Official Justice League Movie

[Raven]

It's official people.

http://www.superherohype.com/news/300241-300241

Along with this, Zack Snyder will be directing.

[TigerClaw]

Finally! I knew this was coming.

[CyberCubed]

By the time this movie comes out it'll be like what...2020? Jesus I don't even want to think that far from now.

[TurtleTitan97]

Don't know how to feel about this. On one hand, it'll be cool to see this finally happening.

On the other hand, seems a bit early for a JL movie. With Marvel, it took a few movies before Avengers happen, during that time introducing and building up the characters. But I guess time will tell.

[sdp]

Well this is no surprise, but I wish they weren't tainting the new Superman movie with all these heroes just to set up the movie. I'm guessing we'll see another "DCCU" movie before JL and after Superman vs Batman though.

I wonder about a few things though, Flash is now a TV show, will he be in the movie or will he be a different version? That would be confusing and suck since they're highly praised so far. What about Green Lantern? I didn't think the movie was too bad but it's too early to reboot GL. The can't just ignore Flash and GL because one has a tv show and the other had a movie that failed.

They could have a different GL(Kyle/Jon/Guy) without rebooting the franchise and just say Hal Jordan is elsewhere keeping the first movie ambiguously in continuity and without having to have a reboot so quickly. It'd be cool if they incorporate Flash from the TV show though, especially since the MCU also has in continuity TV shows.


On the other hand, seems a bit early for a JL movie. With Marvel, it took a few movies before Avengers happen, during that time introducing and building up the characters. But I guess time will tell.

That's not entirely true, the ending of Iron Man the first film that Marvel made set up the Avengers movie and after the first Iron Man became a hit they announced Avengers (originally for 2011) along with the other "origin" movies. Sure it had more "movies" but outside of iron Man the other movies came out what a year before Avengers? That's hardly what I call a good set up, they all felt rushed and advertisement for the big movie. DC is doing something similar. We'll probably have atleast one Wonder Woman/Cyborg or Batman movie in between, the JL movie won't come out until 2020.

Edit: and i was right they also announced some DC movies in development, so they're rushing JL as much as Marvel did, in fact they're pretty much copying every blueprint and move Marvel did 6 years ago.

Incredible Hulk came out a month or two after Iron Man, champ. They planned well ahead.

[sdp]

Incredible Hulk came out a month or two after Iron Man, champ. They planned well ahead.

They tested the waters with those two movies, only after the first Iron Man became a hit did Marvel Studios go into any real planning mode. In fact the secret ending of iron man was intended only as a gag, and the secret ending of incredible hulk was filmed only after the first Iron Man became a hit. That's not even the point, by "rushed" I mean they just wanted origin movies our as quickly as possible for their big "Avengers" movie and don't forget how many people complained that IM2 was only a big commercial for Avengers. A "nicer" Avengers set up would be after each movie had at least one sequel.

[DonnyMac]

Very excited to hear this. I have faith DC can pull this off. Having JL before solo films can help set up city characters, so we origin films may not be needed before branching off into solo films.

Making plans after waters have been tested is still planning ahead. But sure, 4 years isn't enough time to plan stuff, I guess. Avengers was such a failure. You would definitely have known better.

Sure, but Thor and Caps failed to be the hits that Iron Man was. You're grasping at straws with my use of the word "plan" and I don't even know what you're trying to prove. My point is that this Justice League movie is just as "rushed/planned" as the Avengers movie was.

[Cure]

I'm not trying to prove anything, I was just correcting you when you said "but outside of iron Man the other movies came out what a year before Avengers?" and you took it from there.

[chrisdude]

Iron Man and Incredible Hulk were testing the waters in 2008. There was obviously a plan in place by Cap and Thor in 2011, for Avengers in 2012. That's not rushing.

Snyder, himself, says the Batman nods in Man of Steel weren't his idea, but a CG animator's. There was obviously no plan for Superman/Batman in place, by the time Man of Steel was released. There's no solid evidence, in the film, that they were leading to this, like Marvel's cube, Coulson, Fury. They announced the movie, only being able to name a story or two that generally inspired it. They were filming last year, and now they're still casting, and the movie has been pushed back to 2016. THIS movie is the thrown together mess.

I'm convinced we were planning a regular old Man of Steel 2, until they saw Man of Steel's mediocre box office performance, and this is a mad scramble to salvage the franchise.

[Kanon]

Batman and Superman both have new movies, but what about Wonderwoman?
She is one of the main characters of the justice league and didn`t made it so far.
Hope they will think about this matter. :ohwell:

She will be in Batman/Superman..but you probably knew that.

I'm a Superman fan, but I don't hate Batman...so don't misread what I am saying here.
There seems to be too much put into this one sequel. It needs to be a simple Man of Steel 2.

I feel that adding all these characters gives the impression DC is rushed (and they are). Follow the Marvel formula: use individual movies for the characters, and put plot elements in them to connect. Once that is done, release your Justice League movie.

I hope this works out.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Hooray!

I'm glad that DC are doing this shared universe in a different way to how Marvel are doing it.

Ppfft, given the quality of movies and tv Marvel are putting out for their individual characters lately (Iron Man III, Thor II, Agents of SHIELD), I don't mind DC cutting to the chase. The Phase II build, outside of surprise smash Winter Soldier, has been rotten so far

[turtlefanforever]

Can't be that much of a bigger let down than the avengers film so I'm all for it. But when it comes to superhero films DC really drops the ball most of the time.

Okay then. Let's have Batman, Cyborg, Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor, Superman, and whoever else all in the Man of Steel Movie. Way too rushed.

My friend and I talked about this last night and we both agreed with the idea. Allow the characters to be introduced into Justice league and then have them branch out into their perspective franchises.

[Candy Kappa]

Big question is: Will to be better then the first live-action Justice League movie.

[blindturtle02]

I doubt they're doing it in the first JL movie, but I hope Darkseid eventually gets a nice live action treatment. I can't believe they made him a FF movie-like Galactus thing in Smallville, then offed him with one stupid punch from Clark.

Kanon mentioned WW. I'd like to see Ares before all is said and done. It'd be fun to see Darkseid eventually, but maybe not in the first film. Hope they build up to him over time. I don't know though, I'm afraid they'll show him shaking hands with someone at the end of a film and the plans for sequels will get scrapped. So does anyone know who they'd like to see as a villain in the JL movie? I'd like an Injustice Gang for the first one. Or Secret Society, or whatever they're calling themselves this week. A team of heroes is great to see, but a supervillain team up could rock too.

[JetsAndHeels]

Man, you said it..they really didn't do the character justice at all.

[blindturtle02]

Oh good, I was hoping I wouldn't ruffle any feathers or anything. I liked Smallville, especially season 8 with Doomsday. Darkseid was just a big letdown for me personally, however. Seems like most of the big bads in Marvel and DC can't really get a break barring Thanos. Man I can't wait to see him take center stage, as well as Apocalypse and whichever big bads DC decides to use in their film franchise.

[Redeemer]

??????????????????????????????

[Candy Kappa]

??????????????????????????????

There was a two part special in 79 and a failed pilot back in 97. Both worth a watch.

[Raven]

Turns out WB has more then the Justice League in plan at the moment, according to the washington post WB currently has 9 more DC properties in development.

http://www.newsarama.com/20980-report-nine-dc-comics-films-in-active-development-at-warner-bros.html

Some on the plate are:
The Metal Men
Fables
100 Bullets
Sandman
Shazam

These are a few of the properties they are developing that were named as well alongside the announcement with the Justice League movie. I'm sure this could easily change though.

[turtlefanforever]

My friend and I talked about this last night and we both agreed with the idea. Allow the characters to be introduced into Justice league and then have them branch out into their perspective franchises.



Damn you are just trying to bait someone into a reaction :lol:

I'm not at all. Look at DC movies compared to marvel,. they are terrible and with all the hype the avengers was a total let down. when the action finally happened the movie was over. DC films, Man of steel sucked, every superman movie besides the original 4 sucked. Green lantern sucked, the dark night rises sucked, ect. They had some good ones but compared to marvel they are bottom of the barrel.

Let me get this straight... You're saying Marvel movies are better than DC movies, but The Avengers was a letdown? You're saying there wasn't enough action in The Avengers, but you like Superman: The Movie? The Dark Knight Rises sucks? You've seen Superman IV, and you don't think it sucks?

Please, indulge us. What are your favorite comic book movies?

[ZariusTwo]

Superman IV has a woeful and blown budget and several incomprehensible moments, but Gene Hackman steals the show and it had a topical plot at the time, I do find myself rewatching bits of it now and then.

[Kanon]

I liked the Green Lantern movie and Avengers was one to show the beginning of their group work. You can`t tell a whole story in just one movie, there will be sure another one with a lot more action. :D

[blindturtle02]

Thought about a few more possible threats for the JL movie. I think Brainiac would be a good one. He's not too big of a baddy for the JL to go up against in the first movie. Or I suppose they could use those white Martians.

[sdp]

DC doesn't make as many movies as Marvel but I don't think their quality is as bad. Let's begin with post-2000 movies. The Nolan Batman trilogy is excellent, sure there are some decisions I strongly disagree with in Rises but it's still a far better movie than most Marvel films. Catwoman was a dud but Elektra was far worse, sure Elektra is not a Marvel Studios movie but at that time Marvel Studios wasn't making movies. Superman Returns wasn't that bad it just wasn't the movie we needed Superman to be in. Green Lantern is far from bad, it's just average and did nothing new, but it's on par with most Marvel movies. Man of Steel has people that don't like it but personally I loved it and was happy with the direction. In fact I'm mad that the sequels has all this clutter of other superheroes since I want a Superman movie not a crossover movie. So I wouldn't say that DC is doing that bad moviewise, they're just not doing much at all which is a shame.

I like DC heroes far more than Marvel and while I would've never imagined a JL movie ever happening now that it is I'm not as excited as I could've been if it didn't feel so "me too", pay attention to us again. Still excited though.


He's not too big of a baddy for the JL to go up against in the first movie. Or I suppose they could use those white Martians.

Well counting we don't have Martian Manhunter we won't get the white Martians, which is probably good, he's really out there and too similar to Superman for people to appreciate him as much as I like him. An alien invasion would be similar to Avengers as well, then again being similar to Marvel hasn't stopped DC.

[NinjaPug]

Starts shooting on 4/11. Snyder is still on board to direct despite the rumors.

http://www.ew.com/article/2016/02/21/justice-league-starts-April-11

Our first look at the Flash costume in the corner. Looks like a new Aquaman costume next to it. Add some color to that generic black costume next to that one and you could have GL or Nightwing.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cb2xyv5VIAEosno.jpg

[CyberCubed]

Would definitely be nice to see Nightwing make his movie debut.

[Commenter 42]

They look like crackheads. Stay Classy Snyder.

[sdp]

I just re-watched New Frontier and what a great movie it is and answers the question of "too many characters". We basically get an introduction to Batman, flash, Wonder Woman and Superman and not only do we get an origin for Martian Manhunter but also Green Lantern without mentioning Green Arrow, Aquaman among others also make guest appearances.

It also made me realize how easily and relatable Martian Manhunter can be, sadly he won't be in the movie and Green Lantern is also getting the boot..

Well guys, Justice League: Part 1 is said to start filming on April 11, so I'm sure we will get some news about it in a couple of weeks, like who else is being cast and things like that.

[CyberCubed]

I wonder if this movie will get script re-writers after seeing the reaction to Batman/Superman.

[Commenter 42]

That is the best casting I heard all year, what a great choice.

I don't see it at all. I also think separating him from J.J.J. is going to be difficult.

Also, when you have Cranston, the textbook definition of Gordon, Why? Oh right, because "Snyders."

They both need to be tossed in the bin.

[TigerClaw]

Looks like Warner Bros might be taking Justice League on a different direction.
http://www.comicbookmovie.com/justice_league/it-sounds-like-warner-bros-are-taking-justice-league-in-a-very-a137267

As for 'Batman v Superman,' those involved weren’t prepared for the critical knives the film received, but they always knew it was going to be a transitional film, bridging the gap between 'Man of Steel' (which was produced with no plan in place to expand the universe) and anything approaching the Avengers/Super Friends mold. But I’m told 'Justice League' will be a crowd-pleaser more suited to Snyder’s talents, and that the upcoming two-part event is 'extremely kinetic and visual.' It will be far more straightforward than existential in its handling of superheroes.

[NinjaPug]

Willem Dafoe cast as a "good guy" in JL. Who knows what a "good guy" even means in a Zack Snyder DC movie.

If they ditch the irritating zany psychotic parts of the character, I'd be willing to give him a second chance.

Still. Worst casting choice I've ever seen modern DC movies make (not counting the Schumacher/Burton era).

Holy ****, for a man his age he is ripped.

He is great casting no doubt.

[TurtleTitan97]

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

http://cdn.collider.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/justice-league-logo-black.jpg

It's a standalone movie titled Justice League and will have a lighter tone; it's a fun ensemble focusing on the team coming together to take on a common threat.
• The movie will be heavily influenced by Jack Kirby and revolves around the quest for three Mother Boxes; one on Earth, one in Atlantis, and one in Themyscira.
• Justice League takes place months after the events of Batman v Superman.
• A big chunk of the movie will focus on Batman assembling the team, with Superman (sporting some longer hair) set to return a little later on.
• Steppenwolf has yet to be cast and will be one of the main villains. Darkseid's influence will be felt, the Parademons will appear, and Lex Luthor may have some sort of role.
• Batman will upgrade his suit and we'll see a new version of his armoured suit towards the end of the movie.
• Bruce Wayne builds a jet called the "Flying Fox" for the team to use.
• Batman will have a new vehicle called the "Nightcrawler" designed by his father.
• Willem Dafoe is playing Vulko, a mentor to Aquaman.
• Mera is a warrior and sorceress and her costume which have chainmail which blends in with her skin.
• J.K. Simmons will have the classic Commissioner Gordon look.
• The Flash's initial costume will be pieced together by space suits and held together by wire. However, Batman later creates a much more streamlined suit for him to wear.
• Cyborg's costume will be 100% CGI.
• Junkie XL is scoring the movie, but Hans Zimmer's role has yet to be confirmed.

Junkie XL is scoring the movie, but Hans Zimmer's role has yet to be confirmed.

I wonder if that means "Junkie XL is scoring the movie", or if it means, "a dozen people will write music for the film, including Zimmer, but Junkie will receive the main credit".

Also, horrible logo. Looks just as flat as DC's new one.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I know that these reports aren't a true reflection of the fimal product, but I do have some optimism about the film. However, of all of DC's upcoming films, I'm looking forward to this one the least.

So basically Barry is Peter Parker to Bruce's Tony.
It's interesting that there is no mention of Starlabs for this movie, since they were the ones who designed the Flash's suit.

Golly gee willikers, I never would have guessed if not for the fact that it was so BLANTANLY OBVIOUS THAT IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT. :roll:

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I doubt Hans Zimmer will return, I remember reading that he no longer wants to do superhero movies.

Zimmer has a history of saying he won't do things and then doing them.

He said he wouldn't score the first Pirates of the Caribbean, but then ended up writing all the main themes.

He said he would bring Junkie along for BvS just for the Batman theme, but Zimmer apparently made the Batman theme himself.

He said he didn't want to score BvS at all but ended up doing it anyway.

Either by nature or by business obligations he's a very fickle person. I don't mind that at all, but don't be surprised if you see Zimmer's name pop up later on in the credits of a superhero film.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Unfortunately, it seems that so far, most potential viewers (myself included) are still extremely skeptical of a Flash movie, a Cyborg movie, the Justice League movie, and another Superman movie, all as unnecessary or as continuing on with the problems and baggage of Batman V Superman.

At the moment, I'm still hugely excited for Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern Corps, and the eventual Batman movie. (Not counting any rumored or potential projects, just the fo' sho' stuff.)

Hopefully, the others can win me over. I'm willing to accept their apologies or defenses for their necessary existence. :tlol:

(Cyborg, we don't want you... you'd better change into a Teen Titans movie.)

Yeah, it was announced awhile back that it got canned.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Yeah, it was announced awhile back that it got canned.

Presumably because Warner Bros DC films. Which makes Warner Bros sticking to this Cyborg film rather baffling.

Seriously, he's not an interesting character. If they're worried about racial diversity in the Justice League, go with Martian Manhunter, John Stewart, Simon Baz, Jessica Cruz...

Actually, I'm loving the different Green Lanterns. Some very interesting characters there... I'm a total newbie to the Corps.

But Cyborg? Having read the New 52 JL run, he seems like nothing more than continual plot device. I don't care about him.

Cyborg's a great character, especially in the 2003 Teen Titans cartoon and in the various Titan comics he's appeared in.

I just don't think he's the type of character who works well in a solo film. Who would be the main villain? Gizmo???

[TigerClaw]

Zimmer has a history of saying he won't do things and then doing them.

He said he wouldn't score the first Pirates of the Caribbean, but then ended up writing all the main themes.

He said he would bring Junkie along for BvS just for the Batman theme, but Zimmer apparently made the Batman theme himself.

He said he didn't want to score BvS at all but ended up doing it anyway.

Either by nature or by business obligations he's a very fickle person. I don't mind that at all, but don't be surprised if you see Zimmer's name pop up later on in the credits of a superhero film.
and the studio will offer him a ton more money, and he would end up doing it.

[ObiWanFan4life]

Unfortunately, it seems that so far, most potential viewers (myself included) are still extremely skeptical of a Flash movie, a Cyborg movie, the Justice League movie, and another Superman movie, all as unnecessary or as continuing on with the problems and baggage of Batman V Superman.

At the moment, I'm still hugely excited for Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern Corps, and the eventual Batman movie. (Not counting any rumored or potential projects, just the fo' sho' stuff.)

Hopefully, the others can win me over. I'm willing to accept their apologies or defenses for their necessary existence. :tlol:

(Cyborg, we don't want you... you'd better change into a Teen Titans movie.)

Unfortunately, DCs brand has been tarnished by the performance and reaction to Batman VS Superman.

[drgon78]

DC's brand got tarnished long before Batman vs Superman(wich I liked) with movies like Green Lantern, Catwoman, etc.

I really, REALLY hope that the Flash suit will not look anywhere close to this by the time the movie comes out, because this is straight up garbage.

Seriously, when a costume from a CW show or even from a show from 1990 looks more faithful than a costume in a big budget movie, you know you've messed up big time somewhere.

[Electric]

DC's brand got tarnished long before Batman vs Superman(wich I liked) with movies like Green Lantern, Catwoman, etc.

Blah blah blah, Marvels doing jussst fine after being "tarnished" with movies like Daredevil, The Hulk, and any of the final movies of any trilogy (Spiderman 3, Fantastic 4 3 (maybe 2)). No reason to sit there and count DC out yet


Also, about Cyborg, there was a rumor somewhere after they cancelled the Teen Titans TV show that they would be including them in a DCMU movie. The show, which was going to not have beast boy or cyborg, probably wouldnt have done well, but honestly, a live action version of the 2003 cartoon i think would thrive. Literally, just take that show and make it live action. They even had typical villain of the week episodes while an overarching villain drove each season....

anyway, if they were going to include the titans anywhere, I think it would be in cyborgs movie

And while some question why they chose Cyborg over others like Martian Manhunter for the spot, I wonder if it has something to with his abilities. Cyborgs got tech, and missiles, canons, plus technopathy, which is pretty different than any of the other 7, whom alot of powers involve some variation of hand to hand combat

[TigerClaw]

Steven “Frosty” Weintraub has a detailed description on the stuff he saw at the Justice League set visit, lots of good stuff.

He talks about a scene they showed that has
Bruce Wayne recruiting Barry Allen to join the Justice League
and witnessing a scene being filmed that had
Commisioner Gordon and the Justice League on top of a Rooftop

J.K. Simmons has been working out for his role as Commissioner Gordon.

holy crap Justice League isn't dark and depressing :o

[drgon78]

Now this looks like fun.

[Spike Spiegel]

Doesn't look quite as good as the DCAU but way better than Justice League: War and Throne of Atlantis.

[CyberCubed]

Flash is Asian in this movie? I really like what I see so far, but who knows. I just hope they get Superman right this time around. Affleck and Wonder Woman should be great.

[TurtleTitan97]

Ezra Miller isn't Asian, you dingus. :roll:

[Cure]

Ezra Miller, the actor playing Flash, is not Asian.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Well... can I nitpick? I'm gonna nitpick.

#1. Grant Gustin is still a better Flash. I'm nowhere near won over yet.
#2. I feel like they're trying too hard with Aquaman. He doesn't have to look like the f'ing Khal Drogo... but hey, he's badass, so there's that.
#3. Really feeling the lack of Superman.
#4. Also really feeling the lack of Green Lantern.
#5. Cyborg... we still didn't ask for you.

There, done nitpicking. Overall, it DID look pretty great... I'm prepared to be won over and have my enthusiasm rejuvenated by further footage.

[Mew]

Looks fantastic. I love that Cyborg is in this!

I don't know what the **** anyone else just watched, but this looks to be worse than BVS and MOS.

Ryan Renolds should of reprised Green Lantern in this. If he got Deadpool to work a second time he could have done the same for Green Lantern.

I just don't understand how anyone can be impressed by, well, what ever the **** those meaningless clips were.

Not funny, not interesting, not astounding, not visually pleasing not anything.


AGAIN!!!!!

Seriously. I just streamed Black Christmas, the last episode of the Black Mirror series, and that, THAT is incredible world-building writing. Season 2 of Better call Saul, OITNB s 4 ... GOT,

There's impressive work being done today, by competent writers and directors, but this sure as **** ain't it.

What town has people who act like that? Why is Barry Allen a loser? Why would we be impressed with that slowmo after seeing Days of Future Past, especially when it's, boring?
Why does everything about the DCEU have to suck so GD much?

Can we fire Fred Durst from this **** already!!!

Such a disaster, AGAIN!!!! For the 3rd time!!!!!

I liked The Red Road with Jason Momoa and he seems to be a killer Aquaman so that's why I will watch when it's out on DVD. I just hope his performance is good enough to counter my disdain for Ben Affleck.

Not a chance. I did end up going to BVS -even after swearing I wouldn't , but we have a theater 2 minutes from my condo... so it's hard to resist.

Gotta be honest - as much cheese as there is in this, this is so much more interesting to me, Swinton and all.

I will see it. I won't see Justice S#ite. Snyder should be arrested for crimes against my eyeballs.

[ToTheNines]

Even though we have autistic Barry, I might give them a pass if they exclude Eisenberg. That'll probably be my main criteria for seeing these DCFU joints or not.

[NinjaPug]

I agree - the JL trailer was pretty bland. The "jokes" in it seemed very forced and out of place. I don't know why WB thought a course correction from BvS would work when you've got the same people steering the ship.

[ToTheNines]

Watched it again, and man Cyborg looks like poop. Barely more believable than Deathlok on Agents of SHIELD lol.

[ZariusTwo]

I thought Cyborg looked fine.

Still don't think they should keep trying to make him a thing beyond the Titans though...but who am I kidding? This has been going on since the 80s, ever since the last season of Superfriends

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I almost thought this was supposed to be a fake "gag reel" sort of trailer, but then I slowly began to realize it was the real deal. Man, that was BAD.

I'm going to be over here liking this! Although I think Wonder Woman looks better I'm more impressed with this then BvS, hopefully they pull Synder way back.

[ToTheNines]

ComicBookMovie has such a hard on for this thing. Calling it a "truly epic" trailer, Zack Snyder's Magnum Opus lol. According to them, it was "easily the highlight" of SDCC this year.

Jesus.

[Commenter 42]

It's so crazy. So many people in denial, still.

DC has great characters; characters that are being mocked by Snyder, at every turn.

Tone deaf.

How long until the rights revert?

[CyberCubed]

I'm not keen on Flash, Aquaman or Cyborg yet.

Batman and Wonder Woman look fine as usual. Hopefully Superman doesn't stand around with a grimace all movie.

[sdp]

Many people seemed excited for the footage but I didn't really like it, it was bad for the most part besides the novelty of seeing the live action JL. I really liked Aquaman and thought it worked perfectly. I'm not liking Flash, I wish he were older but a younger flash just draws too many similarities with the TV show Flash who we already love so he already has expectations against him coming in. They really should've pulled the TV shows which is DC's strong point into their movie verse. Cyborgs CG looked terrible, like Green Lantern levels of bad but at least GL had the whole "it's supposed to be energy" excuse but here it's supposed to be real metal. It also looks boring, they really should've made it more like the Teen Titans cartoon re-design which makes it more futuristic.

The Wonder Woman trailer didn't excite me much, doesn't look terrible but not interested.

[Purse Grabbin Puke]

The trailer is ok, but people bitched and bitched and bitched so much to have it more like Marvel, and now here it is folks...It has nothing to separate it from Marvel movies...congrats you bastards.

I was at Comic Con and easily the breakthrough trailer, not Justice League (which wasn't billed as much as a trailer as... a collection of footage to show) and not Doctor Strange... was Wonder Woman. Very excellent trailer, even if the WWI setting and making her some kind of Immortal is a very strange and counterproductive choice, IMHO.

[ProactiveMan]

I agree with that - I liked the Wonder Woman trailer a lot.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

I will admit, I do like how DC is at least trying to make this enjoyable. But in terms of comedy, you have to do WAY better than this. With the exception of the Flash, it felt like they were struggling to try and make us laugh, as if they're trying to adjust to "lightening up". It's like Raven trying to tell a joke and she fails.

I'm fully aware of that (Manu's opinions are simply the best). But perhaps one of the reasons for the Season 3 "sendoff" for Arrow's Slade was because they managed to finagle one last appearance to wrap up that character...?

I want Red Hood, Black Mask, Joker and Harley, Hugo Strange, Clayface, R'as al Ghul, Riddler, Poison Ivy...

So hopefully (and I fully expect this to be the case at this early date) Slade Wilson is a part of Justice League, not the solo Batman film.

I can't call Justice League. There hasn't even been a trailer yet, just the San Diego bit that they made sure and say wasn't a trailer. It's been rather... public that they ripped it apart and redid it on the fly to make it... not what BvS was. The San Diego footage was interesting, if not wholly compelling.

My gut is that the goodwill leading up to BvS has dropped out after people have watched the movie, and Justice League without a Harley Quinn that dudes lust after and their girlfriends secretly lust after... is not going to do all that well. I see sub-Man of Steel numbers. But maybe Wonder Woman restores some of that goodwill. Possibly. Kind of a lame team to shove in the public eye. Aquaman isn't going to excite anybody, even if he's played by Kal Drogo. Nobody has any idea who the f*ck Cyborg is, let alone the actor who is playing him. Flash, they're mostly getting flak for going so... strange, against not only the Flash TV show, but the comic book Barry Allen. At least if Green Lantern were on the team there would be a little additional "whoa" factor beyond the Wonder Woman we met for all of 20 seconds in the last movie, but the Reynolds movie has WB visibly spooked.

It's kind of like if the Avengers came out... with Captain America and Black Widow and a bunch of who-cares. I dunno.

[CyberCubed]

They're not using the same Batman costume from BvS? That costume was perfect.

They are. It's in the "not trailer." But darker. The new goggle outfit is supposed to be the big, "Look at the cool alternate kickass outfit Batman wears at the end of Justice League when he's not f***in' around anymore."

But it looks even less cool than his anti-Superman suit. And derivative of Owlman.

How fitting is it, that after WB/DC trounced his creators lawsuit, Superman would be the one that puts an end to their (assumed) cash cow?
I mean, that would be, pretty ****ing meta.
Is Snyder secretly restoring balance to the force by publicly destroying what he loves?

Have I been wrong this whole time? Is Zack a real American hero?

Is Snyder actually saving Superman?

It's an idea for a cool scene - can't follow the action, or really see what the **** is happening through the bad photography. Shaky cam means "I'm not sure the scene looks good on it's own.. if I blur the action enough, it will feel life stuff is really happening.

A more competent director would properly work out how the shots flow together, and not want the image compromised.

The fight in Smallville (Not the one in Metropolis). Other than that, I'd be reaching for straws.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

The Smallville fight bothered me. Superman is totally fine to pummel those guys in an occupied street when a cornfield is right there!

[Andrew NDB]

It'd be predictable but not surprising if Superman doesn't show up til the end of the film. What are the chances of this movie getting his character right, this time?

I'd bet the farm on it. It's a trope of every simple Superman story ever... you know, the good guys will form up, the threat will be faced, things will look pretty grim for everyone, then cue the Superman music and Superman flying in to save the day for the win.

Probably just in time to stand next to the group for the slow-mo group shot before the end credits, and right before some terse, awkward Green Lantern cameo.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Hal Jordan will be singled out as a pilot who is sent with other military forces to combat the threat. Calling it now.

[ObiWanFan4life]

The Smallville fight bothered me. Superman is totally fine to pummel those guys in an occupied street when a cornfield is right there!

Yeah, that was a huge glaring flaw with the movie, but I was able to overlook it at first because I was enjoying the fight.....until Zod took the fight to Metropolis and it dragged on for hours on end, and don't me started on the ending of the film.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I'd be more impressed if they showed her in a setting that showed off the beauty of the ocean, and not a gray, dead beach. It's not even a convincing Photoshop.
Her costume looks fine though.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I don't care about the beach. SHE looks AMAZING.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Yes, I'm impressed with how liberal WB was in applying color to her costume! It's greener than we ever could have foreseen.

Since it's DCEU-related I'll just post this here.

Another director originally signed on to direct 'THE FLASH' has dropped out.
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/flash-movie-loses-dope-director-rick-famuyiwa-942604

Jeez... there must be wars being waged in the offices of WB studios for this to be happening. Again.
At this rate there's almost no way for the film to come out on its scheduled March 2018 release date.

Thoughts on this development? Does anyone even care?

As I said over on the thread dedicated to this exact movie... nobody cares. We have the CW show, which told an AMAZING 23-hour-long story covering Barry Allen and Eobard Thawne. And that was just the first season.

We don't need this movie.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Whoops, didn't realize we had a thread for that film.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Whoops, didn't realize we had a thread for that film.

No worries.

I'm feeling pretty skeptical. Prepared for the worst. I think I've finally joined the camp of "WB/DC is steering this ship aground."

We don't need a Flash movie.
The WWI setting seems odd for the Wonder Woman movie... obviously trying to avoid comparisons to Captain America 1, but the Holocaust seems much more appropriate regarding a reason for Diana to turn her back on humanity.
They're still trying too hard with Khal Drogo as Aquaman. Just let the character be the character; let him be his own badass, not a Game of Thrones badass.
Cutting so much Joker out of Suicide Squad.
And all of the problems with Batman V Superman (Martha, murderous Batman, Jesse Eisenberg)...

This is bad.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

This is why whenever something is marketed as "all-new, all-different!" I am immediately turned off. Taking something that works and 'remixing' it so that it matches the source in name only is a terrible way of building your world and rarely works out in the long run.

@DC, WB... wanna try something different? Worried audiences will get tired of seeing the same sorts of Batman movies a dozen times in ten years? Just make a BATMAN BEYOND movie. Have input from the original writers. Box office gold right there, and it'll be a good, maybe great, movie to boot. Don't try all this deconstruction nonsense, it just hurts your properties.

I'mma disagree with you on that and say "never" to Batman Beyond. Let's see them do horror Batman movies (Clayface, Manbat); siege Batman movies (Arkham Asylum); big sprawling adventures with "Hush" or "Court of Owls"; revenge movies with Red Hood or Huntress; legacy or family movies with Batgirls and Robins; mystery movies with Riddler...

So much untapped potential still. :tsmile:

Snyder is still set to direct JL 2 but is gonna do another movie after JL 1 so WB can make room for The Batman movie

[TMNTInsighter]

As much as I liked the Justice League series and as intriguing as a movie sounds, Zach Snyder is not a director I trust with my money. He has not made one great movie in his career, and it makes me hesitant to go see another one of his films in theaters.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Boy, assuming that there'll even BE a Justice League 2 is a loooottttt of confidence on WB's part.

[blindturtle02]

Boy, assuming that there'll even BE a Justice League 2 is a loooottttt of confidence on WB's part.

At this point, I'm really trying not to get my hopes up when it comes to seeing Darkseid kicking butt on the big screen during a JL sequel. Ah well, at least that'll probably happen in Young Justice season 3 and maybe the Injustice 2 game.

The CGI on Cyborg looks pretty awful. But the other costumes look decent, though I have no idea wtf is going on with Barry's.

[Cure]

Cyborg looks like he needs to gain some weight, in a weird way. Like his stomach is too flat and he has baby hands.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Sold on Batman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman, "Eh" on the Flash but this shot did decrease my apathy somewhat, and this is the best-looking shot of Cyborg yet... but I'm still not convinced on him. :trazz:

All in all, looking good.

[ToTheNines]

They all look horrid, save for Wondy. But Gadot looks totally bored.

[Andrew NDB]

Every picture of the Flash looks vastly different from one another.

[NinjaPug]

I hate everything I've seen from this movie.

WW is the only decent looking costume and like Nines said Gadot looks so disinterested.

He'll probably be in the movie just long enough to tell audiences to get ready for the exciting Green Lantern movie coming soon to theaters. Then he'll zoom off so that the actual plot can continue.

http://www.darkhorizons.com/justice-league-gets-more-momoa-nastier-car/

It's getting to be pretty funny/sad how every little behind-the-scenes bit shown by Snyder... it's all things people don't like or are things we publicly hated from the first one.

"Look at Batman's tactical armor, with goggles!" Awful, he looks like Owlman.

"Look at this really cool shot of Flash!" Terrible, you can see all the little cords in it.

"Look at Batman's new guns!" He shouldn't even have any, you hack.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I thought the Batmobile was supposed to be sleek. As usual, Snyder misses the point.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I think the cast is going to be good, for the most part. I don't like a lot of the looks... and I'm worried about the overall story.

What we need is another trailer. And as much as we hate it when trailers give too much away, I think we need to see more given away, just to talk some of us back.

I dunno. We'll see.

My genuine reaction to that clip. It's like a parody of Batman.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I see we're not uniting the Seven anymore...

We're down to, what, five? Plus resurrected Superman?

Is Batman allowed to shoot and/or Parademons? I mean, how does that work into his broken moral compass?

EDIT: And that is one creepy gargoyle. Yikes. No wonder everybody in Gotham goes nuts.

[Andrew NDB]

Is Batman allowed to shoot and/or Parademons? I mean, how does that work into his broken moral compass?

Probably Batman will be slaughtering them wholesale and there will be every indication in the film itself that they're alive and sentient beings. Then later, after the movie comes out, Snyder and company will defend this in interviews and stammer out something about, "The Parademons are just insects/robots, blah blah."

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Probably. It really is the mark of bad filmmaking when the director has to slip in extra sh!t into interviews so that his movie makes sense.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Seriously, that gargoyle is bothering me way more than the Parademon target practice.

And Commissioner Gordon wonders why Arkham Asylum is so large that it needs it own zip code... :trolleye:

Someone else mentioned this before but Snyder really is doubling down on things that people hated from BvS and seems to be going out of his way to promote said things. It's like he's throwing a middle finger to everyone that hated his terrible movie.

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I'll wait for the full trailer to make that judgement. What we've seen from JL so far is completely terrible, but aside from the color grading the atmosphere didn't seem THAT similar. Maybe that's due to the editors of the trailer though. We'll see.
