Warner Bros. and DC in Talks

July 11th, 2008 in The Movie Biz -

dc-logo Variety reports that Warner Bros. Pictures is holding new meetings with DC Comics to discuss a new direction for its film adaptations. Recent DC films have done well – Batman and Superman come to mind – but many of its projects are stuck in limbo, including the Wonder Woman and Flash projects.

It is assumed that DC and Warner are feeling the pressure of the success Marvel Studios has been having with its many film adaptations. Here’s a statement released by WB:

"While we are not going to go into the specifics of the meetings, we’re constantly looking at how best to exploit the DC Comics characters and properties. DC is an incredibly valuable asset to Warner Bros. and plays an important role across the entire studio by providing development and franchise opportunities for all media, including films, television, home entertainment, animation, consumer products, video games and digital platforms."

What do you guys think? Just how much should DC ramp up its movie production abilities?
