One thing I'd love, even if it's a more expensive way of making films, is for DC to embrace the world building.
Marvel has built a massive interdimensional world of characters but ultimately a lot of its events take place in places such as New York. For DC I want them to ditch the Nolan nonsense and embrace the imagery. If you're going to have Keaton appear then Gotham should look like some epic gothic city, Metropolis be an art deco wonder etc. Without going darker or more grounded or any other conscious attempt it would instantly make DC films look different from Marvels at a glance and make the action or any large scale events immediately more acceptable. Agreed about Superman, until a definitive modern incarnation of the classic character has been delivered there shouldn't be any what if alts deployed.
