I disagree. You can argue the over-reaction but it was a great film, and Ledger nailed the role for what the film was supposed to be.

I agree with you, I also agree with him in that the news of his death and this being his last big role probably helped to add another $100mil to the box office total in the US at least.

Man of Steel and Justice League were acceptable, but the rest have indeed been garbage. Makes me wish they'd continued on with the plan to make Green Lantern the starting point - it wasn't the greatest film but it was better than any of the DCU films except WW. Honestly, the only DC film I have any hope for is Shazam. If WB wants this movie to work, they need to let Phoenix study the master - Cesar Romero will forever be the definitive Joker.

+Warwagon MVC Posted October 3, 2018 MVC Share Posted October 3, 2018 Joaquin Phoenix would have made an amazing bruce banner in the Avengers Movie (He was offered the roll before the current guy). This guy would have played a MUCH better complex character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted October 3, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted October 3, 2018 Seeing how WW 1 and 2, and Aquaman are prequels, timeline wise, to BvS/JL and maybe even MoS? I don't know if Aquaman is before MoS or not? WB could just redo the DCU (name has already changed from DCEU) without making a big thing of it. Just, as I've said a few times before, use your flash movie to rewrite MoS-BvS-JL like they didn't happen, or happened in a alternate DCU version of flashpoint, and just go with WW, WW2, Aquaman, Shazam, and I guess this new Joker movie as part of the new DCU line. Then just do a new superman and batman and act like the others never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One guy uses CG thinking that it makes a film and thinks that he is a storyteller. Another guy knows that he's all about action, and he leaves it at that.

George P Global Moderator Posted October 3, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted October 3, 2018 I think people would be surprised at just how much green screen and CG are in all the marvel movies, they use it a lot as well, they've just done a better job with it compared to DC for whatever reason.

That's because Zack Snyder's pre-requisite is blatantly obvious BAD CG! It's what makes a Zack Snyder movie, it wouldn't be one without it.

I think DC tried to rush in on what Marvel did and try and catch them. DC didn't give it some time to grow. I loved Man of Steel, Henry Carvill was a brilliant Superman. Batman vs Superman, grew on me. Justice Leauge i watched for the 2nd time, again didn't like the over use of CGI in which i would fire the company, it was utter rubbish!! Aquaman looks quite good and going to see that. DConnell and +primortal 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should give BvS another viewing. My first viewing left me so disappointed that I haven't been able to bring myself to watch it again.

George P Global Moderator Posted October 9, 2018 Global Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2018 Everyone agrees that WB rushed the DCEU, we needed a 2nd MoS and a new stand alone Batman movie before they even should've started talking about BvS.

George P Global Moderator Posted April 3, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted April 3, 2019 interested in seeing how this effects future batman movies. Though personally I'd like to see the next batman films use other characters and not rush back to more Joker right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted April 3, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 3, 2019 Looks brilliant, I can't wait! I think Joaquin Phoenix has aged well and from what I saw of the trailer he seems like a great fit for the role. Wow I googled him and he's only 44, I thought he was much older than me (in his 50's) lol! But anyway I think he looks good in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
