Dream bigger, it’ll just be “Hallelujah” for the billionth time as Spidey helps those firefighters raise the flag in slo-mo, Namor helps wash dust off of survivors, and a single tear rolls down Doom’s mask.

As a fan of the Suicide Squad comics the Suicide Squad cartoon movie was probably the best movie version of the squad (until Gunn's movie comes out). But I do love Escape from Arkham as far as recent animated movies go.

Give Zack Snyder Marvels. It's epic in scope, Alex Ross's art highlights the contrast of superheroes being living gods with feet of clay, and the whole concept could never work as any kind of movie Marvel would ever okay, so it'd inevitably be an endless battle between Snyder and the studio until he ultimately gets pushed out and a hastily cut together blockbuster version gets dumped into theaters.

There's a definite air in the more toxic side of that fandom of claimed superiority to the MCU. It's not a loyalty to WB thing. It doesn't really matter though, I just don't think he'd be a good fit for a cavalcade of reasons.

Yeah, actually this. There's these DCEU weirdos that are always mad at any MCU news on Twitter. Or proclaim MCU are for babies and low IQ people and so on. It's the type of people that deserve to get laughed at.

But anyways, I would love to see how would they react if Snyder is snatched by Marvel and given the reigns for a movie. Although he would be more fit for R rated stuff, IF Disney ever dares to make rated superhero movies aside from Deadpool.

I dont think anyone would care about him directing a Marvel movie negatively, unless they force him into the generic house style which is defeating the purpose, and would just be a Josstuce League 2.0.

I'd love to see him do some epic space stuff or even some cosmic Fantastic Four type stuff when Reed is actually fixing the universe and messing with Celestials and stuff because he does the beautiful imagery associated with it.

But Marvel...er...does not allow their movies to look very interesting except for 3 minutes of Ragnarok so it would probably be pointless.

I think that Snyder should do a TV show that's basically a space western, and it gets 3 seasons and a trilogy of movies to finish the story.

You could never do it because the scale of Marvels needs basically every one of your characters in there. Gotta have your Fantastic Four actors, your X-Men actors, your Avengers actors, gotta bring in everybody for a probably short appearance. Which means you've got an absolutely ballooning cost for very little gain. It's fine in a book where you pay the artist the same rate to draw Iron Man on one page and Captain America the next, but in Film/TV, particularly with each superhero being a potential blockbuster film star, those could be a big chunk of your budget meeting the biggest source of headaches in negotiating with those actors.

Plus, the MCU is hitting the timeline issue where it starts with WW2, then it kind of skips to the 90s for Captain Marvel, then basically everything else happened in the Obama and Trump administrations. In a single decade, Americans discovered that aliens were real when they invaded New York and were repulsed by the Illuminati, there were Congressional hearings on how Nazis almost took over that Illuminati and their flying death fortresses, and it turned out that the United States isn't the world's technological/military superpower—it's actually a country in Africa you couldn't place on a map. Then half the world died. Marvels got to space that poo poo out over 50 years, wholly aware that every comic from then on out would disregard what happened in the 50s and 60s to make it fit that Mr. Fantastic is permanently in his 40s.

Davros1 posted:

Nah, Snyder loves huge, bombastic sweeps of destruction, like (for good and for ill) Superman drowning in a literal ocean of skulls, and Marvels does stuff like New York being smashed by a tidal wave. Ruins is all personal misery and hopelessness.

I think you mean the eternal presidency of President-Emperor Matthew Ellis.



Edit: In Iron Man 3, Ellis is president during Christmas 2012. Killian's plan is totally useless if he's the departing president, so we have to assume he has won re-election.

He is still president in 2017.

The 2017 comes from AoS though. Luke Cage and Runaways mention the Obama and Trump presidencies, and Hillary's run, but those count even less than AoS.

Nobody's going to fund a Spawn movie decades after anyone even slightly cared about that character. If McFarlane wants to make one he'll probably have to fund it himself

Yeah, IIRC the current description McFarlane has given for his Spawn movie (that he is both writing and directing) is that it is basically a Sam and Twitch story with Spawn appearing as a minor character. Which sounds... bad.

Snyder ain't going to Marvel, he made it openly clear he hated and refused to even watch the Whedon JL, and sure it sucked but Marvel has been burned a few timer on hiring "I work alone" type iconoclasts. He should go to Blumhouse and start directing highbrow horror stuff with plenty of slowed mo.
