I don't hate Levi. I'm just so disappointed . . .
Throughout this month, we will be testing new features (like search) so you may experience some hiccups from time to time. We'll try to not be too disruptive...
DC Movies Thread - Shazam saves the day

@FatDogForMidTerms said in DC Movies Thread - Shazam saves the day:
It's still devastating when your parents die no matter how rich and or famous you are. C'mon now.
Even if he is a state of grief that’s no excuse to be parroting anti vaccine wooo shit.
People get killed because of this idiocy.
-
I am very pro vaccines / pro science and took every single one that was offered to me and urged those of my family who were sceptical of covid vaccines to take it.
I STILL think this current attitude where we condemn anyone who has fears or doubts about vaccines as almost being the devil is very silly. It's doesn't lead to anywhere.
People also get killed because of their own idiocy. There has to be a middle road here.
edit: but then again these are just the ramblings of a sorta-kinda centrist trying to yell against a rising tide so carry on

Oh yeah, that's been known for a while. Gadot filmed for The Flash and Shazam: Fury of the Gods. Personally, I wish they'd just not include her but I guess she's in too many scenes to cut at this point.
-
Safran and Gunn said that Gal, Zach, and Jason still have the door open and BB is pretty much confirmed to be placed in the DCU.
The only hiccup is that instead of communicating with Safran and Gunn, Patty tried to go to Warner Films as she usually does for her 1st draft. That was noted as a close example of why the former structure was trash.
It's like a MCU director/write going over Feige's head and over to Disney Film's head. Speaks to how Hamada didn't really have a fixed plan or the creatives would report to him.
Poster before the SB trailer

I imagine there's going to be a ton of Michael Keaton in this trailer to take the spotlight off of Ezra Miller, so it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. This whole project is just so off-putting, though. Jesus Christ...
-
Didn't even know Michael Keaton was going to be in this movie. Guess DC is cashing in on the multiverse trend too.
-
Well, Flash gives them a way to do it.

I thought that was common knowledge.
-
Sooooo . . . . Supergirl instead of Superman?
-
I’m considering not going to theaters for this film given Ezra’s questionable activities, but there’s more to the film that them*, and admittedly that trailer looked solid.
-
*Them not him
-
Crudup been around throughout all the director and writer changes, so I hope Ron does Henry justice. He hung around for so long, I know he will regret not being in this. I don't remember Sofia from Now and Then being announced as Nora. Muschietti seem to have a couple decent shots and casting.
Also, there's no Flashpoint without a slim Superman and I didn't see that coming with the Kara switch. Kinda torn because i'm open to any newer interpretation of Flashpoint, but i've seen too many and i'm fatigued.
-
Going for Kara rather than hiring new Superman (poor Henry . . .) was a clever idea. And I'm always up for Supergirl.
I probably won't go to theaters. But then again, it's Michael Keaton . . .

Here's a fun video from Sasha Calle reacting to her first view of her Supergirl:

Already going to Darkseid?
-
Don't tell me they convinced james gun to make justice league 2 sequel, but maybe part of elseworlds gun was talking about.
Or they just doing some darkseid movie to build him for 10 years later when we will get some new justice league.
-
I'm about 99% sure that the announcement is simply for another 'SnyderCon', going by what I've seen stated. Yeah, I know, it's weird to me, too.
In other news, Gunn stated on Twitter that he has officially hired himself to direct the Superman movie he's written. https://twitter.com/jamesgunn/status/1636091179711467520?s=46&t=TcaB8J9qkGVdtmeLOo4TVw
It looks like Gunn was able to find his 'in' on the movie and why he would even want to direct it, which is always nice to hear.

Yeah, the impact just won't be the same.
But can't blame them for the decision, all things considered.

Hoping to give Shazam 2 a shot this weekend. It’s getting mixed reviews, but from what I’ve heard from reviews, it sounds like an easy to digest fun film.
-
I didn’t hate the film, but it was just alright. Don’t think it should be bombing as bad as it is review and box office wise, but first movie’s better and dunno what’s really in the movie that stands out outside of your average superhero film. Wouldn’t recommend but wouldn’t tell people not to see the film. Didn’t spoil the ending but have more thoughts on the movie in spoiler tags.
-
Well, second superhero movie in a row released lately where critics were pretty lukewarm, but audiences liked it fine for the most part, if not as much as previous installments.
And that's where I'm at, too. I rewatched the first movie once again before going to see Fury of the Gods, and like most people, I didn't think the sequel was as good as the original (though I did see a few reviews that thought it was better?), but still liked it and enjoyed myself.
I hope we do get a third one, yes. The fact that Gunn and Safran have named Levi's Shazam as one of the actors they plan to keep around along with Gadot's WW and Momoa's Aquaman does seem to indicate that they plan to continue using the character; on the other hand, since there's no Shazam sequel on the books for the first "chapter" of the new continuity, by the time they do make one (if it even happens at all), they'd probably re-cast all the actors who play the kids, since the originals, well, won't be kids anymore. -
I watched the first half of the first Shazam the other night and, damn, I forgot how good the comedy was in that one.

Good news for me. It comes out digitally in under 40 days
