I'm still waiting for that "series" of DCU-based films that was alluded to in the recent NYT Kevin Tsujihara profile, but I suppose it's fair to give them until SDCC for that.

For reference: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/03/3...o-is-bullish-on-the-big-screen.html?referrer=

I think they've made that "We have a whole slate of DC movies we want to make" remark every year for the last couple years.

Also, had to LOL at this quote:



Assuming WSJ is correct about JL not coming before 2018: three films in six years (2013-2018) is "quickly catching up" with Marvel Studios? Maybe there could be another film in 2017, we'll see.

Last year at Comic Con, the rumor being passed around was that WB was going to announce Superman/Batman for 2015, which would be a followed by a solo Flash movie. They never announced the latter, but since the former was right on the money maybe Flash is still in the works?
 
That would probably be the screenplay for Alien Resurrection

Hardly. Not a Whedon fanboy here, but I feel that script (which was changed a lot) and movie are largely misunderstood, especially considering where the series went and that it was a 4th movie basically doing the same thing as the previous 3, but alas, that is not a discussion for this thread.
 
Nah, it probably won't.

But every now and again, a man gotta have a relatively minor thing to zero in on and inflate to disproportionate levels. :)

No I don't blame you in the least bit about being upset about not getting that title the instant this damn movie was announced.

It'll probably be some very underwhelming bloated title. Something that can fit under a pepsi label
 
There was a rumor going around the Arrow thread that WB is waiting to see the reaction to The Flash spinoff before they make a decision.

I agree with that. I really like Arrow and wouldn't mind him crossing off into the movies. Don't know if he should have his own solo movies but wouldn't mind seeing him in a team up movie.

It all depends on if the Flash show is successful. if people really like it and the guy playing him then WB should use them in the movies.
 
Makes me wonder if at some point they're going to announce Zack Snyder being the possible head of the cinematic universe, even on films he's not directing. Having him direct all three films, so far, seems like a good idea if they're all going to be connected. Better to have some consistency and that could be why he's directing..

Hopefully. This doesn't stop other films from being done in between MoS2 and Justice League. They can announce others at SDCC if they wanted or closer to MoS2's release. They said they wanted to make others but that were lower in budget. These are the big budget films it seems. Others don't have to be 200 million budget films or take as long as these films will take.
 
Not really. While certainly Batman and Superman are two of the most well known of all superheroes to the public at large, the rest of the crew, certainly not as much.
Flash runs really fast

Wonder Woman spins around and has a lasso of truth/bdsm

Green Lanten was in that shitty movie

Aqua man is lame and talks to fish

Green Arrow is a hunk who shoots arrows

There, I think we got all the public perceptions of those superheroes.

According to Deadline the Flash pilot has been getting "rave reviews."
 
A new Spawn movie has more chances than Justice League at being good.
 
This actually makes a lot of sense for WB. Spinning off solo movies from a potentially successful Justice League movie could make a lot more money than starting solo movies to build up to Justice League. Just take a look at all the Marvel properties post Avengers. Pretty much doubled their grosses. Plus, it could rehabilitate franchises like Green Lantern.
 
At least the action and visuals will be awesome.

I think he handled multiple characters really well in Watchmen, but then again I watched the 3hr directors cut lol.
 
Hopefully the general public likes it. The guy playing him is like 22 or something. He would stand out against the rest of the cast that will be in their 30s by the time the movies come out.

They've already introduced the actor/character on Arrow and the general consensus was very favorable, which was kinda surprising considering most people didn't like the casting. Weather that'll transfer over to the series remains to be seen. But yeah, most of the people who watch Arrow fell in love with the actor/character already.
 
This is how I feel too and damn 2018. They will be so far behind Marvel the superhero thing might be played out by then.

Over 10 years of superhero movies, many of which are far worse than anything Marvel or WB have been putting out recently.

I don't think the bubble's bursting any time soon.
 
Haters can hate all day but even his shittiest movies are visually fantastic. And why does everyone put all the blame on Snyder with Man of Steel when he didn't write it? From a pure directorial standpoint i will take Snyder all day every day on super hero films.

Bring in a competent writer, that's the problem.

Though you really don't need separate movies to build up to Justice League, some of those perceptions are pretty problematic.
 
I'm so damn sick of hearing the numerous posts about how bad this movie and all movies after will be in every DC/WB thread. Can all you people just stay out instead of typing how much of a mess you think they will be. We get it. You hate Snyder. You hated MoS. You hate everything associated with these films. Point taken.
 
You know, why the hell hasn't anyone made a Shazam movie yet? I mean goddamn, there's a reason it was once like, the biggest comic book among kids.

it works in circles. there is always a large outpouring of hate in comic movie threads. asm2 is the latest case
 
I don't know how popular this opinion is on GAF (most of my friends seem to hate the idea) but I hope the Arrowverse is merged with this universe. I see absolutely no reason to recast Green Arrow and especially Flash for this movie when the public perception of the guys we got now is good to great.

I think it's fine to be skeptical but it's also humorous to see so many people who think they know for sure how a production is going to turn out years and years ahead of time. It's really ignorant.
 
these threads really are a chore to read, aren't people tired of the constant back and forth over Marvel does this, DC does that and the constant assumption that the movies will be shit when not a single person has set foot in front of a camera?

anyway, merge with the Arrow universe or BUST

What's especially interesting is seeing how there are different groups dedicated to hating on each "faction" of comic superhero movies. You got your WB/DC haters, Marvel Studios haters, Non-Marvel Studios Marvel haters, and then another group that hates all this stuff but can't resist posting in threads about it anyway.

Playing tit-for-tat with Marvel and DC is a fanboy slap fight that's raged for decades and, much like the characters both companies are known for, will likely outlive us all.

I just everyone would find some new material.
 
I'm just trying to figure out what could possibly threaten Earth that Superman would need the help of the Justice League to fight off. I mean the dude singlehandedly fought off an alien invasion. They might have made him a bit too powerful.
 
No, these threads will never cease to be back and forth arguements.


Even after this fucking movie is released on dvd. These bickering will continue.

Only in the coming months with possible costume reveals will it just grow. A giant stagnant growth of fanboyish bickering the likes of we haven't seen before.
 
Why? So many people say this and never give reason for it. Or if they do it's "because that's not how Marvel did it."

The way Marvel did it is how a superhero team would naturally be told. You introduce individual characters first then throw them together. What makes you think the inverse of this will be effective? You think people are going to flock to Justice League and then afterwards expect them to go see individual movies? Do you realize how much shit they are leaving off the table by doing it the way they are?
 
Please, not Snyder. What makes the MCU films so great is how fun they are. MoS (and all of Snyder's films) take themselves far too seriously for their source material.
 
The writing was bad in Man of Steel but who do I blame for the depressing visuals of the entire movie? That blueish filter on everything made the whole thing depressing. That person shouldn't be invited back for the sequels.

I thought Man of Steel was easily the most fun Superman movie. Just because it has a grittier color palette and aesthetic doesn't make it boring. Last I recall, the last half hour or so was nothing but action. It's a pretty fun flick.

I don't think I like your idea of "fun".

I think he's talking about lighthearted moments.
