Any change is a good change at this point I suppose.

So Batfleck has finessed his way into being a major controlling partner of the DC universe, given how close he is to Berg and Johns.

Still need to hear about Snyder not returning to direct the JL pt 2 for them.
Give him Lobo or something.
I don't see how Johns will have time for writing comics anymore let alone running a tight ship for Rebirth. This is a huge promotion from CCO.
Overall this sounds like good news that the execs over at WB are finally realizing **** needs to change, there needs to be a clear line of hierarchy in authority from informed individuals who know how to tell good stories.
Hopefully this ends up being a good thing.

Yea. Can't believe after everything Snyder has managed to survive exec wrath so far.
Impressive. He just might be harder to kill than Superman.

Geoff Johns needs to give us the Green Lantern film we deserve.

Geoff Johns has written some great stories, but he's a Hal homer. I want to see John flourish.
This is really good news for the Booster Gold film, because Johns loves Booster.

True, but at the same time I think he handles the Green Lantern Family better than he does the Flash Family. In both cases he is very clearly in love with the Silver Age, hence the focus on Hal Jordan and Barry Allen respectively. However, whereas with the Flash he pushed Wally West into limbo during his run, for GL he focused on Hal, but still always had Kyle, Guy, and John present during the majority of his events since they were of such a large scale. Not only did this see him introducing and developing new Gl's, but he still gave the old guard besides Hal their moments to shine. I think he'd do well with a Hal Jordan solo flick or a team-up GL picture. If you just want a solo John Stewart work though, or Kyle Rayner, or Guy Gardner, he probably has the talent to write them, but he wouldn't be my first pick since he's simply not as passionate about those characters as he is Hal.

We are getting a Green Lantern Corps movie. Hopefully Hal and John have equal shine in it. I hope they kill Heimdall off in the Thor movies, because String would be a great John Stewart.
It's about time WB/DC have done this though. They needed someone who's passionate about the characters and the comics like Feige is at Marvel Studios. Zack Snyder has never given off the impression that he cares about these characters like that.

I know and i'm saying that Johns would be the perfect guy to give us the version we deserve.

For sure. The fans definitely didn't deserve that last one. |I
Only thing they got right was Sinestro.

^ Because he's already directing JL1 and they're underway in production right now.
The expectation is that it'll be very similar to BvS.

If WB has shuffled their executive leadership to this degree after the BvS fallout then the assumption would be that they would take every step to ensure that JL1 does not turn out like BvS

DC Comics is in shambles anyways, they need some new blood to run it.

Overall I think the Geoff news is wonderful. That alone will make the DCEU that much better. I hope Snyder stats on as director for JL2. I have no issues with his direction.

Only good things can come from this move. All we talked about was someone who cared for the material to be in charge and looks like they made that move.
BvS sobered DCU up they know the money they missed out on at the box office and I'm confident Suicide Squad will get people back on board.

SS can possibly be the make-or-break one for DC.

If it's fun without excruciatingly bad or stupid plot points then i'll like it.

I liked so far that we don't know who the villain is gonna be for SS.

Cuz he isn't a good director and a big reason for why BvS was bad and underperformed.
It is not at all unlikely. All these moves to give other ppl more influence while keeping Snyder around is pointless. Cuz if it turns out bad again he'll probably be scapegoated.
I guess they'll wait until he's finished pt. 1.

legit question: was it the writing or the direction of the movie that was bad in your opinion?

Snyder needs to stay on the visuals/CGI and special effects only. He had his chance to show us he was a good director for the second time and came up short
