Problem is, /people/ don't know that. And I feel like it's a bad move to pull Darkseid right out of the gate for DC, when they are already trying to play catch up to Marvel, Braniac would've been a better choice I feel. He's still threatening enough to require the whole JL to fight, but he wouldn't be seen as a rip off of Thanos and it allows for power creep.Samtemdo8 said:You do know that Darkseid and the new Gods were created before Thanos right?undeadsuitor said:Im assuming Superman is going to come back just for the final battle, and steppenwolf is going to be the main villain throughout the movieSamtemdo8 said:Now I have a genuine worry because mabye they should have kept the movie split into 2 parts because how are they gonna bring back Superman and introduce Steppenwolf?
not sure where I read it, but wasn't there some synopsis floating around that detailed the plot being like "batman and friends must find three plot coupons...err.."Mother Boxes" that are located in Atlantis, Themyscara, and somewhere else I forgot before Than-...Darkseid roadie and heavy metal band Steppenwolf does"
To the regular movie going public Darkseid is going to look like they ripped off Thanos. Definitely should've waited for Darksied because comparisons are going to come and unless he's as good as or better than Ironsides Darkseid from the DCAU, it's going to fall flat. Which is staunch possibility given his incredibly lackluster portrayal in animated media since the DCAU.
I dunno, it could be 50/50 at this point. Given the embarrassment that was the Green Lantern movie, they may go with Stewart to distance themselves from it. I'm not sure of the canon of the GL movie within the DCCU at this point, but if it is canon Ryan Reynolds isn't likely to come back for him if he's playing Deadpool from here on out, so that already creates a recasting issue which might not be viewed as a good decision.AccursedTheory said:It's nice they aren't pretending Superman is dead. That would have been eye rolling. Though... is it me, or are the photo components of Superman/Batman reused from the Dawn of Justice image pack? Or are the poses so generic I can't tell?
Well, I guess we agree on one thing. The movies, regardless of what direction they go in, could really use some John Stewart. Though I just know that when JL2 pops along they'll chicken out and go with Hal.Samtemdo8 said:Yes this green:
