well why not posted:welp this sounds like it's gonna ignore all the interesting, cool parts of BvS ... Given its reception I'm not surprised at all, they're desperately trying to Marvellise it.

Now Wonder Woman will punch him into the Harvester's beam and disintegrate him. I wonder if its a Spartan kick or she does a yell before the punch, both in slow motion.

My hope for those spoilers to be fake is because at least two points are seemingly contradicted by the SDCC trailer You can hear a news report about Lex escaping from Arkham and Diana isn't with Hippolita on Themiscyra when Steppenwolf arrives. Please WB, don't gently caress it up

When did "Dark" lose any meaning as description?  Mr. Apollo posted:Maybe her mom is still in the "prevent her from fighting" phase or she's still a kid and was put some where safe? It is a possibility I guess but that would defeat the entire point of adding Diana to the scene if is meant to set up Steppenwolf's defeat, wouldn't you think?

Ah, there they are. I was getting worried. It was a week or two before the last doomsaying rumor how the production was in shambles, how the film needs to make a hundred billion to be profitable, how it's the end of the DCEU forever, how so and so isn't the character any more or somesuch thing or a combination of something I was beginning to wonder if we'd see some more anonymous doomsaying before release.

HUNDU, I remember you summed up Faraci perfectly when you described him as a wannabe cultural gatekeeper that didn't have the complexity of thought or grasp of history to support it. Anyway can someone tell me (spoilered) what Snyder's original Superman action was going to be? It's listed in the Whedon changes that he has a motive change but since I don't know the original motive and am having trouble finding it...it doesn't mean much to me now.

Is it this one? Where is women characters' being badasses is only limited to how much butt they kick? It just reads like the sort of whitewashed feminism packaged to insecure nerds.

it's a very safe kind of feminism that gives girls the Good-Feels without actually saying anything that might piss a man off honestly that's sort of Whedon in a nutshell: he just makes the blandest and safest poo poo possible at all times. he's the Soylent of film directors.

The annoying thing, if those spoilers are true, is that it sounds like an actual arc for Cyborg is being shortened or sidelined for more Wonder Woman.

TBF Zac Snyder is a quiverfull maniac or something. Joss Whedon doesn't look like he's ever been hard. Will the merging of the two create an Apollonian superbeing...or a Dionysian monster? Edit: The best part of the Faraci thing was his response was like I don't remember this but I probably did it. Ahaha.

Warner saw what Marvel was doing with Thanos and that jort-wearing wrestler look and decided they wanted to mooch off of that action. If such a beast exists, I'd love to see an untouched Snyder cut of the movie. I'm not sure what Joss Whedon is going to bring to the film, rumors notwithstanding, but I'm ambivalent about him in general and I feel real bad for Batgirl fans.
