There is no actor in Hollywood trying to carve out the perfect movie for the fans except Dwayne Johnson. While fans have already experienced what Marvel does with superheroes, they have never seen DC go all out. They had great films like Aquaman and Wonder Woman, but more than once they failed to deliver on expectations. Batman V Superman and Justice League are two big examples of pitfalls they dug themselves into.

But the recent Batman and Black Adam were amazing movies to come out of the studio in recent years. Both movies clutched the idea of delivering what fans wanted and this led to massive success. While they were delivering what the fans wanted, they also kept certain aspects of the movie into consideration. But the end product was so successful in the eyes of the fans that the movies are doing amazing.
