itt: consternation and wailing about Zach Snyder's upcoming SUPERMAN/BATMAN film/sequel to MAN OF STEEL -- official title: BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE

xpost It's in the theatrical version, but the director's cut is longer and more grisley. Like in that clip of Serkis getting consumed by the larva-thing.

Eisenberg at least has being a billionaire dick down...

watching this made me realize i'd never noticed the unfulfilled foreshadowing of the bodies falling through cobwebs on the way down. love that. glad the real thing is still unavailable tho; prefer it as an overpowering infinite jest macguffin.

dunno wtf jackson thinks a giant crab would be doing down there, unless that's in a script somewhere.

well i guess this excuses it: Some species of terrestrial crabs can be found many kilometres from the sea, but have to complete annual migrations to the sea. merian cooper shoulda restaged the elephant stampede from chang w giant migrating crabs.

xp there actually was a giant crab of sorts in the original concept art for the 1933 sequence:

thought "wait i think that's a scorpion", realized the thing in the jackson sequence might have been a scorpion, still standing by my rampaging migratory crabs treatment. that concept art is great tho. should have a little caption like an illustration in an adventure novel, i guess just reading "AGGGGGGHHHHH!"

i mean no i guess it's a crab. look sorry. superman.

First look at Batfleck (and the Benmobile):

Dawn of Asshole

THIS IS THE BEST NEWS

THESE GENIUSES, MAKING THE "IRON MAN V HULK: AWW, WE GONNA AVENGE SOON" MOVIE MARVEL FORGOT TO MAKE

Because really, why have a slate like:
Iron Man
Incredible Hulk
Iron Man 2
Thor
Captain America
Avengers
Iron Man 3
Captain America 2

When you can have a slate like:
Batman's Dead
Superman's Back
Superman vs Batman: MEET THEIR FRIENDS
SUPERFRIENDS

like, could they not have the patience to make superman 2, a new batman movie with affleck, a wonder woman movie AND THEN superfriends? It's like they don't think they have time to bake a cake so they're just going to microwave the raw ingredients all fast-like.

i maybe should have included green lantern in that dc slate, but i don't think they've said whether or not Ryan Reynolds or some other actor will actually be playing GL in justice league

I recognize superhero and comic book movies aren't new but man they just seem so pathetic now and it's kind of embarrassing to just look at the slate coming up.

I really enjoyed Iron Man 3 & Winter Soldier, and am looking forward to Guardians.

Noticeably I'm only anticipating Marvel studios releases

You forgot Thor 2, croupier. As is probably all well and good. I think the thing I'mm most excited about with Justice League - Day of Justice is finding out what they intend to do about Green Lantern.

I'll never get why ppl dislike the Thor movies

Haven't seen the second one. Can't really remember the first. Definitely didn't dislike it enough to recall. I just don't think people find them memorable?

First one was great, second one semi-great with some boring thrown in

you know, I haven't gotten around to watching Thor 2 or Cap 2 despite being sure i'll like them ok, while I want to be the first on my block to see Soup v Butt: Don Justice DeMarco. So maybe Warner Bros is on to something.

david s goyer's karma sure ain't gonna help this project

http://www.avclub.com/article/she-hulk-sex-fantasy-virgins-and-other-david-s-goy-204935

What great timing that Goyer's clueless fuckheadery is akin to what DC Comics has been doing to its female characters, staffers, and readers lately.

who's Wonder Woman in this POS? If there were any justice in the world it would be Ashwarya Rai

Some random gal

Batman V. Superman sounds like somebody's ill-advised legal name change.

Place bets now if this will have a better plot, representation of Wonder Woman, Cyborg, the JLA, et al

this has been true for as long as DC comics purchase the character. since the 1980s I think?

no billy batson was captain marvel, shazam was the wizard. they just couldn't name the comic 'captain marvel'.

and of course SHAZAM itself itself is just a ridiculous anagram

yeah the decision to call him "shazam" apparently came in 2012, i assume the film will do likewise

keep thinking it would be smart if w/ one of these comics properties they went animated and maybe (brace yrself) pitch it more toward kids (albeit more 'kids and adults' a la all animated movies today). incredibles was a huge hit, captain marvel would be perfect for this, it'd be a way to monetize that property and not overcrowd the market even more, make it happen already.

as long as it doesn't crowd-out my dream of an animated, CGI-jaws remake.

Also no one wants to see a live action Shazam.
