DC Cinematic Universe

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As per WP:NFF, and only one film (Man of Steel) in the franchise has released. None of the upcoming films mentioned in the article (except Dawn of Justice) have yet entered principal photography. Kailash29792 (talk) 05:58, 14 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete: Redirect to List of films based on DC Comics: There is not enough notable information to warrant this article. As well, this name has not even been used by DC or Warner Bros. (unlike Marvel who has explicitly stated the name of their film universe) to describe a potential film universe. All we've gotten is that Man of Steel and Batman V Superman exist in the same universe and DC has other potential films in development. This all based on assumptions, WP:OR and WP:SYNTH that this universe will continue. Everyone thought that Green Lantern (film) would be the start of DC's film universe and look where that got us. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 13:18, 14 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of films based on DC Comics: One released film does not constitute a series of films or a shared universe. The article is based on the assumption that other films will join Man of Steel in the future. Although it is likely, WP:NFF states "The assumption should also not be made that because a film is likely to be a high-profile release it will be immune to setbacks—there is no 'sure thing' production." Even with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in production, it has already had it's share of setbacks. There is also a fair amount of WP:SYNTHESIS claiming that the listed future films will be apart of the DC Cinematic Universe without a single reliable sources making this claim directly.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 14:24, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
