Flashpoint had a thing where with Superman, Batman, and Flash sidelined by RF's machinations, the world's premiere hero was Cyborg. They could give that some added focus/perspective time, make him the co-star.
It makes sense that they are "expendable" and willing to do whatever to reduce their sentence.
You would battle darkseid too if that meant cutting 30 years of your jail sentence.
You would probably die first tho you aint having any powers.

As I really liked Mission Impossible 3, i could dig SS2 being a JJ Joint. And have Doctor Light (the rapey one) on the squad to justify the constant lens flares.
Personally, one of the reasons I hope Justice League is really good. I want it put to bed that this is the only way to do these type of movies because for some odd reason decades of ensemble flicks haven't proven you can introduce an entire team of people in a single movie.
Seriously. It's like the Ocean films don't exist.

Why not?
Ocean Films didn't try and have setup films beforehand either

I was gonna watch 12 Angry Men the other night, but then I realized that they were going to try to introduce 12 different Angry Men in one film, without any setup films. It's total BS. You can't just introduce 12 characters like that without 12 origin films.

the 48 movie slog that is the 47 Ronin epic series
Well, Ben's return to the role still seems in question.
Then you've got Leto signing up for some other comic adaptation with Sony.
I think if that encounter were to happen, it would've happened in Ben's movie.
I am still waiting on the Magnificent Seven solo film prequels before I ever watch one of those!
How's that relevant though? Would you have preferred they have no setup films at all?
Than try and set up, kinda not do so hot, then have their teamup film with only two characters having a film to themselves before hand and introducing everyone else, yeah
Rather do setup for most of the team or just go straight to teamup and do intros there
I'm not sure why you can't do both... Like set up some chars, who can form the core and then introduce others
Or did we love the Hawkeye, Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Vision origin movies?
You know what, nevermind. Not worth a fight.
I just don't think there's an one-size fit all method to movie making
I literally said do set up for most of the team
Most
Not all
Most
Like in my mind, if they did a setup all the way, you do Batman, Supes, WW, Flash. Have a reference to Aquaman or Cyborg/whatever black character they want here in one or two of em
Have them be properly introduced in JL
That's it
Agree to disagree I guess. I dont see a big difference in having some people setup vs "most" vs none. At least with some, you don't have to spend extra time setting up half the team. You're basically arguing they needed just one more movie lol. It literally wouldn't make that much of a difference.
Half the team has setup
And really the most important three

Ah yes, the "you can only make a teamup movie If you at least do solo movies for half of the total team members" rule

It's Superman, what did you expect?

Cavill is a dork but that somehow makes him more endearing as Superman.
What's his GAF account?

You would think it would be easier to wear a fake mustache for Mission Impossible and clean that up instead of the other way around.

Mission Impossible 6 director said,
I imagine Cavill is doing crazy stunt work on the movie where, be it underwater or strapped to a plane, the fake moustache wouldn't stay on.

The director doesn't want that.
What an awkward situation lol.

There is more attention on his mustache than there was ever of Man of Steel 2.
Despite the fact that I really want superman to be more cheery and light hearted, I absolutely love this scene. It shows superman helping people after the Senate hearing, but you can tell that he's furstrated that beyond getting people out of the building their isn't much he can do.

There is more attention to his facial hair now than during Gillette's Man of Steel "HOW DOES SUPERMAN SHAVE?" ad campaign. Maybe this is just a crazy smart viral marketing ploy to bring this back.
It's not connected in any way. Just a fun little side universe thing.
