Let's talk about comics

What are some stories you would like to see adapted whether in live-action or animated or even a DC Universe original?

Back in this place of wishing the next damn movie would come out so we have something else to talk about.

But before Aquaman is out we still need blogs to report that an anonymous source told them it's a mess and complain about Mera's arm pits. And then stories about it tracking for a lower OW than the other DCEU movies, ignoring the context of a holiday release.

Superman Secret Identity as one of the Elseworlds movies. Realistically it wouldn't need a huge budget. There's very little action in the story.

I've been saying it forever: CGI Gregory Peck as Superman.

No joke, Gene Kelly was basically the spitting image of golden age Superman, I think would have been a great choice for the character.

Nah the thing with Mera is apparently her wig. Cause of course everyone is a costuming expert now.

The anonymous Reddit tips though? Those are always fun.

So which actor is quitting DCU this week? I heard Chris Evans is no longer playing Green Arrow.

A Elseworlds Red Son live-action movie always comes to mind.

This would've been the perfect movie for Snyder's asthetics and basically apply all of his crazy ideas that ended up in BvS without risking backlash:

- He could still apply his bleak/oppressive tone and it would actually make sense considering the source material.

- Mute all the colors he wanted/apply this red or grey filter.

- He could still fullfill his Batman fighting Superman fantasy, also insert Wonder Woman there

- Batman/Bruce Wayne would still be a broken resentful guy in this story, just like in BVS

- Snyder could have Superman experience these existencial problems later in the story. Bonus points: he wouldn't even need to waste time with "Clark Kent" because it doesn't exist in this. He's always broody Superman.

- Have his share of cameos but inserted organically within the story without any e-mails (Hal Jordan, Bizarro)

- Still have Political drama involving Superman and his actions (USSR vs US, Stalin, etc)

- Slow-mo the shit out of Superman as he marches down red square with stalin's troops. Slow mo flags everywhere. Bombastic military score is playing (this would probably be Snyder's opening montage)

- Amy Adams married to Jesse Eisenberg, I guess.

- John Hamm as Soviet Superman

I would dream about a Kingdom Come movie, maybe it would need to be a two-parter.
And i always thought that Eric Dane with his "The Last Ship" hair and no beard was the perfect old-Superman

Seems the US red carpet premier for Aquaman is December 12, 2018, couple days after the China public release on Dec 7th. Couple other countries are after the 12th. And the US release is still the 21st.

Ray Fisher says Snyder shot enough footage for nearly 2 movies

But what I will say is Zack had very specific plans for Cyborg, and for his trajectory. And Zack probably shot enough footage in the first film to make like two movies out of. He definitely had a whole, I believe, a trilogy in mind, with respect to Justice League. And if his vision had sort of come to fruition, Cyborg would have probably been one of, if not the most powerful, metahuman in the entire canon, in the film universe.

I hope this movie is good. Because if it's not, it's only going to make these promo shots even more ridiculous

In my head, I'm envisioning Aquaman having a slight crossover appeal with the Jurassic World audience, what with all those shots of dudes riding giant sharks and stuff. I mean, that just looks so cool.

You gotta give it to James Wan. They let him make an Aquaman movie and by God, he's making a fucking Aquaman movie.

He got Willam Defoe riding armored sharks outchere. The absolute madman.

tbh I don't know what's that wild about riding sharks when the highest grossing movie of all time had blue cat people riding dragon-birds-creatures. And one of the most popular TV shows is about riding dragons.

Uh...why did you post that? You are signal boosting weirdos that want the attention. Move on mana. The less views she has the better.

Don't know how to beat around the bush here: No one really cares about the obsession with people obsessed with the Snyder Cut, much less this hypothetical Snyder Cut itself. Been nearly a year. It's such boring drama people can't move on from. And not even the fun kind like joking about Affleck still being Batman.

Seriously that ship has sailed and it wasn't even brought up for the longest time before that video.

Every time I see a new post here I am hoping for news.

Instead I get two things unrelated to the DCEU, Netflix's The Witcher series and Henry Cavill.

Anyone have a gif if that panning shot from the latest Aquaman trailer.

From Mera parkouring to Manta blowing up the bell.

Cool AF.
