Well, it looks like the days of criticising Warner Bros. for not taking advantage of the DC superheroes they hold the right to will soon be over! Following reports that Batman/Superman will be released in 2015, The Hollywood Reporter has now learned that the studio will also announce a movie featuring The Flash for 2016 and then Justice League in 2017. There's still no word on Wonder Woman, although it could be that they decide to introduce her in the superhero ensemble before risking a solo outing. Either way, expect confirmation of this news to follow shortly. The site does also add that they too have heard that Zack Snyder will helm the Batman/Superman movie.

Please.

 

A Justice League movie? Are they joking?

 

Im really hoping that the Spielberg/Lucas prediction of a Hollywood crash comes true.

 

Yea, I don't know who likes superhero universe crossover stories except young kids into comics for the first time.

Quit being selfish. Hollywood doesn't owe you anything. If you don't like superhero movies, then don't watch them. A lot of people like them and they do well. The Avengers is the 3rd highest-grossing movie of all time. Iron Man 3 and The Dark Knight rises aren't far off at the number 5 and 9 spots, respectively. That's 3 superhero movies in the top 10 highest-grossing movies of all time.

 

Anyway, I'm happy to learn that they're going forward with a Justice League movie.

Every year the average gross profit for movies increases because of inflation, higher movie prices, increased distribution avenues, and lower costs of production due to CGI. That's why ,most of the movies at the top of the list are newer and most of the movies at the bottom are older. They also tend to be big summer blockbusters. Recently, the summer blockbusters given the greenlight by studios are superhero movies because, as movie ticket sales are generally going down, superhero movies tend to be much safer than anything more creative. They have a formula and stick to it. I don't think the numbers mean as much as you say.

 

But noted, at the moment, they are earning the studios profit.

Lets keep this about the topic and now about if Hollywood should stop this or not. You can create a separate topic about that instead of hijacking this one. It's so easy anyways; if you don't like it, why keep yourself busy with it? Just forget about it and move on to something you actually DO like. Your worlds aren't shattered by the fact that there are people on this world who makes these kinds of movies. Or wait... time is shifting into a new timeline where it is a possibility... BRACE YOURSELF!

On Topic: Finally DC is pushing things forward. I can't wait to see all this on the big screen, haha.

Judging by the amout of money superhero crossovers make... a bunch of people.

Also, nostalgic fans (the old-school comics fans) - why else has interest in the Golden Age and Silver Age (both DC and Marvel, for that matter) remained constant?

      I've been using MWB Premium for a number of years so that along with Windows updates and updated browser should be fine. Thanks for that.

      So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
