UPDATE: Inde Navarette turned down a role in DiCaprio-Bale’s ‘HEAT 2’ to star as Rogue in Marvel Studios’ ‘X-MEN’.
Do you think she made the right call? Or did she just messed up?
Is John Stewart’s One Night Stand In Lanterns Accurate?
So I’m fairly newer to the character of John Stewart and my only real exposure to him was through JL/JLU. I see how based on this first episode of Lanterns we see that he’s been working on becoming a GL his entire life, is very disciplined, respects/obeys the chain of command, and says he doesn’t trust anyone. Then he does a quick truck hookup?
I couldn’t help but feel that this was inconsistent with what’s been shown and I wanted to ask fans more knowledgeable about him if he’d do something like this. My problem isn’t with the sexual content. I loved Peacemaker and enjoyed Game of Thrones, my issue is when it’s out of character for someone to do something. Honestly I feel like Guy would have done this while he was in training.
Black or blue? How about something different?
Batman‘s Cape and cowl should be a deep blue like a navy blue or something. That way it looks black in dark scenes, but when a light flashes across it, it looks bluish.
My wish for ‘Man of Tomorrow’: More Clark Kent the reporter please!
I loved ‘Superman’ (2025) but it still bums me out that the movie was busy with so much stuff that it never explores the reporter Clark Kent working at the Daily Planet, beyond that one solitary scene in the beginning post-Hammer of Boravia fight, and Clark is almost always surrounded by people who know that he is Superman.
I hope ‘Man of Tomorrow’ (2027) would give us more of Clark Kent the reporter and his struggles to keep his dual identity secret. That would be so much fun to watch!
UPDATE: The “..where I play Harvey Dent” line from the Sebastian Stan interview article has been removed.
Sebastian Stan confirms that he is playing Harvey Dent in ‘The Batman: Part II’.
Okay, the fifth DCU project has finally been released. What do you think?
Is the DCU taking shape and heading in the right direction, or is it doing the same thing as the previous DCEU?
All we need is a Green Arrow and Black Canary rom-com project and the DCU will become the most versatile universe out there!!
At this point just take him in the DCU after his trilogy
*The Batman Part II took 5 years just to start filming, and James Gunn still wants to wait until that entire trilogy ends before introducing a Batman into his own universe? Why not just use Robert Pattinson? He'd easily be old enough to have Robins and the entire Bat-Family by the time that trilogy wraps up.*
*Besides Superman, the DCU is sadly feeling a bit stagnant. How can we get a show about Jimmy Olsen before a proper Batman or Wonder Woman project? That is literally DC's Trinity they should have prioritized them right from the start, exactly like the MCU did with Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, and Thor before introducing smaller characters. Imagine if the MCU had kicked off with Guardians of the Galaxy...*
*And for people scared of change of tone it could work if we take that trilogy as an origins story from the past before Superman revealed himself to the world. Working as the last dc animated universe era who start with long Halloween to after open up to crisis on infinite earths.*
How do you guys feel about THAT ending of Episode 1? Personally I saw it coming ever since the day they dropped this first look.
David Superman & tobey Spider-Man base on that cool cover
Why David and Tobey ? Cause their my favorites versions of the characters
The DCU will likely fix one of the MCU's biggest issues
The one thing that is amazing about the DCU over the MCU is the fact that, from what we can tell so far, the DCU is willing to do something the MCU has trapped itself with for almost 2 decades now.
The MCU has no real recurring villains.
One of my favorite Avengers stories is Age of Ultron and Rage of Ultron.
The thing I love about Ultron is that he could literally always back himself up somewhere else and come back when he has the resources. And I hope they reveal one day that he has... because it would be amazing to see a real apocalypse-level multi-year spanning story where the MCU is under the rule of Ultron.
That being said, I thought of this whilst realizing that MoT will likely have Lex be a villain near the end of the film again and likely try to betray Superman at one point. This made me realize that I haven't seen a recurring villain in a Superhero movie in ages (probably the only example would be Magneto)
