After the failure of Wonder Woman, Justice League, and Batfleck Emerges, the only movie to survive the wreckage is...

the Oscar-winning Aqua Man.

Get Vinny on the phone. The movie is back on.

VINNY'S DOING THE MOVIE!

 

[Diprosalic]

Can they complete the Trinity with Wonder Woman?

i currently see nothing that would give me hope in WW.

Poor Jai Courtney.

I wonder if he and Sam Worthington can made a movie together or something.

Shame groot has already been cast. They'd make great wooden characters.

 

[mckmas8808]

The fundamental problem with this universe is that it's extended, because it was never intended to be a shared universe when Man of Steel was in production. Lack of vision is so apparent.

Solid point!

 

[JaggedSac]

All we need is for Rouge one and Doc Strange to suck. Duds for everyone this year

Doc Strange looks good as fuck. First Marvel movie I have an impetus to watch in theaters since Winter Soldier(and I didn't even get around to watching that in the theater, lol).

 

[Sanjuro]

I refuse to believe it's as bad as F4. If I come out liking at least one character it's already better than F4.

Tim Heidecker was great in Fantastic Four.

 

[Pandora012]

So Wonder Woman will save DC, right?

The same person who thought Jessie Eisenberg would be a good Lex Luthor.

Man I hated Lex the moment I saw him. Blegh.

It could be called Default Setting!

Holy sh*t. His laughing face fits into almost any GIFs.

Eh, Wan has way, way more of a track record than Trank. Not saying it will be good, but just because Trank failed doesn't mean a better director can't succeed.

That comment was more towards likely studio interference than it was a shot at Wan. I know he can do horror, but I have a feeling WB will reign him in if he takes it too far like Fox did with Trank. The whole "Cronenberg-style body horror" Fantastic Four aspect interested me way more than the final product ever did.

 

[Papito]

Honestly reviewers seem to rate some marvel films highly even when I feel they are really weak. Like iron man 2 and 3. It could be that super hero films are getting so old now that they either have to be really amazing or its just straight garbage to people.

so basically

it's not dark enough

and the editing is shit

Everything is fine

 

[Garlador]

is this a reference to something?

Fantastic Four cast walked around comic con and nobody noticed.

 

[CrayToes]

DC build up all that hype at SDCC just to shit the bed a month later.

Tampa Bay Times review

Get the fuck out of here shitting on Cesar's Batman

 

[Firemind]

Thought the whole movie takes place at night

it needed an r rating

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

is this a reference to something?

A couple of Fantastic 4 (2015) actors walked around Comic-Con and nobody came up to them at all.

 

[Ithil]

Oh yeah, I totally forgot



Jai Courtney strikes out again.

Water also determined to be wet.

Spoiler

And more charismatic than Jai Courtney.

 

[Spinluck]

worst post in thread?

It's a contender for sure.

 

[jediyoshi]

why do people only focus on rottentomatoes??? that site isn't even that well known

I'm dead and this comment has killed me.

Same thing happened at the box office.

It's possible WB restricts him, but I'm not so convinced they are nearly as bad as Fox from that perspective. Hell, if things continue as they are from a quality-perspective they might just let him do what he wants given his success rate.

 

[Maxim726X]

Tarzan with better a RT score than this?

Whoo boy.

 

[spekkeh]

why do people only focus on rottentomatoes??? that site isn't even that well known, just another way for marvel fans to shit on the next DC movie as usual

it's getting way too blatant, neogaf.. or should i say... marvelgaf?

meanwhile NOBODY is talking about the 9,1 score the movie currently has on imDB... gee i wonder why!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1386697/

but yeah, just go on hating the movie without even having seen it. i'm going to watch it monday with friends and actually enjoy myself. have fun talking about meaningless scores all week gaf!

Haha good one.

Spoiler

This was sarcasm right? Everyone knows IMDb as of late is astroturfed to hell and back by the production companies, right?

Pretty much.

At this point they should think about rebooting 60s Batman.

 

[number11]

The team behind the advertising deserve a bonus. They made me actually believe that this will be good.

This. I legit thought this would be good.

Justice League to be a TV movie confirmed

 

[Kibbles]

Coming from the guy with a joker avatar, yea we'll take it with huge piles of Chris evens gifs and salt.

I saw the movie and formed my opinion before critics unlike a lot of you judging off a fucking RT score so I don't know where you're going with this

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Just make a Lego DC Universe.

 

[Korigama]

Who the hell thought Cara Delevingne would make a good villain? C'mon now.

I had no idea that she was even supposed to be the villain rather than just yet another member of the team, going by how the marketing has been handled up until now. I wouldn't have known who the main antagonist could've been other than Joker.

oh, cool thanks but imma call BS on that.
they would probably recognise an extra from EP7, no way they don't know who Kate Mara is.

 

[Yeezus H. Christ]

he's saying you have a joker avatar, a joker avatar from SS no less, to begin with so objectivity isn't really expected

I might have recognized her. I wouldn't have spoken to her though. Well, maybe to give my condolences.

I know, it was a poor joke

You love the joker period your avatar and your responses prove that. Not saying you can't like it, but the consensus so far is he's not that great in the film because he doesn't impact it in any meaningful way outside of harley's origins.

 

[Strider_Blaze]

I don't get why WB wanted these big group films when they could ride building solo films and slowly do cross overs like Marvel. They might be behind Avengers and what not but so what?

You could have 15 films making bank with different characters and great stories but they decided to blow their load.

WB seems that desperate to already try to catch up to Marvel Studios. Honestly, I too would have waited out doing crossovers. I think WB could have just put more focus on the Wonder Woman film first, before moving on to BvS.

 

[Diprosalic]

that's really baffling yeah.

I had no idea that she was even supposed to be the villain rather than just yet another member of the team, going by how the marketing has been handled up until now. I wouldn't have known who the main antagonist could've been other than Joker.

same, i've been saying for a while now that they did an absolute terrible job of introducing the team or explaining what's even going on.

 

[JustAnotherMike]

The only reason I check out the threads of big releases is for things like this. My goodness this is cracking me up.

Now all they've got is embarrassing wasted potential that ended up as shoehorned email attachments.

Not seeing Harley working her normal job, meet the inmates, slowly fall for Joker which I presume is some shit flashback of wasted potential. Imagine Batman visiting Arkham, dropping off prisoners to Gordon or something and Harley mostly normal going about her business but something is off. There is no decent build up or threads in this cinematic universe.

Exactly. DC are being stupid about this. OH we have to have everything Marvel has now. Well if wanted that you should have started with solo movies, etc almost 10 years ago. Say what you want about Marvel but they introduced you to all the pieces before bringing them together. Each and every one of those movies laid groundwork for the avengers movies. It's paying off now too. Meanwhile DC is trying to unorganically jump right to the shared universe group movies shit and it's failing miserably.

 

[mckmas8808]

Exactly! Ayer talked about having Batman in the movie to show him from the bad guys point of view which instantly made me think of this scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLDlzwHRxRM That "oh shit" moment when he shows up.

That was good. When did this animation movie come out?

 

[Slaythe]

You love the joker period your avatar and your responses prove that. Not saying you can't like it, but the consensus so far is he's not that great in the film because he doesn't impact it in any meaningful way outside of harley's origins.

He's in there 10 fucking minutes.

Most reviews don't call him bad.

It's hard to judge the guy based off 10 minutes.

Especially after all the teasing and marketing about him, it's very underwhelming.

But this has almost nothing to do with Leto's performance.

Dude is fine, remove his tattoo on his face and get him proper teeth and he'll be a slick Joker.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Thank you DC Movies for being the catalyst of incredible Chris Evans gifs.

Joker is literally only in 8-10min of the movie, FFS. This has nothing to do with Joker, in fact he was one of the best parts about the movie and easily is top-tier in on-screen Jokers and leads a very promising future. Make him and Harley the main villians of a movie and have as much screentime as the other Jokers have had and he easily trumps them all imo.

Hoo boy. Top tier if you just include all the Jokers in one tier and Leto features around the bottom. Nicholson, Ledger, Hamill... no where near.

 

[Salsa]

well I expected this

but it still bums me out worse than BvS cause I actually like Ayer as opposed to Hack
