True, but most won't know Thanos is the copy.This is why DC needs to work hard to make Darkseid separate.
And for f*cks sake get Michael Ironside to voice him.
Hell yeah. Michael Ironside's voice is what made Darkseid so great in the Superman animated series & JLA animated series. It's doubtful they will ever find anyone with a better voice to fit that role.
Originally posted by eThneoLgrRnaeUntrue. Starlin even confirms it. Your opinion does not matter. Culture is shaped now by Thanos. The general audience does not know anything about the throwaway line referencing the guy in JL.
Everyone knows Thanos is just a rip-off of the greatly superior character Darkseid. 👆
Thanos sits atop the box office throne.
Thanos first appearance: February 1973 The Invincible Iron Man #55
Darkseid first appearance as a cameo: November 1970 Supermans Pal Jimmy Olsen #134
First full appearance: February 1971 Forever People #1
I really couldnt care less but anyone can wiki dat shit and confirm Darkseid came first. Like at least 2 years earlier.
Originally posted by Darth ThorI never said he did not I said he was not based off Darkseid from Starlin. Thanos is culturally relevant globally. Biggest villain of all time in the biggest film of all time. Darkseid will always be tiny to Thanos. It is over. Just as the go bots are trash compared to the transformers.

Btw, listening to the producers' voice-over commentary on that episode revealed that Dan Turpin (the character killed by DS at the end there) was based on Jack Kirby, the creator of DS and the other New Gods (like Orion, Highfather, Steppenwolf, Kalibak, etc...) though it's likely you already knew that I guess.
Originally posted by BruceSkywalkerI doubt he will be the main villain of the film. If the budget is cheap like Shazam he might look dumb and be as generic as it gets. They need to go AM route as I said. Most like d. Thor hate AM and praise Shazam for its genetic and cheapness you cannot get any more forgettable.
Duvernay has a tough fight ahead of her, but depending on how Darkseid is written as well as portrayed, hopefully he'll have good feats

Rewatched AM and cant believe how bad the dialogue and acting was.
Shazam was great fun. Acting was good (yes the kids acted much better than Aquamamoa). Dialogue was good. And damn that film had heart.
Originally posted by Darth ThorIt was hands down better than that made for tv trash that was Shazam. Tv actors, horrendous cgi, generic villain, no heart just forgettable shit. The visuals in Am were great but you are the same guy who praised Wan now to trash him. You change your mind based off your feelings in that moment day to day. You begged him to do Star Wars now say the acting he accepted for Am is terrible. Make up your mind. Shazam is trash. My opinion matched the general audiences pre films. I am the best.

Originally posted by Darth ThorYou say that with a straight face while praising Shazam. That movie was corny and made for kids. Much more childish than AM.
Nah couldnt believe how cheesy AM was on a rewatch.No point just throwing money on bad dialogue. Well it made money, so was worth it for them. And that Billion was desperately needed for the DCEUs survival. But quality wise 👇
I have a gauge for what will work and what will not. When Star Wars 9 delivers I will rub it in once again since you doubted Abrams and the studio. Just wait. You got all riled up with the haters acting like Star Wars was dead when it was the vast minority screaming the loudest on the Internet. Just listen to me from now on.
