Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice - Page 19

A bunch of new rumors from "A friend of a friend who says they saw the script", so take it for what it's worth. They contradict some of the earlier rumors, but also sound pretty plausible, and actually pretty cool.

Some of the biggest rumors, in brief...

Spoiler:

Interesting stuff. If even any of this stuff is true at all, I once again have to give them a ton of credit for sticking so closely to the source material.

I love all of those ideas... and am holding out hope that an eventual Batman movie will adapt "Under the Hood" with some epic Jason Todd murdering vigilante action!

~~Leo656~~ · 01-21-2015, 11:35 AM

Eh. I actually hope the solo Batman films focus on younger, pre-retirement Batman. Ultimately, Jason coming back to life in the comics served zero purpose other than the initial shock of it. Nothing really came of it, so the movies can leave him dead for all I care. Jason's one of those "worth more dead than alive" characters. Like Uncle Ben. Sure, it's all fake, you could bring 'em back, but it kind of breaks the story.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 01-21-2015, 11:43 AM

Given the existence of Lazarus Pits (and not the Superboy-punching-reality bullcrap), I think it's perfectly acceptable to have brought back Jason Todd. As long as it is not back for the sake of being back (i.e. death has no meaning in comics) and instead goes even further to show the tragedy of Batman's decision...

But then again, except for TMNT, I don't read comics at all. Great source material for television and movies, but comics always revert to the status quo and never see any permanent character development.

According to Comic Book Movie, We might be getting a Superbowl Spot tonight.

That would be nice. Here's hoping. I'm impatient as f*ck for this movie.

And you cats know me, I generally don't get excited over anything.

*NinjaPug* · 02-01-2015, 06:07 PM

Doubt WB would pay $4.5 million to promote a movie that doesn't come out for 15 months.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-01-2015, 06:26 PM

Never know, it'd be a good way to get some buzz going. "Never too soon" and all that. Probably is a little farfetched but I'd enjoy it.

*NinjaPug* · 02-01-2015, 06:34 PM

Oh, I'd love it. Just don't think it'll happen tonight. WB doesn't typically buy ad space for the SB either.

Either way, rumor has it we're getting a trailer soon.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-01-2015, 06:43 PM

True story. And when they did with Green Lantern, it bit 'em in the ass.

I'm just scraping for anything and everything about this flick. I'm glad they're taking their sweet time with it but selfishly, I want it yesterday. I'd settle for a 30-second teaser. ANYTHING.

Like, everything gives me bad vibes. This gives me good vibes. That is so rare, that I'm super impatient for more.

Ladies and Gentlemen say hello to the King Of Atlantis from Zack Snyder's Twitter.

Helloooooo Aquaman!!

He should notify Stargate Command where Atlantis is now tho. Just in case.

*CyberCubed* · 02-20-2015, 02:16 AM

So Aquaman is in this movie too now? I wish they would hold off the Justice League stuff for the sequels and focus on the Batman/Superman and Wonder Woman relationships first.

The King of Atlantis is truly, outrageous!

I just hope he isn't grim broody dark-dark, but that looks like what Warner Bros/DCU is going for with their new movies and Snyder's vision. Personally not a good fit for movies based on the DCU, I'd prefer something more brighter and action comedy orientated. If Aquaman have a similar personality like he did in the Brave and the Bold cartoon, I'd be very happy.

Buuuut, he'll probably have the personality like Namor...

*NinjaPug* · 02-20-2015, 09:05 AM

I hate the tagline but really like the look of the character. That picture looks filtered and I bet he'll look a lot "greener" in the movie.

My only question....where is his seahorse?

*Slade* · 02-20-2015, 10:20 AM

Pic looks great so I can't really complain, but I really wanna see him blonde.

He definitely makes a pretty good Aquaman.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 02-20-2015, 10:31 AM

I don't like it... where's all the color?

Honestly I liked that orange suit Aquaman wore.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 02-20-2015, 10:35 AM

I would have liked to see him look a little closer to the comics, personally.

Either the orange scales or blonde hair. But hey, I don't judge until I see stuff in action so we'll see.

Spoiler: - Brainiac is the secondary villain; Luthor discovers how to use the Brainiac AI to control Superman, leading to the fight between Superman and Batman. - Earlier rumors stated that Luthor was experimenting with Kryptonian DNA and would in turn create Doomsday. This batch of rumors state that instead, Superboy and Bizarro are the end result of experiments merging Superman's DNA with Lex's and Zod's, respectively. - Luthor's battlesuit based on Kryptonian battle armor may be in the movie, but whether or not he actually uses is it unclear. - Batman retired because the Joker killed Jason Todd seven years earlier, and although he isn't seen, it's hinted that Grayson as Nightwing is active in this universe. - Barbara Gordon as Oracle works as a computer tech for the GCPD and is an assistant to Batman. Contrary to earlier rumors, this batch states that Jim Gordon is not dead, simply not present in the film. - Luthor's master plan involves having the President of the US assassinated for his pro-Superman stance. This possibly hints at Luthor plotting his own run at the White House. All of these are highly plausible, but again, so are all the other rumors. The biggest thing that strikes me, is how they contradict the Doomsday rumors from earlier. What I think, is that a little of all of it may be true, and some of the "leaks" may actually have been things that are instead planned for the Justice League movie. So I think both Brainiac and Doomsday are extremely likely to appear, but not in the same movie. I think one of them is going to be the villain in BvS, and the other one will be the villain in Justice League. Interesting stuff. If even any of this stuff is true at all, I once again have to give them a ton of credit for sticking so closely to the source material.
