The DC Movie & TV Thread

[Hawkingbird]

I found the current season of Young Justice underwhelming. The Mars arc was boring, Artemis arc is good and the recent magic one was uneven. The parts that focused on the lore was the best thing about it. Beast Boy depression and the conflict with Child was uninteresting.

There's rumor going around that the upcoming Flash movie will erase all the DC movies Snyder have done. Meaning: Cavill and Affleck's role in the DCEU will also be erased. 

 

Which also means...

Spoiler

Supergirl, Batgirl, Keaton's Batman, and Shazam will form a new Justice League, going forward.

If this turn out to be true, then 😂.

awesome 

[HD-Man]

So even tho Cavill is still willing to play Superman, and you could recast Affleck, just erase that to form a new team with 2 ppl nobody wants to see 

 

Makes sense 👍

[iStu X]

Never forget how big of a piece of shit Bob Kane was

Like Chris mentioned in the video there’s a lot of documentaries that talk extremely in-depth about how Kane fucked over everyone he worked with. Including DC. The shit is rage inducing. 
 

The fact Finger has only gotten credit within the last 7 years or so out of Batman’s storied history is maddening. Especially given the fact Finger basically died with next-to-nothing to his name

I'm trying to think of anyone else but I can't, at least in comics, think anyone that is as big a fraud as Bob Kane. As Chris mentioned in the video, people criticize Stan Lee but at least the artist and writer got the by line with Lee. He didn't have it written into his contract that only he could get billing. I'm laughing that Kane got sued for trying to pull the same shenanigans in the art world with "his" clown paintings. What a piece of shit man. At least he got publicly bitch slapped, stood there, and did nothing.

I think Cavill is a fantastic superman, he just needs better movies.  I even really liked the look of Batfleck, and IMO he had the same issue.

Crap, I just read it earlier. Someone here posted that Cavill was the Andrew Garfield of DC and they are right. 

[Darc_Requiem]

@iStu XI don't watch Hulu, it's in my Disney+ bundle but I keep forgetting I have it it, but I'm going to have to check out that documentary on Bill Finger.

 

Edit: Watched it. Batman & Bill is really good. I'm still salty though. Bob Kane is an irredeemable piece of shit.

I'm definitely enjoying the Affirmative Action Era of CW 😂

[HD-Man]

Peacemaker starts off on the bullshit, loving the dialogue. It's like Doom Patrol with better action scenes 😂

 

EDIT: And wtf at the show's intro song sequence 😂

I hope this is Superman & Lois or Black Lighting caliber. They can't have my boy Diggle in a spiritual successor to The Talk. "Hi I'm Barry Allen and I'm the chattiest man alive..."

The stone face look of Cena during it makes it funnier.

[HD-Man]

Robert Patrick playing that role in Peacemaker a little TOO well, it's making me think

 

J/k dude been a great actor. He's gonna be a great villain in this one, I can kinda see where they're going with this storyline 😂

[Hawkingbird]

Peacemaker is hilarious. James Gunn is 3 for 3 when it comes to superheroes.

 

If I was Judo Master I would never stop talking shit. Being that short and underestimated while kicking all the ass. I will remind niggas every chance I get.

Commissioner Gordon is black so unless he got Me, Myself, and Irene'd, Babs would have to be black.

Oh. I wasn’t aware. I don’t watch any of the DC live action shows outside of Doom Patrol. 

[DangerousJ]

I thought JK Simmons was going to be Gordon in Batgirl and Jeffrey Wright would portray him in "The Batman" film.   

[DangerousJ]

https://www.ign.com/articles/batgirl-cast-movie-leslie-grace-michael-keaton-jk-simmons-brendan-fraser-hbo-max

 

So JK is Gordon and Brendan Fraser is Firefly with Keaton as well. 

 

The actress is Dominican IIRC.

@HawkingbirdHe would have been better saying nothing but if he had to say something giving a fake apology would have been better than that.

i was lolling when he said cyborg was a bad actor...when universally everyone is mad he got cut out because he was easily one of the best parts of the movie.

[iStu X]

Yeah…Ray Fisher as Cyborg was one of the few bright spots in Justice League.

Yeah I can see that although Whedon is worse. Everyone going back Buffy was exposing him. He has no one standing up for him. I mean that shit with Michelle Trachtenberg says it all. He wasn't allowed to be alone with her. That's some Weinstein/R.Kelly shit right there.

[HD-Man]

Oh, Tony tone deaf and sensitive on occasion, Whedon just a creep. Definitely wasn't comparing them in that way. 

 

I heard he gave one of the actors on the set of Angel a hard time cuz she wouldn't have sex with him. Dude a real piece of shit which saddens me cuz I like his work (well, most of it except JL)

It may have been Michelle. She didn't go into detail of what he did, but just said that he wasn't allowed to be alone with her on set.

Cavill is holding the Superman costume hostage until WB agrees to bringing him back as Superman. 😂😂😂 GOAT status

Never thought I'd say this but they should let the writers of the Superman CW show write Cavil's movies. Most ppl agree he isn't the problem, it's the script and directing 

[RSG3]

Yea not only not the problem but hes arguably the best part. His Superman is full heart. 

 

The writing fails him regularly. This seems to be an issue for him in general, Witcher S2 sounds like it's got some goofy shit in it to.

Witcher is goofy canon wise. Im absolutely dumb to the  canon so i enjoy it alot. Like its a campy show with a budget..i dont think people were expexting w.o.w with the show. All the complaints ove seen have been from witcher fans who know the real canon. Everyone else i knoe whos into this type of stuff jas enjoyed it

I'm liking it over all but some of its annoying the piss out of me, how it doesn't line up with actual or expanded canon. It's very frustrating.

Henry Cavill and Freya Allan are carrying the show. Yennefer annoys me. If you are going to cast against type, the actress needs to nail the role. IMO she hasn't.

So far, I'm still enjoying Superman & Lois. I'm waiting for the CW to happen though.

Yeah talking season 2. I'm waiting for CW to happen. I don't want it too, I'm hoping the HBO Max funds is like a ward that keeps it away. So far it is.

Looks like they don't hate all redheads. Just saw the latest episode of Batwoman. The real Poison Ivy finally showed up. Looks like Batwoman is turning around. Also, in episode 9 and in episode 10 of Legends, the real Eobard Thawne (Matt Letscher) will be showing up!

Legends is still going???

[HD-Man]

I may tune in for Matt Letscher, he is my favorite Thawne (I know that's an unpopular opinion to have). The episode where he was trying to evade Black Flash was a personal favorite of mine in Legends

[iStu X]

Why though.
