  • Justice League

    So many trailers coming out of SDCC this weekend.

    Here's another one.

    "Justice League is an upcoming American superhero film based on the DC Comics superhero team of the same name, distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. It is intended to be the fifth installment in the DC Extended Universe. The film is directed by Zack Snyder, with a screenplay by Chris Terrio, and features an ensemble cast that includes Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher, Amy Adams, Jeremy Irons, J. K. Simmons, Amber Heard, and Willem Dafoe. In Justice League, Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg assemble a team to face the catastrophic threat of Steppenwolf and his army of Parademons."

    Rock! Shock! Pop!

      Looks good. I like the casting for the Flash.

        Me too but that trailer is pretty fun. Interesting to watch Warners doing a 180 on this franchise. Hard to believe that BVS making $900 million was taken as a profound disappointment... That's a worry on one level but at least they took the message and revamped what they're doing.

          Looks fun but I highly doubt Snyder's ability to render it watchable.

            He just needs to calm down his directing a bit.....his DAWN OF THE DEAD remake was on tv last night...enjoyed watching it again...His best film so far I think..

              For sure, I remember being surprised that the DAWN remake didn't suck. Since then though...

                I think the internet overreacted with Snyder. I'm not saying the guy is a genius or anything but he's got a damn good eye for visuals and action scenes. His Watchmen adaption was pretty good despite a few pitfalls, like it or hate you have to admit that it has some genius casting, Rorschach and Doctor Manhattan were done great service. And I liked Man of Steel and Batman V Superman.

                  Yeah, Snyder is a good action director and his movies don't look like tv sitcoms (cough almost all the marvel movies cough.)

                    Marvel is just a little too hit and miss. It feels like for every Guardians or Civil War or Iron Man you get a Thor 2 or Incredible Hulk or Ant Man.

                      The Marvel stuff just has a flat over lit look and even worse they farm out the previz of all the action scenes to all their movies to some company (in North Carolina I think) so they, mostly, all feel the same (lifeless and by the numbers.)

                        I'm at a strange point in my life where, despite still reading the comics, I've barely any interest in seeing the superhero films. The Marvel movies feel all the same to me, overlit like Derrick says and bloated and smug; Snyder's self-indulgent style, again attached to overlong pictures, fends me off the current wave of DC-related pictures.

                          I'd say Guardians is the outlier. It does use color and has some artistic flourish.

                            I agree with Snyder's stuff being self-indulgent (which I kinda like) and being overlong (which is a problem related to his inability to tell a story.) I'm hopeful that the other DC films retain some sense of their respective director's voices.

                            Guardians is good (probably my favorite Marvel Studios movie, the best movie with a Marvel character is still the first Blade), but I really hated the planet attack at the end. It just drags on and on.

                              I thought the end planet attack was great. I loved seeing Rocket fly the ship right at Ronan. Blade is pretty damn good but when it comes to R rated Marvel movies I think Deadpool has surpassed it.
