“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” she added. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to fucking want to see those.”

Honestly the DC animated movies are mostly great. Not high art or amazing, but fun superhero films.

My guess is that the animated department has way less oversight

Harley Quinn is excellent, too. Snarky & queer!

The only main DC movie I'd recommend is The Flash tbh. My expectations weren't high, but it's better than most of the other shit from the last few years of self-indulgent superhero rubbish.

That and James Gunn movies are pretty much all that's worth your time.
