“consumers have a right to view a film bereft of content they find objectionable”

Man of Steel made sense at the time though, and there is a fair bit of good stuff in there, it’s just that Snyder runs roughshod over it with his dumb and superficial “wouldn’t it be badass if...” tendencies.

I’m not saying they should’ve let Snyder finish his plans though. Justice League would’ve been his last contribution, his sequels would still have been off the table.

Gunn has already pointed to All-Star Superman as the main reference point, so yeah, I’m expecting a similar structure of a series of shorter vignettes showing Superman doing Superman things, whilst he also wrestles with something bigger (which may or may not be a dose of solar radiation that’s slowly killing him).

I don’t know if it’s official, but I believe it came from The Hollywood Reporter, who are generally not prone to wild and completely unsourced speculation.

Of course he is, I’d totally forgotten that.

isn’t this how DCEU supposedly stumbled in the first place? To much too fast

Personally, I doubt it. Remember, the Authority’s due to be in it too, and if there’s a team present for Superman to find distasteful, it’s surely going to be them.

The next question to expect: Isn’t this movie going to be massively overstuffed with all these other superheroes running around?

She would have been in that room with all the other heads of the intelligence community

Even in it’s normal state, it only blends in if it lands in Britain between ~1930 and ~1970. At any other place or time, hot pink is no more out of the ordinary.

They don’t do that. They pay residuals based on the subscriber count of the service, not how many people actually watch the show in question.

Infinity War, to my mind, is the high water mark for giving a “Part 1 of 2” a proper ending. Dead Reckoning is second.

Cardboard boxes isn’t just a “whatever we had at our disposal” thing though. They’re widely used whatever the budget, because as long as they’re stacked correctly, they have the right levels of strength and give for a safe landing.

It’s not a one way route. If Pattinson started in the future, then at some point he travelled back to before his introduction into the film. Then he travelled forward until he met up with The Protagonist for the events of the film.

Does bathing the actors in purple not make it impossible to light them to match the conditions of the final shot? It’s certainly an issue in the example footage — as clean as the background replacement might be, the actors never look like they’re present in the scenery. But maybe that’s a limitation of the…

Having never read the books, I can offer no opinion on the quality of the adaptation — except to acknowledge that, given how long the series is, it was always going to have to make big changes in order to have any chance at all of reaching a conclusion. Taking 30+ years to put out 15+ seasons is obviously not a…

Agreed. The biggest giveaway is that they reply to everyone. They’re not engaging with the conversation in an honest way, they’re just enjoying it as a war of attrition — as long as they get the last word, they “win”.

This is spot on. I had a brief back and forth with them over the “is this woman racist for singing whilst wearing green facepaint?” stuff last week, and it was like interviewing a politician with a talking point to stick to, who just keeps making it regardless of what their actually asked about. They just did not…

That’s quite the message you want to send: Don’t mess with Star Trek fans, or... we’ll pay you.
