The Conjuring really did have a major impact on WB lol. Going from one of its producers to another for DC.

Absolutely no one saw that coming at all...

I actually said months ago I’d like to see Gunn run DC cause of his knowledge of comics so I’m super pumped.

If James Gunn is on any non-DC projects, I assume he gives them up now b/c this will be a full time job...

animation? are they gonna try to bring caped crusader back to hbo max, lol?

wonder if gunn will try to find a way to get batgirl uncancelled

[keysersoze123]

I hope Gunn does not stop directing taking an exec role. Its too early for him to take a desk job.

It's definitely an improvement over the guy who wanted Supergirl replacing Superman and a geriatric Batman

#THEY are fuming with the news. We love to see it.

 

But DC fans have all loved the choices.

When you have a film that cost next to nothing that  was a blockbuster; you can bet it will have a impact on the studio.

I think the betting is he can bring out quality DC material without a huge budget.

I guess this will probably end Gunn's involement with Marvel Studios..he simply will not have the time with his new gig.

The report directily to Zaslev with out having to go through Warners Studios is huge and means a lot more indeprencence fot DC studios and puts them on a par with Marvel Studios in the company Table of Organization.

I think he's mentioned before that his GOTG journey was ending with Vol 3. And he had already mentioned doing multiple things with DC, so this was inevitable.

Win win, really. No more Marvel for him and the fanboys seems happy.  As for me, To quote the Anonymous WWE Source on CM Punk to AEW: “He’s your problem now.”

That is a given. He will have to fufill the contractual obligations he has, but after that it will be along time before he works with another studio.

I think Gunn was going to DC anyway, but I think his being made the head honcho was NOT inevitable.

DC needs a braintrust, ala Pixar. A group of people who can get involved in stories when needed, greenlight films, keep the universe running. But also people that can write entire films, direct films, etc etc.

 

Gunn would be perfect in that role. 

 

Oh weird.

Do I dare have a peek???
