Depicting them having a monarchy or not showing them as bunga bunga shakes spear savages?

Why do I have to ask, its America, it's the more racist one.

I don't think its a McDonalds ad because the movie is filled with jokes about McDonalds, and they're all about how terrible they are.

I didn't notice until watching it now, Tony's armor in Homecomming is a lot like the early Ultimate Iron Man Armor. It's not as bulky and rounded, but the colours are very similar. Also wtf there only being a 4k BRD and a 3d BRD combo available. Are there enough people with 3d TVs out there to justify to make these viable still?

The type of people with a 4K Blu-Ray player are the type of people who owned 3D capable Tv's. In fact I think there are some 4K Tv's that can also display 3D.

I have one of the last 3D capable TVs. My wife got it for a song when she worked for one of the last Sony stores. It is very fun to blaze it and watch Dredd in your living room.

They still release the 3D Blurays because the movies were in 3D in theaters so I guess the work is already done.

But new model TVs have mostly dropped it.

Yes, Jim Morita and Principal Morita are both played by Kenneth Choi and the latter is the former's *grandson.

The trailer on TV made me laugh, might be the first DC movie (well other than WW) that I see in theaters since the Dark Knight.

That's all it takes I guess. Just a hint that there's a variation in tone.

These costumes (besides WW and maybe, maybe Batman) just look so bad to me. Even beyond the lovely photoshops they are just loving ugly.

Wonder Woman is the only one that looks really good.

And they should have just let Momoa not have a shirt at all. That top half of his costume is ugly as hell, but the pants and belt are fine. What's the point of making Momoa cover up when he's jacked as hell?

That'll change over time, I'm sure, but it shows Marvel's confidence in the film if they're allowing reviews to be released two weeks before it releases. From the gist of the reviews I've read so far, it seems like if you're into superhero films that don't take itself super seriously, you'll enjoy this one. I'm happy that it seems like Marvel let Taika Waititi do his own thing though.

It's out a week early in Europe.

Still early for reviews though, since they're usually only available 3-5 days in advance.

The MCU was an ambitious project but I think the fact that they are still putting out "arguably the best movie of the whole MCU" pretty much every single year exceeds even the wildest expectations. I remember when third movies in series were almost always terrible.

Guys come on. The JL poster is obviously satirizing the artificiality of using these characters, godlike individuals who are yet human, as props, and its hastily thrown together appearance something something Disney is evil.

Apparently JL is 118 minutes which is good because at least it won't be interminable like BvS but bad because they seem to have cut like 50 minutes since August, which is pretty concerning.
