It being a part of the DCEU and all still has me worried, especially with the reshoots WB forced, but that could be a good thing.

Yeah, people forget that it leaked and WB only released it to at least give people a clear view.

They didn't ever release the Comic-Con Man of Steel trailer with Thin Red Line music, which I think was the best one. Not even on home video.

>>83874604
>especially with the reshoots WB forced
WB didn't force anything. Ayer said:
>"If they don’t like your movie they tend to not want to invest in it. If they love your movie, they give you what you want. And I don’t think there’s any director that finishes a movie and says, ‘Wow that’s perfect, that’s what I really want it to be.’ Every movie I’ve ever made I wish I could go and grab some additional stuff and that’s exactly the chance I got this time. It’s like getting a new car but you get fancy rims and a new stereo.”

>Steve asked Ayer if the reshoots are adding bits and pieces here and there or if he’s adding a significant new set piece, but the filmmaker was tight-lipped about specifics, only saying “all of the above.”

I wonder if Ant-Man had come out that year, we'd be getting an Atom movie instead.

>>83874561
I'm hoping a lot of the grimmy darkness that was present in the first teaser is still present in the final movie but supposedly there's always been a lot of dark comedy as well. These posters kinda reflect that.

>>83874607
People keep on making that comparison but that is stretching, imo. Even for all the success Marvel had with that movie. Even for all of the ways WB has fucked up with the DCEU, I really don't think they're necessarily trying to emulate GotG.

They don't need anymore trailers. It's a month and a half away.

>>83874661
WB "leaks" more than a colander, they need to quit pretending that all this stuff is unofficial instead of a marketing ploy.

The teaser was recorded by people in the audience, I doubt that was a' marketing ploy', especially taking into consideration the statement they released afterwards.

>>83874617
It's basically just DC saying, "We need the Deadpool/Guardians of the Galaxy audience!"

I like the juxtaposition between this movie's marketing and the marketing for BvS. Like, one was focusing on drama and stakes, and this one is like "COMIC BOOKS."

>>83874981
to be fair, Suicide Squad looks pretty fun.

The big downside is that they're adapting the shitty New 52 run with Waypool Quinn.

Shit's the exact same as Bendis Guardians, but at least they didn't get a movie.

It reminds me why the New 52 was such a stupid idea, at least in regards to its' attempts at brand synergizing. WB couldn't get their DCCU off before Cereal King was all "nope fuck you, we're going to start bringing the classic stuff back"

>>83874995
>And wheres the Wonder Woman trialer

I don't know, something seems off about Harley.

None of this sounds like shit Harley would say.

Wonder if they're going to portray her and Joker's relationship sympathetically or show it as abusive.

>>83875034
It's a pretty even mix of New 52 and Ostrander's really.

When it comes to adaptations of a character, ONLY "Not muh" has meaning. ONLY "Not muh" has value.

Until DC understands that audiences want to see the characters as they know them, it will continue to fail over and over again.

MoS should have been the wake-up call on that. BvS was the inarguable evidence. People know characters a certain way, and want to see that.

It was in response to a dude getting water. I don't know, it makes her sounds sarcastic in an almost team mother kind of way.

I may be wrong of course. It's only in conjunction with the dumbass "I am known to be quite vexing", and it seems suspicious.

Heat Legend didn't play the Joker as audiences knew him. Was it all death hype?

>>83875211

Much of it is Snyder fallout.

>>83875414
Basically this. I don't really have an interest in generic will smith action flick #218. Did in the beginning though, but the more I see, the more I grow more and more disinterested in everything about it. At least croc and katana look great.

What do you think?

>>83875389
It honestly looks okay. Not great, not terrible.

I'm hoping for its failure, though, because the DCEU needs to fail to clear the way for something better.

Snyder fucked up Batman and Superman so badly that it's better to put this sick beast down.

People are concerned it might end up awful because it's turned into a Harley/Joker vehicle, has been reshot considerably with the likely intention of making it more so, possibly reducing "the team" into background-filler.

There could easily be enough Joker/Harley/Affleck/Will Smith going on at this point that there's little left for anyone else but fightan scenes.

>>83876697
>No one is saying it's shit, no one has seen it.
Early reviews have been positive

>>83876718
Yeah, just like BvS.
I don't take the claps of WB employees and their pals seriously, and neither should you.

>>83876736
The early reactions came from WB employees, the early reaction for SS are from the general public.

>mfw the last good live-action DC movie came out in 2008

Who do you think dies?

Slipknot, obviously
Croc
Enchantress
And El Diablo in a noble death

>>83876758
Sure. Get back to us when WB releases into the wild and we can get real reactions.

BvS has destroyed their credibility on this front.

>>83876839
Slipknot will set off his bomb
Diablo will go out in a blaze of glory
At best I see Croc getting injured. Other than that the team should be fine

>>83876904
>Get back to us when WB releases into the wild and we can get real reactions.
But that's exactly what they did.

>>83876697
The movie can only be shit, for exactly the reason you picture.

>>83876925
Enchantress has to die. She's the main villain.

I really hope this is good, because its WB's last chance to win back audience investment in the DCEU. But also I hope they dont get carried away with these characters if it does become successful, god knows we dont need a shit ton of spinoffs from this
>>83876950
Wasnt counting Enchantress as a member but yeah shes probably going to die

>>83876926
SS opened everywhere? I must have missed that, I thought that was happening in August.

>>83877007
You said, "release into the wild" which is that they did.

They had it screened to people who didn't know what it was going to be to get their opinion. The reaction was positive.

>>83876795

Why would they want to advertise in front of a movie no one is going to see?

>>83876987

>>83877066
As with John Carter, only book fans will want to see it.

>>83877066
Because WB can't into anything

>>83875314
heath ledger played an insane psychopath with a high amount of intelligence and cunning, which is exactly what the joker is

oh and he died

>>83876490
No he wasn't. Andrew Kreisberg explained what happened with that movie. The execs basically took control.

>>83877138
Tarzan isn't as well revered though.

>>83877138
Tarzan has slightly more cultural cache than John Carter did, though. Johnny Weissmuller's movies in the 30s brought the character into the general public consciousness, and there have been Tarzan movies and TV shows (and satires like George of the Jungle) ever since.

I'm not saying Tarzan is super popular, just that I think the average person would at least have an idea of who the character is, whereas no one but the few people who had read the Mars books recognized the name or character of John Carter.

>>83877244
Tarzan is a lot more revered than John Carter. Most people didn't even know about John Carter.

Tarzan has absolutely no buzz though, it's gonna flop, so it would be a waste of time to put the Suicide trailer during Tarzan.

>>83877214
Yeah, I don't get people who say that TDK Joker wasn't comic accurate. He got his characterization down to a T, even without the laughing gas

>>83877266
>>83877272
I like Tarzan but when I looked at this movie it just seems like a weird sequel to something no one saw.

>>83874267
>rainbow colors out the ass

>>83877374
I'm not sure what you're laughing at, or what Synder has to do with it as he's not directing it, but yes, the movie was screened to the general public.

>Movie about Batman and Superman fighting but teaming up to defeat a bigger threat
>Let's make that shit as dark as we can, it's for adults

>>83877358
I hate how everyone pretends Guardians invented the "team of misfits" thing

>>83877374
This one gets me every time lol.

>>83877414
Dirty Dozen apparently never existed. Guardians of the Galaxy invented that trope.

>>83877445
We all had high hopes, and it should have been better. Its only up from here right?..................right?

>>83877457
It applied it to cape movies.

And SS is ripping off the style.

>>83877504
Suicide Squad is inspired by Dirty Dozen, we've known that for years.

>>83877527
Sure it is, buddy.

Sure it is.

>>83877266
>>83877138
>tfw John Carter actually wasn't awful
>no one cared about it though

>>83877504
So because a comic book movie does it its suddenly new and frowned on when another does it? Right....

>>83877569
You do realize the criminal Suicide Squad goes back to the 80s right?

>>83877569
Do you think Suicide Squad is copying Guardians of the Galaxy or Dirty Dozen, because if it's the latter, Suicide Squad is inspired by the Dirty Dozen.

>>83877482
Maybe the fact that so many people seem to be down on it could work in its favor, possibly.

Hype backlash can be a bitch so when people go in expecting it to be terrible and it turns out to be pretty decent this could be seen as a win.

>>83877457
E. M. Nathanson, the author of the book that the Dirty Dozen is adapted from, was a huge Marvel Comics fan during its 60s heyday and is on record saying that the book was heavily influenced by Guardians of the Galaxy.

During the film's production Robert Aldrich met with Gene Colan at the Marvel offices in NYC several times for advice.

>>83877603
They really should've made the SS movie a Cold War period piece.

that wall!

>>83877680
>E. M. Nathanson, the author of the book that the Dirty Dozen is adapted from, was a huge Marvel Comics fan during its 60s heyday and is on record saying that the book was heavily influenced by Guardians of the Galaxy.


So his book, which was released in 1965, was inspired by a Marvel group that appeared in 1969 and wasn't even about what the modern Guardians are about?

>>83875265
Not muh ism inherently carries bias and is toxic to all discussion.

Plenty of beloved capeshit characters barely 'resemble the source material' (as if theres ever been more VAGUE a fucking statement - what specific source material are you possibly referring to and what gives that issue/series/run/episode more weight than any other?) but were excused because the movie surrounding them was good.

>>83877761
Me thinks you took the bait.

>>83877761
Colan wrote two versions of the concept, the one published in 1969 and the one later adapted by Dan Abnett in hsis 2008 series.

Nathanson was friends with Stan Lee from his work in the NYC publishing world and knowing each other from the NYC Jewish community. Lee told him about Colan's unused idea, which was combined with research Nathanson had been doing about WWII to create the Dirty Dozen.

>>83877886
Come the fuck on.

You say "Superman" to anyone, anywhere and they all have a similar idea of what he's supposed to be like.

It sure as shit wasn't what was in MoS or BvS.

>>83878066
Is it wrong that when I think of Superman I think of the DCAU version and what I come to hope for?

>>83878066
Invincible guy in blue tights that flies around and is really strong and saves the world.
Superman is a poor case because people tend to reduce him to his powers and feats and his personality is secondary if considered at all.

>>83878121
It's the only right view to have, anon.

>>83878138
Autists like you, maybe.

Most people know him as a shining symbol for good who helps people and does what's right.

Not a mopey distant god who agonizes over what to do.

>>83878157
Did jobbing help his character in that universe? I felt that he was OP when he needed to be but wasnt annoyed when he got hurt.

>>83878176
Look at my first post>>83875166
>tired unsubstantiated "Not muh"-isms that ruin discussion
Then look at your post
>Most people know him as .....

Congrats, youve done it. A completely unsubstantiated and tired generalization meant to shut down a discussion through perceived authority.

You are the problem

>You say "Superman" to anyone, anywhere and they all have a similar idea of what he's supposed to be like.

Not really; that's why it's can be so difficult to get him to resonate with people.

>>83874617
>Is the movie going to be a gritty villain driven action movie, or a slapsticky deconstruction of superhero films?

why can't it be both

>>83878176
Dude I agree with you. But when you talk to people that like the Snyderverse they go "WHAT HE FLIES. HE SAVED THE ENTIRE PLANET. HE'S TOTALLY SUPERMAN".

The fact that I wouldn't follow that mopey piece of shit to McDonalds let alone into battle doesn't seem to get through to them because he has a version of the costume and the achievements.

Maybe that other anon is right. If you're so caught up in your own head you can't even tell when someone is on your side then there is a problem.

>>83878321
I'd say "because then you get Green Lantern" but at this point I'm willing to be there are people here that will defend that movie too.

>>83878268
I'm the solution. The problem is Snyder. The cause is people like you thinking that characterization doesn't matter.

Luckily, MoS and BvS were failures, showing that you and your beliefs have literally no value.

>>83878339
>But when you talk to people that like the Snyderverse

We can safely ignore all 3 of them.

http://pdsh.wikia.com/wiki/Death%20Patrol

Check this out, both predated The Deadly Dozen and GOTG.

>>83878321
Because it's hard to do both serious and silly together well. Not that it's impossible, but usually you just end up with a work having a really uneven tone undercutting the serious parts and killing the humor.

>>83878372
Green Lanterns problem was half assing it from the start. They wrote a script that was tv movie tier, the CGI was shit, and they had most of it set on earth. You have to go all out with the material

>>83878513
>They wrote a script that was tv movie tier,
Uh no dude. The problem was they wrote like THREE scripts. One of which was fucking awesome. It had Alan Scott, the Corps actually doing shit, more time in space, Guy Gardner an Clark Kent cameos, better Star Sapphire references, and no fucking Parallax cloud.

But instead of going with that, then some of the suits said "We want a comedy! People are laughing during Iron Man! Make it like that!" and others still went "It needs drama! Pathos! Like BATMAN!" and so more drafts got written and taken apart and combined so that we ended up with a shambling Frankenstein's monster that you saw on screen.

>>83878948
From what I recall, there were two good scripts. One was a Berlanti one which is the one you're talking about, and the other was one by Geoff Johns.

For some reason they just took random parts from both and thought it'd end up good.

I fucking love that style.
10/10 poster
They are doing one heck of a job marketing this.

>>83878948
Whats depressing is that Green Lantern has enough material to stand on its own away from the rest of the DCEU. But because of one fuckup the studio is scared to try again, which is the reason why the next film is so late in the DCEU timeline

The hype train has no brakes

When was the last time a major film like this had a soundtrack with popular bands writing exclusive tracks and doing movie-themed music videos (that wasn't one band doing the whole concept album like Tron)? I like it, seems kind of like a 90s approach. Like with Will Smith in MIB.

>>83877457
You're doing the autistic thing of drilling down to minor details to prove that you're right. It doesn't matter if it was inspired by Dirty Dozen if the general public seeing it links "irreverent action comedy of misfits teaming up with neon color palette" to GOTG. Which they will since it's a more recent point of comparison.

Sheeeeeit, I don't even know how to feel anymore. At least the Hot Topic Batfag crowd will keep this movie from total failure... hopefully

>>83874267
So it's pretty much a comedy now, yeah?

>>83875389
Disney shills you can always spot them because they make terrible jokes

>>83885041
Is there even THAT much money in the Hot Topic crowd anymore? I thought they were dying out

>>83874664
This is the same David Ayer who did End of Watch, Fury, Harsh Times, Training Day etc? Sheeit

Critics and audiences have clearly rejected Snyder's grim and gritty DC twice now.

Ayer is not Snyder but I don't see how lightening this up can be a bad thing. A breezier experience means they can turn off their brains and give more things a pass. More serious means more scrutiny.

>>83880081

If Ayer and Jenkins outperform Snyder critically, what's in store for Justice League?

True, most of their money was probably their parents, but it seems like its still a sizeable young adult demographic, and I suppose we can lump normies in this group too, and normies are always up for anything Batman.

I literally see nothing wrong with this cover except Marvel folks wanting sneer at it/trying prove some point about WB being indecisive between Snyder's admitted boner for Frank Miller edge & David Ayer who's already mentioned several times that the movie would be more comedy than what the leaked Comic-Con trailer portrayed. Official trailers literally been consistent with his quote despite Faraci's lying ass saying the movie was getting reshoots to reach a quip quota.

What's the matter, I thought you Marvel kids liked bright colors and the funnies?

>>83886504

im not entirely against having 2 difrent tones running at the same time but its very hard to do right. the fact that they havent actually made it clear what tone they are going with yet makes me think thats what they are going to try and do

>>83878321
its hard to pull of and people were worried after there last 2 films failed if it werent shaping up to be so good it would be far worse then tone we would think they cant pull off.

>>83874695

>>83875034
not so much the suicide squad run but for harley it seems like a mix of old and new harley
most importantly shes back with the joker

>>83875056
i will admit it is a bit odd but i am ok with a more randumb harley.

the odd thing is its not really the same sort of randumb as her current comics its almost like they tried to find a middle ground between nu52 harley and older harley and somehow ended up at ditzy harley.

we are going to have to wait for the movie to see how it turns out im optimistic but i can very much understand your concerns.

>>83875166
jesus fuck anon i might disagree with anon but its an understandable concern im sure pretty much everybody gave it at least a few moments thought when they saw the trailer

>>83875213
hm good catch i wonder if that was intentional

>>83875314
a bit of death hype but it never really got that out of character from comic joker

the main reason it was so successful is because it was a bloody good performance

>>83875389
i would say considering how much is stacked against it /co/ has been pretty optimistic
that may be because we have heard almost nothing but good things so far but still.
