Business Decision: The Failures of the DC Gunnverse 💰💰, Variety Review

The problem with being a sheep is swallowing, time and time again, narratives that don’t hold up on their own 🐑🐑. For example, do you know what Creature Commandos is? 🤔🤔 Well, I didn’t know either until recently, haha 😅😅 And it just reinforces—it convinces me even more—that the decision made by Skydance-Ellison to remove James Gunn from the helm is the right and healthy move for DC, since Gunn is completely lost as to what he wants to do and hasn’t managed to make an impact on society with his work, even if people want to claim otherwise (Rotten Tomatoes and reviewers, that’s on you 🐑🐑)

Creature Commandos is a perfect example—I haven’t even seen any reviews of it here in the community, and I’ve noticed that people here tend to like that universe, which I think lacks a lot of narrative quality. Its cornerstone, Superman 2025, is too weak and doesn’t hold up structurally—the previous Supergirl series proved that with its box office performance 🤔🤔

Believe me, I’m all for supporting the creative work of directors—let them “cook” it up, so to speak—but a corporation doesn’t invest just to lose money. So it comes down to business balance, and this is where I think James Gunn has failed the most 😵‍💫😵‍💫

El problema de ser una oveja es comer una y otra vez narrativas que no se sostienen por sí solas 🐑🐑, por ejemplo, sabes que es Creature Commandos? 🤔🤔, pues yo tampoco lo sabía hasta hace poco jaja 😅😅 y refuerza, me convence aun mas de que la decision tomada por Skydance-Ellison de quitar del mando a James Gunn es lo mas acertado y sano para DC ya que Gunn esta completamente perdido en lo que quiere hacer y no ha logrado impactar en la sociedad con sus productos aunque se quiera decir que sí (Rotten Tomatoes y reseñadores eso es con ustedes 😜😜)

Creature Commandos es un ejemplo perfecto ya que ni siquiera he visto reseñas de eso aqui en la comunidad y eso que he notado aqui tiende a gustar ese universo el cual considero le falta mucha calidad narrativa, su pilar llamado Superman 2025 es de anime y no sostiene la estructura, lo anterior Supergirl lo demostro con su taquilla 🤔🤔

Creanne que apoyo mas el trabajo creativo de los directores, que los dejen cocinar por decirlo así, pero una corporacion no invierte para perder dinero, entonces se trata de equilibrio empresarial, es en este punto donde James Gunn considero ha fracasado mas 😵‍💫😵‍💫

James Gunn was the head of DC—the manager, so to speak—so he had to put on the mask of hypocrisy in all its glory to practice a kind of diplomacy that would allow him to win over a sensitive fandom that was head over heels for a particular universe: Snyder’s 🥹🥹

To me, diplomacy and hypocrisy are exactly the same thing—I detest those concepts—but there’s no doubt that whoever practices them best has a high probability of gaining connections. And in this world of superhero movies, if you’re the manager, that’s exactly what James Gunn had to do to turn that into fans who’d pay to see what you want to show them—money 🤑 🤑

Instead, what he did was engage in a full-blown confrontation with a sector he even portrayed as monkeys in his Superman movie—metaphorically speaking. Someone like that can’t direct because you’re in that position to make the most of the fandom, not to divide it and generate less revenue for the company 😵😵

The man didn’t know how to handle the position with a velvet glove; rather, I think he sees it as a Trojan horse 🧐🧐

James Gun era la cabeza de DC, el gerente por decirlo así, entonces se debio poner la mascara de la hipocresia al mas full fulgor para ejercer una diplomacia que le permitiera conquistar un fandom sensible y que estaban enmorados de un Universo, el de Snyder 🥹🥹

Para mi Diplomacia e Hipocresia son exactamente lo mismo, como detesto esos conceptos pero es indudable que quien mejor los ejerza, tiene una alta probabilidad de ganar contactos y en este mundo de Super Heroes cinefilo, sí eres el Gerente pues eso es lo que tenías que hacer James Gunn para que se tradujera en Fans que paguen por ver lo que les quieres presentar, dinero 🤑 🤑

En cambio lo que hizo fue una confrontacion total con un sector que hasta coloco como monos en su film de Superman metaforicamente hablando, alguien así no puede dirigir porque estas en el cargo para aprovechar el maximo del fandom, no dividirlo y generar menos ingresos a la compañia 😵😵

El hombre no supo asumir el cargo con guante de seda, mas bien considero es un caballo de troya 🧐🧐

On a personal level, my biggest issue was the narrative quality across various productions, he just do a bad copys of Guardians of the Galaxy for DC 😑😑. Superman struck me as a weak and silly SuperYamcha who couldn't even get off the ground 😅😅, and Supergirl ended up paying the price for that narrative structure—in other words, Supergirl has many glaring flaws as a movie, such as lacking a villain, for example, but it inherits the narrative consequences of the negative impact Superman’s movie had on the fandom 🧐🧐

I loved James Gunn’s work on The Suicide Squad, but the man has way too much ego—which, combined with his confrontation with a fandom he was supposed to embrace rather than kick to the curb—meant his Universe couldn’t even get off to a smooth start with the basics… Your Fandom 🫠🫠

As for the general audience, the narrative quality issues I mentioned earlier play a role. I think Supergirl’s box office results are proof that this whole thing stinks of Floo—Skydance knows it, and deep down, you know it too, when you don’t even know what Creature Commando is or the narrative influence it had on Gunn’s DCU 🐑🐑

A nivel personal mi mayor conflicto fue la calidad narrativa en variados productos ya que el solo hace copias malas de Guardianes de la Galaxia para DC, Superman me parecio un SuperYamcha debilucho y bobo que no salia del suelo 😅😅, donde Supergirl pago los platos rotos de esa estructura narrativa, es decir, Supergirl tiene muchos defectos atroces como pelicula al carecer de villano por ejemplo pero hereda las consecuencias narrativas de la negativa influencia que dejo Superman con su pelicula en el fandom 🧐🧐

James Gunn me encanto su labor en The Suicide Squad pero el hombre tiene demasiado ego que sumado a la confrontacion con un fandom que se supone debia abrazar y no patear, hizo que su Universo no lograra empezar a olenitud con lo basico.... Tu Fandom 🫠🫠

Ya a nivel de audiencia general, influyen los aspectos de calidad narrativa que ya nombre, Supergirl pienso es quien delata con sus resultados en taquilla que esto apesta a Floo, Skydance lo sabe y tu en tu corazon tambien al ni siquiera saber que existe o que es Creature Commando y su influencia narrativa para el DCU de Gunn 🐑🐑

I dedicate each and every one of my posts and videos to my little dog named princess, we called her chiquito, she is no longer with us but from heaven she will see that her existence was valuable and the most beautiful thing that will exist in my heart and soul.
