    How I Would Have Written Batman v Superman

    After turning Green Kryptonite red, Lex Luthor sets a trap to poison Superman with it, causing him to act out in strangely aggressive ways. Forensic scientist Barry Allen from Central City is brought in by Silas Stone in Metropolis to figure out what's going on. While working late, a bolt of lightning strikes Allen, turning him into Flash. Riddler kidnaps Martha Kent and frames Batman, hoping Superman will kill him in this state. However, Lex secretly allows Batman to steal Green Kryptonite from him, knowing he'll kill Superman if absolutely necessary. Martian Manhunter tries to help, but Superman nearly kills him.

  • Where The DCEU Could Have Been: Aquaman - 2014

    How I Would Have Written Aquaman

    Arthur Curry is the son of the Queen of Atlantis and a human who was trained by Vulko since youth to use his superhuman abilities. He now saves people from pirates and the ocean. When Mera asks him to stop his brother Orm from waging war on the surface, he reluctantly agrees to take the journey with Mera to retrieve Poseidon's trident, originally given to Atlan by Poseidon himself. His former pirate enemy becomes Black Manta with Ocean Master's help and attacks him during his quest. However, Aquaman is still able to retrieve the Trident and defeats Ocean Master. This keeps him from uniting Atlantis to fight the surface, and Arthur Curry becomes King of Atlantis.

  • Where The DCEU Could Have Been: The Batman - 2014

    Here's how I would have done The Batman to fit in the DCEU

    Bruce Wayne is a billionaire who's parents were killed when he was young and returns to Gotham after a five-year hiatus where he trained with the League of Shadows. Oswald Cobblepot, aka Penguin runs a illegal club that caters to corrupt officials, like DA Harvey Dent. He uses this and his Red Triangle Mob to curry political favors and run for mayor. When Wayne learns his company's funding the campaign, he fights the corruption as Batman. Shortly after, the mysterious Riddler starts killing corrupt officials and kidnaps Dent, who had his brother killed. Chief Jim Gordon & forensic scientist Patrick Parker work with Batman to decipher Riddler's clues. Batman tries to question Penguin but his Gang saves him, so Batman kidnaps member Dick Grayson and trains him as Robin for info. Riddler burns Dent's face half off on and calls him "Two-Faced" on TV. Batman cracks his code and saves Dent but realizes Dent's going to kill corrupt officials at his private gala for abandoning him. Dent flips a coin and kills Penguin but Batman & Robin stop him before more deaths occur.

  • Where The DCEU Could Have Been: Man of Steel - 2013
    On the countdown to Flash coming in June, I'm talking about where the DCEU could have been in 2023 had they taken their time like the MCU did! Here's how I would have wrote Man Of Steel.
    Kal'el was an alien sent to Earth as his planet Krypton was decimated. He grows up on Earth as Clark Kent and falls in love with Lois Lane. He's forced into action when General Zod escapes the Phantom Zone with plans to decimate Earth by turning the Sun red and restoring Krypton. Martian Manhunter shows up seemingly out of nowhere to help fight the Kryptonians. The D.E.O., Superman and Martian Manhunter come together to stop Zod from using the Codex and his World Engines to turn Earth into Krypton. Unsure how to stop Zod, Superman contemplates killing him, but Martian Manhunter comes up with the idea to put him in a Red Sun Cell to eliminate his powers. Superman says Martian Manhunter is the powerful being on this planet and responds saying the "Age of Heroes" has begun. Manhunter turns back into Henshaw when a private tells him there's a pod by Zod's ship.
    End credits: A group of lawyers help Zod make bail and he's brought to a Lexcorp Yacht. Lex asks him what he is. Zod says, A God, and Lex says they don't need Gods and shoots him with a Kryptonite bullet.

    Superman - Henry Cavill
    Lois Lane - Amy Adams
