Exactly. I wonder what the RT would have been...

It's possible it's some sort of a JL X Thriller crossover, based on that wide shot.
I think it probably would have reviewed closer to MoS. The movie is still too dour and oddly paced to be a general crowd pleaser or critic darling so it's stuck in that strange space where people who like it really like it but people who don't really don't.

Dat new pic... whew. Will have to do until the trailer drops.
What did he mean by this?

How am I supposed to defend Gal Gadot when they release pics like that
Think the costumes for the middle three look weird and a little off, specifically flash and other dude. I dunno, maybe I'm in the minority.

Apparently there's an Aquamarine art piece floating around too, though idk if it's official.

I wonder how fast this Flash will be. He better be the fastest on the team because Superman is pretty damn fast.

Well the costumes are nothing new so I don't think that really makes the picture bad. The lighting and composition and pose though, those are kind of bad.
I hope they only tease Supes in the trailers. Please please don't show his actual resurrection in the trailers
Also, Cavill got nominated for Razzie too didn't he? But he was pretty good in UNCLE and fine in BvS, but oh well, just the Razzie.

I agree. WW looks especially awful.
Flash will always look...ugh...
The color and contrast balance in the cleaned up photo isn't official, right? It might end up looking better on film.
So far, it's felt like kryptonians have the ability to speed blitz but can't perform delicate tasks with their speed.

The costumes are fine, but the poses are sorta strange. I wanna know what everyone's looking at (parademons?)

Does Ray Fisher actually look like that or has it be glossed up, he has such a babyface in that pic. Looks like a teen, as in high school
Maybe that Teen Titans movie isnt so questionable

He had a letterman jacket on in the preview footage, so he's at least high school or college aged in this. No idea how old Fisher actually is.

Nope. If the set reports were correct, it's meant to be a handmade/homemade mish-mash. That looks like a handmade mish-mash.
It looks like shit no matter it's origin that's the problem.
It reminds me of the live action transformer movies.
That is not a good thing to be reminded of.
Because it's supposed to look awful... He gets a costume upgrade at the end of the movie.

And HQ version
Tactical Batsuit and Aquaman look dope. Flash, despite the ramshackle construction, is growing on me. Wonder Woman looks like she's on stage at an E3 press conference. I said my piece on Cyborg and higher quality hasn't helped.

She looks like a wax figure no?
The batgod master strategy is to use her as bait

Okay, Ray Fisher looks 16 years old in that picture and he's the shortest despite being 6'3 in real life.
Teen Titans movie now

Batman looks incredible besides the goggles.

EDIT: No, I'm not getting angry and saying dumb shit over costume designs.
We've seen the final suit in artworks. It's better, but still, I dunno, not "flash" enough.

What artwork?
Maybe Deadpool 2 will bomb and we will finally be able to unite the seven.

I get the sense the only part of the final act shown is a brief glimpse in the BTS video.
Part speculation, part reading stories on production,
Part speculation, part reading stories on production,
the JL join together in a specific order. Starts with Batman and WW. Batman recruits the other three. Flash immediately joins. Cyborg joins later, I believe in the scene with Gordon. Those four go underground to investigate parademons. At a point Aquaman joins them. Scenes of those five going to the batcave. Later, it appears Flash, Aquaman, and WW are in Metropolis. So, sounding like a hefty amount without Superman.
As it should be following BvS

I think im done with DC movie threads on gaf,
I just can't anymore.
1 person says the new Batsuit looks like Injustice garbage, the next calls it a throwback to B&R's IceSuit.

I think the Flash looks better here than in most of the other stills. I think he'll look better in motion. Batman reminds me of Arkham Knight Batman. I do agree WW looks a little weird.

I know folks tend to be a little down on Momoa, but I have a feeling he's gonna body this role, if looks alone are a thing to go by. Definitely looking forward to seeing him in action..
Like a wax figure lol..it's weird. But hey, pictures and all that. Says nothing about the final product. Here's hoping..

I really like Batman's new costume in this pic, heavy Arkham Origins or Noel vibes going on.
It's just a shame Gadot looks like she was caught mid-blink in that pic.

If you're saying I only read people's opinions because I agree with them, you'd be wrong. Of course I'm going to read people who thoughts line up with my own but I don't read Wesley Morris and Armond White because of confirmation bias. Those guys have viciously torn down movies I've liked. Go read what Morris wrote about MoS.
I just think there's more to movies than simply talking about the mechanics of films like the writing, the editing and the cinematography or whatever. Those guys are coming at films from a different perspective, one that's more about the messages and the intents behind the picture that's being shown to you. They're different interpretations and I'm more interested in hearing about movies from that angle.
I don't know if that makes any sense since I'm kind of rushing through my thoughts. But you get the idea?
Someone like A.O. Scott approaches films differently than someone like, say, AngryJoe. Guess who I will pay attention to more.
Yeah...not feeling that photo. Digging Aquaman and Batman, but the other three?
I really wish that I was excited about Justice League or Wonder Woman, but I can't find any motivation. Sucks because the Justice League show was one of the first comic book related things I watched. That and a book of some of the first books of certain Marvel characters got me into comics

Posted in the actual picture thread on OT but I'll stick my two cents here too.., I think it looks fine.
Batman and Wonder Woman both look great. I really like the 'Rocksteady' look of Afflek's Batman particular costume as we know he supposedly rocks a couple during the film.
I know what people are saying about Flash's suit but it is (per the set visits) the early prototype he made himself before he's furnished with something better by Wayne Tech. I imagine the 'finished article' at the end of the film will be closer to the comics etc.
Aquaman seems cloaked in shadow compared to the others but I think he's going to really work on screen with Momoa's physicality much like Jackman's Wolverine.
Cyborg...., ehhhh. I have a feeling that, like Flash, his 'costume' will evolve over the course of the film. But if it doesn't...., this feels like the first real misstep for the DCU in terms of design. He is one step removed from a sci-fi horror monster. How on Earth did WB think that this could be a character that could be spun off into his own individual solo film/franchise like Wonder Woman or Aquaman?! What kid wants to sleep in a duvet or have a poster on their wall with a terrifying cyborg on it? They managed to make the character work in Teen Titans Go
If, as rumoured, they are planning to turn the planned Cyborg solo film into a The Titans film then he'd probably work as part of an ensemble but at the moment???? It's going to be fascinating to see how this pans out.
