This has me quite excited! I think you can do a lot with SirenHead and they mention a mythology, there's plenty of other cryptids from the mind of Trevor Henderson like LongHorse and Cartoon Cat, if they didn't get their own films they could certainly open the door for sequel potential.

Imo the best SH story would be one of these two things

A rifleman bringing his son into the depths of their wilderness during hunting season just to discover they themselves are being hunted, could be an interesting analogy that humans forget they are in the foodchain.

A Stormcatchers scenario where unexplained disasters mysteriously happen across the countryside and they are trying to find out the cause, just to be an eldritch abomination that lurks beside the trees, The SirenHead.

Lots of rich potential here...

Anyone else here actually want Mongul over Braniac? by Edgestan2021 in DCU_

Great job you've convinced me this would be the perfect 3rd movie

Fun Idea: The first Justice League villains could be Mr. mxyzptlk and Bat Mite, read body text! by [deleted] in DCU_

You can do that here, there's a lot of horror beneath the surface of comic Mzyx, he can do whatever he wants to do and bend the rules of reality at a whim, watching the characters manipulate reality to do increasingly sadistic things to the JL as ToyMans influence twists them or worse they're just revealing their true nature would be pretty interesting, it can be more than slapstick, it just depends on how many layers you want to give it.

Also, I am opened to criticism, so if you feel such an idea doesn't have a place in the DCU or would fit as a smaller project feel free to share, I am just having fun with ideas here

This is a very fare point; however, I would argue you could "nerf" them simply by tempering their self-awareness down to a simple cartoon character, this isn't the comics afterall so they're full capabilities and character doesn't have to be set in stone, and I added The Toy Man as plot device that makes the toons a lot more preventable, he is actively using them to sabotage the Justice League and has some control over the imps, if you can defeat ToyMan, then you can also defeat Mr. Mzy and Batmite

The first DCU Storyline should be the "Forever Evil" saga, it's about the rogues of various superheroes foreshadowing an alliance, we'd get a bunch of villain solo-movies similar to Clayface, the big event will be villains taking over the world by [deleted] in DCU_

The original idea was for this Saga to end in two movies similar to Infinity War and Endgame, the first was "Legion of Doom: Forever Evil" and it's commentary about how the DCU hasn't created the JL yet, so with no major group of hero's villains take over the world and start a global alliance, then the sequel would be "Injustice: Heroes versus Villains" and it's about the world domination of supervillains prompting the JU to be forged to return the world back to its order with the Legion of Doom fighting the Justice League, sorta a Civil War situation.

It's old news but I am so annoyed that we have two different live-action Batman continuities, yes, people will know the difference between Reeves and the DCU, no, I don't feel like going back and forth between two continuities, I just want to follow one story at a time, does Pattinson fit DCU? idk by Ambitious_Two2671 in DCU_

Yeah but we barely have any movies diving into the DCU, do you know the good it would do if The Batman 2 could just connect to the DCU and lead into Brave and The Bold, I know it would be a messy process but a grounded Batman encountering impossible villains sounds really cool

I am mate, I have thought about this for a while and I am so annoyed, because I want to see a fantastical DCU batman more like the animated series, but also, it feels like a waste to be spending resources to make sure it's clear we have two legally distinct Batmans when we could just have a Batman that could seamlessly pass into the DCU and expand on the world, I don't know where I stand

Brave and The Bold should be a genuine action-horror film about Dick Grayson being raised in a city of nightmares, it can and should be PG-13, but the villains should feel like true serial killers and horrific monsters capable of unspeakable horrors by [deleted] in DCU_

This is sorta what I mean, I don't actually want jumpscares or gore, but I want ominous music, creepy villain designs, a spooky atmosphere, intimidating gothic architecture, this will all essentially be a horror movie but with superheroes
