It's a shame WB's hampering their directors' creative visions. They should look at what Fox did with Mangold and Feige's doing with Gunn and Waititi and let them go crazy. 🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝

You don't want Snyder to go crazy. Trust me.

If GOTG2 is Gunn without Feige breathing down his neck, maybe Feige should rethink that relationship for 3... Likewise, Ayer needs somebody telling him "no" when he's sketching Selina with a purrfect tattoo on her torso.
Now, Taika, Coogler, and Reeves are directors you let work unobstructed.
MacLaren on WW was an interesting choice if only to see her first big feature film after her great TV work. It's a shame she hasn't signed onto another movie project.

That was before I had a radioactive accident which left me bald but with super powers,

At this point I'd rather have that than neutered Snyder.
Her hair doesn't match.
See what i told you about her hair? the Snyder WW hair is really bland while the Jenkins one is closer to the comics.
MaCLaren wanted a 'sweeping action epic' and WB wanted something more character driven. I side with WB on this. Leave the epics for the sequels.

On the sequel, Jenkins talked about ideas for a Wonder Woman 2 and how it'd be Diana in America. But depending how WW ends and her role in BvS, it's a question of what time period we're talking. Likely it'll be modern day.
In some respects they're backed into a corner by having the movie in flashbacks. It'd be neat for WW1 to be WW1, and WW2 to be WW2 with the Justice Society as supporting characters. Or Wonder Woman set around the 60s/70s.

Gunn made a better sequel to one of the best CBMs. He can do whatever he wants for Vol. 3. 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚
Ayer made a movie that made millions worldwide without China and will spawn a sequel and a spinoff. WB needs to let him do his magic. 🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝
Snyder kickstarted a cinematic universe that made $2.2B and won an Academy Award in its first three movies. He has more than earned it. 🌝🌝🌝🌝🌝

So...Wonder Woman a lock for wardrobe and set design Oscar next year, right?
Deserves it.
Best picture too.

A showed one of my students the latest WW commercial. She was super excited, but worried her mom wouldn't take her cause it's PG-13 (elementary kid).
Which, kudos to mom. But also, being part of those kids who regularly had R rated movies like Robocop marketed to us, I had to chuckle a little at this 4th grader potentially not being able to see Wonder Woman..

Sometimes I wonder if there's a market for a PG superhero movie. In a sense, you get that with animated movies. But nowadays action blockbusters tend to be PG-13 by default. I remember when Revenge of the Sith getting PG-13 was notable.

You know I'm right.
Big Hero 6 was PG and made $650m worldwide. Disney was like "nah fam, I'm good. make it a TV series."
How much did Lego Batman do? I thought that one was pretty good.
I feel some characters like Shazam would benefit from being more family friendly. The movies would just need to be better than the "decent but forgettable" Big Hero 6.

Shazam being PG would be cool, but I can't imagine the Black Adam movie will be.
Also, Josh Gad posted a picture of Penguin and Twitter "detectives" found connections to Johns, Berg, and Ayer. It's probably--hopefully--nothing.

Ayer can piss off if he gives us Gad as penguin. He's already done enough damage to Gothams rogues

Agreed. Still don't understand why he was given so much influence over the Joker. The Joker should have been Wilkerson, Snyder, and the rest of the brain trust at that point.
I have no intent of appearing in any DC movies, contrary to the rumors

Speaking of him, Wilkinson should liberally borrow from his Tron Legacy designs for Flash's proper suit.
This, but red instead of black and keeping the JL helmet.

Because it was his movie, and the Joker was in his movie.

Sorry, but the design of the Joker is above David Ayer IMO, especially for a cinematic universe.

Interesting if they'd go with a younger Penguin. Would mean you could probably expect Catwoman and Ivy to be younger too compared to Bruce. Whichever Bat villains aren't planned for Batman solos might just be cast with Nightwing, Batgirl, and the Sirens in mind.

Ivy, sure. Idk about Catwoman though. Having her be significantly younger than Bruce would be... odd.

I'm not talking about the design tbh. I think Ayer butchered their characterizations. I would have been fine with that Joker if he had any good scenes. Not to mention the rest of the dork squad, these are some of Gotham's most terrifying villains? lol.
now they're letting him shit on Catwoman, Ivy and Penguin too

I bet you wouldn't run up to any of them!
And he's technically not doing the characterizations of GCS
The Strike they fixed for now?
Oh shit, I read on 4chan it was still ongoing
Good to hear it isn't
Can't wait for this
Watched Furious 7 a few weeks ago and it's still the best super hero team movie

I think an older boss Selina while Holly is a younger Catwoman could work.

I would rather they make her the older, wily veteran of the group with tons of history with Batman. That history is important if she's going to appear in the solos. I just get the feeling they're going straight girl power on this one with the two of them being around Harley's age.
