Uh… wait what does Sam Lane want besides freeing Metropolis and how is he getting it?

Hmm. Maybe he wants to prove how good of a general he is?

What gets Metropolis free and why do Lois and Clark have to go against him to free it in their own way?

Maybe he's being funded by Lex whose using the tech to free it in sketchy ways or something?

He's part of the US Military, he's being funded by taxpayer money.

I see, hmm Maybe he uses kryptonian tech the military secretly received by Luthor as he's running for president to get their support?, probably not, maybe Sam is being manipulated to make the situation worse? it's freed but something else happens to the city

Because he's going way “militaristic” with it. Or something similar?

He wants to nuke it with Kryptonian technology at the Fortress?

That'd be interesting.

The only issue is where in the world did he get that authority? Because even if we make up some fake law, Lex would want to be the one to press that button and “save the country” and there is no way he's letting some general get all the credit. And Lex is trapped alongside everyone.

I mean Lex is the kind of guy to tale the credit for it, through fake footage or something. Yeah, Lex wouldn't want to get nuked. Maybe Lex would have a bunker?

Bunker wouldn't help on Braniac's ship. Even if he manages to crash back to Earth, he'd still be 2 inches tall.

What if both him and his VP get trapped, and the Speaker becomes acting POTUS and the Speaker is absolutely insane and thinks the Earth is only 2024 years old.

This is a very thinly veiled caricature of the current Speaker.

So here's the plot idea for John Constantine: Hellblazer I had for a week now.

On a random day of the week like every other, at a random mundane time, every child on earth collapses. attempts to wake those children up are fruitless with many remarking on their soullessness. In a panic, the UN held a meeting during which a slimy man named Buer entered, claiming that he was, in fact, a demon and had stolen the soul of every child on earth by the order of his superior (I wonder who that could be?) He gives the world's leaders a dilemma, allow him to keep a certain amount of souls or he'd keep all of them. For unspecified means. They have a week to decide. Every occultist/magician on the planet doesn't want to engage with the situation for reasons. So there's only one man who can help yep, Willoughby Kipling John Constantine. Given his history with souls (and having kid niece) John tries to figure out how Buer even is able to do such a thing of this caliber and stop it. I'd need to iron some things out, it would be a book, and figure out how to give John a satisfying arc without stepping on his in the first film.

I am worried it might be a bit dark though.

He should canonically be the Pied Piper. Either him or Dracula.

The main problem here is that by the time this movie comes out, we might have a new Speaker and the political messaging will fail.

This also seems a bit… BIG. Like Batman, Superman, and co. would notice this. There's no way Batman wouldn't try to learn magic if this happened

Yeah … yeah. I mean the original plot was big to with the war and all that but I have a good excuse for it.

They don't want to, Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman are all on the alignment of very good, and a situation like that would cause some grey area with demons and the like. It could also be set like before they were active.
