Great news coming from Geoff Johns and Jon Berg, the new heads of the DC slates of films. They recognize that the in the past the films were produced much differently than they should have been.

Johns is quoted in The Wall Street Journal as saying

I think the studio has said, ‘Oh, DC films are gritty and dark and that’s what makes them different.’ That couldn’t be more wrong…

He went on to say that

It’s a hopeful and optimistic view of life. Even Batman has a glimmer of that in him. If he didn’t think he’d make tomorrow better, he’d stop.

Just these words alone bring me a glimmer of hope that we might yet see a great movie within the DC Expanded Universe.
