Justice League Movie (Nov 17th, 2017)

Smart move adding Captain America to the team.

It's a fan made poster from Snyder, it took him 4 minutes to make. Relax, guys!

Be nice if Snyder were a mere fan of movies

Is the arch-villain an evil welder?

Zack probably had to threaten a lawsuit for it to say "From Zack Snyder".

The lawsuit was because it was originally followed by ", sorry."

All I want from this movie is one scene, where they decide on the name of the "Justice League." Because there's no way that isn't hilarious.

WW will probably come up with it online while the other heroes battle Darkseid.

"World Crushers is already taken. Would you like World Crushers247?"

"Dark Warriors is already taken. Would you like Dark Warriors892?"

"Justice League has been saved. A confirmation email has just been forwarded to you. When you respond Justice League will be your new team name."

After "Coming Soon" you should add "for jye and Khev."

Good stuff, it seems WB wants to create some early positive buzz by giving the critics some early access to the film. It's a smart move, but I doubt it'll make much of a difference if Snyder can't make a good movie. This movie might suck too, but this JL thread has the potential to be as good and as entertaining as the BVS thread.

I like that the film will have some humor and be a bit more colourful. The blue tint on Bat's costume is great news too, and it's a nice homage to Jim Lee's Batman. Hopefully that means we get the yellow emblem in the near future.

Flash sounds like the most interesting and most fun to watch character in the film, which makes sense, but I hope the costume has a cool design.

Very true. For instance DiFabio was very excited about a lot of the early footage for BvS when he saw it out of context. Then when the finished film was released he hated it.

You know I wouldn't leave you out of it!

You know what hurt BvS the most?

The delay leaving a vacuum for negativity to build up.

No delay for JL will make for a much better environment for WB to sell JL although the stink of BvS will be ever present trying to derail it all.

WB better hit this one out of the park. They have to. If this is as good as or worse that BvS then I see a complete make over of their whole movie slate. They had a lot riding on Snyder.

The hate campaign was probably the most freakish thing I've seen ever in terms of hate campaigns. Everybody tried to make money or a name for themselves out of it, and WB didn't even put up a fight.

It was like the movie was the female Ghostbusters.

Also the colossal blunder of giving away the whole movie in one trailer.

We know they eventually make amends and all team up but at least make it a MYSTERY that people have to pay for.

Starting the buzz early is good, but they also need to constantly review the final product and polish it if necessary. Maybe even book the cast for reshoots.

Then get critics behind you. Get the word out that Snyder and WB have 'redeemed' themselves with Justice League. Get that buzz going around that it's the superhero movie that everyone has GOT to see much like Deadpool and Civil War have been this year thus far.

....and pray to GOD Marvel doesn't drop a movie the same day as JL.

Awwwwwww ;_;

****ing stupid marketing campaing man.

The stuff about JL being a lighter film doesn't bother me in the slightest, and it actually feels natural, as BvS ended on a very optimistic note. People tend to see it as dour because of the death of Superman, but they explicitly show you that his resurrection is imminent, and his "death," as it was, is the final part of his journey to being Superman.

We see Batman, who was so lost and disillusioned that he'd become everything he'd fought against given hope and coming to the realization that "men are still good," and the way he speaks of assembling the Justice League with Diana has a distinct confidence to it; he's clearly perturbed by Lex Author's talk of looming cosmic threats, in tandem with his strange visions and nightmares, but his desire to protect the planet almost goes hand in hand with his newfound faith in humanity, and, as I said earlier, I would love to see the blue and grey with a yellow oval, and I feel like it would work on a thematic level, as well.

For one thing, you could say that the blue and yellow components are visual components inspired by Superman, and, for another, you could have the brighter pallet reflect not only his newfound optimism, but his transformation into a hero from the hulking, violent monster that he had previously been. Similar to what Darwyn Cooke did in The New Frontier. Batman rescues a child from abductors in his classic, devil earred, golden age costume, but his appearance has the child going into hysterics, which inspires him to adopt the blue and grey of the silver age.

God, I hope not. No blue and grey costume for me personally. Bats is a dark character and the last thing I want to see is a blue costume on him. Keep the blue for the comic books. IMO, it just doesn't work in a real world setting.

DC will just move the release time around the way it did when Civil War was announced the same day.

Yeah, but. . .crazy billionaire vigilante, genius inventor guy who dresses like animal to beat up crooks doesn't work in general in a real world setting, IMO. Quibbling about his color coordination should probably be a secondary concern here.

 

[filip629]

One article mentioned that Batman will have two suits...once again.

The first is very similar and basically the same as his black & gray Batman outfit from BvS. The second is supposed to be more 'tactical', but likely not as chunky as his armor outfit from BvS. Likely just beefier to deal with the Apokolips threats...

That'll work for me. Glad they are still focusing on black and grey for his costume.

By real world I really meant "live action movie". I'm sorry but seeing a bright blue and grey Bats would look ridiculous IMO. Seeing as every major Bat flick has stuck with a black themed costume, I'm obviously not the only one who feels this way. I'm for NEVER seeing a blue Bat costume in a live action film. No one has to agree with me.

Not even the comics use it anymore, good riddance. Doesn't work for the character in general at all, in any setting, unless it's a superfriends/silver age setting.

Buuuuuuut, maybe there's a way they can work blue accents here and there, it could work.

And I for one am curious to see a yellow oval, preferably without the blue. a Homage to Keaton's suit.
