What exactly do you want? The fact of the matter is that the vast majority of DCs enemies for their team up films need CGI to even exist. You can get away with humans and costumes in solo films, like MoS or Batman, but Steppenwolf is a dark god of an alien world. Or shall we just dress up Galadriel as a goth and call it a day?

It's also a strawman, unless you mean it as broad critisicm. From Hulk, to Ultron, to Ares, there are mostly/all CGI character all across capeshit these days. Have you gone back to watch Avengers 1 recently?

>>93863951
This >>93863870 is what Steppenwolf looks like you fucking casual. The whole appeal of the new gods is that they can get away with looking ridiculous, you want Granny Goodness to be a cloud monster?

Uh...not that guy, but speak for yourself, mate. That is absolutely not the whole appeal of the New Gods for most people.

Maybe ridiculous is the wrong word, but they are basically Kirby unchained. They are weird and wonderful, they have silly gimmicks but can murder entire planets with them.

>>93864302
That's even worse, Steppenwolf is supposed to be the last of the Old Gods, Darkseid's Uncle. Hes supposed to be a Viking.

Steppenwolf isn't an Old God, the Old Gods are dead.

BTW I'm talking about Kirby's Fourth World here so don't cite some Johns diarrhea as an argument

>>93864436
Sorry my lore is isn't quite up to snuff on this, I thought a few survived and thats where Apocalypse and New Genesis came from. Still they don't look like aliens.

This bodes well for Ironside as Darkseid.

>>93864626

Your theory makes as much sense as what Kirby wrote. He never really explains what Old Gods are or the specific history. He kind of made it up as he went.

>>93864666
As I understand it they were supposed to be Marvels Asgardians and Olympians. See guy with winged helmet and hammer here >>93864436. Wonder Woman actually kind of sets it up because they talk about the death of the gods.

>>93864302

Kirby had no consistency, sometimes he wouldn't even flip the page back to the beginning of the comic he was currently drawing.

>>93864937
That image in OP is literally pulled straight from the end of BvS you dumb fuck.
How gullible are you? We have no idea what he looks like in JL

>>93864937
Neither of the looks are good anon. The real problem is no one gives a fuck about Steppenwolf and the fact that hes the villain for Justice League is downright asinine. If we're doing New Gods, just go straight to Darkseid. Not only that, but there are half a dozen better choices for a JL movie villain

>>93864953
Like Darkseid and Kalibak, right?

>>93864984
My favorite pat of Kirby's non-consistency is that Kalibak was standing on a roof for more than half of the original Fourth World run.

>>93865023
Kalibak look like a troll and Darkseid looks like a rock man, both having primarily human traits and the weird elongated face that sculpt has. The New Gods basically looked for the most part human anon. Watch The Furies be ugly ass harpies

I could sit here for the rest of my night and post all of the reasons that you're 100% dead wrong but instead it's the filter for you.

The whole point of the New Gods is the ironic dramatic inversions you dopes.

Granny is a sweet old cookie baking granny except she's a manipulative psychopath, Kanto is an Errol Flynn free wheeling dandy fop except he's a ruthless assassin, Godfrey is a pious devout preacher except he's a manipulative huckster selling slavery, Darkseid is a ruthless totalitarian Machiavellian rock faced would be dominator of all free will except he he is soft on his son, etc.

The inversions don't work if they're inhuman CGI monsters.

Are you kidding? That's the kind of stuff that the original King Kong did (only by doing things like filming in front of a projector).

That's as close to practical effects as CGI is going to get.

It's either GCI monsters or actors cosplaying like MCU's Thor, both are cheesy, the latter is closer to Jack Kirby's designs but it would be too silly for the DCEU.

So the MCU wins again in that regard

Krypton in MoS already looked like Apokolips.

You're pretty much an idiot if you expect anything to look good or accurate in these films. Everything has to be alien armor with muted colors or normies will think it's "silly" and designs have to be focus-tested into oblivion.

Honestly I can't understand how anyone with the tiniest amount of respect for comics can enjoy these movies, you could preface them all with "loosely based on characters that have appeared in DC Comics"

depends on the context.

in anything else. it just looks like you cheap out.

desu I much prefer the Steppenwolf in OPs pic rather than just "some guy with an axe helmet"

It makes him more unique and gives them more opportunity to do stuff with him, like maybe make him 12 feel tall so we can have a scene where every member of the Leauge fights him at once

I'm not saying go the Doomsday route, they need to give a voice and personality, but I do like the BvS depiction we've seen so far

>>93867550

>Johans floating

>>93864302

>>93867581
They overdetailed his armor a bit but he's still a 9 foot tall big guy with a skrull chin.

>>93867618
He has the proportion of some Overwatch or TF2 character, you know what I mean?

>>93867666
I'd have less of a problem with it if he had any color on him besides fucking grey. Make him various shades of green like the old version or even red and black like in the New 52, anything besides this bland shit.

>>93867666
>they need to give a voice and personalit

Do you seriously think Ciaran Hinds would be hired to voice him if they didn't give him personality?

>>93867689
Judging from that one statue he'll also wear normal clothes. Wonder if we'll get the farmer scene

Orion is a violent brute that shouldn't be tolerated by his peers.

Again, that IS practical effects. Nothing is computer generated, just computer composited. Which is identical and simply more efficient/with less artifact-inducing than their analog counterparts which have been used for close to a century now.
