Why Does DC Comics Hate Female Superheroes?

A DC Executive recently said in an interview: 

"We had originally planned to do sequels for Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, but Wonder Woman’s sales started out extremely slow... that there wouldn’t be any more female superhero films right now. We were developing and hoping to get started on a batgirl film based on Year One, but because of Wonder Woman’s slow sales start, that won’t be happening now.

"With Green Lantern, it didn’t perform nearly as well as what they had hoped it would. In the long run it eventually made its money back, but the sales weren’t there right away during its release. Hopefully with the release of the Live Action film next year, that will open up the doors for more Green Lantern relate material."   Gfest

Kevin Conroy Says Christian Bale's Batman Voice "sounds ridiculous"

Kevin Conroy, the voice of Batman on Batman: The Animated Series, had some choice words for Christian Bale's gravelly Bat-voice. Although he went out of his way to praise Bale's acting performance, Conroy noted that Bale "just got steered wrong" in the voice department, and said his Batman "sounds ridiculous."
