Pattern Ghost Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 I have nothing to add, just posting this pic from the article zslane linked. Ms. Gadot really looks the part here, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlord Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Eh, an epic bad idea is a tv show based in Gotham City with no Batman but all his villains. I gave that 5 hours of my life so I'll still give this a shot. It seems fine to me. Christopher R Taylor and Cassandra 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost-angel Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Man Of Steel was such an atrocious piece of crap it's hard to see any movie being worse, so I'm optimistic. Trencher, bigbywolfe, Osprey and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Frankly, I find the nu52 turning her into the daughter of zeus far more jarring departure than the movie starting in WW1. but that's just me.

Bazza Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Jem & The Holograms aka Hanna Montana the movie (although a fun film, and has some of the tropes of Jem, the robot 51N3RG.Y is fun) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 From zslane's link the director is Patty Jenkins who Natalie Portman recommended for director of Thor 2, which we know didn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 The 2015 Fantastic Four. I enjoyed the film for what it was. Although it was only FF in face value only, i.e. the bare minimum. Jem and the Holograms was the same, but felt it had a smidgen more respect for the cartoon it was based on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlord Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Also, if you really want to stick to the source material, then Wonder Woman will be tied up and gagged for half the movie so....

gewing Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 That sounds really interesting. Different strokes for different folks. To me it is more slaughter of characters and backgrounds just because they can. And get off my lawn ya damned whippersnappers!

slikmar Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Again, if the story is good, then it will work. The article has an interesting point. Massey, I actually liked Ghost Rider (for what it was, and the scene with the 2 ghost riders riding side by side is a favorite of mine) and Daredevil (though the director's cut is better). gewing and Pariah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlord Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 re: Daredevil - The fight scene in the park with Electra and the teeter-totter completely ruined the movie for me. I can accept the cheesy bits here and there that they threw into what was supposed to be a mostly serious movie...but that was over-the-top campy silliness that pulled me right out of the movie and ruined the Electra character IMO. bigbywolfe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost-angel Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Teh Bunneh has pointed out in a few conversations we've had over the respective DC/Marvel movies... DC is running headlong from their past and their own stories over the years. Marvel is mining it for the gold and trying to bring it to the masses as best they can. We can easily see which one is succeeding here... Trencher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkness Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 I like comic book movies. BUT, DC is not alone in issues. All of the major Marvel sequels have been lame and riding on the coattails of the originals. And the X-Men based movies have mostly not stood up to repeated viewing for me at all, some I didn't even find interesting the first time, although there are a couple I haven't seen yet that have been recommended by friends, so I'm looking forward to seeing them. This isn't even bringing up Hulk. Outside of The Avengers, there is strong argument to call each attempt a failure. There is no question that the Lou Ferrigno Hulk was more beloved than any other stand alone attempt at the character. The problem for Superman is that fans do not want changes, and non-fans do not want to go see the same thing again. Superman is singular in being THE superhero, very difficult to pull that off at all. Batman has yielded some of the most successful comic book movies for the longest, though there are plenty of dogs, and plenty of mediocre movies from that.

ghost-angel Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Well... the best hope for that is a level of mind boggling cartoon violence to at least make it kind of fun to watch... like fireworks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattern Ghost Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 I like their pick for Harley Quinn. The rest, not so much. Probably will Red Box or Netflix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
