  1. Please post a pic when it arrives. Very curious about the Grease Marker price.
  2. Definitely some confusion given we have only been given tidbits of the full plan. Apparently there is another movie in the early plans that he didn't reveal the title to because it would give too much away (Lobo?). If I had to read between the lines: - I don't think there will be a Peacemaker season 2. The Waller series will take that spot. -If Shazam 2 does well, he stays in the universe. And I will thank the Rock for staying clear of the Shazam Universe. -Flash will serve as a one shot. Will serve to fill the void and explain the changes. -This iteration of Aquaman is done but it isn't being revealed so people still show up to the movie (Momoa comes back as Lobo).
  3. Slow track TAT down to 150 days. Still silly, but improving steadily. Can i get an Amen?
  4. P.S. I am in no way anti-Snyder. The guy is a brilliant director...ZSJL was absolutely brilliant, as was Watchmen, etc. Further, I am not trying to be antagonistic. I just believe Gunn is being blamed unfairly for a decade of dysfunction. Seems Gunn sincerely loves the DC mythology. Lets see how it plays out. I am very hopeful.
  5. Honestly the non-comic audiences are confused enough. I don't even believe Elseworlds would even exist at this point if the Reeves and Joker verse weren't already in motion. For us, its fine. We are used to it from the books, but for the average movie going audience, it makes much more sense to have ONE Batman, ONE Superman, etc.
  6. Fair enough, and yes he has the power now. But now that he has the creative control, why shouldn't he go forth with HIS vision and HIS roadmap for cohesiveness? Just for Cavill? Thats not reasonable. We are all a little upset with how the studio has handled things over the past decade. From your post, even GUNN himself is upset about it. But to scapegoat Gunn for the past is unfair. Just my two cents.
  7. There is no way Gunn knew he would become co-Ceo when filming the JL cameo in Peacemaker. I highly doubt it was Gunn's choice to keep Cavill out of that cameo.
  8. I agree Gunn is right. Cavill was unfairly treated by the FORMER regime, but it is certainly unfair to say Gunn is ALSO a part of "pickling" Cavill around. If an older Superman does not fit into his vision and plan, should he change his entire vision for an actor? I see Gunn's words as a clear extension of an olive branch to the Snyder fandom. This Snyder vs Gunn B S has to be put to rest.
  9. I agree 100%. Shazam 2 does well, he stays. Flops, then bye bye. I think the same could be said for all 4 DC movies slated in 2023. Is Ezra a weirdo? Sure. But if he could bring in a billion at the box office, he will become miraculously rehabilitated and go on a talk show sympathy tour. In the words of Puff Daddy, "Its all about the Benjamins".
  10. Im LOVING these ideas. I love the idea of a hardcore Supergirl. Raised in a dystopia and then comes to earth. What a great juxtaposition to Superman. Two Kryptonians raised completely differently. Swamp Thing as a true horror movie? Pinch me. Lanterns in the vain of True Detective!! GOT=esque Paradise Island? ....and lastly not only am I happy Gunn is writing the Supes flick, I pray he also directs it. I will go back to hiding under my rock now.
  11. Sounds brilliant to me. This is what this Mythology that started it all deserves. I am ALL IN. and sounds like this year's slate will have purpose.. Shazam is sticking around, Blue Beetle will continue, Flash will serve as a transition movie.. Aqua man? Still not sure about that one.
  12. IDK about you guys, but that was pretty exciting to me. Also sounds like this year's slate of movies are part of the continuity. Shazam, Blue Beatle, etc are sticking around. Flash will used as transitional. Those new projects sound GREAT. A Lanterns TV show... with John Stewart. The Paradise Island TV show being Game of Thrones-esque. (I smell NUBIA!!) Also love the idea of DC Elseworlds. Whats not to like!!! (Kindly refrain from turning me into your punching bag)
  13. I’m hopeful. I may be in the minority but I am hopeful nonetheless.
  14. New Magazine machines....... what are the chances these new machines will be able to encapsulate Treasury editions? Wishful thinking? Pipe dream?
  15. Drats. I was hoodwinked by the internet again. Ill never learn.
  16. Just read that the press are now gathering at WBStudios for a press conference..... Was hoping @Bosco685 would have posted something about this. Hope its true.
  17. This. It comes down to good storytelling. i dont want to derail the topic here, but storytelling is exactly why I am bullish on Gunn and DC right now. The man is a great storyteller. I hope he does well, for many reasons including the sake of the superhero genre on a whole, which trickles down to our hobby. We need a little disruption right now.
  18. I sure hope we aren't waiting until May 17th for any substantial news. Just a few more days in January and I seriously hope we get the goods from Gunn.
  19. Man, I hope Gunn includes the Shazam Universe in his plans.
  20. I was hoping we would have heard something about the plans for the first few years by now.
  21. My first computer. I loved that thing... Archon, Archon II Adept, Strip Poker, etc. etc.
  22. I hate this. To grade this cheapens the hobby. These aren't holy relics. Neat to own, sure. Grading trash? Shark Jumping.
