Yeah, I liked Shazaam! too, and overall, would say I’ve enjoyed the DC movies / shows when they’ve been more standalone as opposed to trying to mesh with one another.
Birds of Prey is a movie I’m not ashamed to say I’ve watched more than once, and I also really liked Aquaman… up until the CGI wankfest that they felt they needed to add at the end.
Joker’s a great movie, and really doesn’t feel like a comic book movie at all.
TV-wise, I really like the Star Girl series on Amazon Prime, and how the characters are all different yet somehow familiar, and then BAM, Solomon Grundy.
And Doom Patrol continues to be one of my favourite things on TV, even if its effects budget can’t quite fulfil the show’s greater ambitions.
Titans also has some great standout moments, and Starfire is just yum.
And the only one of those that ties into the wider DCEU is Aquaman, and even that doesn’t try too hard.
