I'm a script doctor, and WB recently hired me and three others who coordinate the scripts for their upcoming superhero movies, working with the assigned scriptwriters to create a cohesive tone and order of events, because one of their aspirations to differentiate themselves from Marvel Studios is to, rather than doing "Phases", have one ovearching storyline that spills into multiple movies, with the events of one reflecting on the other.

If you have any questions, I'll be here for a while.

BTW, I have also done gigs for Marvel and they're totally getting Spider-Man back. They even have an actor in mind.

>>66505317
They're alright. Some are better than others. But overall, the stories are good. Let's hope the directors and cast don't fuck it up.

are they origin stories or do they go right into the fun parts?

No origin stories. That's actually one of the mandates. Their origins are referred or shown in brief flashbacks.

Do they know who their GL will be?

>>66505597
That's what makes it funny, he snaps Joker's neck but he isn't able to kill him like everyone else so he has to make a team of professional neck-snappers.

OP, please get professional help. You might think this is just harmless "fun", but sudden narcisistic behavior can actually be one of the first signs of an aggressive brain tumor.

I am mainly interested in the wonder woman movie.

Will we be getting a movie based on her exploits as a peacekeeper between the gods and man or a bridge between the gods and mortals?
>>
>>66505616
Topher Grace only wants to play Eddie. It's why Raimi couldn't get him for Spider-Man.

Which is tragic, because Topher can't do Eddie Brock, but he would have been an awesome choice for Peter.

For example, the events of "Dawn of Justice" and "Justice League" lead to the world finding out about Atlantis and its advanced military weaponry. This leads directly to "Aquaman", which is pretty much a political thriller about Aquaman trying to prevent a looming war between Atlantis and the surface and a plot to overthrow him.

Speaking of which, Black Manta is in the script, and he's fucking spot-on.

Brainiac in "Justice League".

Darkseid in "Justice League 2".

>>66505640
Hal Jordan will be in the "Justice League" movies, but John Stewart will be his partner in the solo-movie, and might appear in further "Justice League" sequels down the line.

>>66505700
Her role as an ambassador is not very prominent so far. They want to sinergize with the New 52 as much as possible, and are drawing inspiration from Brian Azzarello's work for the movie.

>>66505924
I can confirm. I'll elaborate later.

No.

Not finalized, but very likely. Smith was offered Deadshot, but he's now in talks for Rick Flagg, who is one of the three male leads. Hardy has offered Boomerang, and that's the role he's nearly signing for.

Benedict Cumberbatch interests them for Brainiac. Popular, interesting features and voice, and already has ties with the studio from his work on "The Hobbit". But they're still scouting.

For Green Lantern, I've heard a bunch of names ranging from Chris Pine, Zac Effron, Jake Gyllenhall, Jared Leto, Jack Huston... They're still figuring out quite how young they want Jordan to be. I hear Gyllenhall is at the top of their list now that he's getting Oscar buzz for "Nightcrawler".

No backstory or name given. He's just presented as a professional assassin hired to sabotage a peace treaty between Atlantis and the surface. As the movie progresses, he becomes more and more obsessed with killing Aquaman.

Pardon my /tv/, but they want a big guy to measure up to Jason Momoa. Two names that are pretty popular with the writers, but I have no idea if the studio is acknowledging or interested in, are Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Djimon Hounsou.

Either you've done your research, OP, or you're telling the truth.

A few more questions, then.

What's their take on the Flash? I've heard deep and personal, which is probably what they're going for, right?

>>66505897
Batman is a veteran vigilante, who's been active for five years when Superman appears. He's much more brutal than other versions, particularly because of Robin's death. He believes Superman represents a threat and that's the driving force of their conflict.

Wonder Woman is an ambassador of Themyscira in Men's World. Not much is revealed about her in "Dawn of Justice", other than she has come to find Superman and her mission is to protect the humans.

Aquaman is the ruler of Atlantis. Not much is revealed about in "Dawn of Justice" either. He's half-human, half-Atlantean, and is sworn to protect the surface despite the objections of his subjects.

The Flash is Barry Allen, and the accident that created him is connected to the World Engine, which is the source of several problems and abilities throughout the movies. He has elements of Wally West's personality, he's the resident jokester, comic relief and the youngest member of the team, the guy that's really breaking into the superhero business.

Cyborg is created by LexCorp as part of a robotics program that also includes Lex Luthor and Metallo, which has more sinister purposes than it appears. He becomes a pivotal character for the team-up because of a certain ability he has. As expect, he'll be the dramatic crux, because of "MUH HUMANITY".

Jordan is stil in an earlier stage of development, but they want him to be charming. That's a word that's thrown around a lot. They want him to a fun, witty guy.

Both. The Trench is also involved.

He's the Flash.

>>66506395
Marvel wants Spider-Man for a while, but they don't need him. They offered Sony a deal for a joint venture, but Sony refused, because they had a lot riding on "The Amazing Spider-Man 2". The movie wasn't a flop, but it wasn't critically well-received either, and it didn't make enough money for its costs, especially in light the studio's dwindling resources. So they went back on the deal.

Basically, Spider-Man will join the MCU, in a clean slate, a reboot. But Sony will get a cut of the profits of the movies he's in, including certain distribution rights.

>>66506452
They want to be different from Marvel, so they're going for a grittier feel. It's a mandate these movies should take itself seriously. They can have humor, that "no jokes" policy rumor is bullshit, but it'll never be like, say, "The Avengers" or "Guardians of the Galaxy".

Yep, deep and personal, exploring a lot of what superspeed does to your body and mind.

From what I remember they passed him over for Spidey 1 in favour of Maguire, but he was considered, then they called him back to be the mirror-type Eddie because they saw him as similar to the Pete they wrote.
Also when Spidey 1 was made That 70s show was pretty big. When Spidey 3 came by, it was already stale and he jumped ship.

>>66506787
Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash and Cyborg all have their codenames one way or another. Arthur doesn't want one, he believes them to be dismissive. Barry keeps trying to make Aquaman happen throughout "Justice League", as a running gag.

Arthur warms up to it by the end.

Flash and Aquaman in this are what Flash and Green Lantern were in the cartoons.

We're in the Spitballing Stage, where he just throw names around, and the studio considers whether they're interested or not. For Mera, I've heard Emily Blunt, Olga Kurylenko, Gemma Arterton and Jessica Chastain.

>>66506773
Drawns inspiration from "The Curse of Shazam". Dr. Sivana is in it, and Black Adam, despite being the antagonist, has shades of grey as he is often portrayed to be. Given it is produced by New Line, ir sort of exists outside of the more grittier world that's being built by WB. It's a more cheery movie.

He's a warrior. Atlantis is a much more barbaric society than other versions, they deal with underwater monsters on a daily basis.

They want to make Aquaman a badass. The kidn that takes a shot point blank in the forehead, gets a minor cut and shrugs it off.

That'd be really cool for the one's who've been all over in movies and TVs. A lot of Marvel's couldn't afford to do that, but DC can. Except Cyborg. He probably needs an origin movie.

>>
>>66507243
They maintained their expectations reasonably down in terms of costs, which is why there was such a marketing push, but yeah, they were aiming a little higher.

Goyer was approached to be the Kevin Feige of this new cinematic universe at first, but "Man of Steel" got WB re-evaluating their plans. His first draft for "Batman v Superman" felt too constricting, it didn't allow for broader, more fantastical elements that the studio did want to tackle. So they brought in Terrio at Ben Affleck's behest, and reworked their plan to maintain the grit, without losing the wit.

WW and Aquaman don't really have origin stories worth telling. I mean "ing of Atlantis" and "Ambassador of the Amazon" seem enough to me.

>>66507300
Is MMH really only for virgins?
>>
What's the relationship between Superman and Batman like in BvS and future movies?

Is there an actual fight between them? How does it go?

How is Luthor involved?

Is there anything about the Greek gods?
>>
>>66507635
They were less invested in that part of the plot then.

>>66507568
To me he's still the guy from Gladiator.
>>
>>66506361
>Djimon Hounsou

This is how I know you're full of shit.

If you're in ANY MCU film then you're under contract not to appear in any DC movies. So to say they're pursuing someone who can't even be in their movies is stupid.
>>
How brainiac and Darkseid involved in movies?
>>
>>66507718
>Callan Mulvey
>>
Can you tell them to hire Kanye West as Black Manta.
>>
>>66507144
That's subjective. Cape stories are like any stories. Some are lighthearted, some are not.
>>
>>66507718
>If you're in ANY MCU film then you're under contract not to appear in any DC movies.
I believe that's only for relevant actors/characters who are scheduled to appear in multiple movies.
>>
>>66507747
>Callan Mulvey

>minor actor compred to big names
>>
>>66507742
that bot that superman crushed in MoS looked a bit like braniac.

OP, are they worried about Braniac looking like a rip of Ultron?
>>
>>66507788
>implying djimon hounsou is a 'big name'
>>
>>66507801
darkseid and thanos
>>
>>66507543
Ok.
>>
>>66507826
to be honest darkseid, xmen's apocalypse, and thanos were rips long before these movies came to ideas.
>>
Any plans for Supergirl? I know she was featured in that tie-in comic but I doubt that's to be taken as canon
>>
>>66507641
He's referenced.

>>66507658
They're polar opposites, and, although they begin as rivals, they grow to respect each other and eventually become friends.

It ends in a stalemate, as expected.

Luthor is the master manipulator. And I do mean that, he's brilliant. Even when it looks like he's been had, he pulls out on top.

The Olympians are inferred to be the "Old Gods" of the Third World. They're dying, and will soon be replaced by the New Gods of the Fourth World. That's an overarching storyline of the higher-budget movies.

Why no Green Arrow?

>rather than doing "Phases", have one ovearching storyline that spills into multiple movies, with the events of one reflecting on the other.
That's literally exactly what Marvel's doing, except they have more characters to spread it out between.
That just sounds like "no i swear it's different because i said so."

>>66507543
You are literally the worst type of person

>ashamed of comic books
Why do you say this? If they were truly ashamed of making comic book movies, they wouldn't make them in the first place.
>>
>>66507906
Interesting, thanks.

Are there any interesting tidbits that stood out to you?
>>
>>66506843
How will Big Ben and Gadot even get along now?
>>
how about some plot of the movies?
>>
I know it probably isn't, but is there a reference to Superman's world of cardboard speech in any of the movies?
>>
>>66507993
they're professionals, I think they'll be fine
>>
>>66507906
Is kryptonite confirmed? How could their fight end in a stalemate without it?
>>
so villains in BVS just luthor and metallo?
>>
>>66507988
Just more retarded buzzwords
>>
>>66507718
That only applies if you have a multiple picture contract. Djimon doesn't, his character already died. Plus, we're spitballing anyway. WB might not even register him for the role.

>>66507742
Brainiac is an Artificial Intelligence that evolved beyond his creators' abilities. His directive is to collect knowledge of the entire Universe, and Krypton is one of the few planets that he couldn't do that. He is lured to Earth by the distress signal from the scout ship in "Man of Steel", and he joins forces with Luthor to capture Superman to his collection, due to Codex embedded in his DNA. In the process, he finds out about ther genetic birthright of the human race and is put at odds against the Justice League while attempting to seize it.

Darkseid is part of the New Gods who have emerged, and he is searching for Universal subjugation. The birthright is what attracts him to Earth and to battle with the Justice League. It's a fairly different interpretation of Darkseid.
>>
>>66507906
>Luthor is the master manipulator. And I do mean that, he's brilliant. Even when it looks like he's been had, he pulls out on top.
Oh good, a writer who thinks he can brilliantly write a brilliant character!
That never goes wrong!

This movie has zero chance of being good. Hopefully it'll flop and discourage DC from making any more movies.
>>
Are we getting multiple Batman flashbacks?
>>
Does Superman have some big ideological confrontation with someone in BvS? One of the things that bothered me about MoS was how passive he seemed, he never really articulated why he wanted to save humanity. I'd like it if he and Luthor had a conversation where they pretty much laid out their worldviews.
>>
>>66508053
>genetic birthright of the human race

Marvelfag here. Please explain.
>>
>>66508053
>Darkseid is part of the New Gods who have emerged, and he is searching for Universal subjugation. The birthright is what attracts him to Earth and to battle with the Justice League. It's a fairly different interpretation of Darkseid.

So he searching for anti life? and what this birthright?
>>
>>66507993
>Mulsilms aren't all terrorists and rapists
>Wow! I bet he wants Israel destroyed
>>
>>66507801
They're quite different in their motivations, and WB wants to emphasize their distinctive visuals by giving Brainiac the green-skinned look, with some minor additions to make him appear more artificial.

>>66507905
TV show. No connection to "Man of Steel", though, from what I hear.

>>66507916
They don't feel the need for him yet. But they have the "Escape from SuperMax" script in their vault and it still interests them.

>>66508019
Not yet.

>>66508030
Yes, there will be Kryptonite.

>>66508033
And Brainiac.
>>
>>66508030
Batman opens a jar of Kryptonian air
>>
>>66508105
hopefully it makes over a billion and retards like you can finally shut the fuck up after all these years
>>
>>66508105
This movie has EVERY chance of being good. I want DC to get this off the ground. I'm getting tired of Marvel's soulles generic bullshit. Time to let somebody else have a shot.
>>
>>66507993
>implying the additional hate and mistrust will not make for great on screen chemistry
>>
>>66508118
He clearly just grew up wanting to save people. Which made it laughable when his dad told him to let the kids on the bus drown. I doubt this superman is evolved enough to give a convincing ideological debate for what he does.
>>
>>66508105
>Hopefully it'll flop and discourage DC from making any more movies.
Why would you hope that tho?
There's no legit reason to wish for some piece of media to not exist.
>>
>>66508105
Remember, when the super hero movie fad dies down Marvel Studios will shut itself down and be collectively consumed by Disney. WB makes DC movies, when the fad dies down, they'll shrug it off and continue making movies.
>>
>>66508083
I didn't do much for "Dawn of Justice", I'm praising what Terrio did with him.

>>66508118
That happens. Separated by a glass window.

>>66508110
No flashbacks.

>>66508120
>>66508124
The Meta-Gene. Which will tie with the human race's potential to become gods of the Fifth World, as Jor-El had predicted with the whole "guide them into the Sun" speech. Darkseid wants to harvest that for his own benefit, and to ensure his own immortality. All gods are fated to perish and give way to their replacements, but he is unwilling to die.
>>
>>66508145
Are there Vertigo movies on the way? Could you tell them what they are?
>>
Has the ascension of Kevin Tsujihara anything to do with WB kicking into higher gear?
>>
>>66508145
Brainiac cameo in BVS?
>>
>>66508145
No plans for MMH for real, ever?
>>
how cool is the batcave in the script?
>>
>>66505298
>they're totally getting Spider-Man back

Sure. As if they have the money to get it back.
>>
>>66508240
>That happens. Separated by a glass window.

Pretty much like in Luthor: Man of Steel?
>>
>>66508240
So meta human is DC mutants?
>>
Any references to classic Batman villains in BvS? Like some memorabilia in the batcave?
>>
>>66508145
>Luther, Metallo, and Brainiac
sounds like the same problem ASM2 and SM3 had
what is it with some superhero movies trying to jam in 3 villains
it never works
>>
>>66508249
I'm not part of that, as they'll be self-contained and unrelated to the movies I'm working, but they want to tackle "Sandman", "Fables" and "100 Bullets" first. These are the ones in active development.
>>
>>66508240
> glass window
Does it perchance look anything like this, OP?

Please say yes.
>>
>>66508233
Disney makes movies too.
>>
>>66508240
I remember the Fifth World from Morrison's JLA run, interesting source.
>>
>>66508240
Have you met Geoff Johns yet op?
>>
How does that public view Superman (in BvS and afterwards) and the other heroes?

Does the JL have a headquarter, like the Watchtower or the Hall of Justice?

Do we see the Batcave? What is it like?

Is there something like the Fortress of Solitude?

What is Lois' role?

Does Batman use gadgets? Can you give examples?

What's Alfred like?
>>
Thanks OP
>>
>>66507718

or you can simply quit the contract, especially if the competition offers you a better role and more money... even Jaimie Alexander met with WB cuz her Lady Sif role goes nowhere and Marvel treats her like shit.
>>
>>66508321
I'm sorry, does Disney have the money?
>>
>>66508253
Yup.

>>66508262
Yes.

>>66508289
Not yet.

>>66508308
Pretty damn cool.

>>66508327
Yep. And the glass widow is actually used as part of both sides of the debate.

>>66508336
Sort of, yeah.

>>66508344
A joker card, an umbrella, a fixed coin, a book of riddles, yeah, they have their fun.
>>
>>66508349
Luthor is mastermind throughout movies, metallo is his goon and brainiac is cameo
>>
>>66508350
Any idea of how long the movie is supposed to be?
>>
If I pull that trip off, will you die?
>>
>>66508350
How long do you recken Ben Affleck will be Batman? And have you guys thought about how he will be replaced?
>>
>>66508158
>>66508171
>>66508222
>>66508233
Why in the world would you think, or even want this movie to be good? You people are idiots who have no idea what this film's theoretical success will bring. Nothing but disaster.
>>
>>66508321
>As if they have the money to get it back.
>Disney
>Not having enough money back to get Spider-Man back ten times over.
>>
>>66508349
Brainiac is a cameo, and Metallo is really a lackey. The crux of the movie is Batman VS. Superman.
>>
>>66508403
FIRST THEY GAVE ME "ON A FAARM"
NOW THEY GIVE ME GLASS WINDOW
DC IS THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING

Tell us why we shouldn't want it to succeed then, faggot.

What do you mean by this?

You're a loser

>You people are idiots who have no idea what this film's theoretical success will bring. Nothing but disaster.
then please, elaborate for us poor unpessimistic anons
>>
>>66508395
I know Disney & the rest of pop culture has built the image of disney of being Scrooge Mcfuck rich, but the problem isn't so much with Disney as much as it is that Sony will never sell Spiderman unless it's at a retarded high price to where Disney says fuck all to the deal.

Sony is not going to sell more ammo to Disney to blow them the fuck out in the summer blockbuster biz.

Either way deal or not, Marvel always gets it's cut.
>>
>>66508451
Dude, you are such a faggot, holy shit. I want it to be good because DC has far better properties than Marvel, and I'd like to see them on the big screen. I THINK it's going to be good because all signs point to the fact that it WILL be good.
>>
>>66507562
So Goyer's recent public criticisms of comics in general and some DC characters specifically hasn't affected his working relationship with WB?
>>
>>66508451
if its a good movie thats all I care about, you really need to calm the fuck down.
>>
>>66508451
>want this movie to be good?
Because watching good movies is fun. I'm not sure why that's hard to get.
>what this film's theoretical success will bring. Nothing but disaster.
>CASUALS INVADING MY PRIVATE HOBBY
Oh, so you're an antisocial hipster, got it.

What it could bring (and it's doubtful it even does, as it hasn't for Marvel) is more comicbook readers and sales, which the media kinda needs.
>>
>>66508490
>>66508509
>>66508510
If this movie succeeds, then the other films planned will get made, and they will all suck, hard. That must not happen.

Are Luthor corp going to be like Oscorp in spidey movies? evil corporate who responsible for villains that the hero fight
