The fact that WB were stupid enough to fire an innocent Johnny Depp from Fantastic Beasts. And kept a guilty Ezra Miller and Amber Heard in the DCEU makes me sick.
@@Person-wz6iy While Marvel/Disney are almost too quick to axe a talent after allegations come out, it is a stark contrast to WB seeming to encourage their talent while shielding them from criticism
The Batgirl one honestly makes me so sad. Not only because of the dark and disturbing implications of it being deleted, but also they could've easily rebranded it as a DC Elseworlds labeled film, and reworked to be set in the Burton/Schumacherverse after Batman Forever (ignoring Batman and Robin) and reshot JK Simmons scenes. Oh well, here's hoping Leslie Grace returns as Batgirl in James Gunns DCU. Also, thank Dwayne Johnsons Black Adam centric plans for the DCEU never happened.
In Blue Beetle, there was a cut line of dialogue referencing "Supergirl of Metropolis." So blue beetle would've continued the Flashpoint DCEU It was changed to Superman Also for SS2 Not only would black adam be the main protagonist, Supergirl would be as well under magical mind control As part of a cult of black adam sacrificing young girls.
As a DC fan, this video upset me because it was just a full 2 hours of showing how WB was like “Hey you know that character that fans love that we just announced is gonna get a movie/ TV show? WE DONT!” *Cancelled*. WB is such a joke. Still loved the video Pigpen. Keep up the great work
@@who-ny5oe hot take I’m kinda glad they didn’t do the synder verse yes it’s sad with what happened also he sais in this video that the synder verse is not going to happen
With this video I found out that Blue Beetle was part of the DCEU. I legit thought that movie was made for a separate continuity just like The Batman or Joker were.
I'll be honest, the fact that you know your next iceberg won't do good but you WANT to make it for you and your audience makes me feel mad respect for you! Keep up the good work! This was a nice tribute to this messy cinematic universe
44:52 The idea of using audio from the cut bathroom scene from Joker immediately followed by Teen Titans Go Beast Boy saying “Waffles waffles waffles” would have been the funniest tonal whiplash in the history of tv shows.
Of the characters introduced in the comics, the Man of Steel prequel comic had Supergirl, as just Kara Zor-El, introduced in it. Although unlike the Supergirl we saw in the Flash, she isn't Superman's cousin, as the story she's in takes place thousands of years in the past. I think said comic had the Kryptonian ship on Earth and the open pod, but I'm not sure if it's what spawned the Supergirl theory. Also, weird coincidence how there have been 2 entries to cap off DC icebergs, involving the SA of Wonder Woman and Amazonians. Just shows how some people in both DC and WB, shouldn't be trusted with these characters.
The context as to why WBD wanted the Bruce Wayne cameo at the end of Aquaman 2, is apparently because they wanted Keaton-Batman to serve the same role in the Post-Flash DCEU, that Nick Fury does in the MCU.
As a long time fan I gotta say. I love the moments like saying suicide. Where you can’t say the word suicide because of UA-cam rules. So you come up with creative work arounds.
Damn, you could make an entire iceberg just from the cancelled projects. That’s how many of them there are LMAO. RIP the DCEU, 2013 - 2023 (technically 2024 if you count that tie in comic)
something interesting about Aquaman 2 and it's $430 million box office number is that it's actually the highest box office a DCEU movie has seen since Aquaman 1 in 2018
The thing is that the "Lex Luthor Jr." thing isn't entirely consistent. Im pretty sure at one point in BVS you can see a newspaper that mentions "Lex Luthor's father, Lionel Luthor"
I hate that most part of the entries are "This movie/series was announced/in development, but it was cancelled". Don't get me wrong, that's not a problem with the iceberg or the video, but is so sad to know that so many opportunities were lost and wasted because of WB 😢
its insane how it was all there.. all the characters, all the movies.. but it all became a jumble disconnected mess that left fans so confused to even try to care
It’s quite strange that I couldn’t care less about Black Adam when that Movie was in theatres, but am now super fascinated by it. It’s an interesting chapter of Movie Drama and an almost-Shakespearean lesson against Ego. Although I am actually kinda curious where the “Black Adam-Centred DCEU” was going to go, i think it’s best it failed, as the Rock needed an ego check and see you can’t just screw over other films like Shazam 2 for his own selfish purposes. And in spite of his constant media-push for the Black Adam Movie and character in general, when the movie came out in theatres, I had NO IDEA who Black Adam was, I didn’t even know it was a DCEU Film! I thought it was a completely separate and random superhero film. With that said, the Rocks overconfidence was very funny and memeable. “Rest in Peace the Queen, a great woman who lead the country longer than anyone before. Too bad she never got to see # BlackAdam in Theatres October 21st 🌎”
Snyder's vision for the DCEU was god awful, and it sounds like what we got was not the worse of it. my goodness. we dodged a bullet by cancelling the DCEU.
And in spite of ‘all that’ lots of people still loved it. Not only that, but the scripts for his original versions of JL 2 and 3 are noticeably outdated. In ZS JL there’s a hinted at romance between Batman and Wonder Woman which is a comic book classic pairing next to WW and Superman. So the “Lois Lane X Bruce Wayne” thing was likely dropped. Regardless i firmly believe if the original version of Justice League released, it would have been received much better than BvS.
@@jakespacepiratee3740 A minority of people loved it. Snyder fan are not "lots" of people the majority of people breathed a sigh of relief Snyder was not disrespecting the IP they grew up with anymore. good riddance to piss-poor content. WW and Batman hinting at a romance is nothing when Batman is literally killing people. You're not a Batman fan if you think that was okay. Snyder's work is just spectacle and no substance. and he has continued his garbage content creation with Star wars ripoff films and its not been doing great.
@@eingoluq Right, so first you do False Populism (look it up) just because he made interpretations of characters you didn’t like, doesn’t make it intentional disrespect. These are fictional characters we are talking about. There are literally alternate-universe versions of Batman (and his Dad) who kill ppl. Plus, nearly everyone does this in the MCU so i don’t get the problem. However, i think the version of Batfleck fits better as a Red Hood character! There are plenty of non-Snyder people who aren’t excited for the DCU, it’s likely going to be just the MCU, but with DC characters. And frankly I’m not excited to hear Batman say “well that happened” and Flash make constant pop culture references. Public opinion on the MCU is declining fast, the DCU couldn’t be made at the worst time.
@@jakespacepiratee3740 lol, False Populism? Your lack of self wawwareness is hilarious. YOU were the one saying that lots of people liked Snyder's DCEU film. (evidence to the contrary) dude the DCEU is a dumpster fire and crash snd burned. you just cant get over the fact that his movies, which you liked are trash and everybody not only hated his films and what he did to popular characters but also everybody is glad snyder is not involved anymore.
@@eingoluq I’ve seen people who have never liked something from Snyder before say they liked his version of Justice League…so yes it was a big success. Appealing to your inherent audience is easy but appealing to much more than that is hard. I guess I’m not “everybody” am I not a body? Cuz I liked them. So yes, False Populism. You’re just being deeply resentful and unfair because Snyder “besmirched” the “honor” of fictional characters. 🤷♀️
This is very cool. Was more interested in the DCEU than the MCU and more of a DC fan over all so this is cool. Love your icebergs man. Very educational lol
The amount of time and effort Pigpen puts into these is worth a like and subscribe. I’m proud to say I’ve been a fan since the Transformers Iceberg (insane to think that’s 3 years ago)
@@thatoneantoid51 eh I preferred the more serious tone of the DCEU. Personally I am so tired of every character in the MCU being reduced to jokers and jesters trying to make as many lamé jokes within a 6 second timeframe
There was also an audio drama that was released with The Flash, titled The Flash: Escape the Midnight Circus, which apparently takes place after the movie, in the new timeline. Assuming Aquaman 2 takes place before the timeline reset in The Flash, it technically makes the audio drama the last DCEU story chronologically.
Jimmy Olsen was truly treated dirty in the DCEU, they could’ve just made him a background character for comic book nerds then needing to kill him off.🐱
I’ve watched the interview where he’s talking about the Kryptonian Ship, it’s an interview with several people talking over each other, that’s why it sounds strange in quotes.
I just wanted to say I appreciate your videos a lot and I like how tou edit your videos. I been here for awhile and always enjoyed these. Excited for this one
It's a bummer for him personally. Affleck said being Batman was a childhood dream. but between fan reaction, executive meddling, and a messy divorce in his personal life he got to live that dream...at the time his life was a living nightmare.
This franchise needs to be studied I always thought that WB was trying too hard to catch up to marvel instead of create their own universe which inherently tanked most the projects that came out, it’s really unfortunate because for me DC has way more compelling characters and stories but ig now maybe we’ll get to see what james gunn has in store 🤷🏾♂️
black adam was the movie that hurt me the most out of the dceu. I had such how hopes for a darker take of an anti hero or villain story. There are many things i can see and pick out which would of made it a better movie. It now may be years till we get a new black adam appearance.
The damage done to WB from sabotaging this universe is massive. 30 minutes removed from BvS and it resulted in all this. A good reminder that you need to give people a fair chance
Is there a Green Lantern iceberg coming perhaps? Since Flash got a one i hope GL ones coming soon (both are as popular id say " and GL fans could use finally some good content celebratinf a whole franchise Just like u did Superman or WW for example. Love your vids btw! You're easily the goat of iceberg vids! ✌️
i always thought the dceu was scrapped due to bombing movies but after seeing this endless rabbit hole of cancelled movies and delayed projects and unfinished ideas and whatever the fuck else i'm surprised this lasted for as long as it did, ive never seen this much development hell surround a single franchise oh my god
12:20 I'm so glad this got canned. What is with the DCEU foisting everyone else's stories on the Big Three? Superman stealing Black Adam from Billy Batson _and_ Batman stealing Deathstroke's vendetta from Nightwing?
12:04 I legit slammed the table as soon as I heard deathstroke was gonna be in the movie, one of my favourite dc characters and yet didn’t get a chance to show up
"I have this idea for a film involving one of our tentpole superheroes and we can fill some of the supporting character roster with characters from the comic books." "Great idea. Solid. One suggestion: GIVE THOSE CHARACTERS THEIR OWN FILMS! YOU'RE GREENLIT! ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!" "Uh, that's spreading ourselves a bit thin. If those B-List supporting characters get their own films then they are going to need their own supporting characters from the C-List-" "Great idea. NOW GIVE THOSE SUPPORTING SUPPORTING CHARACTERS THEIR OWN FILM! YOU'RE GREENLIT! ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS" "Uh....fuck it." -DC/WB, I presume
I really hope the next one is daredevil!! I’m so excited for all the potential icebergs. Otherwise we are gonna have icebergs entries of unfinished icebergs haha
I found your channel about a week ago and I’ve already watched about half of them so when I clicked this one I thought I was watching an older one so when I saw few hours ago I went … nice
Well, I learned some things after watching this video 1). This video is good, I did like your sense of humour 2). Warner didn't have any kind of path with the universe, unlike Marvel who got a established path of what they wanted to show to people, Warner didn't have this and they started announcing projects without the certitude that theses projects could've been done, 3), warner is such a bad company, they fear success, because they got amazing projects but they rejected them because they were afraid of losing money instead of watching what people wanted. That's it, this universe could've something good, something different than Marvel, but the constant changes and the fact that they took control instead of letting the directors to share their projects kill this universe. Once again, nice video
I will say my favorite entry is the scrapped justice league trilogy plans cause it has the batman and lois lanes son becoming the new batman (which i asked about on twitter lol)
57:43 i remember getting a BVS comic book by a cereal box when i was younger it was cool but the comic i got always confused me was it canon or not due to having random halo looking aliens attack the city I don't know if anyone else also remeber that one too
So essentially what im hearing here is that the downfall of the dceu was due to warner bros being warner bros and interfering too much in the development of these movies(i pray that the dcu succeds dude, being a dc fan iver marvel it'll be good to see some dc amongst all this marvel)
Now I don’t want it to end for a long time but imagine if PigPen or someone else made a huge MCU iceberg video covering all of the behind the scenes info like this video, but only after the MCU has its last official movie/series
You mentioned how there was only one novel (that aren't novelizations) part of the MCU which is incorrect as there's 3 (I believe 3) Captain Marvel novels telling Carol's experience before the movie. They're rather unknown so it's no problem they went under the radar but I thought it was worth mentioning.
This video and the behind scenes chaos is more entertaining than the actual DCEU! Its a shame because they had some good castings and on paper, great stories!

Due to the 2011 green lantern film not being recieved well. Ofcourse he had to be put in the back burner
@@lawrencelord9777The Animated Movies were cool do
@@lewisainoI’d actually argue the animated movies were even more inaccurate.
Green lantern the animated series was fun. It also delved in to the other lanterns like the red, blue and orange lanterns.
No but seriously
HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING A CINEMATIC DC UNIVERSE AND *NOT* HAVE GREEN FUCKING LANTERN?!
Of course the DCEU Batman would have merch, he’s all about branding
Captain America is my favorite superhero, i would love an iceberg about him and his side of the Marvel universe
Him treating Jimmy Olsen as a domino is hilarious. It’s almost worse than not giving a shit lol
44:52 The idea of using audio from the cut bathroom scene from Joker immediately followed by Teen Titans Go Beast Boy saying “Waffles waffles waffles” would have been the funniest tonal whiplash in the history of tv shows.
OPRAH? OPRAH AS AMANDA WALLER?
So many choices in that segment made my head spin, but that one had me flat out pausing the video to think.
For me, it was Emma Watson as Harley Quinn 😂 I was like "...wat...?!"
Strange confused and entertaining is a great way to describe this universe
Of the characters introduced in the comics, the Man of Steel prequel comic had Supergirl, as just Kara Zor-El, introduced in it. Although unlike the Supergirl we saw in the Flash, she isn't Superman's cousin, as the story she's in takes place thousands of years in the past. I think said comic had the Kryptonian ship on Earth and the open pod, but I'm not sure if it's what spawned the Supergirl theory.
Also, weird coincidence how there have been 2 entries to cap off DC icebergs, involving the SA of Wonder Woman and Amazonians. Just shows how some people in both DC and WB, shouldn't be trusted with these characters.
This almost makes me want to eat a cockroach burger because I'm just born to be wild like that
Nevermind, most of this iceberg is depressing
somewhere in some weird and quirky timeline Ryan Gosling became the Joker he would've become into yet another Internet Sexyman
The context as to why WBD wanted the Bruce Wayne cameo at the end of Aquaman 2, is apparently because they wanted Keaton-Batman to serve the same role in the Post-Flash DCEU, that Nick Fury does in the MCU.
So much potential, wasted but I'll always remember the good times
What good times? 💀💀
😂@@corazonenalmibar
As a long time fan I gotta say. I love the moments like saying suicide. Where you can’t say the word suicide because of UA-cam rules. So you come up with creative work arounds.
Damn, you could make an entire iceberg just from the cancelled projects. That’s how many of them there are LMAO.
RIP the DCEU, 2013 - 2023 (technically 2024 if you count that tie in comic)
something interesting about Aquaman 2 and it's $430 million box office number is that it's actually the highest box office a DCEU movie has seen since Aquaman 1 in 2018
Unfortunately for the Warners and their trained lemmings, a good figure is a billion dollars.
Very excited for a Captain America Iceberg! Love your videos, I listen to them on my night shift job.
It's so criminal that we don't have a Static Shock Movie. I loved the series so much as a kid. And I looked up to the series and the morals it shares.
The thing is that the "Lex Luthor Jr." thing isn't entirely consistent. Im pretty sure at one point in BVS you can see a newspaper that mentions "Lex Luthor's father, Lionel Luthor"
I guess his mom could of been called Alex, that way he's technically Lex Luthor junior
I hate that most part of the entries are "This movie/series was announced/in development, but it was cancelled". Don't get me wrong, that's not a problem with the iceberg or the video, but is so sad to know that so many opportunities were lost and wasted because of WB 😢
its insane how it was all there.. all the characters, all the movies.. but it all became a jumble disconnected mess that left fans so confused to even try to care
The Black Adam drama was such a fun time. HIERARCHY
It’s quite strange that I couldn’t care less about Black Adam when that Movie was in theatres, but am now super fascinated by it. It’s an interesting chapter of Movie Drama and an almost-Shakespearean lesson against Ego. Although I am actually kinda curious where the “Black Adam-Centred DCEU” was going to go, i think it’s best it failed, as the Rock needed an ego check and see you can’t just screw over other films like Shazam 2 for his own selfish purposes. And in spite of his constant media-push for the Black Adam Movie and character in general, when the movie came out in theatres, I had NO IDEA who Black Adam was, I didn’t even know it was a DCEU Film! I thought it was a completely separate and random superhero film.
With that said, the Rocks overconfidence was very funny and memeable. “Rest in Peace the Queen, a great woman who lead the country longer than anyone before. Too bad she never got to see # BlackAdam in Theatres October 21st 🌎”

I hope people stay active and give you all the support! I love these icebergs!
Snyder's vision for the DCEU was god awful, and it sounds like what we got was not the worse of it. my goodness. we dodged a bullet by cancelling the DCEU.
And in spite of ‘all that’ lots of people still loved it. Not only that, but the scripts for his original versions of JL 2 and 3 are noticeably outdated. In ZS JL there’s a hinted at romance between Batman and Wonder Woman which is a comic book classic pairing next to WW and Superman. So the “Lois Lane X Bruce Wayne” thing was likely dropped.
Regardless i firmly believe if the original version of Justice League released, it would have been received much better than BvS.
@@jakespacepiratee3740 A minority of people loved it. Snyder fan are not "lots" of people
the majority of people breathed a sigh of relief Snyder was not disrespecting the IP they grew up with anymore.
good riddance to piss-poor content.
WW and Batman hinting at a romance is nothing when Batman is literally killing people. You're not a Batman fan if you think that was okay.
Snyder's work is just spectacle and no substance. and he has continued his garbage content creation with Star wars ripoff films and its not been doing great.
@@eingoluq Right, so first you do False Populism (look it up) just because he made interpretations of characters you didn’t like, doesn’t make it intentional disrespect. These are fictional characters we are talking about.
There are literally alternate-universe versions of Batman (and his Dad) who kill ppl. Plus, nearly everyone does this in the MCU so i don’t get the problem. However, i think the version of Batfleck fits better as a Red Hood character!
There are plenty of non-Snyder people who aren’t excited for the DCU, it’s likely going to be just the MCU, but with DC characters. And frankly I’m not excited to hear Batman say “well that happened” and Flash make constant pop culture references. Public opinion on the MCU is declining fast, the DCU couldn’t be made at the worst time.
@@jakespacepiratee3740 lol, False Populism? Your lack of self wawwareness is hilarious. YOU were the one saying that lots of people liked Snyder's DCEU film. (evidence to the contrary)
dude the DCEU is a dumpster fire and crash snd burned. you just cant get over the fact that his movies, which you liked are trash and everybody not only hated his films and what he did to popular characters but also everybody is glad snyder is not involved anymore.
@@eingoluq I’ve seen people who have never liked something from Snyder before say they liked his version of Justice League…so yes it was a big success. Appealing to your inherent audience is easy but appealing to much more than that is hard.
I guess I’m not “everybody” am I not a body? Cuz I liked them. So yes, False Populism. You’re just being deeply resentful and unfair because Snyder “besmirched” the “honor” of fictional characters. 🤷♀️
Honestly, Matt Smith as a Joker (but in something well written and directed)? I would love to see that!
Pigpen you literally post videos on stuff I’m interested in. You’re literally the best man. Keep it up
The commercials are always such a nice touch, dude
This is very cool. Was more interested in the DCEU than the MCU and more of a DC fan over all so this is cool. Love your icebergs man. Very educational lol
The amount of time and effort Pigpen puts into these is worth a like and subscribe. I’m proud to say I’ve been a fan since the Transformers Iceberg (insane to think that’s 3 years ago)
*R.I.P. DCEU (2013-2023)*
Hope James can truly create a Redemption Franchise
@@lewisaino to be honest I’m afraid it will just be the MCU but DC characters
@@jakespacepiratee3740Maybe weirdly enough that can save it
@@jakespacepiratee3740 I mean is that so much worse than what the majority of DCEU is?
@@thatoneantoid51 eh I preferred the more serious tone of the DCEU. Personally I am so tired of every character in the MCU being reduced to jokers and jesters trying to make as many lamé jokes within a 6 second timeframe
The amount of engagement is insane, great video
There was also an audio drama that was released with The Flash, titled The Flash: Escape the Midnight Circus, which apparently takes place after the movie, in the new timeline. Assuming Aquaman 2 takes place before the timeline reset in The Flash, it technically makes the audio drama the last DCEU story chronologically.
1:08:05 I haven't seen a CGI baby look this bad since Twilight Breaking Dawn.
Jimmy Olsen was truly treated dirty in the DCEU, they could’ve just made him a background character for comic book nerds then needing to kill him off.🐱
I think it would be cool if in dc killawog becomes the main green lantern for a bit
is it just me or i cannot understand what zack snyder is saying sometimes
I’ve watched the interview where he’s talking about the Kryptonian Ship, it’s an interview with several people talking over each other, that’s why it sounds strange in quotes.
I just wanted to say I appreciate your videos a lot and I like how tou edit your videos. I been here for awhile and always enjoyed these. Excited for this one
If Matt really did tell Ben not to do Batman for his health, what an amazing friend he is
Or didn't want to ruin ideas
It's a bummer for him personally. Affleck said being Batman was a childhood dream. but between fan reaction, executive meddling, and a messy divorce in his personal life he got to live that dream...at the time his life was a living nightmare.
Respect for acknowledging Sam as Cap and that his accomplishments and Steve's are their own :)
Finally a watchable video my feed was dry until now thanks pigpen
Isn't it crazy UA-cam has more content than ever, yet most of it is unwatchable garbage?
Been looking forward to this one ever since you announced plans for it!
To be honest this iceberg is probably the best thing to come out of dceu
This franchise needs to be studied I always thought that WB was trying too hard to catch up to marvel instead of create their own universe which inherently tanked most the projects that came out, it’s really unfortunate because for me DC has way more compelling characters and stories but ig now maybe we’ll get to see what james gunn has in store 🤷🏾♂️
Drink everytime he says "however". How long until you're in a coma
You’ll die
@@Pigpen_YTHOWEVER...
So fucking sad hearing about everything they cancelled
I wasn't even a big fan of the DCEU to begin with
black adam was the movie that hurt me the most out of the dceu. I had such how hopes for a darker take of an anti hero or villain story.
There are many things i can see and pick out which would of made it a better movie. It now may be years till we get a new black adam appearance.
Damn Bryan Cranston is the perfect choice but at least we got him in Batman year one :D
The damage done to WB from sabotaging this universe is massive. 30 minutes removed from BvS and it resulted in all this. A good reminder that you need to give people a fair chance
Is there a Green Lantern iceberg coming perhaps? Since Flash got a one i hope GL ones coming soon (both are as popular id say " and GL fans could use finally some good content celebratinf a whole franchise Just like u did Superman or WW for example.
Love your vids btw! You're easily the goat of iceberg vids! ✌️
Green Lantern iceberg is coming out this year dw
@@Pigpen_YT yesss
i always thought the dceu was scrapped due to bombing movies but after seeing this endless rabbit hole of cancelled movies and delayed projects and unfinished ideas and whatever the fuck else i'm surprised this lasted for as long as it did, ive never seen this much development hell surround a single franchise oh my god
I going to miss DCEU Pigpen but I can wait to see James Gunn DCU universe such as Superman Legacy
Unified Pegpen
Eh i think it’s just gonna be the MCU but DC characters.
12:20 I'm so glad this got canned. What is with the DCEU foisting everyone else's stories on the Big Three? Superman stealing Black Adam from Billy Batson _and_ Batman stealing Deathstroke's vendetta from Nightwing?
12:04 I legit slammed the table as soon as I heard deathstroke was gonna be in the movie, one of my favourite dc characters and yet didn’t get a chance to show up
"I have this idea for a film involving one of our tentpole superheroes and we can fill some of the supporting character roster with characters from the comic books."
"Great idea. Solid. One suggestion: GIVE THOSE CHARACTERS THEIR OWN FILMS! YOU'RE GREENLIT! ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!"
"Uh, that's spreading ourselves a bit thin. If those B-List supporting characters get their own films then they are going to need their own supporting characters from the C-List-"
"Great idea. NOW GIVE THOSE SUPPORTING SUPPORTING CHARACTERS THEIR OWN FILM! YOU'RE GREENLIT! ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS"
"Uh....fuck it."
-DC/WB, I presume
I really hope the next one is daredevil!! I’m so excited for all the potential icebergs. Otherwise we are gonna have icebergs entries of unfinished icebergs haha
Man, I forgot all about that Jason Momoa Frosty announcement. What a truly bizarre thing that happened.
Thanks for still making funni ice burg
To this day I’m still sad we never got Gotham city sirens, green lantern corps, new gods & afflecks Batman movie💔
Man most of the entires were so sad. 😂 great job as always though!!
The brony joke in peacemaker is a dig at stephen amell who plays green arrow in the arrowverse
Fortnite comic
Wise words
You mean Trash the Magazine
37:34 37:38 37:40 37:42 37:42 37:44
Yes, fortnite comic indeed 🗿
I found your channel about a week ago and I’ve already watched about half of them so when I clicked this one I thought I was watching an older one so when I saw few hours ago I went … nice
Hulk is going to be HYPE.
55:45 IT'S THE FREAKIN MAAAAAN
Well, I learned some things after watching this video
1). This video is good, I did like your sense of humour
2). Warner didn't have any kind of path with the universe, unlike Marvel who got a established path of what they wanted to show to people, Warner didn't have this and they started announcing projects without the certitude that theses projects could've been done,
3), warner is such a bad company, they fear success, because they got amazing projects but they rejected them because they were afraid of losing money instead of watching what people wanted.
That's it, this universe could've something good, something different than Marvel, but the constant changes and the fact that they took control instead of letting the directors to share their projects kill this universe.
Once again, nice video
I will say my favorite entry is the scrapped justice league trilogy plans cause it has the batman and lois lanes son becoming the new batman (which i asked about on twitter lol)
Something to include, apparently Ray Fisher absolutely hated his "Booyah" line
Probably because it was extremely forced
57:43 i remember getting a BVS comic book by a cereal box when i was younger it was cool but the comic i got always confused me was it canon or not due to having random halo looking aliens attack the city
I don't know if anyone else also remeber that one too
what happened to Batgirl will forever piss me off
J.J Abrams was legalized bank robbery at Wb and kinda have to respect it
Please do the X-Men iceberg next. That one would be so rich in content.
Also why do you pronounce Etrigan EE-TRY-GUN lol
That’s how people said it was pronounced
They gotta establish the super heroes separately and they might stand a chance
For some reason I thought you already did a DC iceberg lol. Either way great video
Also, I am so glad these awful films are over with.
So essentially what im hearing here is that the downfall of the dceu was due to warner bros being warner bros and interfering too much in the development of these movies(i pray that the dcu succeds dude, being a dc fan iver marvel it'll be good to see some dc amongst all this marvel)
I didn't know like 99.9% of the stuff in this video. I say this is a good one.
Now I don’t want it to end for a long time but imagine if PigPen or someone else made a huge MCU iceberg video covering all of the behind the scenes info like this video, but only after the MCU has its last official movie/series
i love you pigpen, you're the most underrated iceberg channel
You reading Snyder’s quotes in a monotone voice just make me realize how silly Snyder is in his answers
You mentioned how there was only one novel (that aren't novelizations) part of the MCU which is incorrect as there's 3 (I believe 3) Captain Marvel novels telling Carol's experience before the movie. They're rather unknown so it's no problem they went under the radar but I thought it was worth mentioning.
Love These iceberg videos, i watch them all day at work.
This video and the behind scenes chaos is more entertaining than the actual DCEU!
Its a shame because they had some good castings and on paper, great stories!
LUPIN III iceberg would be cool love the vid
So pissed they never made Del Toro's Justice League Dark movie. It sounded awesome.
Love the video as always appreciate the hard work
