In the last episode I saw, Daredevil throws dudes down stairwells and wraps chains around their necks and loving pulls, this is moments after he argues against killing people to The Punisher.. The whole ideal of not-killing is very grey in comics because it relies on intentions and ideals which is another debate altogether.

"There is no such thing" was a funny and canon cop out.

Not to mention that what makes Edgar Wright special is the execution, the countless little touches and the expert editing.

Hot Fuzz is still just amazing to watch over and over again, though to me much more so than Shaun of the Dead or World's End.

She mentions in BvS that she left "the world of man" for 100 years since that photo was taken so I'm guessing that's an indication that the Wonder Woman standalone film will be pretty goddamned dour, at least towards the end, if it makes her react that way.

She comes back, though. So it wasn't a complete downer.

Iron Man murdered terrorists who were keeping him hostage to make weapons to kill more people. Probably would've chopped his head off too.

I'm very okay with self defense movie murder. Not okay with flaming throwing people's moms

By the time he was fully armored none of those dicks could do poo poo to him but he still set everything on fire including people instead of just turning a cheek and activating the jetpack. That's not "self defense".

They were originally slated for May. Then when Mr. American Part III announced it would also be in May, DC backed the gently caress out.

Correction: They were originally slated for December until The Force Awakens moved to December. I hope you wouldn't fault any other movie for getting the hell out of the way of loving Star Wars.

I guess I'm just assuming in JL it'd be more brief and probably rounding up several of them at once to pitch the idea of Super Friends. Then again it's JL part 1, so the first hour could be just recruitment scenes.

To be fair, post-credits stingers like the Marvel Method are even briefer than that. What I'm saying is I'm more expecting a good chunk of JL1 to consist of the kind stuff that people complained about with Iron Man II, but integrated into Avengers 1.

That doesn't make it any less likely that they were scared of the possibility of it bombing. It just worked out well for them.

There's being kind of worried and then there's the state of abject panic that replacing a director and rewriting 3-4 movies implies. One of them is a literal fevered wet dream by a piece of human excrement.
