WB to announce Superman/Batman & JLA movies

Started by ares834232 pages

Because that source seems very reliable... Japan will probably net it around 45 (that's fairly optimistic IMO) but the rest of the world is slowing down considerably. It made 35 mill OS last week so it's going to need to do far better if it wants to cross 1.5.

No clue what F7 did and I honestly don't give a damn about that shity movie.

^ It doesn't matter just curious. I'm surprised the crapfest IM3 made $1.2Bill, and this with IM and Cap as the stars won't make 1.5B.

I mean hey I was disappointed in it, but it still wasn't bad, and certainly 100 times better than IM3.

Strange, so why does Comicbook.com seem to think it will pass Furious 7 and even Avengers by the time it's released in Japan?:

Japan will probably do around 45. Still not enough to pass Furious 7. Remember, AOU has IM 3 legs, which weren't all that good. It's dropping OS as well. 1.4 is still a MASSIVE number, but not enough for F7.

If they make Aquaman Arthur Curry, don't use any Polynesian stuff, and basically only change his race, I will personally paypal 5 euro/dollars to both of you.

I just did a search and his Aquaman tattoos are from his culture. The jury is still out on whether he will be Atlantean, Polynesian, or a mix of both. You might be keeping your 5 euros. 🙁

TBH, and I've said this before, if he isn't Arthur Curry I'll totally be on board with it. I'll pay and watch with no hesitation at all.

Some interesting tidbits from El Mayimbe...

About Batman V Superman:

- "It is going to be something to be reckoned with"
- There will be a few other surprise guest star characters!
- He believes that it will be something special, because the team took their time to get it perfect.

Other stuff:

- Supposedly, WB/DC has an action packed and exciting panel in this years Comic-Con.
- Supposedly Jared Leto as Joker is knocking it out of the park in Suicide Squad.
- El Mayimbe is confident Wonder Woman will do exceptionally well.

^ That's great news about Leto..

So apparently the synopsis for Batman v Superman is out. And it seems to confirm there will be a super villain as a big part of the story.

I like the costumes...

What was said about Leto?

According to_Deadline, Hall H at_San Diego Comic Con_will be_Warner Bros. and DC Comics focused presence. With_Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice_already done filming and_Suicide Squaddeep into the filming stage it wouldn’t_be surprised if we saw a new trailer for_Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice_and a teaser for_Suicide Squad.

Warner Bros._has a huge opportunity as well to announce some casting news, get_Cyborg’s first look and release dates for Sandman, Batman and Superman solo films and possibly_Justice League Dark. We may even discover why George Miller was on the_Suicide Squad_set, if he is involved in a film.

Of course this is all speculation but considering it is reported that they will be huge this year gives reason to believe at least a few of those reveals will occur.

Last years Comic-Con was mixed but it featured a special trailer that was meant only for the fans who attended and although they were still shootingBatman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, Zack Snyder, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot_and Ben Affleck all made a huge splash appearing on stage as the Holy Trinity, plus we got our first look at Wonder Woman’s costume.

Golgo I'm subscribed to that channel. And those guys all agree with me that DC needs a Kevin Feige of their own. They mention it in this video.

They also said Snyder could be that guy. We'll just have to wait and see if that's true or not. If all the directors that are hired on can work together, which in turn work out for the best.

They were hesitantly questioning if Snyder could be that guy. But they all unanimously agreed that they definitely need a guy like Feige.

The scoop guy didn't agree, but I personally think Geoff Johns would be great.

You really believe that Johns could be WB/DC's Feige???

Whether they need a Fieg or not is up in the air. I'm not too worried, however, i just want the movies to be good that have a director driven movie.

Another thing, supposedly Marvel won't show up to Comic-Con is because WB will have a huge presence.

According to multiple sourcing here in Los Angeles and through my connections at San Diego Comic Con (FYI, I'm an event planner who throws a hot party every year at SDCC), the real reason is that Marvel felt it couldn't compete with the upcoming DC panel from Warner Brothers.

Rumor has it, Ben, Will, and Henry will show up. Plus, a few surprises.

Yeah, because he knows the characters and is a good story guy.

Feige doesn't actually write the scripts or direct the films. But he's in charge of the overall story direction of the MCU.

But those guys made some good points that Johns might not be able to deal with movie politics.

That's what we all want. But to put out film after film after film, and have them ALL be good, in one cohesive Universe, a Feige type guy definitely helps.

Even though Marvel had a Fieg, it didn't stop them from producing crappy movies. It's all opinion, of course, but many of Marvel movies are average at best, with average ratings.

It might be a good thing for each director to do their own thing and not have one overall direction.

BTW, you yourself said you hated Iron Man 2 and 3. Fieg isn't PERFECT.

Unpopular opinion time: DC would be better off without a "Feige".

You don't need an "overall" sorry for the DCverse. Just do what they do in the comics and have each superhero doing their own thing and then get them together for the team films. In fact, I think this would be better as films wouldn't wast time preparing and advertising upcoming films (although I am fine with stingers at the end to drum up excitement). Sadly, I doubt this will happen.
