A movie failed... You understand that not all cancelations are part of "cancel culture"... In fact, I am beginning to think "cancel culture" does not even really exist.
Marvel is doing great things. It is extremely successful, feeding on its own success. Meanwhile, DC is failing or maybe just being mediocre, which seems like failure compared to Marvel. How can a universe with Superman and Batman be only mediocre? It blows the mind.
Part of the problem is they let their director get out of control. Marvel has each movie, and TV series feed into a greater universe. That does mean that every director has to fit his piece into a bigger puzzle, so has less control.
I could go on, but none of it is about being "woke." If anything, the Marvel directors are more woke than the DC directors... I am thinking of Joss Whedon.. Whedon is very talented, but he is also very creepy.
