Justice League (2018)

Started by tkitna233 pages

I thought the Watchmen was really good and even liked the movie ending better then Moore's, but then again, I had read the book before the movie came out. Seems like the people who didnt care for it had no idea what it was about beforehand. Thats cool because it wasnt a typical superhero movie where there was senseless action and fighting throughout. It leaned more on the intellectual side. The Watchmen is considered one of the greatest comic books ever written and the movie copied it. Cant see how comic book fans did not like the movie.

The JLA can work and will make money when and if it ever gets done, but like somebody else has already said, it will be labeled as the other Avengers movie. That doesnt bode well for it.

I too am puzzled why we have a thread on this topic. Everything is pure speculation as no moves have been made.

Going by this logic, I guess X-Men Origins: Wolverine was the shit. There are a number of movies with varying quality that have been good but not did so well at the box office. Recently, Dredd comes to mind. Watchmen is awesome.

Watchmen is terrible. Boring and just all in all not enjoyable.

I thought the opening was the opposite.

Loved when Rorschach died.

Doc Manhattan and Ozymandias were merciless. We all knew Manhattan was #1 though.

One thing I will agree on is that Manhattan would crush Superman. Then again the guy got his ass kicked by some bully in a diner showing without his powers he's a joke.

Everybody got an opinion.

thanx.................................🙂

Movie Superman is molecularly (as in periodic table) light years beyond Doctor Manhattan's physiology. Even though he recreated his form into indestructible matter from the sub-atomic level, you don't see him barreling through the atmosphere manipulating his center of gravity to go back in time or hauling radioactive materials that negate his equivalent ability to psi-consciously manipulate intrinsic fields sorround atoms (Superman's Kryptonite-esque).

The new Superman probably won't be as powerful as Doctor Manhattan though. More on movie Thor and Hulk's level, with considerably greater speed and striking power than the two.

I think I may be the only one actually excited for JL.

Reason 1, The line up. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Flash. We already know batman and superman no matter which incarnation it is, we know them (hopefully Cavil will be reprising his role). GL has already had a stand alone movie so his foundations are set. The only two needing introducing are flash and wonder woman. Flash doesn't need a great back story. Just a hint would be enough to spawn a stand alone film. And as for wonder woman. Well Its wonder Woman. by 2015 the AMAZON show will be on air and movie goers will have an idea of her back story.

Reason 2, ITS JUSTICE LEAGUE!

LOL. The guy was beaten up in a diner. The guy was dominated by Luthor and henchmen. The guy is easily beatable. The guy also failed to save Lois. Manhattan can't be harmed by Superman and is beyond him in terms of intelligence and raw power to the nth degree.

No Superman on screen has ever been on Manhattan's level. The guy is rocked by manholes and Coke signs while at the same time struggles to stop buses.

As far as education goes, Jor-El provided more education than any human being has. "Knowledge from dozens of other worlds spanning 28 galaxies." The knowledge of a civilization thousands of years ahead of humanity. As for intelligence he's a Kryptonian thousands of years ahead of any human being, including some Physicist who has gained psi-conscious awareness....beings in such an advanced civilization would need to be millions times more intelligent to grasp all the knowledge alone. As for power, Doctor Manhattan can create life but he'd never be able to alter his molecular structure through manipulation of sub-atomic particles, to gain the physical abilities of a Kryptonian under yellow sunlight, pertaining only the five movies released. His feats don't match up, why would you take any weaknesses like Kryptonite when considering pure unspoiled physical and supernatural power between the two? One can only rationlize through direct feats. Doctor Manhattan can stop nuclear missiles, so can Superman, Doctor Manhattan can manipulate matter, Superman can't, Superman can propel himself at limitless speeds to traverse time and has unlimited invulnerability (excluding Kryptonite) and possesses infinite strength, Doctor Manhattan can't and does not.

In fact, Superman destroy the world's nuclear arsenal, preventing the threat of nuclear annihiliation, Doctor Manhattan had to find an alternative energy source, he didn't have the sheer speed nor the awareness to destroy all of them, as stated by Ozymandias. Superman simply zipped around, got all the missiles, and tossed them into the sun.

Dr. Manhattan is far superior to any human being. For all Jor-El's intelligence he didn't save his people. LOL. I could care less if they are ahead of earth they aren't ahead of Manhattan. Manhattan doesn't need to gain their abilities because frankly it'd be a downgrade.

I don't expect Superman fans to grasp common sense so don't worry I will go easy on you. If he had unlimited vulnerability he'd never have been hurt. Listen don't waste my time with your fanfiction. The guy was worked on screen and struggled with a bus yet you claim infinite strength. LOL. Manhattan doesn't need to do so. Manhattan can replicate his body and reform from having his form completely destroyed. Superman struggles with a human opponent in Luthor so it seems Luthor is more intelligent than Superman directly. LOL.

Superman isn't even the smartest guy in his own movies. An earth man is smarter than him. Again Jor-El's civilization 's progress has no bearing on a guy who grew up on a farm so please make an actual point.

Manhattan didn't interfere as much and was more passive but unlike Superman was never threatened by any of his foes. Superman was mainly threatened by his human adversary with no super powers of his own making it that much more embarrassing.

Manhattan>>>>>>Superman. It's not up for discussion. Just leave with whatever pride you have left at this point.

Sorry I copied and pasted from Comic Book Movies. Here's the quote:

--------------------

I don't care what PR says, I'd be happy with this happening.

I am sure it would have to come to this to compete with marvel. Hopefully, dc can make themselves competitive again in the movie industry.

What does this tell us? There’s not a lot of real info out there and there’s also not a plan in place at Warner Bros., at least not one that so many insiders claim to know about. But if there’s going to be one soon, it’d be very smart to continue building from the foundations they’ve already set. They have a worldwide box office draw in Christian Bale’s Batman, and they have a recognizable, likable leading man in Ryan Reynolds – despite the weaknesses of the shoddy film (Green Lantern) built around him – and if our anticipation pays off, they’re going to have a badass new Superman as well. Justice League should be embracing these assets and building from it. It really is that $imple.

According to Latino-Review‘s latest Justice League report, that may be what they’re doing. Their report (see below for video) claims that in response to Disney’s acquisition of Star Wars and the massive success of The Avengers franchise to date, Warner Bros. is bringing Christian Bale back, for the simple reason that his films, based on a solo character and directed by Christopher Nolan, brought in over a billion dollars each on the last two installments, something Marvel was only able to achieve (so far) with a team-up.

With Batman DC already has the edge of Marvel. Star Wars is there real competition, DC has better funding and better writers than Marvel.

I don't mind Bale reprising his role but they're really going to have to redesign his costume to make it more agile & flexible. Otherwise he's gonna look awkward & clumsy in a JL group fight situation.
Also more live wire action where Batman can be seen leaping & "gliding" with his cape.

Avengers is superior to any Batman film. That's just one marvel franchise. Xmen, Spiderman, Hulk, Ironman, Blade, Thor, etc. LOL at comparing the Batman to the entire marvel film universe.

if Dc has better funding that's worse on their part. saying they have better writing is subjective. Marvel is more successful hands down. Bottom line is money and marvel is handing them their asses. Arguing dc spends more money and makes less than marvel is actually a point in marvel's favor.

Its debatable if Avengers is superior to TDK. Anyway this is lending more credit to those reports of Man Of Steel being a very good film.

Its going to be a long wait.
