Would be an amazing idea if DC didn't take themselves so seriously all the time.

Yannick_B posted:Because it's not purely a Superman movie anymore. It's not about Superman and the Superman characters. It's going to be about Superman and Batman and Wonder Woman. That poster doesn't have Henry Cavill's face on it anymore, he's sharing it with Ben Affleck. I see a lot of people saying this, and I get why you'd think that way, but why can't Bruce/Diana be written in to continue Clark's narrative arc and still have it be a Superman movie? I personally love the idea of having bigger DC characters play significant roles in each others character development; if anything, it makes the world feel more expansive. quote:It might, but they're announcing her 2 years in advance. The plans for Superman/Batman are thrown together because their comic-con announcement was a logo and like, the 9th castmember of Man Of Steel coming in to read a paragraph from DKR. That is the farthest you go from "we're a studio launching this big thing that was planned all along". If something big like the Affleck casting had been done, it would've been announced there. Haha, ok. Were you the one who got all upset about them not including Superman's trunks in Man of Steel? I forget.

I would love it too but...And Bruce and Diana certainly CAN written in to continue Clark's narrative arc, but they'll be in this movie to be showcased and springboarded into other movies. They're not going to be there to be supporting characters in a Superman movie, they're there to be co-leads (Batman for sure). Having other characters can feel more expansive but Man Of Steel barely has a world to expand to begin with! I feel like the movie ends halfway into the origin and the character needs more on his own before meeting other superheroes. It could still be good! I want it to be good! I want to enjoy Superman and the DCU on the movie screen! teagone posted:Haha, ok. Were you the one who got all upset about them not including Superman's trunks in Man of Steel? I forget. I'm not upset about not including the trunks at all. But I think Zack Snyder and David Goyer sincerely thinking the costume looks "more real" or less silly because of their absence is real dumb.

Batman and Robin was the best Batman movie around and there will never be another good Batman movie again. Anyway, seeing as there isn't even a script yet or anything we know next to nothing about the next Batman movie so people worried about cramming in too many characters or whatnot are acting...premature? If anything MoS is a great leaping on point for other heroes to come out of the woodwork anyway. We just had to overpowered gods destroy a freaking city. Now it's time to see how the world reacts. If that means a certain Bruce Wayne teams up with Luthor to try develop some defense weapons against Superman awesome. If that means a magical island of women have to try figure out now if Superman is a threat to them seeing that he is an extremely powerful being, well great. There are quite a few ways the next movie can fit organically to MoS and until a trailer comes out, or a little more is known about the movie besides casting, writing it off this early on is pretty stupid.

I'd honestly skip Batman and have Marky Mark as Max Lord because the casting just fits. EDIT: Sentinel Red posted:Get tae gently caress, '66 pisses all over Batman & Robin.

It's wonderful that Death of the Author lets you construct elaborate fantasies about what you wish a movie represents, but this is the biggest load of horseshit. Batman and Robin isn't even entertaining on a "so bad it's good" level outside of Arnold. Keep that SMG level crap in CD where I already have it on ignore.

Batman and Robin is dripping with things like issues of masculinity and femininity, how men control women and vis versa in modern society, and how those things influence us as we grow into adulthood. I don't need to quote Zizek to point out that Bruce and Dick suiting up in their skintight benippled suits probably wasn't teehee a butt joke or just something for the ladies. That doesn't mean that Batman and Robin is a good movie, either. Surprisingly enough sometimes movies have messages and themes but are still bad.

Well the dude you responded to merely called it awful and you seemed to insinuate that must be due to minority suppression or something, but here you basically agree. Interesting choices and style aside, B&R was pretty awful from an entertainment\plot and writing aspect. I didn't much care for Returns or Forever in recent viewings either. '66 still got me laughing plenty, always fun.

I came off as pretty hostile, which I apologize for, but I still think you are reaching. This isn't Elm Street 2. That said, I don't think I've watched in well over a decade and have no plans to just because it has themes that I may find appealing if I squint hard enough, because it's a horrible, boring mess of a movie. But hey, what do I know? I watch Suckerpunch as a critique of the male movie going audience and their support of faux- Strong Female Character movies that really only exist for T&A and the illusion of being progressive. So I guess we can both BS our ways through movies

IGN reports (from a Latino Review source) that Avengers 2 might have another villain that could explain the origins of Wanda and Pietro. Possible spoilers: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/12/20/another-avengers-age-of-ultron-villain-revealed The rumored villain is Baron Von Strucker, HYDRA leader and father of superpowered twins Andreas and Andrea in the comics.

Makes sense, and that'd be easy to lead into from Cap 2. Redford could even be Strucker, if they modified the backstory on Secret Warriors a bit
