the problem with the DC movies wasn't that they where not a carbon copy of the marvel formula. if they wanted to go darker, fine. but make them INTERESTING. ESB was darker than star wars, but it set up some interesting things and new characters and plots.
that's where WB failed with their movies. Wonder woman was OK, but it didn't have anything INTERESTING in it. Superman may have looked nice, but it didn't fit the character at all. The only one they kind of got right was Batman, and even that Screwed the pooch on the Joker, getting his character wrong. but at least we got an awesome scare crow out of it.
it may have taken WB 5 years to figure out how to fix what they couldn't figure out was wrong inthe first place.
admittedly, I am not the biggest fan of miller's flash. too dumb for barry allen. but the trailer DOES look cool. and yeah, I 'm kind of tired of the flash point plotline again. changing one relatively minor thing like he does should not alter the universe that badly.
