This is exciting news. I was really hoping they'd do a Court of Owls movie, and that seems like the perfect story for Affleck to take on... but the more I thought about it, the more I realize there's no way they go with a story without one of the established villains.

He could lay a deuce, put on the batsuit on it, and call it batdookie and it would be a step up.

I said it on the other thread, but if the Lego Batman movie was just Batman returning to the Batcave after a night of saving Gotham (yet again) and then it was just him f-ing around his mansion for 90 minutes........I'd see that movie 10 times.

First JK Simmons and now Willem Dafoe.
Following the pattern, next will be Kirsten Dunst as a villain?

Been watching the Bruce Timm Justice League series for the first time in years and years. There's not a single one of these multi-parters that wouldn't have been a better basis for a Justice League flick than what they're set to roll out.

Both Justice League and Justice League Unlimited were fantastic shows. I watch them from time to time. The DC Animated Universe is fantastic.
I would kill for a Justice League Gods and Monsters live action movies.
quote:Any of the DCAU series would have been a better basis than what we've been given. Though unlike the MCU (Fiege) and the DCAU (Timm), there is no one captaining this apparent misadventure they're calling the DCEU that so far includes MoS and BvS.

Maybe someone better versed in the comics can explain to me. I still don't understand at what point cyborg became such a major part of the justice league and some sort of fan favorite in every iteration. It makes no sense to me. He's very Meh and never showed up in the Timmverse but now he's in every animated movie and gets his own solo movie? Is it a new 52 thing? Are fans on board with it and like him or is he just accepted cause they're being forced to.

I think the current generation that were raised on Teen Titans are what drives it. He's also another black character, which is a bonus, and it makes sense to have a tech hero in this day and age.
I know when the DCAU rebooted with Flashpoint Paradox, the first true Justice League Movie was War. He played a major role.

That story for War, including Cyborg's part in it, came long after he became mainstream.
And the current DCAU isn't a continuity. They are all just one offs.

A few are continuous with each other.
Never read much of the GL comics. I know there's yellow light stuff, but are there a bunch of colors of rings/lanterns?
quote:Thanks Alias, that's what I was looking for. I forgot about the Teen Titans aspect. The tech and diversity part I figured a little but it kept confusing me why every one off animated movie had him as a heavy hitter. I guess as with most things, I just kinda have to go with it and not be so devoted to the Timmverse.quote:

I'd be cool with this.

This has been a long rumored Spawn project as well, where Spawn is basically unseen through the movie a la Jaws.
quote:The scene in BvS where we first saw Batman (heavily borrowed from the comic if I recall) was one of the best in the film, and something like that.
I'd be cool with this.
The Flash director has left the project, and now the rumor is that the Aquaman director could be leaving too
That ain't good
DC saying no mas?
I really hope so.
Meanwhile at Marvel Studios...

Is the DC Cinematic Universe dying?
