Justice League Movie (Nov 17th, 2017)

[GeneralZodLives]

It might not be their intention, but as a fanboy I'm glad they're going for the deeper approach.

This argument about the "most popular superheroes ever" doesn't cut it. Did you see the box office for BB and SR?

A deeper approach is fine as long as they don't lose what makes those characters in the first place--and I think they're failing pretty hard at that, especially with respect to Superman.

"Most popular superheroes" refers to Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. Marvel is making a ****load of money without heroes at that level so DC sure as hell should be able to with the Trinity. The fact that they're not shows how much they are missing the mark with the characters and story line.

 

[EVILFACE]

It's not hitting the mark with the characters that is making money, it's making movies that are appealing to consumers. Joe Blow never read a comic but remembers seeing superman cereal as a kid and went to see BvS but has no clue why Superman is punching Batman through a building.

It's all about making a good movie. Example: The Dark Knight

Exactly! Just tell good stories those are the ones fans remember and cherish. The 78 Superman was campy and corny but the story was simple and fun. What Superman should be.

Danny Elfman is composing the score for this.

Maybe now Batman's theme won't be as forgettable.

 

[RIDDICK]

Mmm... Elfman's cool but he's not a good fit for Snyderverse.
So just another addition to this huge mess... or major change in DCCU direction is very real?
Either way I don't like the sound of it.

 

[Captain Clown]

Yeah, it's weird how we're just now learning about this, when the movie is fairly close to hitting theaters. Maybe Joss kicked Junkie XL off this and replaced him with Elfman, since they worked together on Age of Ultron?

Still, the news sounds kinda cool. They'll probably be using the established "themes" for the characters, like how they played Wonder Woman's theme in her solo movie constantly.

I don't think "worked together" is apropriate.
Elfman composed several tracks usin' Silvestri's main theme, late into postro.
He's only credited for 10 out of 28 tracks, most of them are just variations of the theme.
Brian Tyler's the AoU composer.

These films are so deep they're unfathomable.

What theme?

 

[RIDDICK]

Just tell good stories those are the ones fans remember and cherish.

Not true. Fans remember shlock films with shlock stories better.

What theme?

The awesome one.

 

[chewblacca]

Shook stories are usually wild or crazy and those parts we remember. Like Kevin Bacon getting killed in Friday the 13th. Good stories stay with us like inception.

 

[RIDDICK]

Good stories stay with us like inception.

I don't remember the story of "INCEPTION"...

 

[Captain Clown]

I remember "TEH TRAINN..." and absolutely nothing else.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I don't remember a thing

 

[chewblacca]

Ok, better story, Raiders of the Lost Ark

 

[GasparZizou]

I don't remember the story of "INCEPTION"...

It was: It was only a dream(?): The movie.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

Ok, better story, Raiders of the Lost Ark

That, I remember

The only two "INCEPTION" related things I remember:

WTF they're removing JXL

This could completely kill the iconic sound of Zimmer/JXL in favor of the forgettable Avengers sound.

I really hope Elfman gets inspired, they should've rebooted if they wanted to do this.
