Why? It's the first question

 A Twitter user named Neb tweeted:

someone should make a proper extensive timeline of the warner brothers DC drama, that period in december alone where the craziest gal gadot/henry cavill headlines were dropping like twice a day shouldn't be forgotten

Sure, that would be easy, but in my opinion the Warner Bros DC Drama began long before James Gunn and Mr. Zaslav. It began all the way back in 2012 after The Dark Knight Rises.  What will they think up next? Was the question in everyone's minds during those wild internet days. That's how we got the DCEU and their constant scrapping, and back and forth reboot or quasi reboots. 

11 years after Nolan's arc ended and 10 years after Man of Steel, what the hell happened? I'm gonna deep dive. I hope you read, and even if you don't read, that's ok. My passions are history and timelines.

We need to go to the beginning to understand the mess that became the DC cinematic universe aka Snyder verse aka DC films, aka DC Elsewhere.  Let's start. 2010: OCTOBER:   Deadline broke the news that Zack Snyder will be directing Man of Steel, the first Superman film since the failed Superman Returns in 2006 which starred Brandon Roth. Snyder would start rolling cameras as soon as he's done with his trippy male gaze fantasy film (sarcastically usi

Gospel 2; It's a bird, it's a plane, is it our Messiah?

 Our new Superman, gray with biblical/messiah allegories, is finally hitting the big screen. The first trailer was so good that it made grown men cry. (I'm not being sarcastic.) 2012: JULY: Hollywood Reporter said, “one fan was literally brought to tears after seeing it, reduced to a blubbering mess as he said how much he loved it.”  Here's that famous trailer: The egos started to grow. For Snyder, him directing The Man of steel is the best thing since slice bread that could happen to the character. “We had to act as if no film has been made. When we approached it, we had to say, ‘this is Superman for the first time,'” Snyder said to Hollywood reporter. “And you can’t say, ‘Oh, now let’s steal a little music.’ So yes, it’s awesome music, but Hans (Zimmer) is going to do something awesome.” Easy there, tiger! The film is not even out yet.     But then… came the early reviews. 2013: JUNE: Two days before the release, IndieWire compiled the early reviews, and you
