Why? Sounded plausible to me. Fits the pieces fairly well together. And some of the stuff did sound pretty "Whedon."

We can only hope.
If that rundown of the plot is anywhere close to accurate, that might be the final nail in the coffin for the DCCU as-is. Are there any other DC movies in production right now other than Aquaman? After that's released, I would respect DC/WB if they went ahead with the Flashpoint movie as it would be the perfect opportunity to reset the whole goddamn thing, a sort of acknowledgement along the lines of "we f#cked up, let's start over". Might as well lean into it and do it big before trying again with a new cinematic universe, keeping whatever worked from the last one (so far just Wonder Woman, hopefully Aquaman) |

But there is nothing actually in motion, yes?
They may have a rough draft of a script, and that's probably it. And honestly that's probably as far as they should go with it, it just seems like a really bad idea, like someone's pet project that doesn't really have any wider appeal. Save The Rock for something better. |

It's real. Was confirmed by people who saw the movie. Soundtrack listing also confirmed it.

Yeah, ViewerAnon was confirmed as legit a while back now. I'm still optimistic it can play well on screen. I'm not expecting great, but "good enough" would be a decent victory for DC/WB after BvS and the mess this movie's production has been.
JL really should have been delayed and reworked from the ground up after BvS crashed and burned. I know firing Snyder whilst BvS was still in cinemas could have hurt the film but after it's first week drop the writing was on the wall anyway. and yes they were about to start filming but I can't imagine the delay costs would have been as substantial as the reshoot costs anyway. But hindsight is 20/20, we just gave up hope they were able to make the best out of what they have at this point. I think what I'm happiest about is that pretty much all of the Superman scenes were reshot by Whedon. MoS and BvS showed that Snyder never truly got the character, so I'm glad they're trying to fix that. |

Rumor around the web is Justice League will get an Extended Cut like BVS and Suicide Squad when it comes out on blu ray.

I'm sure it will, but I don't see how it'll fix anything. If the scenes they have to work with are garbage, adding more won't fix anything.

Well Batman V Superman's Extended Cut is considered miles better than the abomination that was the theatrical Cut so who knows it might be good.

It's like 5% better. It's problems are still pretty fundamental (Lex, Batman mass-murdering, etc.).

Yeah it's narrative flows better but all the major flaws in story and characterisation are still there. Plus it drags. WB made the right call that it needed to be shorter, the problem was whoever edited it (Snyder? WB?) cut all the wrong stuff. They cut out stuff important to the narrative like the extended Africa stuff & Clark's investigation into Batman and left in things like the knightmare vision, JL emails and that stupid Batmobile scene (okay I get that would be hard to cut due to Batman and Superman's meeting but God it needed some serious fixing and just doesn't work)

I assume it's true. Honestly had someone leaked te BVS script based on what we got as the final product we would have been wishing it was fake too.

I haven't looked at the spoilers, but I will say that I think some folks here and elsewhere are actively looking for reasons to create an Internet circle jerk about how bad this thing is going to be, and none of you have even seen the opening credits.
I'm not saying you should go see or pay for something if the trailers or official promotional material rub you the wrong way, but for Christ's sake, formulate your own f*cking opinions. Even if it bombs, it's just a movie. It doesn't negate any of the older films, comics, or cartoons you liked as a kid. To paraphrase a great man, "it's only movie; why you heff to be mad?"

Honestly, a movie with Batman VS Superman in the title should have been considered the best superhero movie ever made bar none with very to little divide. Instead they ****ed up what was to be a guaranteed winner creating such a huge divide between the fanbase. It's just..... it's Batman and Superman in the same movie... How the hell do you **** that up? Now it's the Justice League, finally getting their own movie. How do you **** that up? They always seem to find a way. It's almost as if they worked extra hard to make sure the Wonder Woman movie was good to avoid mega feminist backlash and misogyny accusations like the female Ghostbusters movie. I just wish they put the same amount of effort into the other movies. Hell, Wonder Woman was the best part of BVS because you KNOW there would have been hell to pay if they ****ed that up and accidentally made Wonder Woman the worst part of BVS.
