After two weeks, we finally get the answer to, "What's more powerful than Batman and Superman put together?"

The Jungle Book is going to kill everything next week.

100% rating currently at Rotten Tomato with 21 reviews.

BvS isn't doing as well financially as Man of Steel.

And here comes the studio to "fix" the DC movies.

Seriously, how fucking difficult is it to look at what Marvel is doing and copy that? One guy, who is familiar with the source material, is the final word on the entire movie universe. Instead WB seems to be taking the various properties and giving them to directors with no clear plan or direction.

Now rumors seem to be flying about all kinds of goings on behind the scenes. Recently there was word that they'd be going back into SUICIDE SQUAD reshoots with the intent of making it lighter and funnier.

We're not saying we're panicking like chihuahuas during a thunderstorm and are going to copy Deadpool but...

The problem is that's exactly what they are doing.  But instead of copying the underlying approach and methodology that Marvel has established for making good superhero films, they are copying the shallow surface layers of what they see.  People liked seeing the super fights in Winter Soldier, so we'll have to be sure our heroes fight each other!  And we'll make it dark and moody because people like that!  And I think Malcolm is right; now they will start aping Deadpool without understanding why it was so successful, and just make things that are painfully bad to watch because it's clearly trying too hard.

My pick would be Bruce Timm but I don't think he could stand the execs.  They have to hand over complete control.  There's just no fucking way they'll let it happen.  WB is famous for fucking with things.

Bruce would be a decent selection, but I think they'd keep him in the animation department.

Geoff Johns might be a better pick, but that would come at the expense of their comic line. Although, who cares because I'm pretty sure they're rebooting again really soon.

If they wanted to be ballsy, they'd give it to Grant Morrison.

WB: reshoots totally not about comedy.  By the way, the author looks paid off.
QUOTE
Although reshoots can sometimes indicate that something is wrong behind the scenes, everyone involved in the production of Suicide Squad has continuously shown nothing but support for the quality of the project. Between the sheer lunacy of Jared Leto’s Joker, to Jai Courtney’s recent labeling of David Ayer as "psychotic," Suicide Squad seems primed to absolutely kill it this summer.

If by "it" you mean any chance of a DC film universe ever getting off the ground, then yes.  BvS didn't have much competition.  SS will.
