So since Justice League is going to have a strong Jack Kirby influence that means his family will get some of the money made by the movie right?...
 
They tried a lighter scene in BVS: "Is she with you? No, i thought she was with you"

At that point the audience cringed and i went back to counting how many milk duds i had left in the box.

That being said, i would love to watch a super dark version of the Injustice story line - i think Leto would kill it in that.

It is one little quib, while Cap Winter Grunge, Civil Dispute, and all the Avengers, Thor, Iron Man are over saturated with it. How did audiences react when the Mandarin turned out not to be the Mandarin but some homeless drunk hippy?

They still shelled out to the tune of $409 Mil 1.2 Billion worldwide.

The Marvel Formula works .

A movie with the DC trinity to include a proven Box Office entity in Batman couldn't even crack 350 Million domestic nor 900 mil worldwide .

I dont know the actual budgets but DC only really has BVS and Man of Steel. I dont think Chris Nolan's trilogy is being counted. Marvel biggest success is Cap Civil Dispute. I dont know the take from the other shitty movies they made, but they are all family friendly adventure movies.

It is like comparing the first two Mummy Brendan Fraser movies to the Gril with the Dragon tattoo movie. Or the Star Wars prequels to the Alien and or Blade Runner.

The Avengers made 624 Million Domestic . 1.5 billion worldwide .

Making it Number 5 All time Domestic and World wide.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has grossed over 3.9 billion domestic and 10 Billion worldwide. Star Wars is off by more than 1 billion in both categories.

Nolans movies don't count to the DCEU but they were distributed by WB and was pointing out that Batman individually should nave been enough to push BvS over 1 billion. He didn't.

C'mon now, you should know that's not a fair comparison. Not only does MCU have double the number of films but the worldwide market has exploded in the last decade which SW didn't benefit from except for EP7. Not to mention that the domestic totals ignore the 30+ year gap between the highest grossing films in the respective series. If you correct for the major factors (ticket inflation, population, moviegoing popularity) then A New Hope pulled the modern equivalent of $1.4bil domestic. If you make those corrections for all films in both series then SW absolutely crushes the MCU in domestic. It kicks ass in total ($5.34bil vs $4.12bil) and especially in per-film average ($762.6mil vs $317.2mil).

That said, his original comparison of SW vs Alien/GwtDT/Blade Runner is silly. Those are all actually serious movies, BvS only pretends to be.

Don't mean to diminish Star Wars but for my point was for emphasizing how far ahead the MCU is to the DCEU. Aaaand I am not a Star Wars fan boy , I've seen the movies they just don't resonate with me. I don't hold adjusting movies for inflation in high regard when you consider that per Era the number of movie choices available varied , which is why adjusted for inflation Gone with the Windows being the highest grossing film of all time makes me roll my eyes when I read it.

While I agree that GwtW isn't really a fair comparison due to the differences in competition and length of release, but 1977 isn't 1939. And I'm not just doing a straight ticket price adjustment when I gave those numbers. I also correct for how popular going to the movies is as well by looking at total ticket sales for the year (which itself has a built-in population correction).
 
Horrible news, I enjoyed BvS and MoS and now they are going to make their newer movies all like Marvel films. Why can't we have two universes that feel different from each other? We are getting half a dozen or more superhero films a year and by DC changing up the tone it's going to make this genre get old really really fast.

First Look at Batman's Tactical Suit in JUSTICE LEAGUE


Weeks ago we got our first look at the "Tactical Batsuit" which will debut in 2017's Justice League movie and didn't even know it.

In the background of a photo Zack Snyder shared in the costume designing room of Warner Brothers' London studio stands a black mold of a costume. Many folks jumped to the conclusion of the costume belonging to Nightwing, which was probably out of hope more than anything, but after being on the set, Comicbook.com reports that it is actually an early model of the Tactical Batsuit.

By the time the suit comes to life on the set of Justice League, being worn by Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne, it will receive some gray coloring, belt straps around the core areas, leg and arm braces, goggles which will reflect light to give the white-eyed Batman effect, and (most importantly) and Batman symbol across the chest.

Behind the suit in the same picture is a look at Willem Dafoe's Vulko costume, as well.

BATMAN V SUPERMAN Backlash Forced Zack Snyder to Change JUSTICE LEAGUE's Tone


Zack-Snyder-Henry-Cavill-Batman-v-Superman-Set-Dragonlord.jpg


Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice certainly has its fair share of fans, but there are a lot of people who really didn't like what Zack Snyder did with that movie (particularly critics). While the filmmaker weighed in on the reviews when the movie's press tour reached the UK, reporters inevitably pushed him for more on that backlash and the impact it may have had on how Justice League has developed.

"When Batman v Superman came out, I was like, ‘Wow, okay, oof,’" the filmmaker admitted in an interview with Vulture. "It did catch me off guard. I have had to, in my mind, make an adjustment. I do think that the tone of Justice League has changed because of what the fans have said." It seems to have worked too, because all we keep hearing in these set visits is how much fun the movie looks!

"You really had to dig down on the darker parts of them to make them fight each other," he said. "I really do believe that with this movie, with Justice League, they’ve been freed of the responsibility to be in a place where they would fight each other. That’s liberating for us in making the movie, because now we have a single enemy with a single objective, and it’s really about uniting the team. That, to me, is a fun activity."

I thought the movie was 'OK'. I liked MoS kinda. I'm just baffled that WB studios is letting Snyder make a JL film after his first two DC outings were critically panned. It makes zero sense to me at all. How will this be any different? Fool me once saying falls into place here.

"Oof" is right. I don't think he really gets why BvS wasn't as well liked as he expected. It's not just about the tone, although I think that's a part of it. It's that the main characters did things that didn't make logical sense or have any supporting reasons. Batman wants to kill Superman because... is explained in one throwaway line about a 1% chance of something maybe happening. I kinda want to see the Ultimate Edition just to see if what was cut was more of the character motivation.

I didn't mind the grim and gritty tone. it's a nice counterpart to the MCU tone. But it needs to be done well. If you're going to have a "serious" superhero movie it really needs to have solid characters, motivations and logic (at least internally consistent logic, since we are talking about superheros here). Now I'm worried that JL is just going to be a copy of the MCU movies, which will be disappointing.

All I keep hearing are the shills and the critics canning this movie. Most viewers I have talked to about in person like this movie. Most of the people who voted in the poll on sherdog think positively of it. Now I dont follow twitter, or instagram or facebook, but those people are like those whinos complaining on Yelp about every little this at that at that restaurant. They just want attention.

Nicolas Winding Refn Wants to Direct a BATGIRL Movie


Nicolas-Winding-Refn-Batgirl-Dragonlord.jpg


Rumored for a number of recent high-profile projects, Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, Only God Forgives, Valhalla Rising) has never actually jumped into the fray of big-franchise filmmaking yet -- but he might consider it for the DC Extended Universe.

The Danish filmmaker told Business Insider that he would have loved to have made Wonder Woman, but that Batgirl is another cool opportunity.

"God, I would love to make one, it would probably be great fun," Refn said. "I just don't know when it's going to happen. I very much enjoy my freedom creatively, but I also would love to make one of those big Hollywood films that costs a lot of money and has a lot of people running around with cell phones and all that insanity."

"What ones are left?" Refn added. "You know the one I want to do? I want to make Batgirl. Let's get Warner working on it."

New Concept Art of the Team's Costumes in JUSTICE LEAGUE


In addition to some new Suicide Squad behind-the-scenes footage, which has found its way online only as screenshots, it seems there’s some new concept art for the highly-anticipated Justice League movie featured in the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition.

It’s pretty clear that The Trinity’s designs are from Dawn of Justice, but this is probably our best look at suit designs for the Flash and Cyborg. However, considering all of what we learned from the Justice League set reports last week, and the fact that this is conceptual, we could see something different when Warner Bros. finally drops an official image.

New Official Justice League Concept Art Sees The Superhero Team Unite In Great Detail
 
Hey @Dragonlordxxxxx have you done any fantasy casting for Fourth World characters? I know there will never be a Fourth World movie, but I'd be curious who'd you cast for major characters such as Orion, Darkseid, Scott Free, Big Barda, Metron, Highfather, Granny Goodness, hell ever Superman and Jimmy Olsen.
