Fans are getting excited to see what's included in the DC movies list for the next 6 years.
One thing fans can surely expect though, these movies won't be big on the humor.
DC Movies are entirely different from Marvel's. They're gritty, dark and just downright serious. On the other hand, you have a superhero over at Marvel who dances to mix-tapes, and a whole super gang who stops for a shawarma fix after a hard day's work.
Drew McWeeny over at HitFix shared his insights about why DC Movies are less humorous than their Marvel counterparts. McWeeny linked it to DC's attempt to include more wit and humor in the "Green Lantern." Unfortunately, the move was not a success. To say the least, the movie didn't enjoy the same attention and box office feat like the global hit "Batman The Dark Knight."
In the article, McWeeny said, "DC treats their superhero characters more like gods, fighting battles that we simply can't comprehend or participate in because of our natures. Even Batman, who has no superpowers, is treated like he is a legend, an icon that he's nurtured as a symbol of fear. Marvel characters are more flawed, more human, struggling to live human lives while still dealing with their powers and their responsibility to the world."
"But if "No Jokes" is a reaction to "Green Lantern," an edict that comes from a desire to simply do things differently from Marvel, it could really paint DC's movies into a corner, and I would imagine that it's giving some filmmakers pause in considering whether or not they'd want to make a DC movie."
On a different note, the DC Movies upcoming list has been recently released, showing a line-up until 2020. And like Marvel's movies list, majority of the projects remain unconfirmed and unnamed.

Rumors are starting to spread that DC might take the route Marvel has taken in coming up with the 'Avengers.' News broke that the reason why 'Batman V Superman' was delayed was because it will be used to kick-start the "Justice League" movie.
Other reports are also starting to circulate that an "Aquaman" movie is also in the works, as well as a "Wonder Woman" stand alone film and "Man of Steel 2." No additional information has been offered for these speculations as of the moment.
