There's also the very brief scene where Batman is on top of the Joker's car before it crashes into a lake with Harley Quinn trapped inside.

Also where he apprehends Deadpool. He's not in it much, but he is all over.

Also why does Captain boomerang have three life sentences for failing to rob an empty bank?

Deadshot, not DP.

Maybe Boomerang robbed other banks in the past? And killed dudes?
comedy option: one of his boomerangs is a nuke-erang. That's probably worth some prison time.

Oh yeah I just remembered that The Flash was in SS too. He captures Boomerang after the heist.

Was it mentioned that Captain Boomerang robbed every bank in Australia?

I presume not like, every branch. Unless he was really bored.

The opening scene of JL sounds like it's the closing scene of BvS. Supposedly it opens with Clark in his grave and Bruce and Diana gathered in mourning.

From the leaked script:

*movie opens in total darkness, then wheezing*
* thunk thunk thunk*
CLARK: hey, is anyone up there?
*thunk thunk thunk*
CLARK: guys, I wasn't dead all the way
*the sound of someone starting to hyperventilate*

Does Superman breathe? I mean he can fly around in outer space without a spacesuit so it doesn't seem like breathing is a big deal to him.

Depends on which version of Superman we're talking about, or the writer.

He wore a spacesuit in the 90s animated show, for example.

IIRC more recently he breathes because his physiology has a respiratory system similar to ours but living near a yellow sun has made him so powerful that while his body still goes through the motions he's basically good unless weakened by kryptonite/magic/whatever.

I think in the DCAU he could survive in space for a little while, but if he has time to prepare he'll put on a spacesuit before going out.

Reminded of when he was up against a Kryptonite-armed Joker who had Lois hostage (of course) and simply showed up in a radiation suit. (which the Joker destroyed with acid, but points for trying)

Here's something I've been wondering about since BvS. Did Diana bring her WW armour, sword, and shield with her everywhere? She lives in Paris and "walked away from mankind a century ago" yet when she finally decides to become WW again she has all her equipment ready to go.

I can see her using her position at The Louvre to transport her sword and shield on her travels with her but the question remains why would she bring all her WW stuff if she had decided to let mankind fend for itself?

I imagine she thought it possible Superman was a god, and came to Metropolis in part to investigate that, and had her gear just in case.

Plus even in Wonder Woman she's very very VERY unhappy with idea of ever not having her gear within reach.

Also traveling with her sword and stuff would be easy, she's always had a private jet. Not seen in the film for obvious reasons. :haw:

i just figured after a century she would have stopped bothering. But then again she's 5,000 years old so a century probably means very little to her.

You've got to admit, you are kind of implausible



Her armor and weapons were revered artifacts from her people and culture, and from a place she could never return. Of course she wasn't going to throw them away.

Mr. Apollo
Nov 8, 2000

No, of course I wouldn't expect her to throw them away. I'm just wondering why she took her stuff with her hen she travelled to Metropolis from Paris if she had stopped being Wonder Woman. I would have expected her to store the stuff away somewhere not being it with her everywhere she went.

Guy A. Person

There's obviously been a bit of a retcon so "stepping away from mankind" is even more up to interpretation. But even at the time I think there's a difference between staying out of human affairs and giving up her warrior ways. Even if she wasn't expecting an encounter with Superman, she knew a dude with paramilitary connections had found her photo.

I think it's just a comic book thing where a costume is always on hand when it's needed. When it's not needed it's either under your street clothes/business suit, or it might as well not exist until it does.

Besides, you're going to a city with a guy who made the last god look like a wuss and a crazy man dressed like a bat, probably a good idea to be packing. Or Diana just thinks she's underdressed without a sword and shield.

Jenkins said something to that effect, that the idea wasn't that she like withdrew from society completely, just that she stopped rolling around 24/7 as Wonder Woman bombastic symbol of hope that leads the good guys in their asskicking.

The whole thing with "this area I'll be visiting has an indestructible god and a psychopath dispensing their own brands of justice and the guy with my photo seems crazy and has a small personal army so I better be packing just in case" makes sense. I hadn't thought about it that way.

Where she get a new sword?

Mr. Apollo
Nov 8, 2000

I assume her new sword and shield that she has in BvS and JL were acquired through her job as a curator of ancient weapons and armour at The Louvre. Her position there would give her access to all sorts of cool stuff and she would understand what they were (Synder and DC have both said her new sword and shield are "The Sword and Aegis of Athena").
