To be fair to DC it's unfair to compare the two companies right now.
DC is obviously still in phase 1 where their solo movies are basically introducing their characters
Marvel is in that phase right now where even their 'solo' movies are going to touch on comic crossover events, ie. Civil War.
They're both on two different time lines with two different goals.
It's less about DC needing to compete and just trying to get their foot off the ground like Marvel did back in 2008
It's being rumored that the WW film will take place in the 20's
"We know there’s a Wonder Woman movie coming in 2017. We know it will star Gal Gadot in the lead, and she also appears in Batman Vs Superman: Dawn Of Justice.
But as of this date, we presumed it would be set in the modern day. Well, why wouldn’t we?
It’s not. I have been informed by those who have seen the greenlit treatment that the film will spends the first half on Paradise Island with warring Amazon factions vying for control.
An arrival of a man on the island changes that status quo, as he asks the Amazons for help. Not necessarily Steve Trevor either…
Because when Wonder Woman joins him on his return to the world of Man, we all discover that it is the 1920s. And the film will then show Diana exploring that world – a world where women have only just got the vote – from her… unique perspective.
A planned sequel would then take place during World War II in the thirties and forties. This of course was the period that the seventies TV show began in, before shifting to the then-modern day."
Casting For Supergirl Begins – What They Are Looking For
This will come as no big surprise, but the casting for the new Supergirl series for CBS is being done by the same company that cast Arrow and The Flash. Being that Greg Berlanti is involved, the choice seemed obvious. So what are they looking for? According to TVLine they are currently casting two parts – Kara Zor-El (Kara Danvers) and her older foster sister Alexandra “Alex” Danvers.
For Kara Zor-El aka Kara Danvers, the show is eyeing Caucasian females, age 22 to 26, to play 24. As the series’ mythology goes, Kara at age 12 was sent from her dying home planet of Krypton to Earth, where she was taken in by the Danvers, a foster family who taught her to be careful with her extraordinary powers. After repressing said skills for more than a decade, Kara is forced to bust out her super moves in public during an unexpected disaster. Energized by her heroism for the first time in her life, she begins embracing her abilities in the name of helping the people of her city, earning herself a super moniker along the way.
The other lead role currently being cast is that of 26-year-old Alexandra “Alex” Danvers, Kara’s gorgeous, brilliant, science-minded foster sister. Growing up, Alex was partly jealous of her sibling yet also fascinated by her abilities, prompting Alex to learn as much as she could about alien anthropology, sociology and culture. Today, Alex works for a secret government organization and, alongside her heroic sis, will face many challenges, both mundane and super.
Berlanti wrote the pilot script with Ali Adler (No Ordinary Family) and the two will executive produce the series along with Sarah Schechter.

Wow. This is an awesome idea for a WW story. I would watch! No sarcasm, either
The sequel should take place in modern day, imo

It's actually a series online for Static.I don't think we'll ever see Batman on tv ever, any version. Go peep Adam West for that.
ohh it's a tv series I didn't see that. Are we going to get a batman beyond film?
I am much more of a Marvel head than a DC head, but I would cry tears of joy for a Batman Beyond film.
Why DC doesn't think outside the box and pull stuff like that is beyond me.
