But in the comics, Doomsday was essential to the story. He set off that entire plotline. I can't see him serving any other purpose in this one, other than being an excuse for seeing 30 minutes of dumb action.

Other than Doomsday being an existential threat, which he excells at, that takes the League to defeat.  You know...."Rise Of Justice"?

Does anyone else think the exploding Rocket CG scene looks terrible.

Yeah, that's video game level CGI right there. © Zack Snyder 2006-2016.

Well, I guess you're right, there really isn't a good way to bring them together unless you have a threat each can't handle on their own. Still, a freaking monster... It's like Iron Man fighting a robot, how many times have we seen that one.

I am excited about the movie, but I do think they are overdoing it a little. I really wish we had a solo Superman movie to follow up MoS. The appearance of Wonder Woman seems so damned cheesy too.

They're starting Justice Leage and she's a founding member. She also needs to be there to lay down the law when 'the boys' start slamming sausages on the table or do something stupid.

I downloaded it, but thanks to you, I'm not going to watch it!

If you think that's annoying, the script leaked a year or two ago and everything in it matches up perfectly with what's already known. Knowing that is truly annoying.

The problem was, it leaked long before the first bit of information came out and before the first teaser. It was thought that it was someone making it up. Only after the trailers started to come out did people realize it was real.

I never even knew a script leaked, also, I've only seen the teaser trailer for SvBDoJ and have never watched the full trailer, I actually stopped watching trailers a long time ago, unless I am sitting in a theatre waiting for a movie to start.

How did they spoil the entire movie? I kinda doubt WB etc would let them just come out and talk about the villain(s) etc, but then again who the hell knows these days. (in spoiler tags please)

Huh?  It wasn't spoiled at all.

It sure felt spoiled to me.

 

Spoiler

They basically laid out the whole plot... Bruce blames Supes for the events of MoS, Lex manipulates stuff so the two of them end up fighting then he unleashes Doomsday and WW won't appear until the end of the film to help fight it.

 

Sure, the trailer kind of alluded to some of that but here they just spelled it all out leaving nothing to speculation.

Fixed that for you :)

 

You shouldn't have had to, it has been working fine after not working for so long, and now it's not working again.

The only thing I did was change the URL.

 

I've found if you use the "share" link provided by YouTube it's a hit and miss (the one that shortens to youtu.be) whereas if you copy the URL straight out of the address bar it seems to work more reliably. It's no issue either way, happy to try where I find anything like that :)

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      By zikalify · Posted

      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.

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
