Somehow doesn't look as bad as the action sequences in Batman v Superman

realllly curious how this has been budgeted - and projected to be rated
― da croupier, Monday, 13 July 2015 21:17 (nine years ago) link
cuz if it's rated R and north of 100m it has to do as well as Mad Max Fury Road to be any kind of hit
i'll see it, but i also saw jonah hex

DC is in serious self clowning mode (pun intended)

still amazed how much they've banked on Batman v Supes being adored. They're going to from making a DC supermovie a year - only the batmans connected, because only the batmans were big, to a series of super-connected films once every six months or so.

holy shit that looks great doesn't it?? i wish it was like.. X rated.

Task Force X-Rated, mor lik
Still, am far, FAR more interested in this than any BvS/JLA flick, due to the Ostrander/Yale years making the comic one of the most compelling/progressive titles on the Big Two's rosters during the Bronze/Chromium Age
If they can get the Waller/Deadshot/Boomerang interchange working, then I'm happy. If they can get a proper Waller/Batman interaction working, I'll be ecstatic.
― Purves Grundy (kingfish), Tuesday, 14 July 2015 07:09 (nine years ago) link
yeah, the ostrander/yale years are some of my favourite superhero comics ever, but i dunno if the snyderverse is really built to support the delicate moral shading that made those books so great. i'd love to be proved wrong tho!

Meh... only thing that trailer made me do is wonder if I should play the latest Batman videogame Arkham City was dope.

"There was definitely a period of...detachment," Leto explains. "I took a pretty deep dive. But this was a unique opportunity and I couldn't imagine doing it another way. It was fun, playing those psychological games. But at the same time it was very painful, like giving birth out of my prick hole."

Current comic Harley Quinn is awful (look, boobs!) but since she's the only DC character aside from Batman that sells they're giving her two more series.

just looking at the still i'm picturing a Galaxy Quest type scenario featuring a bunch of cosplayers abducted from San Diego Comic-Con. does the trailer support that?

having watched the trailer, this looks like so much garbage with so many name actors

This didn't come out like 5 months ago? I figured it would be on DVD by now.

Cringed at Queen. But. It looks different from Marvel movies so it automatically feels fresh in the superhero world. Even if it's bad, it's doing something.

This is the old DC film I'm interested in, mainly due to the comics. I'm curious how you take a framework set up by Ostrander et al, shit thru the Nu52 years, and then make a Snyder-era movie from it.
― Professor Goodfeels (kingfish), Wednesday, 20 January 2016 19:04 (eight years ago) link
the trailer provides plenty of suggestion and "shit thru the Nu52 years" looks right on. hard to believe millar isn't involved somehow.

There was some DC special that I didn't watch after Flash last night where I guess they debuted this trailer. Which I'm sure made synergistic sense to some DC exec but to many fans of the WB shows, it was probably more like "Hey, remember some of these characters from the shows you enjoy? Well, here they are again except they're not actually the same characters as the ones on TV and they're being played by different people! Isn't that fun?"

Funny that a modern, knockoff version of this has already been running for three years now, to universal critical acclaim and sales of literally hundreds of copies an issue. Imagine Warners just hiring Fiffe.

The good thing this movie has caused is that DC is finally (after a failed attempt a few years ago) collecting the original 80s/90s Ostrander run, which is one of the best superhero comics of its era.
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 20 January 2016 23:19 (eight years ago) link
