    Anyone else feel that Bosslogic has become the sort of sneaky, testing-the-waters, putting-feelers-out-there way for studios to take the temperature of people's reactions to things like, sayyyy, casting the next Bruce Wayne/Batman? Maybe I'm cynical as hell, but he seems to post awfully coincidental what-ifs sometimes. I have to wonder if studios are nudging him in certain directions to gauge reactions, or if it's happening naturally.

    I'd be surprised if you hadn't seen his fanart around the internet. His work's pretty pervasive. And he does come up with some good stuff. But I wonder haha....

    Among millennials!? It's been proven they won't buy movie tickets unless they see Elon Musk in their avocado toast.

    I love how DC just finished telling everyone how they’re putting the DCEU on the back burner to focus on solo films, and now they’re all like,

    “Aquaman was a hit! So here’s an idea...an Aquaman cinematic universe!!!”

    I like this character a fair bit but have some reservations about Levi.

    As with other recent DC offers, "Justice League Unlimited" did a good coupla arcs with the character back in the day. I think it'd be hard to top that.

    I try not to pay too much attention to early reactions to films because it's usually fluff from target demo, but Shazam seems to have screened rather early, no? I take that as a better sign than even what the talking heads are saying, at least as far as studio confidence.

    Now this is a throwback lol:

    Zack Snyder Defends Batman Killing People in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice': 'Wake the F**k Up'

    "Someone says to me: Batman killed a guy. I'm like, f**k, really?," Snyder said, per Comic Book. "Wake the f**k up! I guess that's what I'm saying. Once you lost your virginity to this fucking movie and then you come and say to me something about like 'my superhero wouldn’t do that.' I'm like 'Are you serious?' I'm like down the f**king road on that. It's a cool point of view to be like 'my heroes are innocent'…That's cool. But you're living in a f**king dream world."
    My mental image of him saying that:

    Midnight Run (1988) - 9
    The Smiling Lieutenant (1931) - 8.5
    The Adventures of Robinhood (1938) - 8
    Sisters (1973) - 6.5
    Shin Godzilla (2016) - 7.5

    Yeh I read that. I kinda get it though- like maybe this version of Batman was so scarred by the Man of Steel events that it forced him to resort to that kind of violence? Combine that with the ambiguity of the Dark Knight Returns comic. I just wish he wasn't so flippant about it.

    Agree. Although I felt it wasnt very ambiguious in the comic. Felt like he killed people for sure. Even then he was only flippant about crippling people, not killing.

    Reminder: While I defend BvS, I've always been clear I don't like him killing. Thats not Batman...until hes like really old, 60s+. I also dont like all the guns!

    I think scared is entirely valid as well. Alfred said as much in the Batcave. I understand Batman having those motivations. Mowing down random henchmen in a hail of gatling gun spray not so much.

    is this the thread for the Phoenix Joker movie?

    Footage has been shown at Cinemacon. Apparently, it's like Taxi Driver and Requiem for a Dream.
