But, really, all you need to say is Superman - Coates - Abrams and it’s hard to not get excited.

“I don't know what I'm doing."

What’s he trying to say with that aspect ratio? “This should be seen in an IMAX” or “this should be seen on an old TV”?

Wow, this looks bad. They even threw in some memes.

What’s with the 4:3 aspect ratio ? Are they trying to start a new trend ? What am I supposed to watch it on ? Should I dig up my old CRT from the cellar and watch it in all its 576p glory ? I don’t get it...
Oh wait, did they make a deal with Apple Watch ?

Ok look, it’s going to be a heavy-handed trainwreck, BUT...that was a pretty good trailer. I hated the original version. It was one of the lamest, most cookie cutter comic movies filmed, and that’s saying something. It could actually use an injection of “epic”, it can only help. Unfortunately, Snyder is trash, so

I don’t think he realizes that prior to “Justice League,” roughly 0.5% of the population knew who Cyborg was. 

That’s what it comes down to. The entire park can, and should, be rethemed to a different time period. I think they know they blew it in the end with the sequels.

You’re missing one important fact: Disney has regularly refreshed their rides and lands, often drastically, since the start. Star Tours is a perfect example - It evolved from Original to Prequel to Sequel Trilogy content, and they were not subtle refits.

I don’t see Disney not incorporating elements from The Mandalorian. This is the (Disney) way.

The remedial action is to edit two additional hours of Ray Fisher’s Cyborg into the long-awaited Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

I have a feeling that there are going to be a whole bunch of big sequels green lit specifically because they have no real box office numbers on how well the first one did.

Yeah I had this discussion with a friend of mine who we both go to see the big tentpole movies at theaters. As much as it sounds nice that WB is going to release these movies on HBO Max and in the theaters, my friend would rather see a movie like Dune or WW84 on the big screen. I feel the same way but am also ok with

People will not go to theaters in the numbers they have historically if they do not feel that they can be safe gathering in large numbers. Maybe a vaccine will change this, but that’s still half a year a way, at least, for most people in the US.

Wow, Denis Villeneuve expresses the exact same stance as Chris Nolan, yet io9's article remains completely snark-free and respectful with respect to Villeneuve.

I get it, but damn, these Auteurs need to chill, and realize that when they have studios hand over hundreds of millions of dollars to them to make a film, that film becomes a business. This is business trying to salvage itself however possible. 

Dude is REALLY overestimating how much casual audiences are anticipating Dune. I fully expect this to have the same impact Blade Runner 2049 did.

I’m just happy we’re finally getting a show about Superman. Not Superman’s grandfather. Not Superman “before he was Superman”. Not Superman’s cousin’s friends uncle. And not Metropolis without Superman.

Honestly, Warner probably made the right decision here. Whether or not theaters would have continued to be viable in a non-COVID world, the fact is, right here and right now, they are not. No movie is going to play to packed houses, simply because theaters can’t pack houses safely. Fuck, they’re not even open in many

Seriously - don’t go looking on Twitter for what the Snyder Superfans are saying about him and the Snyder Cut. It’s genuinely like a different world. One where no-one progressed beyond a 13 year old boy’s idea of what’s “awesome”.
