Hi Karl
You said, "...Marvel got in their early with the style of their marvel films and because they've done it so well, it will be really hard for DC to get on level terms...". You know, I don't entirely agree with you because WB started to make block busting super hero films, such as Christopher Reeves Superman and Micheal Keaton's Batman, while Marvel was still trying to scratch out a living.
Where Marvel got it right, and WB/DC are struggling to come up with a coherent strategy, is that their writers are comic book writers, and so have a thorough understanding of their super hero properties and main villains, while WB/DC's whole objective is to bring in writers and directors when needed and, most importantly, who are show biz people that know very little, if anything, about the DC comic book characters, heroes and villains, they are directing and/or writing about.
Now, I write all this not because I am pro-Marvel, I used to read both Marvel and DC comics back in the day, but because the DC super hero films could be so much better but, I guess, when WB took over DC they did not employ the DC comic book talent. However, if you check out the names on the credits of Marvel's film and TV properties you will see the names of people that were originally involved in the production of Marvel comic books.
