The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the name given to the series of films created by Marvel Studios that allow characters from one film to interact with characters from another film.
In short, because of other film studios such as Sony and Fox was producing films based on Marvel characters such as Spider-Man and X-Men, Marvel wanted to produce films where they would have creative control over their characters and allow them to reap the most profit.
The first of these films was Iron Man, which was followed by Captain America: The First Avenger and Thor. Characters from Iron Man, such as Agent Coulson, an agent for the spy group S.H.I.E.L.D. appeared in those other films, showing that these films were interconnected in the same 'universe'.
The DC Extended Universe is the unofficial term for the media part of the DC universe. It includes all the film that shares the same universe. The film series that began with Man of Steel and has continued with Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad, Justice League and Wonder Woman and the and the upcoming installments on the film side like Aquaman and Flashpoint.
I think it is only limited to the specific cinematic universe. I do not think any of the TV shows from DC are part of it. Traditionally, Warner Bros. has kept their TV shows separate from their film universe. The bulk of the popular DCTV shows are set in the so-called "Arrowverse," and in theory, this allows DCTV freedom to maneuver, not having to consider the latest big-screen developments. So they may be a part of different universes. Unlike Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU) which includes TV shows set in that same universe. But with the new upcoming DC’s television series Titans that will air this 2018, I think this should share continuity with the DCEU.
If you have questions, clarifications, and suggestions, feel free to comment.
I think that DCEU were late in the shared universe movie game. Because they completely wasted time when Marvel milked us for every last drop, they released Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America: The First Avenger and that was a huge success for Marvel.
ReplyDeleteyes. maybe because DCEU focuses more on their animated movies rather than live action movies itself. but then both of them have their own way of showing their stories
DeleteYes, in fact DC animation is generally better as they have Warner Bros. best animators while Marvel animation doesn't have Disney's best animators.They’re also integrated back and forth which is why DC is putting out so many cartoon based comics. While Marvel Animation seems content to cater mainly to younger fans with programs such as Disney XD’s Ultimate Spider-Man.
DeleteI want to suggest your next post be their series 😊😊 btw, I'm a fan of DC tv series.
ReplyDeletethank you for the suggestion, I will post about movies too so stay tuned lols :)
Deletemay nakalineup pa po bang movie si Spider Man?
ReplyDeleteyes. meron. but I think I'm not allowed to share more info about that. :) :)
ReplyDeleteIs the movie Venom related to that one?
ReplyDeleteNo. It turns out it does not, as Joe Russo, one of the directors of Infinity War made it clear Venom is not a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe maybe because it is not part of the deal between Sony and Disney.
Deletemagkakakonekta po ba ang kewento ng mga heroes?
ReplyDeleteYes. They exist in the same reality. Marvel introduced the idea of interconnection way back in the first movie, Iron Man, by namedropping “Avengers”. Then they put Tony at the end of Hulk, put Thor’s hammer at the end of Iron Man 2. They introduced Black Widow in Iron Man 2 and Hawkeye in Thor, who later went on to co-star in both Captain America sequels as well as all Avengers movies. Each Marvel Studios movie, ends with credit scene, some of these scenes have big reveals or teasers for future movies, and some are simply codas for the film that came before, and that’s how Marvel shows the connection in each movie. So, if you go see a Marvel Studios movie, stay through the credits. :) :)
ReplyDeleteHello, Can you give some opinion about the "Avenger:Infitity War"? Thanks
