Nah, the best bond film is that bit where Jane Bond breaks into the US President's underground bunker.

Nah, the best bond film is actually a James St. John Smythe film.

Zatanna, Constantine, Swamp Thing and Detective Chimp setting up Justice League Dark. Nah, leave constantine and Swamp Thing as their own, standalone thing. Chuck in animal man, too. And get Del Toro to finish Death; The High Cost of Living. Basically, bring back Vertigo as a movie studio, idiots.

Er, wow. Pretty much everything he just said sounds kind of awesome. Hold me.
EDIT: Except, ironically, for the things already finished or in production

Some exciting stuff in there. Seems to ‘get it’.
Authority as part of the main DCU is slightly odd although they have crossed over, but all of the Authority are quite clearly supposed to represent various DC characters so yeah, but strange. Could be brilliant though, the old Authority comics are great and will make really good films. They’re very cinematic.
Supergirl film sounds cool and yay, Swamp Thing.

All sounds good apart from the still using Flash to reboot it all.
In this post me too age using a cultist, serial offending sexual abuser and kidnapper as your tentpole release seems a little off.

So The Batman possibly only 2 films now instead of a trilogy?

Lanterns in the style of True Detective - now that's a helluva mix.

Yeah I’m the same - the original Authority was great, but is the world ready for Batman and Superman as lovers?

It's also kinda crazy that it's taken this long to find some sense of direction just as we're at superhero saturation point.

I'm with everyone else who's broadly excited by all that.
Incidentally, the Authority characters have been part of the mainline DCU since the New 52 (unless they've been shoved into their own universe again by another reboot). Midnighter had quite a funny thing going with Nightwing for a while, where they'd butt heads and argue about heroism but also Midnighter clearly fancied him.

I don't know most of the comics, so I'm just going on first impressions, but it all sounds a bit Snyderverse to me. As in, going for the more gritty side. (The Authority, Gritty Supergirl, GoT WW Island, Gritty Robin, etc...) I guess it'll differentiate them from Marvel, but it doesn't seem to be playing to Gunn's strengths.
A lot is going to rest on pulling off that first Superman movie in an interesting way, something that hasn't seemed that easy in the past.
If it ends up as Superman & Co vs The Authority that sounds very Kingdom Come to me.
WW Prequel series sounds weird, but maybe it's based on good comics?
The fact that they're making 2 separate Batman franchises, and apparently 2 separate Superman movies in parallel seems very odd.

Just wait until you find out what kind of music Superman likes to listen to! It's the same as what James Gunn likes to listen to

Nah, Joker likes Glitter. But Clark likes a bit of Lostprophets when he's feeling fragile. Batman is definitely into nu-metal.

Booster Gold as a series?!
The only thing I know about the character comes from an awful Smallville episode that made question why the fuck this existed.
Suppose it could be interesting...or shit.

Booster Gold is a great character and I'd hope the series was more She-Hulk than Moon Knight, if that makes sense.
I know they've already got a Blue Beetle movie in the works but I hope the Booster show brings in Ted Kord so we can replicate their humorous JLI double act.
