Hot Toys 1:6 Justice League Figure Speculation

[imaI2EAPEi2]

The movie was awesome! 8/10 for me. A lot of nods to comic book fans.

I'll be seeing the film this weekend, can't wait to do so. I have no doubts that I'll enjoy it, but I have a feeling that it's not going to beat BvS (UE) for me.

Originally, I was like...I think I'm ok with just having the trinity.

I really hope I still feel the same after the film ends.

I'm going to try really hard to not get swept up in the hype of just having seen the film and just stick with the BvS Trinity as my main DCEU display. I already PO'd JL WW, but the intent with that is to have her serve as my version of WW from the solo film alongside the TA WW. I may pick up just the JL Superman body if the suit is an upgrade (namely the outlining on the S glyph not being as prominent) over the BvS figure's suit, while still being accurate to the BvS in color and design.

Well I liked it and once again am at a lot to explain the critical hate for this movie. I love the characters so I can enjoy it in spite of some obvious flaws. I don't expect it to get a great score but 60% lower than Thor? Wow. Both should be some where in the 60-70% region I feel.

The Flash and Superman were the highlights for me. I liked all the characters though and hopefully Cyborg gets more love now.

I can forgive the poor villain and sometimes weak CGI because the character interactions are so pleasing but yet again, like BvS, the thing that hurts the movie most is the nonsensical decision to not release the full movie. At least 30 minutes too short and if about 20% of this is Whedon that means a lot of Zack's stuff has been left on the cutting room floor.

I want to see his original 2 hour 40 cut on the blu-ray.

If Whedon directs Batgirl I'm not sure I have any interest if he treats her like Black Widow and Dianna. A good movie that could have been so much more without studio interference.

Totally agree. Tough to do as many introductions and characters that the movie has, but I feel like Whedon ruined what Snyder had planned. Steppenwolf was essentially non-existent.

Would be awesome if we get that figure from the after credits scene.

Can someone who's seen it attest that all these scenes have *really* been cut, or is the guy just making it up? Because if it's true, that's *so much* of the trailer material and really means it's been butchered beyond belief. I was really looking forward to some of those scenes, especially Clark in the field. And Alfred greeting whoever had arrived at the end of that trailer. I can't believe the flash fight and WW's hero landing were cut worthy apparently too. No spoilers, all trailer material only.

Since Snyder stepped out I'm not so sure, but I really hope we get a cut that's 40min+ longer.


All the comments are to the tune of ***** you WB / Whedon

Edit: a cut that's 40min+ with whedons stuff cut out lol

Only scene I remember seeing from that compilation is the scene where they focus on the inside of Bruce's car for some blatant product placement. I'm just realizing now that I never noticed Cyborg covering his entire face with metal, and Mattel even made an action figure of that look!

I can confirm that...
All the scenes here are cut or cut shorter.
And there are more from trailers that was never in there...

Spoiler

"No kryptonian, no lanterns" cut.
Whole cyborg origin cut.
He said you'd come. Cut. Supes automatically knows where they are fighting steppenwolf..

Really looking forward to seeing this, this weekend. Even if it's not perfect, it looks likes a fun time. I would almost bet anything that with the Rotten Tomato score what it is though that WB will release another extended cut on DVD and Blu Ray, if for no other reason than damage control. They'll offer up an extended version to try to entice people who are on the fence about purchasing to go ahead and buy it. It's just frustrating that it wasn't released uncut to begin with. Even though I don't think it completely fixed everything, I really feel like if the Ultimate Cut of Batman v Superman had been released in the theater, it would have gotten a considerably more favorable critical reception.

I want a 3.5 hour Director's Edition. With polished CGI and flow originally intended by Zack...
I hope he has the will and time to do this.

Honestly I think BvS would have still met the reception it did. It seemed like people were ready to hate it well before it came out due to it's overly grim aesthetics alone. And people were saying they spoiled the whole movie in the trailer with the doomsday reveal, while giving civil war a free pass for spoiling how it plays out in trailers as well. As for the critics, all the reviews were comparing to marvel and a 'lack of fun' which had become mandatory at some point. It's too bad though. Perhaps in time it will be looked upon with a more favorable gaze.

I kind of doubt we will get improved CGI on whatever extended cut they might release, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 3 hours plus cut out there, just based on how things went with Batman v Superman, but of course it's all speculation at this point. I haven't seen the movie yet, to know if I'm going to like whatever Whedon brought to the movie, or if I'll even be able to pick those parts out. I'm usually not as critical of Whedon's writing/direction as some, but I can understand the frustration if when watching the movie it feels very different in tone to MOS or Batman V Superman, or if the tone of the movie seems all over the place within Justice League.

Yea. Just a "hope"....

There's no explanation needed. There's always been a subtle JL charm to Cavill's Superman which is sprinkled
much more throughout Mos. It may be more noticeable now that he's finally at peace with his place in the
world (something he embraced at the conclusion of bvs, when he decided to lay down his life for his adopted planet)
and that he has allies/friends like himself. Add to the fact that a rebirth after his brush with death and reuniting with
the woman he wanted to marry would likely make him a more hopeful optimistic that appreciates life.

As I wrote from my first comment, this is the superman that I hope we saw after MoS
but on bvs, he was so brooding and sad, even the filmmaker think that they needed to add a new scene that shown his optimistic side before his death

 

[Hoody999]

I'd love an extended version. It made me buy the BvS version. And made me like it so much more. So if a poor rotten tomatoes score pushes them to release an extended version JL then no problem here.

 

[spindrift]

Saw the movie...


I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only thing bad about the movie...

is its gonna make my wallet cry cause I'm gonna want the rest of the team now!

Good for you- despite the wallet's woes!

 

[snakeeyes171]

I watched it last night, don't understand the hate, I loved it too, 9/10 for me. Want the whole league now, plus the two in the post credits scene. Hell yeah!!!!!!

It's bizarre seeing the disparity between the critics and audience score here....even more extreme than other DCEU movies. Audiences seem to be enjoying it for the most part but that critic score will keep some away sadly and pull the box office numbers down.

 

[batmanfan23]

There's a disparity because the majority of people who have seen it thus far are hardcore DC fans who are also passionately going out of their way to praise it to offset the critic response.

yeah!!!we need no critics , they critize everything !!!! hope this don't effect the dceu ..there is a future coming and its just getting started. I think they need to stick to solo movies

 

[davejames]

I might be proven wrong, but I just have a hard time believing this movie is really as clunky and cheap looking and poorly edited as the critics are saying. I know Whedon has had some missteps now and then, but I have a hard time believing he'd let a movie go out in that bad a state.
