That's actually a pretty good approach. I don't want them to rush it, just figured it shouldn't take more than half a year for something in post production. Wonder if they filmed some scenes for Justice League already.

Think we knew the first part of this before
Curious to see what DC would get the John Wick duo for...

Given the context of the rest of the leak, I'm guessing something to do with the Red Hood and OH MY GOD THAT'D BE AMAZING.
John Wick has some of the best action I've seen in the last 5 years, seriously that disco scene hot damn!!

I would be 100% fine with a direct Under the Red Hood adaptation, no lie.
I guess the movie's finally completed:
Well, this explain the original music for the trailer then.
I want go even if Zack invited me
but yeah these kind of advanced screening usually have not completed affect and other stuff, you'll want to see it in it's final form. and it's just one year to go. Zac Efron as Jason Todd, Andrew Garfield as Dick Grayson, and
Jaden Smith
I don't know if the distinction matters, but I might as well point out that DC broke the taboo that "No one but Jason Todd, Bucky Barnes, and Uncle Ben stays dead" first with Red Hood, before Marvel brought back Bucky.
So "Winter Solider is basically Marvel's Red Hood"...

Too good to be true. Like, way too good.
I've worked on 30 second ads that have taken 6 months to complete. 30 seconds! Visual effects heavy films take a long, long time and are usually complete 4-6 months before release. Trailers also take months to complete, which is why you'll have the latest Avengers trailer with updated/improved VFX 20 days away from premiere - they used the latest finished footage a looooong while ago.
Further, there's some special effects that are done during this period, like miniatures and animatronics that have this weird overlap of "not-quite-production and not-quite-post-production. Interstellar's space shots used miniatures, but it was captured way after the principle cast had already shot their scenes.
To put things into perspective, Weta (Lord of the Rings, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) confirmed they were attached to BvS summer of 2014, and it was until December they clarified it was for one, single scene (perhaps akin to the first 25 minutes of Man of Steel, which took place on Krypton). You can literally have up to 200 people working on that one scene.
I don't think they're rushing it at all
I imagine it is also nerve-wracking.
I mean this is not just comic book or cinema, but I think without too much of an exaggeration one of fiction's biggest characters.
Who almost every single theme song is iconic in its own way
The Adam West Theme
Elfman's theme
Zimmer's Theme
I'd even say some of the animated series stuff.
Its big, scary shoes to fill

I was almost certain you're incorrect, but I looked it up. If we want to get technical (and what do comic book fans love more?
), unless I overlooked something the character of Winter Soldier first appeared in January 2005 (Captain America #1) and Red Hood - as Jason Todd - first appeared in February of 2005 (Batman #635). So Winter Soldier predates Jason Todd as Red Hood by barely a month. Of course, that's splitting hairs - lets just say the characters were created at the same time. That's actually a pretty funny coincidence.

Man the visual effects in this movie are going to be insane. I'm usually not a huge fan of CGI but in the right hands it is amazing.
Red Hood shouldn't have his own movie, but I wouldn't mind them adapting Under the Red Hood. Court of the Owls is what I really want to see.
if the rumours are true about
Jason Todd's memorial
Honestly I'm REALLY liking all this behind the scenes history already established for some characters, not everything needs a goddamn origin.

nobody cares. dofp scene was fun as hell, it's gonna be hard to explain his presence in apocalypse though seeing as how fast he was in the prior film
quicksilver in age of ultron isn't looking nearly as entertaining, though I imagine his cocky attitude will make up for it at least.
hoping the flash movie takes inspiration from xmen and the CW tv series instead.
I think you're forgetting Hush storyline which put it out into the zeitgeist two years prior.I was almost certain you're incorrect, but I looked it up. If we want to get technical (and what do comic book fans love more?
You'd think that with all the additional time to work on it because of the delay, they would have finished most of the vfx stuff by now. But no, I'm guessing it';s still mostly incomplete.
Even Age of Ultron is still being fixed/changed 1-2 months before release
Whoa, didn't catch that. Went back to watch them both and it looks like they re-shot that part.
Imagine just reading material.
Also he kind of looks like Hank from Breaking Bad

He could just be at a DC office (watching the movie or something)

Original tweet is deleted, so it holds some credence.
WB probably realized dude was going HAM on his twitter and sent Superman to straighten him up.

Let's see, stuff in that stack that hasn't been confirmed for the DCCU...
Can't see what the 3rd to last and last one are.
- Nightwing
- Talon
- Red Hood
- Swamp Thing
- Huntress
- Birds of Prey

I think Swamp thing is rumored/confirmed for Dark Universe, but that doesn't mean he can't have his own movie.
Think he's just as the DC office and they have those comics on display for inspiration? or just to hand out as a gift. It seems like an odd assortment though. Nightwing #27 is an old issue and there's a bunch of #1's.
If it is actual characters, then holy shit. DC is going more ham on this than Marvel is, probably because they own all their characters. I'm seriously impressed, I didn't expect them to use very many characters from the comics.

I think the third to last is Flash.

You forgot Superboy.
According to Aquaman, there isn't even a script for it yet

Third to last looks like Huntress/Power Girl: World's Finest.
EDIT: I didn't even notice Flash in the pile. Good call, Dan.
Also, all of Tom's BvS tweets are now gone.

Guess filming starts early next year, hope it doesn't get pushed back. My feeling is that they pushed back BvS so there wouldn't be such a large gap between it's release and subsequent DC universe movies.
Fuck!! We were living by his teases, WHAT NOW!!??
WB ninjas worse than Nintendo's.

As long as they don't get to Ayer, we'll be cool.
He hasn't twitted anything since April 1, so I'm gonna guess he got shut down too.

(((((((((((((((((((They'll never shut Rock down. They're too scared to ask him.
That could be it. The excruciating three-year wait in between Man of Steel and BvS will be justified by having two DC films a year from 2016 onwards!

Gotta start up dat train and keep it going. Given all the casting in Suicide Squad going on & rumors with BvS, it really feels like those two will be the big film that launches the universe. MoS was so dry on universe building. What did we get, a lexcorp truck and a wayne satellite? But yeah I'd prefer the film now, or last year, dry gaps between their films be damned.

no way those comics are hinting at what's to come. Nightwing...phew.
Rob Pattinson plz
It's true that Man of Steel was light in terms of world-building and 'fan service', but yeah, if rumours are to be believed / and as we've all speculated, the events of the film will be a major catalyst for the introduction of the DC universe/ BvS. Batman coming out of retirement to face Supes, Zod's world engine affecting the home lands of Aquaman and Wonder Woman, etc
I bet they outsource to the same group. An ancient clan that, in modern times, has rented out their services to various media companies trying to stop internet leaks.
You just be on twitter having a normal day, tweeting shit to fans, and the next thing you know you hear footsteps on the roof like
"Heard you been twitpic'ing shit, bruh..."
Girl...bye.
Anyway I'm now requesting a solo Rucka Batwoman film that then leads into Justice League Dark which she leads etc
