My shitty opinion
The Batman from mr Sparkle is actually the best place to restart DCEU, and these idiots are missing on that chance completely.

@LukeAlmighty honestly I thought it was good enough. I still vastly prefer Adam West Batman instead of emo Batman, and the Riddler being an incel was pretty weird.
I still think the best characterization of all the DC stuff I've ever seen is Teen Titans (the cartoon network cartoon). It balanced goofy antics with drama really well.
@LukeAlmighty I don't think DC needs some crazy universe like marvel does either. They shouldn't go chasing it because that was a lightning in a bottle situation and people are not ready to go through all of that again even if something really good came around. They should focus on getting some really good movies together for the time being that are completely separate concepts and see where it goes naturally. Them trying to chase marvel has been a major reason for their dwindling popularity and quality in Hollywood.

It was not a lightning in a bottle moment though. DC did the same thing already once. DCAU ran for 14 years, and did contain the best of the Superhero TV ever made.
I just want them to do it again... 
@beardalaxy
Also, death of Marvel was a lightning in a bottle.
They decided to kill off their roaster, during switching to streaming model, right after their momentum-killing movie, while pissing off their audience with politics, during a pandemic.
Man, that is one hell of a crash.
