So, I'm sure we're all aware of a "Clayface" horror movie in development for the DCU with Mike Flanagan writing the script and potentially directing. Seeing how they bring Clayface to life on the big screen will be interesting. Still, many fear it will fall into the same trappings of other supervillain movies. As in, they will make Clayface into an anti-hero who strays too far from his villainous roots in an attempt to make him more sympathetic to audiences. Similar to what Sony did with Venom, Morbius, and Kraven, it potentially alienates fans who want to see his character stay true to its origins.

But this post offers a pitch on how a Clayface movie could stay true to the character's villainous nature by looking to the DCAU for inspiration, particularly in the "Batman: The Animated Series" episode "Growing Pains," one of the darkest episodes in the series, and I think, ill, it could serve as a blueprint for the film. After all, James Gunn said that the DCAU greatly influenced the direction he would take with the DCU.

Here is how I would go about adapting that story (assuming that it will take place before "Creature Commandos"):

The film's main characters will be Clayface (obviously), Annie, Jason Todd, and Batman. I know that it was Tim Drake in the original episode, but if "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" is jumping straight to Damien as Robin, then it's safe to assume Dick is already Nightwing, Jason is already Red Hood, and Tim is already Red Robin (and possibly a member of the Teen Titans). I think Jason would make for a great protagonist in this story, and it would lay the groundwork for his eventual falling out with Bruce and transformation into Red Hood.

The main story will be about Jason trying to help the amnesiac Annie, a spawn of Clayface in the form of a little girl, who he is pursuing. Sprinkled throughout the film will be standard horror movie tropes as Clayface tries to reabsorb Annie and kills people who get in his way. Annie will also have a series of nightmares: Clayface's memories of his life before becoming a villain and the events that transformed him.

A subplot will involve Jason and Bruce drifting further apart as Jason becomes more involved in helping Annie. This will lead to tensions between them as Jason questions Bruce's methods and priorities. This will build upon the inevitable tragedy of Annie realizing she and Clayface are the same person, ultimately leading to her sacrificing herself to save Jason like she saved Tim in the original show.

Distraught by Annie's sacrifice, Jason confronts Clayface in a showdown where he seemingly kills him. Batman, who saw the whole ordeal unfold, failed to arrive in time to stop Jason. He'll chastise Jason for killing Clayface, reminding him they don't kill their enemies. However, Jason will have none of it and argue that Bruce's moral code allowed Annie to die in the first place. The rift between Bruce and Jason has grown beyond repair, and we all know where this is heading.

Clayface will be revealed alive in a typical horror movie stinger at the end.

What do you all think of my rough idea for how to do a "Clayface" horror film adaptation within the DCU? What would you all want from the move?"Clayface" will be released on September 2026.

Absolute "Owl House"

This is just a thought I had after watching some videos on YouTube about DC's Absolute Universe and how the idea could be applied to other characters in Marvel, anime, or any other fictional setting. So, what would the Absolute version of Disney's "The Owl House" look like?

For those who don't know what the Absolute Universe is, to make it brief, the Absolute Universe tackles the concept of "What if [DC Superhero] did not go through the event that defined their character?" For example, would Bruce Wayne still become Batman if his parents were never killed? Or would Kal-El still become Superman if Krypton never exploded? So, would Luz, Eda, King, and the rest of "The Owl House" characters still be the characters we know and love if they were placed in a different universe where key events in their lives never happened?

Here are some ideas I have, and I'm eager to hear your own interpretations.

In the original show, Luz Noceda is an over-enthusiastic and imaginative teenager with a penchant for fantasy and adventure that gets her into trouble. This stemmed from Luz losing her father at a young age, leading her to seek solace in fictional worlds, which informed her decision to stay on the Boiling Isles instead of attending the summer camp.

If Luz had not lost her father, she may have still been imaginative but not as driven to escape reality through fantasy. I imagine her being more grounded and having more friends in Gravesfield, like Masha. She would still end up on the Boiling Isles, but her reasons for staying would differ. Perhaps she would be drawn to the island's mysteries rather than using it as an escape.

In the original show, Eda Clawthorne is portrayed as a rebellious witch who rejects the Coven System's magic practices and lives on the fringes of society. This stemmed from Eda being cursed by her sister and forced to become an outlaw to survive.

If Lilith did not curse Eda, she would still be a rebellious witch who rejects the Coven System's rules, but since she doesn't have a curse dampening her powers, she would be a different type of outlaw. I think a witch as powerful as her rejecting the Coven System would unintentionally make her a revolutionary figure, inspiring others to question and challenge the traditional power structures in place. Her defiance and strength would likely lead to her becoming a symbol of hope for those oppressed by the Coven System.

In the original show, King was found and raised by Eda since he was a baby and grew up learning from her unconventional ways. When Luz comes into his life, her influence helps him grow from a mischievous troublemaker to a more responsible and compassionate individual.

The reason Eda found King was because she was hiding from the Emperor's Coven, so if Eda had not needed to hide from the Emperor's Coven, King may never have been found and raised by her. This could drastically change King's character development, his relationship with Luz, and the overall dynamic of the series.

In the original show, Amity Blight started as a snobby perfectionist who would do whatever it took to maintain her status as the top student at Hexside. However, as she gets to know Luz and the rest of the gang, she begins to question her beliefs and values, leading to significant personal growth.

The catalyst for Amity being like this was her parents forcing her to end her friendship with Willow Park. But if that never happened, Amity and Willow would have remained close friends. Amity may not have experienced the growth and self-discovery that ultimately shaped her character arc.

"What...?" (Persona 5 ACAU Incorrect Quotes)

Goro: "Your parents were brilliant when it came to their research in Cognitive Psience. But they lacked the vision for what it could be used for. How it could fix this country. Still, it did hurt me giving them that mental shutdown."

Sojiro (now realizing Goro was responsible for causing the car accident that not only killed his parents, but Wakaba as well): "What...?"

Goro: "Now, I know that sounds bad..." (Before he could finish, Sojiro shoots Goro until he runs out of bullets.)
