I can't really see HBO Max not wanting to do something with his world. Will be interesting to see how it has fared over the weekend come Monday.
The Knightmare stuff is the most interesting thing about the Snyderverse to be honest. I'd rather a 4 hour movie set in that.
I'm pretty sure Darkseid learned his lesson the last time he rushed into battle without a good game plan. I'd imagine he knows Supes is no slouch.
True, but that said, he'll probably lose to Wonder Woman + Aquaman too. Remember, Zeus + Ares were the ones to defeat him. Ares got defeated by Wonder Woman. Aquaman will probably be close to Wonder Woman's physical prowess.
My point is, if he cannot beat them at that point in time with the help of Steppenwolf how can he beat them when more of the Justice League joins up? If they had J'onn J'onzz a Green Lantern and Atom (who were all shown in the movie already).... He's toast.
Watched the Knightmare scene again before I watch it all a second time - loved everything about it, the cinematography, camera focus, the truce, Leto's stare down with Batman, their back-and-forth jibing at each other. I really, really want a film exploring Batman's more honourable days with Robin and his death at the hands of Leto.
The problem with a Batman who is willing to kill mere henchmen is it becomes hard to make sense of why he doesn't kill his primary antagonists, especially one that murdered Robin. So when I saw a screengrab with a certain subtitle
Batman saying something like ''make no mistake, I will ***king kill you''
Firstly was that real? I haven't seen this yet. And secondly, if it was, my response is - uhhhh, well yeah, you ****ing should. Do it now!

I think we need to keep in mind that this is opening weekend in a pandemic where people have been starved for new content. I doubt if anyone (WB, HBO Max, etc.) are going to have a knee-jerk reaction to good initial numbers, as (a) most early viewers were fans already and (b) any subsequent project would (hopefully) be released under entirely different circumstances. Plus it's really down to DC/WB approving it (not likely at this point in time) and most of the participants probably have other projects in the pipeline now. Any future get together could be quite a few years off.
I agree but it?s possible that WB already considered this a marketing win last year with all the attention it received and that contracts were updated last year and all the pieces are already in place for announcements to be made now.
The reason I say that is because truth be told like it or not his DCEU vision already currently exists with Aquaman, WW and the Flash movie already having Affleck back.
It?s not that far of a stretch to keep his vision alive with the biggest hurdle really being Ray Fisher battle with WB.
I just don?t see a scenario where WB considers this release a failure unless they only got rainpaulo to subscribe lol
The Batman movie and Phoenix Joker can still be successful in its own franchise path.
Screw it why not have 2 successful franchises instead of just one.
I got to have my 6 hour JL2 movie dammit!
I need to see her sweater sniffing arc play out...
Have you ever seen anyone look so determined to sniff clothing just look at her ready to go...

Yes, I suppose that's possible, but would it stay on HBO Max or go back to cinemas? I could see Zack's inability to tell a story in under 4 hours becoming an issue again if it's the latter lol...
As for Cyborg, at this point in his character arc he only shows half his face so (social media **** storms aside) not a difficult role to recast. I don't think Terrance Howard is terribly busy right now.
Wow! Can you imagine the look if he left his boxers behind?
Genuinely curious... why are so many of y?all saying ?comic fans will love this? when most of the characters... and I mean everyone but Superman, aren?t even close to representing their comic counterparts. Aquamomoa, Gollumborg, Punisher Batman, Autistic Flash, Wonder Gadot, Lame Lois, ?Lex Luthor,? nothing like the comics. Not even close to the comics.
I truly don?t understand the love for any of these.
Aquamomoa - Literally Jason Momoa and Khal Drogo. Acts nothing like Aquaman. Dude is a drunk, tatted up, brown hair...
Punisher Batman - Not even Batman in this movie. Shoots and kills.
Gollumborg - Completely negative, squeaks when he moves, walks like Gollum
Autistic Flash - Doesn?t look like Barry, isn?t smart like Barry, he is literally the Jar Jar Binks of the Snyderverse. You have to admit it, he really is.
Lame Lois - Red head, Amy Adams looks are very meh
Lex Luthor - I think even the biggest SnyderDemons hate him.
My take on it, if you take a still shot from this movie, it would fit very well into a comic book page. When it comes to how the scenes are composed, the movie looks amazing (dated CGI aside).
Yet again there is no defense, just insulting me or my sig.
So did anyone think adding the Leto Joker scene ( Let?s face it..back in 2017 did they even know Leto was going to be Joker ) was too overkill on Zac?s part .
Makes the same lick of sense that it makes in all of the comics why he doesn't kill his rogues gallery yet kills others, as in, it doesn't really. But the constant theme of not killing Joker as being his last tenuous line of not crossing through to being a monster, I guess, is what underpins it - as to why he needs Joker? Who knows, probably would be explored in the sequel. But also not hard to believe that in this timeline if things don't work out why Batman wouldn't care about crossing the line any longer and doing what he has always wanted to do. But within the context of this conversation, which yes; does happen, Joker pushes all of the buttons you'd need to push as a life-long adversary for Batman to threaten killing him. Brings up the death of his father, mother and adopted son (Robin), and then taunts how it was his fault for sending Robin, a boy, to do his, a man's, dirty work. As dialogue and commentary on their relationship etc. it isn't exactly knew writing, this is stuff explored in a lot of comics, recontextualised for his film.
But as a film that would explain BvS in greater detail of how he became derailed would be excellent. I can easily see this Joker and Affleck making for a great film ushering in his BvS character. Even better if we see how he was before the Death of Robin. Clearly, as a complete character arc which would cement this storyline, it'd have to have Batman sparing Joker in the beginning, Joker killing Robin in the middle, and then Joker escaping in the last act with a now off the tracks Batman.

You aren?t allowed to say that. I?ve mentioned that fact three times. Nobody can comprehend it.
The #RestoreTheSnyderVerse is hilarious and will be dead after The Batman releases in 2022.
