Arrow WB Open Letter from Former Employee

Not sure how legitimate this is but it has me worried for Wonder Woman.

Well, that certainly lines up with what we've seen from WB so far, and not just the CBM.

WW unfortunately may not make it in under the wire, being that it's been in production for a bit, but here's hoping they pull it off. We won't really know until the credits roll on it though because SS looked really great from the trailer, but the end result was mediocre.

I hope it's legit because it all makes perfect sense and screams what fans have been screaming.

If she does have the inside scoop on WW, then I guess I'll find out after the movies. Because I can honestly say this -- WW has not made me doubt it once. The trailer looks amazing. WW was the only redeeming point of BvS (for me at least). And I'll eat my words, Gal Gadot, from what we've gotten is a great WW. Her appearance will never be my ideal Diana, but she brings a beautiful and strong presence to the screen and that's all I can ask for!

I can not say the same for both BvS and Suicide Squad. I was VERY skeptical to pay money to see those based off trailers. But I gave SS a shot after BvS because I thought, these are baddies, maybe they will be more fun (despite me hating the look of Leto's Joker). Damn, was I wrong.

Meh. I stopped reading the letter after the first paragraph.

"When I left my screening of Suicide Squad last week, I was angry. I was annoyed and let down and frustrated as well, but mostly I was just angry."

Anyone who takes this stuff that personally loses credibility in my book. It's a movie. Relax. Your life will go on. I promise.

I have liked the DC movies. Just not as much as the Marvel movies. I don't feel the need to get salty about it.

But her point was people are being fired over these terrible decisions yet nothing changes. If it's true, she knows more heads will roll as WB fails in these comic movies. Which IS pretty crappy while certain producers and directors get to make more crap movies.

At least HP is a functional cash cow for them!

The article explains why it was more than just a movie to her. As a former employee, a bad movie could drastically affect her career.

Again, this is her career, not just some frivolous form of entertainment.
