Did Ezra Miller really not get dropped from it after choke slamming some girl backstage at a concert? Meh, to me that just looked like two drunk idiots messing around. They were both clearly laughing/smiling and he didn't really "throw her to the ground", as many people reported it, so much as he grabbed her and they both drunkenly stumbled over. I imagine WB investigated it all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 It was my understanding when I heard about it that it basically the tip of the iceberg for Ezra, I was surprised they didn't just dump him and get someone new in. Then again, as I said in an earlier post, Amber Heard seems to be doing fine for Aquaman 2 after the sh*t she's pulled lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Batfleck is returning in the Flash movie https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2020/08/ben-affleck-returns-batman-the-flash-multiverse-keaton This has been the "I'm playing him, oh wait I'm not playing him, haha just kidding I am playing him." cinematic universe. Since The Flash movie is doing a version of Flashpoint my guess is that DC is going to reset everything. Seeing Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck is going to be awesome but I want them to go all out and get Kevin Conroy and maybe even Christian Bale lol.

Is this The Guy? Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I haven’t been keeping tabs on this new Batman movie at all but it looks, well, interesting at least. I did however just google the cast and bravo @ casting Paul Dano as the Riddler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zello Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I don't like how he looks at the end with the black stuff on his face makes him look like an emo batman. Not a fan of the suit either other than that I'm liking this. Robert Pattinson is the perfect casting for Batman imo. Lonely-Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Don't like the suit yet but I liked everything else, I particularly like that he's working directly with cops and is standing among them unlike Nolan Batman and BvS/JL Batman too. Looks good overall and that trailer is composed of footage from an still very much unfinished shoot too. 9 hours ago, Zello said: I don't like how he looks at the end with the black stuff on his face makes him look like an emo batman. I liked that touch tbh, otherwise you get scenes where he clearly has the makeup on to blend in with the cowl in one second and then it's vanished the moment he takes the cowl off. It's not much, but it's a nice little detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely-Martin Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 My daughter watched that teaser with me and she was cooing over Pattinson's look, lol. It looks ok, seemed dark for sure and I'll definitely take a look once it's out of course. Just worried it'll be too Twilighty given he looks like a mopy teenage idol, lol. We'll see.

Badman_ Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Will the Syndercut finish the Snyder vision of the DCEU or is it going to be the 1st part of 2 part movie? Is the 2nd part ever going to be released? Honestly, I'm not that much of big fan of his work. Man of Steel was barely decent and BvS was quite a mess. But his ideas about the universe are very exciting and I'd like to see the completion of it. He once mentioned a 5 movie saga, with Justice League being a 2 part movie. basedhrg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthYENIK Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 First off, why 4:3? Secondly, I liked the theatrical release. That said, this movie definitely should have been the one we saw in theaters, maybe if it could be cut down to 2.5 to 3 hours. It is definitely swinging for the fences to try to get that late inning game tying grand slam to save the DCEU, and it honestly does that. But only if you can survive the first two hours or so. It’s like everything is in slow motion for that first act that feels like it takes up half the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely-Martin Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Yeah, the 4:3 was a bit of a weird one. Plus on Sky this morning it initially recorded some sappy romcom instead so had to download it as I wasn't waiting for the 8pm showing. Got worried for a moment there that they really screwed up, lol. Was very surprised Sky didn't put it on box office and squeeze us for a few extra quid though. Fair play Sky Movies! And like @darthYENIK above, I did enjoy the theatrical release a few years back too, it wasn't an epic, but entertaining fun no less. This version had a real epic feel to it I felt and after the Batman v Superman extended, that was what I had expected before, but we finally got that here. This version was much better for me though. Enjoyed how Cyborg's story had more depth, and the baddies too of course. The epilogue was great fun, I hope this goes somewhere more in future and Zack Snyder can do more as I've enjoyed these from Man of Steel onwards. The length wasn't really an issue for me to be fair, quite enjoyed the slow build and feel the movie delivered as it went along and had a big ending it promised, plus I'm a sucker for the romance in the Lois and Clark aspects so I was fine when it slowed down a bit for that. Spoiler She's gotta be pregnant though, no? We saw the pregnancy test in the draw and when Bruce said 'Oh by the way, congratulations' after meeting Clark when he bought the bank to get Martha's house back too. Pretty sure that wasn't referenced in the theatrical release, but been a while so may have forgotten. My main criticism of it is just how much I do dislike The Flash/Barry Allen in this and the earlier release TBH - Though that earlier version was going for more humour compared to this version so easier to look past. For such a movie that's going for what feels a more mature approach in this newer version, he just came across as some hyperactive kid and very out of place. Makes Tom Holland's Spider-Man look grown up, you know? Maybe it's just me If we do get a Flash film with the same actor and mannerisms, I'll pass on that one. Much prefer the dude from the TV show. Anyway, minor complaint overall really. Luckily there was much more to this that one bad character did no big harm. But yeah, that epilogue has me wanting more from this story. I mean... Spoiler Bad guy Superman, yes please. Plus Joker and Batman working together with all that hostility, come on. They're royally teasing us now! Great movie though. Really does leave me wanting more, though it's also a good way to wrap things up too. After all, always leave them wanting more, hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 It's no worse but it's no better than the theatrical/Whedon's cut - not that this is Snyder's v1 either, this is very obviously his v2 that's been spruced up to please the fans who demanded the Snyder cut into existence. Plot wise it's an even bigger mess on the whole New Gods part of things, forgetting the location of Earth for ??? years, Steppenwolf's messy origin that's never explained at all, the flashback scene where the big lad gets absolutely steamrolled making you wonder why he's a big deal at all, etc. Nothing is explained well, or explained at all, it all feels like it's thrown in to give us some New Gods stuff cause we're never getting the sequels. Character wise it's better purely cause they had more time to flesh them out (3 and a half hours, f*ck me sideways). There's some good character moments but nothing extraordinary by any means, more Alfred was the main win really. Action wise though, it's miles better, the action sequences actually play out properly this time around, the final big battle is way better put together than the theatrical version. Then we have some cheap cameos that'll never play out thrown in along with a whole load of filler shots that serve literally no purpose and finally some brooding music video style sequences to really pad out that 3 and a half hours and yea, it's no better in the end. At the end of the day, if you polish a turd and all that. Decent fun if you can sit through it in it's entirety but if this was the original version (and it wouldn't have been), it'd have done no better. darthYENIK and basedhrg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snyder Cut left so many questions in my mind that I'd have loved to see some answers too but oh well On the plus side, he did share what his plans were for an hypothetical Zack Snyder's Justice League 2/3.

Jason Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Regarding the JL2/3 plot: Spoiler I absolutely despise the "Bruce and Lois hooked up" plot. It's so, so f*cking cheap and it's one of many reasons why Snyder's DC universe stumbled, he just didn't quite get it. He got the DC heroes basically being gods part, but the actual character moments? No, not even close for the most part.

Zello Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 So now WB wants a Black superman. This is so stupid. DC has a huge library of African American characters that they can use who have interesting stories. They have Icon who is literally just like Superman but Black. There's Static, John Stewart, Black Lightning... instead they've decided to take Superman and make him black. I know that there's a Earth-2 Superman in the comics that's black but he's not that well known. WB and DC really do a bad job at promoting their B-list characters.

I know that there's a Earth-2 Superman in the comics that's black but he's not that well known. WB and DC really do a bad job at promoting their B-list characters. This is stupid, alright. It's just corporate wokism - suits pretending to care about race to cash in on remaking another Superhero except with a black person. Like you said, if they have some great black heros all ready, why not use them? I'd probably be offended if I was a black man they just wanted to arbitrarily change the appearance of pre-existing characters probably to appeal to my race. If anything just promote more black superheros. Why go changing existing ones and causing controversy (I know, controversy sells). They know this is a controversial move. Wokist publications and virtue signallers will praise it, others will be "outraged" and those outraged will be deemed racist, and those conversations online will be all heated and this will sell the movie. It's so cynical. And to to think that those executives care about anything other than $$$$ is preposterous. I don't actually mind Superman being black at all, it's just the cringy nature of those corporate nutstains thinking their being so great and woke but we know it's about the Benjamins and nothing more. I would love a satire on the new black Super Man with Batman except it's called Blackman and it's a rip of Batman done in a 1970's blaxploitation style film starring Dave Chapelle as Blackman. Nah nah nah nah nah BLACKMAN! Ridding the streets of bad crack cocaine and helping those that legitimately serve the community with quality crack. The film will feature deep racial generalizations such a Robin being unable to be agile and fly because he has a fried chicken addiction and a massive gut. Blackman gets him on a diet of crack to lose weight to fight the evil Woker, who is a just a normal looking vanilla white guy from the suburbs who acts woke and for social justice and minorities but his obsession with wearing Nike runners and t-shirts proclaiming "I'm a feminist" ensures that he's definitely paying money into the pockets of those that exploit women and children in sweatshops in Asia and Africa. This guy is woke as f*ck on his iPhone - signalling his virtue as he drives his gas guzzling SUV and using products made by slave-labour sweatshop workers in China.

Lonely-Martin Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Recasting Superman as a black guy? Oh dear! I'm the most accepting person I can be, not a prejudice bone in my body, but no thanks! If I get called in accepting for it, so be it, lol. I like Henry Cahill, thought he was a great number 2 to the legend that is Christopher Reeve. It would feel so unnatural to have anyone other, let alone drastic changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
