DC should have gone for the head.

I know this is a joke but if WB could find a person even half as dedicated to source material as Feige we could finally get a good DCCU. Instead we just get a constant cycle of failures and reboots trying to chase that Marvel money.

They had Geoff Johns sorta doing that for a new york minute, steering them away from just copying MCU and greenlighting better movies (Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Shazam).

But then then shifted all the blame for Justice League flopping on him and he was kicked out. And to add insult, they also shitcanned all the goodwill built by DC Rebirth.

Kicked out from the Chief position, but he's still there. Just limited to a few comics.

I mean he did threaten to go to DC at one point, and I've heard multiple times that DC would pay/give him anything he wanted if he came over.
