    God I hope this is good. Heard some less than charitable rumors, tho. But it has a flat-out gorgeous look to it. DC, help us out here--at least give us something competent, something to work with.

    The thing that I heard through the grapevine that really cheeses my griddle is that they apparently deliberately go out and shoot these films with scripts they know are incomplete and then think they can go back during reshoots and "fix" the story (which is really just them papering over problems, because you gotta solve that shit at the start). Apparently this also happens with Marvel, but they're better at knowing what they want.

    Yeh I heard the rumors too, but these trailers do a good job of hiding whatever discombobulation is there. We know that, because the BvS trailer also looked this way.

    Welp. Whatever happens, at least we got her a pretty good theme song.

    The thing in the trailer about hiding what she really is makes me think they're going with her New 52 demigod origin instead of her classic clay origin. I pout.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    What theme? The vaguely ethnic melody from the logo reveal? Yeah, I don't get the love for that.

    Vaguely ethnic? Wha? Electric guitar from Themyscira? Or the actress from Israel?

    Either way I'm confused.

    Ugh I hate her BvS theme so much. I physically cringe every time I hear it. I was pretty into the trailer and then it hit and my whole being just went, "nooo.. aagh, don't ruin it!!"

    It's a very solid, good-looking trailer but I'm weirdly more worried about it than ever because it's still not giving us any idea what it's actually about and I doubt it's out of fear of giving anything good away.

    Hmm. It seems we were too quick to judge on this one. Ben Affleck reveals he checked into rehab for alcohol addition, partly the reason why he stepped down from directing Batman.

    Nothing now since the entire script is being re-written. Who knows if Deadshot will even be in it at this point.

    I know, that's why I'm wondering. Must suck to score the villain role in a Batman movie and then told to sit around in limbo not knowing if he's still gonna be in the movie.

    I'm honestly scared that they're gonna go, "Hey, copying Marvel hasn't worked out. Let's copy Fox!" And then they give Zack Snyder carte blanche to make edgy R-rated movies with the Flash doing this in lightspeed:

    Lego Batman 2 should totally have a Deathstroke cameo voiced by Manganiello.
