Don't know how much stock to place from an "anonymous" insider's take on the future of Marvel and DC, but to comment on some of his/her musings I would say that:  1) Marvel has a little more than "one final card" as they have the FF and their pantheon of characters (Doom and Galactus only should tide them over for a few years), 2) The actors of "Marvel's most iconic heroes are all out of the fold" but with the opening up of multiverse story lines there are ready-made explanations and precedent to introduce new versions of these characters, along with new multi-film plots.  

I do think that the increased content Disney demands does water down the product, no matter how much is spent on production values.  I also think they haven't fully explored (exploited?) the theatrical values of their present characters, whatever universe they might inhabit though I would have liked to see a couple more films with some of the current stars.  It just seems like due to the long production times to make these movies, they have to introduce newer characters (America Chavez, Illuminati, Kamala Khan, etc.) at the expense of fleshing out the more recognizable ones.  That or they're trying to be inclusive and/or appeal to the younger crowds.  The SA fan in me would rather see a sprawling Kree/Skrull war or a cosmic Surfer/Galactus storyline though.

 If DC can make spectacular movies with well written stories with their greatest characters they will absolutely destroy Marvel's awful lineup of Echo, the Marvels, and Agatha . 

“DC” and “spectacular movies” are mutually exclusive at this point. DC has not been able to figure out the obvious organic nature of the MCU and how people continually discuss movies and tv because they are mostly connected and encourage fan interaction, discussion, etc.

I think the DC universe came out flawed and all the reboot philosophy in the world cannot right their problems. It’s a fundamental issue, whether it’s too many chefs in the kitchen, or executives that don’t understand the marketing aspect of a large project - but DC will never recover from the inordinate amount of mistakes they have made. And I’m not a total MCU nerd, I see DC as a hugely missed opportunity. They will stumble along making money, but they will never create the lightning strike that the MCU did. And Marvel may indeed falter with the new lineups, but they did something special for 10 years that may never be replicated in its overall success.

Sadly, that's not a good plan overall. Capitalize on your iconic characters? Yes. Recast most of them? No.

Black Adam is not DC's Thanos. If Zaslav is that delusional, then this is no better than the old management's lack of direction. Darkseid has already been teased. Capitalize on the looming threat of your most iconic JL villain, WBD.

This dude z needs to talk to some actual DC fans  .. I thought they would of gone with darkseid to build into a epic movie…. Guess typical dc doesn’t know what they are doing currently…

Marvel is just cooler!Example Mark Grauenwold  the writer of The Squadron supreme series 1985 when he died he wanted some of he’s ashes pit in printers ink and they reprinted a copy of his run with his ashes! Plus The Boys are homage to this run!

If you leave before 30 minutes you can get a refund.  I have done this.  Spaceballs for one.

I'm with you on Spaceballs.  I've hated that movie since the day it came out.  I usually like Mel Brooks and loved Star Wars back then, but other than the "combing the desert" scene, I still haven't found anything funny or enjoyable about it.  I don't understand the love that movie still gets.

That said as a kid I thought other mel brooks were better, I still haven't seen all of them. History of the world had this five or six year old balling laughing and crying and saying that just ain't right. I tried men in tights as a twelve year old but that was idk. The Frankenstein saddles and others were classics.

Long story to say I hear you. Same with lampoon's airplane, I didn't think it near as funny as the naked guns but

Gal Wonder Woman on the way out?  Zero reference to Cavill's Superman?  Literally, the two highlights of the train wreck that's been the DCEU so far gone to waste.  

But he’s keeping Aquaman so you know his priorities are…
 

Hold up, did he say he’s only keeping Aquaman?

I never watched it after seeing Pizza the Hutt.  That was so unfunny that I couldn’t even be bothered with the rest of it.

To me, masterpieces of literal comedy, especially Airplane! and its sequel, the first Naked Gun, and the brilliant Police Squad!.

no it's not, it's Garth Ennis' hatred of superheroes. Go read Hitman or his Punisher run for more...

😁You are wrong the run is just like the boys superhero’s controlling earth like the government that run was first plus they show the death of a superhero at the end!
