Man of Steel sequel to feature Batman (and others) (2016)


Recommended Posts

See Avengers...... all your favorite superhero movies in the same movie...

I did see Avengers. It was alright I guess, but forgettable. I just have never really cared for superhero mashups, it's like it's just done for the sake of it. I am holding my breath that Snyder will make it work.

 

 

 

 

Also a storyboard frame has leaked:

A bit fuzzy, but this is the logo from the announcement outside of a video, and there are rumors that somewhere in the MoS arc we'll see Kara Zor-El - Supergirl.

Rationale: her appearance in the prequel comic and the empty pod in the Fortress in MoS.

Seen that logo yesterday. It's pretty cool how Batman's symbol kind of looks like the one Batman used on his suit in Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns". It would be pretty cool to see Kara in the MoS movie series.

It's on the front page :p I am sure they will officially release it soon in all its HQ glory :yes:

Either that or it's based off the one from the Adama West series.

Wow, you must be really against this whole idea :p Because there's no way that they'd go that route. There wasn't any Superman in Adam West's series anyways.

No doubt it'll be good, just more evidence to the fact that Superman cant carry itself

 

Huh? Man of Steel, like it or not is gonna make over $700 Million worldwide. How is it Superman can't carry his own film?

The Dark Knight Returns logo has near vertical sides - very squareish. This logos upper 75% looks very much like the 1942 movie serial logo but with fewer points along the lower edge and no rib detail. Looks like they did a mashup of previous logos.

I love seeing stuff like that. You could hear the people who knew where the line was from, and then the logo popped up (then batman's logo after) and the crowd literally sounded like they would cause a phase shift in the space time continuum that would wipe out every universe ever created by comics. Yeah.

Amazing news. For some reason, I thought they announced another movie after Man of Steel 2 that would feature Batman. It didn't occur to me that they were talking about Man of Steel 2 as the movie to feature him. It'll be interesting because they may introduce Lex Luthor too. Someone on Reddit mentioned a bidding war between Wayne Enterprises and LutherCorp over the Daily Planet building.

I don't see Bale coming back...unless he plans on doing a JLA film, but I'd count him out.

It's pure speculation, and a bit of fan fiction, but my guess will be that LexCorp and Wayne Enterprises pool their resources together to come up with ways to handle the alien in case he steps out of line. Or they could compete for the same defense contract. I mean, we'll find out what happens when they release the film, but that's my guess. 

If they use elements from the dark knight returns in MoS2 then Bale coming back as batman would be the best way to do it instead of introducing someone new.  But who knows, I watched that video posted above and go pumped up as well.   I think Superman can do his own film fine, it's just that there's only so many bad guys that can translate to a good movie, Zod is kinda one of them but honestly I think the best ones to use for a MoS movie would be doomsday and Darkseid.    Now I think the best one for a JL movie would be Darkseid because he has an army to use.   I'd do doomsday for a MoS3 if I was in charge, would be a good way to end it if it's also going to be a trilogy.

Oh dear....

 

If you're excited by this you have no imagination...kinda like the person who came up with this idea.

 

Coming in 2015 the brand new series. "How I Big Banged Your Mother" with Sheldon Cooper and Lily Aldrin (non pornographic version)

Imagination has nothing to do with it, the MoS2 movie will have it's own thing, they just used the best, well known, line from the dark knight returns comic to let fans know that, yes, batman is coming back to the big screen.  Putting him in MoS2 is the best way to lead up to a future Justice League movie.   It's always Superman and Batman that come together first, then the other heroes join in.   And honestly, I don't think making a Flash or Wonder Woman movie before a JL movie will have the returns WB would like to see.   

 

IMO it'd be better to do a JL movie and then after you've introduced flash and WW you can think about doing their own movies, unless WB wants another GL on it's hands.  It's just one or two heroes the fans like more than the rest, for Marvel, aside from spiderman, they like Iron Man the best.  If there was no Iron Man in Avengers it NEVER would've made as much money as it did.  RDJs Iron Man made that film, also why he's role is so important in it.   Hulk? meh.  Thor?  meh.   Captain America?  meh.  

 

For DC it's the same thing, the fans like Batman the most, WB knows this and just having him in MoS2 means you'll make even more money, not that MoS flopped or anything, money wise.

^You're already proving how unimaginative you yourself are with that joke. The joke is kinda straightforward, anyone could've come up with that. Better luck next time though!

I meant the one on his suit though which looks kinda different :p

I can't believe everyone wants to see Bale back as Batman. Have you guys forgotten what happened at the end of "The Dark Knight Rises"? If they'd bring Bale back now, they'd ruin that ending for sure. Of course he wad dead in the comics for awhile and came back, but the ending of "The Dark Knight Rises" is different to be honest. It would ruin the idea Nolan had behind Batman's cowl. That it's just a mask, a symbol that everyone could wear.

For me, the Nolan Batman universe ended with "The Dark Knight Rises" and they're setting up a new film universe for the Justice League. They'll introduce a new actor to play Batman in "Man of Steel 2" and have that same actor play Batman in the upcoming reboot.

Errr this was announced years ago?

 

Has no one seen "I am Legend" in a scene Will smith walks past a building which displays a possible Batman/superman cross over film. At the time I assumed this to be fictional, but with this news I can see I was wrong.

 

Christan Bale and Henry Cavil have to be the heroes.  ....... if its someone else ...

SDCC: HIGH-QUALITY LOGO FOR WARNER BROS.' "SUPERMAN/BATMAN" SURFACES ONLINE

Comic-Con International attendees felt Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment's hands at their collective throat on Saturday, when it was announced that "Man of Steel" was officially green-lit for a sequel -- a sequel co-starring Gotham's Caped Crusader.

The Batman is joining forces with Superman in the untitled "Man of Steel" follow-up, directed by Zack Snyder with a story co-written by Snyder and David Goyer. Along with the movie announcement, an official logo was released at Comic-Con, and what appears to be a hi-res version of that very same art has surfaced online via the website Nerd Reactor.

    • Ummmm that is what is it supposed to do. Just turn if off in settings if you do not want it analyzing your open tabs. Chrome does the same thing with Gemini. Sarfari will do the samething after Apple's AI and even more so with the release of their 27 versions that is now powered by Googles LLM/ML models. Understanding why it is doing it and how it can help you vs jumping to some conspiracy theroy is a much better approach. As long as it can be turned off, all is good. Yes the default should be off but the a lot of people would never discover these features.
    • Just another reason (aside from many others) not to use Edge. Firefox 153.0b5 DEx64 has a similar feature added recently in prior builds that I will turn off at some point when I get around to it. It's the new "Something looks suspicious" page that pops up here and there. It cleverly hides itself between web pages that I've actually visited; as a result, you know, of selecting a web page and telling the browser where to go. The interesting thing is that it does not produce these warnings from pages that I, as the only intelligent user of the browser in my system, have ever directed the browser to open! What seems to be happening is that the browser looks at all the goofy ad links on a web page I do actually open and selects one that "looks suspicious" and then creates the "something looks suspicious" web page, which is neatly inserted, as mentioned, between web pages my RB ("real brain") has directed the browser to load in a session. The thing is, I usually look at links I am considering to follow before I ask the browser to load them, and in cases I have noticed where the link does indeed look suspicious, most of the time I will choose to not follow the link at all. Doesn't everyone do this or something similar? I am picky about what I voluntarily load... (I don't like links that start off fine, with a site designaiton that seems normal enough but then is followed by indecipherable alphanumeric strings many, many lines long, etc. I tend to reject those because they look suspicious. They may not be, but I don't care... I'll stay with Firefox, of course, if for no other reason than they usually let you turn off the junk you don't like. And because it isn't Edge... But at some point Microsoft will come to realize that putting your bookmarks on the left side is a Good Thing for a lot of people, just as Microsoft discovered when it had the bright idea of nailing the Windows taskbar to the bottom of the screen, when for decades Microsoft browsers had left that placement up to the user. They have finally reversed the obscenity of that decision. Finally.
    • Google was using the old CATPCHAs data to train their LLMs. What is the say they won't use this camera data of users to train their LLM? these companies need some strict regulations!
    • Depends on what you need. Might be a bit clearer on what you plan to do with it. Sort of a waste if you get the newest and greatest, but don't know how to use it.
