DC Making Moves

Hot on the heels of Marvel's huge announcement, DC decides to shake things up a bit. Warner Brothers, DC's owner, has decided to restructure DC Comics into a new corporation called DC Entertainment Inc. What this means is that, DC is no longer an outsider in the development of some of its franchises as TV shows and movies. Now, DC will play an active role, much like Marvel Entertainment did with Iron Man, Hulk, and all the upcoming Avengers movies. It's about darn time.

Warner Bros. and DC have been together for a good while now, but have never seemed to work together. Warner Bros. has always left the comics publisher in a little corner to do its own thing, much like a a new mom would do her embarrassing step son. Now, they are putting their resources together to maximize the potential of some of DC's better characters.

With Warner Bros. now fully backing DC, not only will we get movies more faithful to the comics, but we'll also be getting more movies. Before, films were so hard to get made because rights were divided up between multiple producers and companies, a lot of which had no idea about the origins of the characters. DC Entertainment now controls what comics will be getting the movie treatment and how to go about it. So, a new Superman movie and a Wonder Woman movie are most likely going to be made soon, along with some of DC's other more popular characters.
