Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Shared universe stuff is fine and fun. Hah yeah that's why I said the first and last parts: people will hate it and it is mostly to sell merch But I just love it, I like the idea that we will see some person for 5 seconds who does matter to the universe and would have something interesting to add to what's happening even if it's not their story. I fully admit this is a personal preference that a ton of people will not share it tho. I would have loved for example a quick news clip in Iron Man 3 showing how Captain America was also searching for the Mandarin in addition to just Rhodes. Or a cutaway in the Winter Soldier showing how some HYRDA person did something to distract Stark from helping Cap once he was on the run. These things were not necessary and arguably bad fluff but I would have still eaten them up.

This is what the guy who posted the pic had to say about the cameoquote:A rough cut of Justice League has been shown to a select few including some press ( none of them will say they have seen it until around the films actual release however) As usual, no real sources to speak of so take it with a truckload of salt.

Sir Kodiak posted:Buddy, they're still making the drat movie. You don't know what the story is. We already know the broad plot beats. - Three motherboxes; one in Atlantis, one with humanity, and one with the Amazons. - Darkseid sends his general, Steppenwolf, to collect them and prepare for an invasion. - Steppenwolf leads an army of parademons to assault the three strongholds with the boxes. - Batman assembles the Justice League. - Justice League defeats Steppenwolf, but Darkseid is still coming. (And maybe Superman is evil or has amnesia?) Al Borland Corp. posted:He's referring to Suicide Squad Nah. I wasn't crazy about Leto's version of The Joker, but that is different than him having no connection to the story. He did have a narrative role in Suicide Squad and it made sense for him to be in it. Especially since they more or less made it a Harley Quinn movie.

I think Superman will show up like he did in the comics wearing his black suit and rocking a mullet and everyone will got loving bananas. It will end up as the greatest Superman moment in the history of forever.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:We already know the broad plot beats. Yeah, but we don't know why and how they happen, or how those event relate to the characters. The trailer has Jim Gordon talking about Batman working with other people again. We know the Joker was involved in Robin's death, with Batman no longer working with a team. That makes him seem relevant to Batman's story, even if he has no relation to the plot with motherboxes.

Everything is prepared, Superman's revival is almost complete. Snyder-esque slow motion zoom and fast pan around Aquaman/whoever opening a chamber. A silhouette can be seen approaching with a familiar gleaming S on the chest area. As the figure draws closer it becomes apparent that the S is gleaming and shimmery because it's metallic. Shaquille O'Neal enters the scene.

FYI everyone's favorite Superman comic, All-Star Superman, has Kal-El having an extended dream/spiritual conversation with his dead dad. It's a thing in pretty much all Superman media (including Superman the movie, of course)

Son, the day you crash landed in our cornfield we were on our way to Gotham to see a performance of Diefletor Maus. We pulled over to check out what had happened, and another man was there, we said we would take care of whatever was happening and asked him to keep it to himself. Gave him our tickets. That man's name was Joe Chill. So while we were having our Mardi gras King cake and finding the plastic baby in the middle, Bruce Wayne was becoming an orphan.

I'd actually find it funny if Leto's Joker never actually gets a featured role in a movie and is just constantly used in flashbacks and side stuff. Like, the notion that Joker's just done all this poo poo to Batman to others and there's all this history to the universe that keeps coming back to him. It would amuse me.

It would also tie in with the movie he's actually in, which is so ambiguous about his presence that you're not actually clear if he died some time ago.

thrawn527 posted:My favorite part about this part was that Lex took the time to make fancy logos for everyone. I think those logos are actually already part of their costumes. Aquaman's belt buckle, WW's arm bracelet and Flash's chest already had them. I also like Injustice 2's Joker, which was inspired by Leto but at the same time he kinda looks like that Crispin Glover fancasting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDzTdsL7aOg The MSJ fucked around with this message at 22:47 on Jun 19, 2017 |

Joker has gone up against the Justice League more than once. At one point he was arguably the most evil character in the entire DC Universe. There's a whole arc for example where Joker teams up with Mxysptlk (spelling from memory) and fucks with Superman for a while. There's also more than one story where Joker kills Lois Lane

Not to mention that time when Hal Jordan was The Soectre (the personification of vengeance and God's right hand man), Joker tricked him and became the Spectre.

Reeves talks a bit about The Batmanquote:"Look, I'm just starting Batman because literally, [War for the Planet of the Apes], as I just said, we finished about a week ago and now we're publicizing it," Reeves said. "So, we haven't even begun on Batman. For me, what's always important is to try and find a personal way in. In that way, I do feel like I relate to actors. It's about understanding emotionally, the way something is. I see this parallel between Caesar and Batman, really, which is this idea of these characters who are grappling with their own struggle and trying to do the right thing in an imperfect world and, so, I do really relate it to that kind of idea." http://comicbook.com/dc/2017/06/19/...tm_content=Link Also, Amy Pascal says Venom and Silver & Black (the Silver Sable and Black Cat film) will tie to Holland's Spiderman and by association, to the MCU quote:"Both movies will now take place in the world that we are creating for Peter Parker." Pascal explained. "They'll be adjuncts to it, they may be different locations, but it will still all be in the same world. And they will be connected to each other as well." http://comicbook.com/movies/2017/06/18/spider-man-homecoming-silver-sable-black-cat-venom-connected/

Sounds like an opportunity to introduce Maxi Zeus as a villain. He's a Batman villain who used to be a mob boss before going crazy and becoming a mob boss who thinks he is literally Zeus (as in the Greek god).

Am I the only one that reads Starship troopers as the federation invading the quarantine zone after sending the mormons as bait in a clear breach of the earth-bugs peace/armistice? Federation ( greedy for the bug lands) sends the mormons as bait so they can retaliate against the bugs starting a fight the were totally under prepared for.Works the same way the nazis used some flimsy pretext to invade poland taking over polish radios using special ops units and transmited some garbage messages about polish abusing minority germans in poland.In some way Buenos Aires was a false flag. hump day bitches! fucked around with this message at 09:40 on Jun 20, 2017 |

The Batman games told me there's a Batman villain that's Batman but his family was killed by a cop instead, so he dresses up in a costume and dedicates his life to defending innocent gangsters from law enforcement. They should do a movie about that and have the climax be Superman deciding which vigilante he finds least obnoxious.
