It looks like Toys "R" Us is getting a metallic 2-pack of the Batman and Superman Funko Pop! figures.

Looks like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Knightmare Soldier, Knightmare Batman, Aquaman, and blue Aquaman. The rest there are Star Wars figures.

I should have seen that coming. Haha.

Anyway, I'm guessing it'll be The Flash at 8 PM, then the Legends of Tomorrow special at 9 PM, and the Dawn of the Justice League special at 9:30 PM.

My Target got in two of the three Lego sets, so I snagged the Batmobile one. Also got the item numbers for the action figures whenever we get those in stock.

Yeah, that's what I was guessing, too.

Agent Carter has a two-hour premiere at the same time as all of this, so I don't know what to watch. Tuesday's are way overstuffed with things to watch.

Not sure if it makes it better or easier for you, but AC is 2 hours from 9-11

So could maybe DVR first hour and catch up on it during the 2nd hour

Oh 9-11? Well, at least The Flash is safe. I don't have DVR, and my brothers (who I watch all of this with) will surely want to watch Agent Carter.

They'd probably be afraid of spoilers for Legends of Tomorrow, and neither one is really looking forward to Batman v Superman (or the rest of the movies). My younger brother is iffy about what he's seen, though he's hoping the movie is good, and my older brother seems to hate it all, and I don't think he wants to watch it. They both make fun of it often. I'm the only one that's excited for the movie.

This throwaway on Reddit gave a review of the film after an advanced screening. Take with a grain of salt

Heres the full thread

Guy says
Hal Jordan is in a big drone fight at the end. Then reveals himself as GL at the end. Played by Dan Amboyer. Never heard of him.
I doubt this is true.

I call the biggest bullshit ever.

EDIT: On the other hand, after some reading, it might be legit.

I'll also add, speaking as a person well versed in BS leaks, I'd say this is the first believable BvS leak. Not to preclude the possibility it is a well made fake.

The overall review looked like shit pieced together from the trailers, but the individual answers seemed pretty convincing. Although, i am confused if
The Knightmare sequence is PTSD. Why would Bruce dream about those flying things? I was convinced its a vision Wonder Woman has, and maybe Superman is under mind control in it.

What makes this more believable than other rumors? Pretty much everything I read I read somewhere else as a theory.


Edit: Fuck me, this guy is hyping me way too much.

Edit2: Made a thread

It is suspect the more I read. If nothing else, the person did their research on how to avoiding directly contradicting known facts. Last popular leak was BS out the gate.

Okay, reading
Vic Stone becomes Cyborg and fights in BvS is overplaying his hand.

Some of the stuff he says lines up with what that other leaker said the other week on IMDB and then some stuff doesn't.

This is the biggest tell. That guys a no-name, and yet he's coming out saying
Dan Amboyer is playing Green Lantern
. A semi casual wouldn't name him, would just say. "Hey, he shows up! Didn't recognise the guy playing him though". Thats when you realise the knowledge is pieced together by someone following rumours.

But...but Wikipedia says it's true.

Some non spoiler reactions:

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor -
“Multi-layered, reminds me of Heath’s Joker. He stole every scene he was in, and left you wanting more. I loved how much I hated him.”

On overall impressions of the film -

“There were about 20-30 of us during the screening, but everyone was cheering and happy with the film. I believe this film will be critically praised, naysayers will eat their words. It is that good.”


“It will win the general audience over and instill faith on the DC brand, helping the solo films.”


“BvS is the greatest comic book movie since The Dark Knight.”

Yeah, not buying it. He says that Batman
places Superman in a kryptonite cell
. I dunno, this sounds too goofy for me, hoping it isn't true.

I can guarantee that there is someone on GAF that's seen a press screening and is angrily pulling his hair because he can't say anything.
