DC Films Good TL Idea

 * The 2000 Batman Year One Film takes off, and is released in 2003 as Batman:Origins. It is a comerical and critical sucess, prompting Warner Bros to reboot Superman as well.
 * The movie recives a re-work before release. Bruce's Origin is brought to be more along the lines of his comic book self.
 * Bruce is aged up slightly. He is not 25 but instead 31
 * Bale is still Batman.
 * Superman is released in 2005, with Brandon Routh as Superman and Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor. The movie details the rise of Superman and the start of his conflict with Lex Luthor. The Film is well recived and performs well, albeit not as strong as Batman
 * Batman Vs Superman is the ATL Dark Knight.
 * In Case LL or Scraw read this before I talk to them, there are intentionally some odd movie choice to make it more like real life.
 * Catwoman movie is made in 2008 and is medicoreAF
 * Green Lantern comes out in 2010 and is terrible. Alan Scott's Green Lantern. the Movie is Written Out of the DC with the Justice League movie and is later acknoledged as an alternate universe in either Flash 2, Justice League 2, Flash 3/Flashpoint, or the Crisis movie. The movie actually stalls the Justice League movie from 2011 to 2013. However, because of this, several other characters are able to appear in the Justice League
 * The first Justice League Movie fetures Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Flash, a new Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Catwoman, Robin/Nightwing, and Aquaman
 * Watchmen and Ex-Powers Live Adaption gets made as DC movies.

 * There are an additional 250 super delegates who back canidates at their will
 * There are rounds of voting. Each Round takes 3 days to complete.
 * If no canidate gets a majority, the biggest loser is eliminated and the voting moves to another round, continuing until one canidate has a majority of the votes.
 * Voters do rank canidates, but it is not a traditonal MMP/STV system.
