dc20willsave Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Maybe it's because I like Aquaman. I am that nerd that defends him in fights when a group of people just laugh at him for just being able to control fish. I'll more than admit that I'm biased in that fashion. I'm just saying that the costume and make-up is boring at this point. If I see the movie and he's more than Underwater Drago, then hey, I'll be excited. I'm just getting so tired of seeing muted colors. You have a superhero who runs around in gold and green and one of the main aspects of his backstory is that he was blond and that was considered a curse. Embrace that. Primary colors are not scary. Don't be afraid of the higher shades of chroma. Audiences will not cringe that you decided to include things commonly associated with happiness in your film. Then again, maybe I'm just ignoring the signs that we're destined for Feldgrau Lantern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donomark Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I am getting very sick of the washed out color profile shots. Why can't they just show us what these people will look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 ^That's the thing. Almost all of these promo shots we've seen for BVS have been really colorless. We can't really judge the color or lack thereof in this costume; all we get is the "tribal" look. Which I really like, so I'm more excited than not.

dc20willsave Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 The CW is developing a Superhero Team-Up series with Brandon Routh, Wentworth Miller, Victor Garber, and Caity Lotz starring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 The CW is developing a Superhero Team-Up series with Brandon Routh, Wentworth Miller, Victor Garber, and Caity Lotz starring. That is quite a crew. I have no idea how they would make that work, but I'm game. Also: Victor Garber, but not Robbie Amell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 It kinda reads like they just forgot to put Robbie's name in there (maybe they didn't realize Firestorm is two people?) or this is so early that Robbie's not signed yet.

JackFetch Posted February 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 They are really going to have to fight to get me to watch all these shows. They've almost lost me with Arrow already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-T Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Has anyone seen this one? I got it from Netflix a couple weeks ago. Quite a departure from the comic story, but it was pretty good nonetheless. Not as good as the comic book, though. Aquaman wasn't portrayed as strong as he could have been. Justice League: Throne of Atlantis has a trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-T Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 If I have a complaint about Throne of Atlantis (and the last several DC animated movies, generally) it's the level of violence. I can't let my son watch it with me. Decapitations, dismemberment, all kinds of blood... cool for adults but not kid friendly at all. There's a time when this would have been R-rated.

JackFetch Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm enjoying them more now that they are direct sequels instead of stand alone universes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 They are devoid of personality to me. The stand-alones are way better. You used to be able to lean on DC's animated stuff as being better than both DC and Marvel's live action output. The last couple years they've barely been worth watching, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koete Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Not only are we getting Hawkgirl on the team-up show, but Arthur Darvill as Rip Hunter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 With Rip Hunter, I'm starting to think the spin-off might be some kind of Time Travel show or something. Would explain Sara suddenly being alive again. All I want now is some Blue and Gold and I will be the happiest guy ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I've only seen the pilot, but with The Flash (and its time travel element) I would LOVE~! it if the show brought all DC shows and movies into one multiverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 A time traveling super team involving the speed force makes sense. They have already shown it's possible on the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 And we're almost guaranteed that there will be some kind of universe reset toward the end of Flash season 1, a la Flashpoint. Some have theorized that that's how Superman and Supergirl will suddenly exist in the TV universe; something Flash does in the past slightly reboots everything.

KnightWing Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yeah, it's been hinted at (all but outright said) by producers and actors. The ramifications thereof are to be determined, but certainly it would be an easy way to suddenly have Superman out in public as opposed to now where people are still having trouble believing that super powers exist.

JackFetch Posted April 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 About that spinoff: "I can tell you that it's going to be cool. It's going to be really cool. Our plan for it is that it's like the crossover [episodes between Arrow and The Flash] every week." Source So are they going to bring in new DC characters every week as guest stars? Will it be a time travel version of Sliders with super powers? I would watch the shit out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slothian Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 How can they get their TV shows so right, while their movies suck huge wobbly ones? FFS. Right, I'll bite: which films are you talking about? Let's get to the nub of the problem so that this can be a discussion rather than continued random vitriol. I'm willing to debate this as I've probably watched all of those films for my role on this site. Likely more than once. Please state which DC films you believe "suck big wobbly ones", confirm that you've watched them all the way through and state what you consider their main failings to be (the more specific, the better).
