Official Justice League Movie

[ZariusTwo]

Here's the video. It cuts off before it ends, but looks pretty swank

That's the problem with starting with end-game DCU but I guess it's fine they started with end game DCU since it seems to be ending.


The Amazon controversy also reached my timeline on twitter, but it seems their echo chamber keeps getting smaller, most people aren't taking their BS anymore. I was surprised.

Considering Darkseid hasn't actually shown up yet...

I dunno, I'm down for it. I kept expecting Avengers 3 to be Masters of Evil, Thanos recruiting the Mandarin, Abomination or Leader, Red Skull, et al to distract the Avengers while he went on his Infinity Geocache hunt...

So if DC wants to do that instead, I'm interested!

Just caught how the Amazons look in their armor.
Shocking no one, I'll be waiting for this movie to hit netflix before watching.
No amount of awesome from Gadot or Momoa could get me to pay for this out of pocket.

Eugh. So they're really having Eisenberg do a do-over? Terrible idea and a "Lex on the run from the law" seems perilously close to the FAKE Hackman Luthor.

Just over the Amazon armor?

Wait so Justice League is not about Darkseid? Wasn't the lead up of BvS that Darkseid was coming? Is it just parademons attacking/remaking Avengers 1 but Darkseid actually using his real army instead of a proxy attack like Thanos?
that sounds lame.

The Synder'verse isn't for me, but I was going to overlook that in the hopes that Gadot and Momoa could distract me enough, but...nah. This is the straw.

This change screams louder that this isn't a movie made for PlasCafs.
There's no amount of fanwankery that makes this costume change make sense for me.

I'm good. You boys have fun.

Eisenberg as Lex is still the thing I hate most about the DCEU. Recast with a shaven Karl Urban!!!

Steppenwolf, not Darkseid. How... how are you just finding this out?

I don't follow spoilers, I didn't think they would send a Darkseid General to lead the JL film after hinting at Darkseid, they should've gone all in or nothing.


I really like Eisenberg's Luthor.

Not spoilers, trailers. It's been a publicly officially confirmed choice for months now.

And HOW DARE YOU like Eisenberg's Lex!?

I'm sure it was going to be Darkseid when the plan was still for the movie to be "Justice League Part 1" with "Part 2" to follow. Now it's just, "Steppenwolf is coming! Oh good, we stopped him. It sure is good that no other Evil Gods are coming like Darkseid!"

What do you mean? What change? The change is fairly small.

In WW:



In JL:



I get that the boobs are a bit more accentuated in JL (the tall one on the right in both pics there goes from flat-chested to a D cup, for example) and shiny. But I dunno. It's been 100 years since WW. Who's to say the Amazonians didn't adopt a bit more leathers and a bit less cloth? Particularly after getting a bunch of them machine-gunned to death in WW? And the actually armored Amazonians in WW actually seem like they have pointier boobs.

I'm good. You boys have fun.

Hah... I'm not so sure about that.

[plastroncafe]

As I said, no amount of fanwank is going to work for me.
You feel free to justify this to yourself however you like.

I'm not interested in justifying it, I'm just curious what the issue is. It's just the boob accentuation?

It's not practical armor.
These are the famed Amazonian Warriors from antiquity.
They watched their sisters die at the hands of firearms.
Why exactly does their armor cover less skin now, as opposed to then?



It's a terrible design, which is right at home in this particular corner of the universe. Pretty above all else.

On the right? I'm not sure that's their armor at all. And it'd be pretty weird if they'd all be walking around Themyscira in full battle armor at the exact moment Steppenwolf shows up.

[plastroncafe]

Sure looks like that's what they're wearing to fight.

Either way, I won't really know until it comes out on Netflix.
Maybe I'll be wrong and pleasantly surprised.

Right but... that's Themyscira. Steppenwolf just shows up there. They wouldn't have time to get all of their good armor on, they're ambushed. It's when they regroup and stalk him off-Themyscira that they put on "the good stuff."

Here's part of the end credits scene...

Somebody LOOKS more like the part, but he still has that voice.

[Spike Spiegel]

Those costumes are still fairly tame compared to the ones in some eras of the comics.



I don't really understand the idea that they should be more modest because of the historical Amazons and the practicality of the armor in battle. That's like comparing Marvel's Thor to the actual Norse myths. In both cases you have something with a long history that is spun into a 20th century pop culture icon. There are going to be some adaptational differences. People in this flick can be immortal, punch holes in tanks, biologically interface with computers, and talk to fish, but midriff baring armor is strange?

Besides, we're talking about a version of the Amazons that was dreamed up by a polyamorous dude with a bondage fetish.

Also, when you all discuss spoilers, can you please keep the details of those discussions within the spoiler tags?

Again, people can fanwank this all they like, the fact remains that I don't see female power fantasy when I see leather bikinis.
It's not for me.

Enjoy if it's for you.
