The DC Extended Universe, or DCEU, is nearing its end. The fate of the cinematic universe of brooding antiheroes, bubbly crusaders, and somewhat heroic supervillains was confirmed in Dec. 2022 by Warner Brothers Discovery (WBD). There had been concerns over the state of the DCEU earlier in the past year when it was announced that the HBOMax streaming exclusive, “Batgirl”, had been canceled despite almost being completed, due to the CEO of WBD David Zaslav having little faith in the project turning a profit. After the exit of Walter Hamada, in part due to the cancellation of “Batgirl”, Peter Safran and James Gunn were named as co-CEOs of DC Studios, a division of WBD, and answerable directly to Zaslav. Safran, a producer and manager of some note for his association with “The Conjuring”franchise, will primarily focus on the production and financing of films and television series for DC Films. While Gunn, who served as both writer and director for “The Suicide Squad”and “Peacemaker”, will be primarily concerned with the creative side of the division, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The rise of SZA, while a fairly slow burn, has been incredible to witness.

Starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Black Adam introduced a new wave of characters to the DCEU and marked the film debut for the Justice Society.

Midnights by Taylor Swift, which indeed came out at midnight on October 21, has been such a knock out of the park within the music industry. I don’t even think Taylor Swift herself knew how much of an effect this new pop album would have on those who have listened to it.

It’s 1955, you're dancing to Oogum Boogum Song by Brenton Wood on your record player while twirling around in your daisy yellow teacup dress dusting everything in sight. You're dancing your heart out, and all of a sudden you hear nothing. You think the record player must have stalled and as you walk over to check, it starts up again but goes faster and faster until it’s looping and all you hear is noise. It scares you and as you go to turn it off, a broken tune you recognize comes out. You don’t know where it came from or what memory it’s from but all you feel is terrified. That is how Don’t Worry Darling makes you feel, scared of the future, confused out of your mind and almost completely unable to connect the dots until the end is near.

The film My Policeman is a heartbreaking, while also heartwarming, story of a forbidden love that takes place in Great Britain in the 1950’s. Which was at a time when conservative ideals took even more of a precedence over the things that could be considered humane. Along with that, during the film there are multiple transitions between time periods, by showing the characters when they were younger, and when they have grown older. And the characters dealing with the torment of the difficult situations at hand.
