>>Zack Snyder is no longer the director
If this were the case i'm quitting DC movies. I don't want more casual shit.
Since it seems to be JL related, I think we can hold off on Suicide Squad stuff. Plus, all of the advance reviews of SS made it seem like it had lukewarm-to-warm reception, which is nothing to be excited about (because let's be honest: almost any movie told straightforward would be more pleasing than Snyder's stuff).
Snyder getting dropped would be the only truly happy news. But I doubt that.
Still, I'll keep my eyes open to whatever disappointments come from this...
>>83910226
you can get a non-casual director who isn't bad though
>>83910056
>>Zack Snyder is no longer the director
Sounds too good to be true.
>Suicide squad had a secret test screening. The embargo will lift on Tuesday and it will be a hit.
Please be true
>>83910226
>Zack Snyder
>Not casual
Pick one.
>Zack Snyder is no longer the director
Aren't they almost like halfway through filming at this point?
They would have just delayed if he was getting dropped and we would know if there was a delay
>>83910250
probably is. Isn't his wife some WB bigwig?
>>83910331
Shes a producer, but WB did do some reorganization of power
>>83910056
>Zack Snyder is no longer the director
We have known this for a while now and even if we didn't, it was the most obvious inevitable move.
Is just that some seem to think that he will be removed from the Justice League that is currently filming, which it isn't the case.
He still gets to finish that one, but after that it's over for him.
>Zack Snyder is no longer the director
Would litrally mean a 3 year delay at minimum
kys op
and an embargo lift 2 months in advance are you really retarded?
cant wait for reddit to run with these gay rumors tho
>>83910355
Then it comes too late to matter.
>>83910056
I'm calling shenanigans on Suicide Squad embargo. No movie, no matter how good, is gonna let reviews open up 2 months ahead of time. At best it will open up after July 4th weekend to build hype.
>>83910408
Maybe embargo means movie news in this case?
>>83910408
The movie comes out in a little over a month, which is about when Civil War's embargo lifted.
>>83910145
Great, now Arrow can find all new ways to disappoint us.
>>83910427
August.
>>83910455
It's almost July, bud. It comes out August 5th. That's 1 month and 1 week from Tuesday.
>>83910558
For whatever reason I though Suicide Squad was coming out second week of August.
>>83910425
only movie news left would spoil the plot. It makes no sense for any SS embargo to lift when they haven't even screened it besides to test audiences.
>>83910597
>they haven't even screened it besides to test audiences.
That we know of.

>>83910711

Rick Famuyiwa was confirmed as director already, famalam.
If anything, Snyder would be off JL2.
If not off JL2, then he'd be co-directing with somebody else.

Please.
It'll be an official still of the JL and official announcement of the full cast including the villain. Maybe some new movie announcements.
And some run-of-the-mill interviews talking about how groundbreaking the movie will be.

not it isnt
this is like people saying BvS made 'almost a billion' dollars. no it didnt. stop rounding
>>83910826
Thats fan art based on concept art that looked nothing like the Snyder/Mamoa costume. We should hopefully see it on Tuesday
>>83910828
Maybe they liked it?
I thought it was average.
Then again I liked John Carter and people hated it
>>83910832
Seth Grahame-Smith, the original director, got the boot, and they picked Famuwiya to replace him because he can appeal to teen crowd.
>yfw the news that will make DCEU fans happy is that Joss Whedon was hired to direct Justice League
Snyder is actually a good pick for JL because it's sure to be mostly spectacle with little substance.
>>83910865
That's fan art improving it.
>>83910888
Snyder can't even do spectacle right.
>>83910056
Snyder needs to still be apart of the DC Universe, but as an ideas/cinematographer type of deal. His shots really do magic. The Extended Cut of BvS is also great, better than the one we had in theatres(should have just realized this version desu).
>>83910124
>>83910888
if he adapts geoff's justice league word for word, it could work. just change little things to work for this universe
>>83910922

>>83910874
Don't make me vomit.
If WB got the Russo bros then DC fans would be happy because they made one actually good marvel movie and civil war that people pretend to enjoy
>>83910347
they don't have the money to buy the Snyders out of their contracts
>>83910355
>after that it's over for him.
No, after that he's still got a contract. BvS, as its defenders were so keen to point out, made a lot of money. It did cost a lot of money - but that's WB's fault, not Snyder's. He works as all directors do to the budget he's given by the studio.
As long as his movies make big money, even if they're unprofitable theatrically there's no reason to get someone else in. Those movies will make a lot of money for the studio over the years to come.
Sometimes turnover is more important than profit.

I legitimately loved BvS on every level and thought Civil War was yet another dredge through the mediocrity that is 90% of the Marvel movies.
It isn't company wars if someone has an opinion different from you. My comment above could probably be considered company wars but until Marvel starts pumping out movies that are actually good or until DC starts making movies that are bad it isn't wrong.
>>83912518
His hairline looks better these days, I think he did something to fix it
>>83911738
I don't understand why heroes not fighting to kill each other is a good thing. We're supposed to be extremely emotionally invested in the fight in a way that keeps us on the edge of our seats and our hearts pounding until the very end. You know, like a crazed Batman fighting a reluctant Superman to the death.
Instead we got a bunch of hypocrite assholes jumping around in a sequence that looks like and is about as exciting as action figures being thrown at each other. Then they stop when Rhodey falls down in the same way a baseball game would stop when we were little if a kid got beaned in the face with the ball.
Also, Spidey had not exhibited super strength in front of Cap before he dropped a loading platform on him.
It was fun to watch for Spidey antics and Giant Man but it was pretty shitty. The airport fight did suck.
>>83910427
Thing with CW was that they had a screeening with executives first and they loved it, then they had a screening with critics before fans or normal moviegoers and most of them love it but also pointed out some faults. If ss is showing to critics and get positive reviews then I'm hyped until then op claims are just wild speculation. Back to my cave.
What is the Suicide Squad embargo?
>>83912702
Why would they kill each other? The only one who had anything resembling a reason to kill was Black Panther, also you're supposed to care because after the fight they got sent to underwater superhero jail.
Also the airport fight had more consequences than the BvS fight even though that one was supposed to be to the death, also the action in those fights were about the same.
Spider-Man was able to yank Cap to the ground then kick him into the air.
The airport fight was not bad.
>>83912745
Why do you need critics to decide what is good for you?
>>83912868
Embargo in this context is just the period of time before a studio permits the publication of reviews. An outlet can technically publish a review whenever they like, but not complying to embargoes might mean not getting invited to press junkets and screenings, so embargoes are usually followed.
>>83912993
I can enjoy shit like Godzilla 98 and Dracula untold, but if a movie manages to have a solid script or interesting character development besides being entertaining the better imo. I think critics, as assholes as they can be sometimes, are a better reference for those points than ravish fans and "normies". The next dark night claims for BvS, or you'll be surprise guys! claims for F4ntastics weren't falseflagging here. Those twits were insane.
>>83912996
Can we take a moment to just laugh at how pathetically anti-consumer and anti-journalistic this concept is and even worse, how no one makes an issue out of it?

>>83912993
Ultimately you don't, but someone capable of thinking critically and understanding how to effectively use a given medium probably has an opinion worth considering. The trick is differentiating that from all the self-aggrandizing media junkies and fawning fanboys out there.
They're not infallible of course; Roger Ebert took a long time to come around to appreciating Mask of the Phantasm as more than just a kids' cartoon, for example, and some critics do play favorites. I tune out the RLM guys when there's a Tarantino or Max Landis film being reviewed because they'll gush shamelessly, but otherwise I think they're pretty solid.
>>83913394
It's not really either of those things.
Embargoes are a necessity in the internet age. Studios rarely, if ever, had to deal with early reviews because who would care about a random print article released 30+ days before a movie is released? From a journalistic standpoint, it'd be releasing the great story when you know no one is going to read it or care.
Now, early reviews are done ENTIRELY for attention. An early negative or highly positive review for a tentpole movie == easy clicks, easy money. It'll be the first thing that populates RT/Metacritic, and everyone will read it and potentially spoil themselves.
And it should be noted (and emphasized!) that embargoes aren't just for negative reviews. They're for *all* reviews.

>thinking the invited bloggers would ever say bad things about it and burn the chances to be invited again for more exclusives
WB is early "bribing" them with exclusives to fool you all. They would never invite journalists to write in-depth stories about the production so early if it wasn't for the BvS fiasco. That kind of stuff always happens when they are in post-production.
>>83913575
The one you should laugh at are the journalists who go "perks are more important than informing people" not the companies.
>>83913701

No, they're not. There's no necessity to protect companies from bad press.
>>83913256
>I can enjoy shit like Godzilla 98 and Dracula untold
But those are actually good.
G98 is hated only because it diverged from the source material not because it was flawed on a technical level.

If I got superpowers I think Zack Snyder would be amongst the first 5 people I killed
>>83913394
These days, I just use embargoes to judge how confident a studio is in it's movie.
Honestly, that was the first warning sign for me that BvS wasn't going to be very good, when the review embargo wouldn't be lifted until the day off release. That combined with releasing everywhere just made it seem like they had no confidence in the movie outside of having the Superman and Batman name brand and just wanted to get as much cash ASAP before word of mouth got out that it sucked.
Meanwhile, Marvel dropped the embargo on Civil War weeks before release, and still kept the staggered release. Good or bad, it demonstrates they were extremely confident about people talking about their movie.
I hope Snyder stays edgy and pisses everyone off. That stuff was the most interesting stuff in BvS. Batman killing cunts, Superman a reluctant demigod, Lex a millenial douche. More of that please. Can't wait for the ultimate cut.
>>83910870
For the better honestly, Grahame-Smith's repertoire is quite terrible while Dope was alright.
>>83910056
More like we get comments from the producers and Johns saying its a much more collaborative effort between Johns, Snyder, Terrio, Affleck, and Berg.
Which basically means Snyder is director in name only.
>>83910056
There's been a complete silence about JL from Snyder and Affleck ever since BvS' release, something is brewing

>>83911466

How? They were all boring. The most engaging action scene was the full retard Jurassic Park ripoff with the baby.
>Especially the sub battle.

>>83921334
In fairness Donner took about 45 just to get to the first appearance of adult Clark Kent, and Snyder was basically shooting a remake of the original Donner script - which was for two movies shot back to back.
He still made a horrible movie, but the long, drawn out Krypton scenes are a big part of establishing how alien Superman is and how stupid Kryptonians in general are, and they were only in the first movie because Donner was a huge Superfag and didn't want to make a more generic movie.
>>83922912
>Snyder is the shit.
>Snyder not directing
Awful, unless it meant that he was free to direct an actual sequel to MoS.
>>83912054
Then you mean it would be a smart move, which means that WB is unlikely to do it.
>>83910056
The good news is Snyder IS STILL the director, so we'll only have to watch 2 more movies before they give up completely and reboot again, as is DC tradition.
>>83921334
>This fucking guy took 20 God damn minutes to tell SUPERMAN'S ORIGIN STORY
If that's all you think the Krypton sequence in "Man of Steel" ´did then you're an idiot. It lays the thematic foundation for the entire film, foreshadows the coming events and gives reason and depth to the central conflict of the film.

That's complete bullshit.

This. I love DC, but I wish nothing but failure for the rest of Snyder's days, in no small part because of how disappointing his DC movies have been for me.

Such subtlety. Is that supposed to be Allah? Moses, maybe? I really can't tell.

>Why do people fail to mention that War Machine is hit once by Cap's shield and then sent to the shadow realm for 5 minutes
Lmao what I don't remember this
>>83926788
For real watch the airport fight again. War Machine basically says "I'll take cap!" And Black Panther says "I'm going for Bucky!" But Captain America throws his shield at him and then Iron Man talks to Spiderman. Then War Machine just disappears and it's Black Panther fighting Captain America instead. It's so weird.

Finding Dory did horrible in test screenings with critics
Guess what?
It took in $136.2 million in North American theaters this weekend, making it the highest-grossing animated debut of all time it beat out the new Dwayne Johnson film that came out the same weekend.
They are now adjusting this to believe it could break 9 hundred million which could lead to the top 4 highest viewed/sold films of 2016 being Disney and another black eye to the test screening praised BvS knocking it down to 5th place and losing out to a Finding Nemo cash in.
>>83927155
It's strange that WB's only big hit has been BvS. Disney, Columbia, Fox all have a good mic bag of titles in the top ten. But WB just has BvS and nothing else.
what other films do they even have lined up this year?
>>83926738
Christian here.
That symbolism is so cheap and cliché that I actually consider it blasphemy. Both towards Jesus and towards art.
>>83927521
Jesus is good
Superman is good
Everyone can be like Jesus
Everyone can be like Superman
>>83927588
Deep.
Bravo Snyder.
Even The Brothers Karamazov couldn't hope to make such an in-depth statement on the problem of divine demandment.
>>83911061
>BvS, as its defenders were so keen to point out, made a lot of money.
It made less of a net profit than Man of Steel. It made less of a net profit than the last two SOLO Batman movies.
It's practically a flop considering how much money studios spend on advertising.
>>83911061
>Harry Knowles still owes the IRS six figure
What?
>>83912089
What the fuck
I was beginning to wonder about Johns. You know nothing about his personal life.
>>83929384
Did you know his dad was a Lebanese immigrant at least?
>>83927521
Lapsed Catholic, but same deal.
I also think the all-knowing hologram versions of Jor-El are blasphemous toward God. He wasn't like that in the comics, he didn't care about Earth.
The Kents should be enough to give Superman his moral standing. Downplay them too much and you go beyond zero impact to negative.
>>83929442
Yeah, I knew that.
Honestly I thought the dude was permanently single, but I guess there wasn't any logic in that, since he seemed fairly normal.

>Call it the Comic-Con International version of sky-writing.
>During a DC Comics panel on Friday covering their superhero comics, Johns – the writer of "Flash" and co-writer of "JSA" – got a question from a member of the audience that he's unlikely to get asked again:
>"I am Geoff Johns' girlfriend, and I want to know if you'll marry me."
>She then nervously deposited an opened ring box on the table in front of a visibly stunned Johns. After a passionate kiss, the couple was excused by the panel members.
>As Johns and his bride-to-be headed out of the room, a fan called out "did you say yes?"
>Johns' reply: "Hell, yes!"
>>83911061
>AICN is now a pure clickbait site.
yeah that's why people follow the writer and not the site or knowles. I think Quint's the only decent writer still there
A brazilian reporter pretty much confirmed it's the official first look at the team assembled.
>>83929554
>you will never be Geoff Johns
>>83929554
Geoff Johns is basically living the dream.
>>83929577
source man
>>83929528
Honestly I think he's just a private guy in general. We didn't even learn that until he created Simon.
>>83929773
Yeah, he really likes to keep quiet.
Makes me wonder about his private life. Dude probably goes down hard, we just never really hear about it.
>>83929797
Well we know he also likes bulldogs and seems to adopt older ones from shelters and they keep dying on him. ;_;
>>83921334
Yeah, Morrison managed to tell his origin in four panels, Siegel and Shuster managed to tell it in a single page, Fleischer managed to do it in twenty seconds.
>>83929901
>Geoff Johns is a normie
REEEEEE
>>83929753
He posted this in reference to the big announcement.
It's basically describing suits. You can make out the words "metallic", "cloth", "power in hands", etc.
>>83929577
Why wait? It just leaked.
>>83929979

Thanks for the wallpaper anon.

Batman's dick looks pretty large in costume
Or we're getting an announcement about Batman's Dick
>>83910056
I seriously hope Suicide Squad is good, I didn't mind MoS but BvS really disappointed me, but hey, maybe the "Ultimate" Cut will redeem it, maybe a director's cut is all it needs. It worked for Kingdom of Heaven.
>>83930060
BvS was for the fans, Suicide Squad is for the normies. It's perfect because they get money and I get amazing content.
>>83930168
>BvS was for the fans, Suicide Squad is for the normies.
That's a terrible approach though, because almost has heard of Batman and Superman, I know normies like Suicide Squad too but they hardly know anything about them. Also
>for the fans
That is a terrible strategy.
>>83927305
Tarzan for 4th of July looks to be, at best, mediocre. Suicide Squad could make money. They're banking on Fantastic Beasts to capture Harry Potter magic again, but they forgot to add that name for marketing. They have an animated movie about Storks for September. And Ben Affleck's Accountant movie about an autistic accountant who is actually a hitman. So really only 2 movies that can be said to be blockbusters.
>>83929978
no one who husbandos Sinestro and Captain Cold could be considered normie
>>83930168
>BvS was for the fans
Anon, I don't know how to break this out to you...

>>83930241
You'd think so, but Geoff Johns exists.
>>83926195
>>83926203
His hapa sons will hate their parents
His daughters will be hate their mixed race
>>83930424
Johns himself is already mixed, no turning from that path
>>83930424
/r9k/ plz leave

this is pretty much the opposite of normie
>>83929979
which Brazilian reporter?
>>83930245
>>83930262
What are you a fan of? If you are a fan of Superman, it shows how much of an impact he has on people, especially Batman. If you are a fan of Batman, it showed his unbreakable will and unrelenting resolve. It was for fans who actually like the characters.
>>83931578
>it shows how much of an impact he has on people
Except not really.
>it showed his unbreakable will and unrelenting resolve.
"Martha? All is forgiven, bro!"
>UNRELENTING
>>83931578
>"It was for the fans!"
>So here's this Superman who doesn't inspire fucking shit, a Batman who kills, Luthorberg, and a Wonder Woman who gave up on humanity a hundred years ago
>Also a Doomsday who never even grew spikes
>"For the fans"
>>83910056
And when you're wrong, when do we get to shit in your mouth?
>>83930008
Oh my god!! They look so good!
>>83931667
>>So here's this Superman who doesn't inspire fucking shit, a Batman who kills, Luthorberg, and a Wonder Woman who gave up on humanity a hundred years ago
By the end of the movie they all moved past that. Superman inspires Batman to be better and even the world, Batman follows Clark's example and doesn't even brand Lex, Wonder Woman doesn't ignore trouble and helps Superman defeat Doomsday, Luthor ends up in prison where he can possibly come out more comic-accurate.
>Also a Doomsday who never even grew spikes
Except that's wrong he does grow spikes.
>Implying that's at all important anyways it's fucking Doomsday who gives a shit
>>83929577
Which Brazilian reporter?
>>83929979
I think it also says 'Cyborg' at the top, on the other side of the page.
Which journalist is this? Reverse image search doesn't find anything, nor does searching for 'liga da justiça' on twitter.
>>83931665
>Except not really.
Look at how Batman ended up without Superman's friendship and say that again.
>Martha
If you don't think it was in character for Batman, then you're less than a casual.
>>83931667
>Superman who inspires people so much they adore him as a god
>Batman who doesn't even care about the collateral damage killing of criminals because of how bad his life has been
>Modern Luthor who still has his hair as a result of no Superboy shenanigans
>Wonder Woman who decided not to deal with humans because she sees how bad they are and has no one to disprove her
>Non-full grown Doomsday who was still incredibly difficult to kill
You do realize that Doomsday wasn't always a ridiculously strong powerhouse with spikes everywhere right? That he had to evolve that way after countless battles and deaths?
Yes, for the fans. The REAL fans who actually read comics maybe?
Have you ever read an Elseworlds? Do you even know what an Elseworlds is? This is basically an Elseworlds where the premise is "what if Superman came later?" But you probably don't know what that means.
>>83933833
>This is basically an Elseworlds
So it isn't for the fans. It's "What if Zack Snyder created the DCU?"It fucking sucks. DO yourself a favor and don't read it.
>>83933878
This. I don't really get why the hell you'd go with an original Elseworlds idea for your big cinematic universe. Why not go with something that were more representative of the actual DCU?
>>83933833
>This is basically an Elseworlds where the premise is "what if Superman came later?"
BvS shares a lot of concepts and story beats with JLA: The Nail. Which is literally an elseworlds.
