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!

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.
