  1. And of course, he clarifies once again why either studio had to change out the release date.

     

    ---------------------

    I’ve previously written at length to explain why either Marvel or Warner would make a choice to move their films to a different date on the calendar, and why it’s not a case of fear or any other such nonsense fans fixate on. This is about business, and in business if your planned roll-out for a new product puts you in competition for attention and consumer dollars with a strong rival, you make the smart decision to release on a better date, and don’t let ego or petty fan rivalries cause you to make bad business decisions. Anyone who thinks Warner is fearful or uncertain about their Batman-Superman-Wonder Woman team-up film isn’t being realistic.

    ---------------------

     

     

    Didn't Marvel move Cap 3 directly on the same date as Superman vs Batman in the first place?? So that was a strong play by Marvel, and it worked in Warner backing down. I expect Marvel to the same thing on any of these new dates that Warner just announced. If Marvel wants the date ...you better move it.

     

    It's funny to see Marvel and DC continue their rivalry, yet now cinematically.

     

    how is trying to make as much money as possible backing down?

     

    Cap 3 would have also made less money aswell, this is just the smart business move

  2. DC announcing 9 dates and moving BvS Dawn of Justice is a direct result of GOTG movie. WB should have announced this at San Diego Comic Con 2 weeks ago. Clearly WB was waiting for the results and fan reaction to the GOTG movie as it is the biggest gamble any studio has taken with relatively unknown characters.

     

    IMO, its sad to see that WB had little faith in their DC properties and it took a talking raccoon and tree for WB to take a leap of faith.

     

    How is Guardians's results what made DC/Warner move its date? This date change had to be done by either company, which a few detailed analysts clearly called out as the right move for both studios to benefit.

     

    Take the Marvel blinders off, and see reality.

     

     

    Plain and simple. WB got scared. Fearful that it would lose money competing with Captain America 3. There is no way that this announcement today is a coincidence and not a direct correlation with the success of the GOTG movie.

     

    Ask yourself this. Why didn't WB announce this a SDCC when it had the attention of the international media.

     

    :facepalm:

     

    you are deluded

     

    IF they were worried about being outgrossed (which likely wont happen) then the success of CA:TWS would surely be enough to convince them that a date change is necessary

     

    this is a film that is already a fair way into production, they could be way ahead of schedule

  3. Wonder Woman

    There is so much wrong with this I don't even know where to begin.

     

    1. Knee high metal plates to cover her skinny legs.

    2. High heels to make her look taller

    3. Not even a hint of red, white or blue. If I was American I would be insulted.

    4. Upside down tiara or head band

    5. Her top made to look she has a bigger breast size.

    etc......

     

    Xena the Warrior Princess had a better outfit.

     

    these seem to be observations more than faults in the costume

     

    it's pretty clear by now that they were never going to go bright and colourful

     

    i have zero problems with the costume, you can tell who it is so it has fulfilled it's purpose

  4. Kord Industries made a cameo before. It was on the side of a shipping crate or something.
    really

     

    Yeah. I remember getting excited and explaining why to my wife.

    Kord has definitely been mentioned / shown on Arrow at some point.

     

    it was a fundraiser or something that Moira went to wasn't it?

     

    also Bludhaven was mentioned (Deadshot lived there) so Nightwing is possible

  5. Latino-Review said that JL release date is May 5th, 2017.

     

    here is the original source from the last post. WB/DC movie plans

     

     

    Im catching up after a few days and I'm a bit confused. The article says the release date for BvS: DOJ is scheduled for May 2016 release with Shazam set for a July 2016 release, is that correct? Isn't that cutting it a a little too close to one another? Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of not having to wait a whole year for a DC installment but I figured it would be better to space them out more. But if DOJ is rescheduled to 2017 (bummer) I wouldn't mind Shazam filing in but boy is that movie going to be difficult to pull-off. Also, this Flash/Green Lantern movie is personally my favorite one of the bunch because I absolutely love those Silver Age funny books. I can't wait to see the castings for those two roles, that's assuming Grant Gustin isn't their decision for the cinematic version.

    Speaking of Green Lantern. I wonder who or what version of Green Lantern will in the movie? hm

     

    Hal is easily explained moreso than Guy/John/Kyle, the rest kind of need Hal to have been GL already and i'm thinking they're not counting the last movie (shhh) (it wasn't that bad)

  6. Well, now we know what the Superman statue was for.

     

    Superman Statue Being Erected On BATMAN v SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE Set

     

    Next to the LexCorp (old GM building) set of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice there is a 15 foot Superman statue is being erected.

     

    Earlier today, Bananadoc (via Batman-News.com) went to Pontiac, Michigan to check out the construction of sets for Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. There, he found a large statue of Superman being put together, with a large green screen behind it. It is located across the street from the Michigan Motion Picture Studios next to the old GM building which is being converted into LexCorp. Bananadoc also snapped a shot of the LexCorp building (click here), but a blue tarp covered all the signage. Scenes are expected to be filmed there in three days.

    thats a pretty big

  7. Still too scrawny. I dont think she has the frame to bulk up much more

     

    She definitely wasn't top on my list to play Wonder Woman. But I am trying to think positive, and hope this turns out well.

     

    :)

     

    I agree with you, we should try to look at the positives. Someone is spending a ton of money and going to bust their :censored: to make a movie we'd all (well, a lot of us anyway) would like to be made. Still the casting choices confound me . . .

     

    it's rare i think about casting choices when the movies come out
