Nice. Simmons is a terrific actor.

No doubt.

DC racking up the talent. Looking damn good.

so much for the Gordon death rumors...

We'll see. The tracking went up a few days ago, but I could see JL being their big gun as well. Especially with Flash, GL, Aquaman, etc...

Just because the Avengers AOU went down from TA, doesn't mean JL will. Harry Potter for example had some nice boosts.

But do the GA really know who Flash and Aquaman are? GL is confirmed not to be in JL part 1.

It took a long time for a Harry Potter sequel to outgross the first one. LOTR would be a better example.

You would be surprised at the people who know who those two are. A lot of people know who the Flash is from the T.V. show for sure and they don't even read comics. There is probably 7 people I work with who watch the show but have never read a comic of any kind.

And another example a few months back I was talking to a another co worker and he wouldn't even qualify as a casual fan but he said growing up his favorite character on the Superfriends cartoon was Aquaman.

I bet you more people know who Flash is because of The Big Bang Theory than because of the CW show TBH.

Another screening. Take it with a grain of salt, of course. Another like.

Rate it out of 10?

What did you think of Man of Steel?

Worth seeing?

1. 8.5/10

2.Never cared for it beyond my first viewing.Great first act and then it's kind of a downward spiral but not the awful movie some are making it out to be.Good enough to entertain you for one time.This one is a great improvment.It's like an entirely new creative team was hired.

3.Absolutely

The guy also said Eisenberg has a clever take on Luthor. And Gal steals many of the scenes in the movie.

I can't rate Gadot because her role is really small.I would like to see more.For what is worth,she has great screen pressense and she steals every scene she is in.Makes you look forward to her solo outing.

Definetly the first option.Definetly.

Looks like all his posts got deleted.

Not sure if that adds credibility, or takes it away.

What was interesting/different about what he said, is that Cavill/Supes was the MVP by his count.

WB could have took it down.

Was kinda worried that WB wasn't being ambitious enough with its casting before. Getting Simmons though is a hell of a coup, and I'm glad to see them casting a wider net.

Flash only gets around 3.5 million viewers (first screening in the U.S that is).

But I guess between the old live action series, the new one, the old Super Friends and the JLU cartoons he may have a fairly recognisable name/image.

Also his crossover with Supergirl will help, given SG gets double the viewership The Flash does.

Ha! Never thought about that, but it's true!

^ And also what ares834 pointed out about the Big Bang Theory.

^ Yeah just edited my post

i like JK Simmons, though, so i guess this is cool.

He is ok but Schillinger is nothing to rave about.
