Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)


Recommended Posts

There's still time to polish the CGI, this isn't coming out for another year, normally all the CGI is wrapped up in post production.  I think they just did a quick job for the trailer.   Personally, CGI issues aside, I think it's fine.  If they don't touch it up by it's theatrical release, there's always the BluRay version, it's not the first or last time a studio goes back and tweaks movies for their BD releases.

If the movies are part of a big DC family, Batman v. Superman is the older, more mature sibling on which the weight of responsibility falls. Suicide Squad is the bratty little kid, chewing bubble gum and tagging walls.

At first Bats and Sups didn't exactly get along, and they've had their moments since, so that's not new. This isn't the Super Friends.

The heat vision was probably Zod, but both were tearing ass through the cities.

I'm wondering of the crisis that pulls them together is the Atlantean-Amazon war from Flashpoint?

It was started by assassination of Amazon Queen Hippolyta at the (partly political) wedding of Arthur and Diana. Garth, an ally of Arthur, was blamed but that wasnt the case.

I'm wondering of the crisis that pulls them together is the Atlantean-Amazon war from Flashpoint?

 

It would be really too much if they introduced an alternate universe in the movie that's supposed to establish the 'regular' universe. I'm thinking it's probably Lex and his machinations that unites them.

They don't have to introduce all of Flashpoint, or even Flash, just the war and the runup to it.

 

Wasn't there rumors of a bunch of cameos/teasers of other heroes like Flash though?  Or are we just going to get a glimpse of Aquaman, though that's still a rumor as well I think?

I'm posting this video because if it's true, that's amazing. But it's only a fan theory that AngryJoe seems to want to believe (like I want to believe, it would be awesome, seriously) - BUT beware of possible spoilers if it is true. POSSIBLE SPOILERS IF TRUE I REPEAT:

 

WARNING: Video contains swearing.

What's more exciting than watching Batman and Superman square off on the big screen for the first time? Task Force X apparently! In a surprising turn of events, the Comic-Con trailer for Suicide Squad has overtaken it's Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice counterpart on YouTube views - despite being released a whole two days later. Currently, the David Ayer helmed film is sitting on over 36.1 million views on the popular video sharing website, while BVS has only 34.9 million.

Glad to hear that. Despite Man of Steel being a terrible introduction to these movies, at least on paper, DC seems to be taking a bit more creative approach -- the directors aren't just hired nobodies, and the story isn't just the same recycled turd over and over again. Suicide Squad could be the most refreshing take on these movies exactly because it's not just Random Hero fighting Cheesy Villain Counterpart. As a matter of fact, that's the most interesting aspect of BvS as well.

I have to think that WB and DC have a plan laid out for how they want these movies to tie into each other, unless they decide to just figure that out after the fact, but I don't think so, I think SS and BvS will be linked in some fashion and events in both will play into the next solo Batman movie as well.  The strongest rumor out there right now, or at least one that I think is more likely, is that the suit was Jason Todds and the solo batman movie we're going to get is going to borrow from the Red Hood arc and Todds return etc. 

 

I really hope WB/DC can work everything together, as far as how they introduce other heroes like Flash, GL, Aquaman and bring them all into the big JL movie.  Heck, the best thing would be to have cameos or maybe a bit more than just a cameo from one of the trinity members in future flash, GL movies to not only tie things up but also give those movies a boost.

I wouldn't mind it. It's time for them to acknowledge the Robin's in the movies properly, and I'm really glad that so far they're doing that. Seeing Jason Todd in person in the movie will be a HUGE deal for me!

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
    • Decentralized search result anonymization...
    • Russia invaded Crimea, so not sure what you are getting at. Are you saying that the E.U is like what the USSR was? What is wrong with wanting control over your own country? i bet Trump would not stand by and allow Canada to control the U.S.
