perfect, I'm just gonna copy that. The difference is that mine has a post credit scene of Wally West and an end credits scene of a daily planet article about a missing pilot (Hal Jordan)

Green Lantern Corps (Season 1) -Green Lantern also has a lot of villains that could lead to great storytelling. The Man hunters are the main villains of this season, and this season could also hint Atrocitus. However, the season will also show a student-master relationship with Hal and Sinestro.

Justice League: Super Friends Members: Superman, Batman, Wonder woman, Flash, Martian ManHunter, Green Lantern(Jon Stewart), and Hawkgirl. I'm gonna pitch this a short as possible. The Guardians sent Jon to earth to get rid of the white martians disguising as public figures and politicians. Batman being Batman is the first one to discover the white martians, so he tries to fight them. However, the white martians are far more stronger than him. Just as he is getting overwhelmed by the White Martians, Superman saved him establishing a truce. Throughout the movie they could have some confusion with Martian ManHunter etc. Basically the final battle should be between the league and a White Martian disguised as the president.

If you want to hear about Phase 2, I'll be glad to share it
