  1. Saw it this weekend with the fam. Fun movie. Definitely not what I expected. The ZSJL joke came out of the blue and caught me off guard. My biggest take from the movie was just how much both the theater and the surrounding restaurants were packed. Felt really good.
  2. Thankfully, this was debunked by Gunn this morning. This was definitely one of the most bizarre rumors regarding the DCU.
  3. Ok. This is bonkers. Even if Gal misspoke by calling the project "WW3".
  4. They reopened in Industry City in Brooklyn.
  5. At least time will tell. One thing is for certain. The Snyderverse will NOT return no matter how much you repeat it.
  6. Have you been around for the last decade? DC is already hurt. Based on the enthusiasm of most (..ahem…..) DC fans, I would say Gunn is going to heal DC.
  7. I believe the GL Fillion will be portraying is Alan Scott (JSA) and not Guy Gardner.
  8. Alexander Skarsgard is a great actor. He plays a really good sociopath. Would love to see him as Lex Luthor.
  9. I agree. Cringeworthy performance. Almost as bad as Jared Leto’s Joker.
  10. That would be amazing. Serious actors and an amazing writer and director. Looking good. Looking good.
  11. I think instead of speculating we should look at how well it worked for Black Adam. Spoiler alert: It didn't work. If it had, Cavill would still be our Superman.
  12. Which is precisely what Gunn said when he took over. He even joked that he was allowed to enter Bat-Mite into the cannon.
  13. Do you really think if those scenes weren't cut, the box office outcome would have changed much?
  14. its Superman. One of the most recognizable IP’s in the world. Couple that with the fact that it’s the first movie in a Universe reboot. Regardless of budget, if SL brings in a total of 500 million worldwide then I would be surprised to see WB pouring any more serious money into non Batman movies.
  15. https://ew.com/movies/james-gunn-says-too-many-superhero-movies-have-gotten-really-lazy/ “his note about sequels that fail to focus on "what makes this story stand apart from other stories" feels relevant to Shazam! Fury of the Gods, which mostly eschewed the superheroes-meet-Big energy of the first Shazam! film in favor of over-the-top violence and fantasy characters that had little connection to the character's comic-book source material. Third acts with no rhyme or reason? That could certainly apply to The Flash.” Gunn has some ideas about how to refresh the genre. One is to make fewer superhero movies and not "overextend" — although the new DC regime has already announced several projects, including Gunn's Superman: Legacy film. Another is to vary up the subgenres. "I like very serious superhero movies, and I like very comedic superhero movies," Gunn said. "I like ones that are a murder mystery but it's with superheroes. I like to see these different types of stories, as opposed to seeing the same story told over and over again."
  16. Thats a shame. Hopefully, they will send Blue Beetle and Aquaman 2 straight to MAX. I don't buy it for a second that Blue Beetle is the first DCU character. Thats just more hype. As a DC fan, I am putting all my eggs in the Gunn basket. I truly believe he will do these characters justice.
  17. I disagree. I believe If Superman Legacy makes 400 million on ANY budget, it’s safe to say DC movies are done. It will just become the Batverse.
  18. Because everything depends on Superman Legacy being a mega hit at the box office. If it isn't, I can't see much more $ being pumped into the Universe.
  19. 75? That's all you think Superman deserves?
  20. My entered into the CGC system on 5/2 FAST TRACK Economy Submission of 8 books remains in GEI purgatory. Would it be that much a hassle for someone at Encapsulation to put it to the top of the pile (along with other customer's FT books)? Such a blatant #$%* off to your customers CGC.
