Thanks for starting this

For me, because its a DCEU board I think we should definitely have character/actor threads for the DCEU versions. Those are going to be the most active ones in general because they are the current versions we have in our minds. I think movie threads/tv threads for other DC versions can function as a place to talk about the other versions of these characters. Chris Reeves' Superman can be in the Superman Tetralogy thread, etc. It's inevitably going to happen that way anyway. Plus, we have the general discussion threads for that as well. I think there are a few threads right now open that are duplicates though... Like these two threads could probably be combined? http://www.fanforum.com/f497/general...orld-63197194/ http://www.fanforum.com/f497/other-d...-1-a-63197239/ __________________

I disagree about those two being combined because General DC is where we can talk about faves: fave adaption? Favorite character and favorite adaption? Plus the same for relations
Other dynamic is something like Team's like Suicide Team as a group and same with JL unless we are going to provide individual team threads Plus like Flag/June can be discussed in the thread unless we are gonna give them a thread. What about Flag and Katana Character threads are extremely tricky I can agree of having current DCEU actors in title but it's gonna be hard NOT to combine past adaptions with current It's why I feel we need to figure a flow out. There's a sizeable list of characters can list that have 3 different versions or more from adaptions __________________

Can we also maybe make that thread an "Other Characters and Dynamics" Thread? Thoughts on that? Quote:
If I want to talk just about Michael Keaton's Batman, I'm going to go to the Tim Burton movie threads and talk about him in the context of that series. If I want to talk about Batman in general, I would go to the DC general thread? Just my thought process on that. __________________

I already created other characters but will absolutely update the dynamics to be more clear tomorrow
I see and understand your POV and agree on putting DCEU actor names into the title I just sorta disagree on comparison where yes we have those franchise threads where in theory we could talk about say Keaton's version It's just me where TDK and Ben's could be compared especially where al others have been origins without playing the old man Bruce card like Ben's Then comparison alone of how Henry's is a much darker and different adaption of Superman compared to Chris Reeves that had the goofy Clark. Or even Smallvilles where he didn't even have suit until finale OR Dean's showing an already with Lois with being a married couple It's where I'm trying to figure flow process cause franchise threads could not be about the main character but just the whole. Like TDK has so much in depth related both Batman but villains|theme __________________

The only thing I feel pretty strongly about is having DCEU characters/actors together, because this is a DCEU board and they are the most recent versions and should have their own threads. Otherwise, I tend to lean towards the less threads the better. It's easier for discussion that way, otherwise I feel like I never know where to discuss anything and it makes conversation a lot less organic. I don't think Batman in general needs his own thread; I can talk about Batman generally from a comparison perspective in the General DC thread or in whatever movie thread is already made. Or talk about past versions of Lois in the Superman Tetralogy thread. __________________

Hope you haven't seen my original post cause this is an add in I'm going to watch Suicide Squad either some or all of it. Been a LONG day and I feel we need a 3rd or more person in this conversation. So I'll return in the morning after hopefully a goodnight sleep considering slept 7pm-midnight and been up without a nap plus group session therapy this afternoon
So I wanted to say Static Wave I like you - don't think we've really crossed paths other than a little on Gal BUT I really like you. I'm discussion driven and love how we have kept this civil plus respectful in here. We are respecting each other's opinions while trying to put this flow discussion|debate to rise Right now I think we have some of it sorted aka keeping DCEU characters with their actor names in titles. So I think we need more people to come into the discussion related to the rest So I'll check on the status tomorrow cause tired and want SS and a goodnight sleep Not really big on seeing combination of Other Characters and Dynamics together in a single thread I've always seen them separate - not opposed but further opinions from others like I know Tia later will come and add her two cents ITA on the keeping actor names in the threads of the characters that are involved with DCEU it is what is current and I do agree actor names I'm just trying to settle on how there's no way it will be kept to these DCEU versions alone. Yes we have our spaces of single threads for past franchises My thing is like I mentioned in Lex Luthor is I can list 3 movie versions related to Gene Gackman and Kevin Spacey plus the new one. Michael from SV was remarkable. Than not sure if Lex was in LnC. So if he was that's 5 plus CwTV could introduce Lex related to Lena and Lillian So for like Batman there's Keatan|Christian and Ben. Then Val and George plus the one from Gotham. Plus Chris Reeves|Dean Cain|Tom Wellings|Brandon Routh and Henry So just trying to determine how we are going to go forward on the flow of us there's current actors playing these characters. But so many of them have half a dozen or close too other adaptions. So in say Bruce's thread could be that we could bounce between any one of them or same with Clark or Lex or even Joker which i can think of 3 versions So I'm with you on making it actor to character of current BUT how do we want to make it look to new comers of our openness to say discuss ANY version current or pst adaptions __________________

My thought process, all the DCEU characters should have their own thread with their name on it because the board is mainly the DCEU board, even if I see this as my DC board that I always wanted, which was why before this board existed, I was going to create a Justice League campaign board. But that's besides the point. Quote:
Technically that was the plan, I just named it Christopher Reeve for people could know which movies it was. But it's a general discussion for the first 4 Superman movies. Quote:

To me, it's important that we concentrate on what we have now and make it work. It's still early days and still early to think of ways to develop the board. What we have already is so good. Why fix something if it isn't broken is my motto. However I do love your enthusiasm with ideas and ways to make the most of this board. __________________

Decided one more time to try to get my point across
Yes we have individual franchise threads where we can speak about those franchises and I'm excited to do that. Where we have little corners to pay tribute to all Past|Current|Future. My point is comparison regarding so many characters have so many adaptions __________________

I think it's going to be inevitable that at some point in any of these threads, you are going to compare versions of the same character. But I don't see that as an OT thing?
I still think of this as a DCEU board, so all the individual character threads should be DCEU related with the actor attached (including Joker/Lex Luther/etc). And the other general movie/show threads outside of DCEU can be places to talk about the characters in their specific DC movie/show threads + there is a DC general thread and a comparison thread and other dynamics thread. I think the way the board is structured right now works for me, but again, I'm only one poster. __________________

Mainly have said my peace and will let the discussion continue from hopefully other posters Tia will be the best one to get an opinion from because she will most likely understand my POV and where I'm coming from. If she agrees to leave it as is than we can just see what becomes
Some ideas for threads Quote:
Other Characters | Dynamics should be able to work related to other smaller related to DCEU Dream Cast seems the most part related to characters we WANT to see within DCEU which pretty much works for me I think the board structure is good with the DCEU characters having the actor names and each future movie getting their own thread plus I like our little franchise threads __________________

I do like the idea of a DC Animated [Cartoons|Movies] thread and a team thread for both the JL and the SS!
