No movie with Tim Curry and Ian McKellan can be all bad.

I don't have time to watch the whole movie before bed, but the extended freeway scene on the Deadpool BRD is pretty funny as Colossus keeps changing from full CGI, to place holder, to the stand in during the extended parts.

I think Dick Tracy is my favourite Batman '89 copycat. (Actually, it's probably The Crow, but I'm not sure if it counts.)

I'm not really sure what is dumb about that. It's a two-part film and having a minion dude be around for the first part is more sensible than trying to drag Darkseid out over two movies. Plus they have to bring Superman back and having him come back for a victory is more likely.

That article's source is Devin Faraci's article and he makes no mention where he heard that it's Steppenwolf. He just says "we know it's him" http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2016/05/11/we-know-the-villain-of-justice-league

Darkseid is the DCU's most interesting and charismatic villain, he could easily carry two movies by himself. I'd argue that especially with Snyder's sensibilities that a JL part 1 doesn't even need a villain, or at most the intimation of one. Like the whole point of the JL is that in direct contrast to the Avengers they're not a team who forms up to fight bad guys, they're a governmental body who deals just as much with ensuring stability and the interactions of its members as it does with fighting bad guys. Especially considering how much of BvS was spent on people arguing with each other, I'm sort of weirded out that a movie in which that would be actually appropriate gets some penny-ante totally boring villain. And in either case I'd rather the villains be actually interesting over "CGI dude who was introduced in a cut-for-time dream sequence".

He just says "we know it's him" As much as I dislike Faraci he reported Doomsday, KGBeast being Lex's henchman, and Wonder Woman's photo being plot points n BvS back in 2014. So he has some kind of source with info.

Darkseid is interesting because he is an omnipotent dark force who can't be easily defeated and who commonly acts through catspaws and minions. Blowing your load on him right out of the bat is less interesting than having his stable of interesting minions around followed by building up to the big man himself. This isn't even just DC, it's pretty common stuff in general. Bond fights Oddjob or Jaws before he fights the mastermind and so-on.

Paolo Rivera, whom some of you will remember from Mark Waid's first volume of Daredevil or some of his more recent Valiant work, has just shown the last of his Captain America trilogy painted poster series that he's done for the casts of each movie. And the last one is just as good as the last two.

Considering that the two main villains of the DCCU have been Zod and Doomsday, respectively, implying that it's not a series fully intent on blowing its load at every available opportunity seems faulty at best. And either way there's a middle ground between "Darkseid can't be the main villain of both movies" and "Steppenwolf should be the main villain of one movie". He's Steppenwolf. He's an immensely uninteresting villain.

just catching up with the thread, but the idea that a Squirrel Girl movie in the MCU would be impossible seems bizarre to me if you've read even one issue of her current series

Steppenwolf is fine for a lead in to Darkseid.

He's an immensely uninteresting villain. What precisely is wrong with Steppenwolf? Like I don't get why you're acting like he's The Worst Thing Ever. Edit: I also presume it won't just be Steppenwolf punching the Justice League, it will be Steppenwolf as the commander of Darkseid's forces and will include other members of the New Gods Krew. Also like this is a movie version so it's pretty likely he'll be a fairly different version of the character anyway. ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 23:39 on May 11, 2016 |

Since they're obviously going to be full-on Apokalips by JL2 I wonder if they can get Ed Asner back to play Granny Goodness. For that matter, who's going to play Barda and Scott Free?

I don't care about Steppenwolf, but he'd be a fine person to waste the time of the Justice League while Darkseid breaks into Wayne Manor and makes himself at home on the couch.
