If Robin shaves his legs, and wears tights, then his suit will look really good.

His legs are shaved but he has Robin Williams level arm hair.

 

[Sleiek]

he really ,really wants to talk about the movie doesn't he? It must suck to see it and not be able to talk about it. even in a non-spoilerific way.

Yeah but he saw the film a month ago. Why now?

the Batgirl paralyzing and Robin death scenes are what made it R rated i bet

 

[DeadStroke]

Amy is in GQ this month

Welp I guess Batman gif's like that aren't allowed. Sorry.

 

[Ahasverus]

I can see Robin wearing a black undersuit that covers his exposed arms and legs, that'd look cool

Yeah that's with I'm going with, something like this

Oh my god.

...

I think this is hype appropriate on the same level as Japanese porn.

 

[fake]

Because the EW BvS issue comes out this weekend.

 

[Mean Mr Mustard]

My thoughts exactly

 

[Sleiek]

Because the EW BvS issue comes out this weekend.

Then I guess it makes sense. It's must have been really hard for him to stay quiet for a month.

Yep.

Also, Anthony posted his long article and boy, do we get insight into the structure of the universe in it.

Green Lantern

Spoiler

For instance, it’s not an accident that Warner Bros. hasn’t said much about Green Lantern besides the fact that they’re planning a 2020 reboot. The character is not referenced in BvS and Silverman acknowledges, he may not turn up onscreen for a while.

“[Green Lantern] is an incredible character. He’s actually multiple incredible characters,” Silverman says. “There’s real opportunity there. We didn’t do a great job on that first Green Lantern movie. This is a character who deserves to be treated in the same way that Batman and Superman and Wonder Woman are being treated now, which is with great reverence. I guess I can say to the Green Lantern fans: if they can be patient with us, I think they’ll be really happy.”

But how patient? Rovens says we may not see Hal Jordan, John Stewart, or any incarnation of Green Lantern until Justice League – Part Two. Maybe. “Every beat of the movie is not yet worked out. So there’s the possibility that he may or may not be in Justice League 2,” the producer says. “For now, we felt that we were introducing enough characters that the best possible place we could put Green Lantern is some introduction in Justice League 2, or barring that, a movie after.”

 

[Jumpman]

We ain't getting GREEN LANTERN in JL Part 1. And maybe not Part 2...as of yet. They are still working on the details of it all.

Another trick of assembling these films is to make sure casual moviegoers are kept oriented about the timeline. So on that secret board in Snyder’s office, it’s clear: Suicide Squad takes place after the events in BvS. And the Wonder Woman movie, while largely set in 1918 during World War I, will be framed by “present day” bookends that also take place after BvS. Meanwhile, BvS includes teases about what that upcoming movie will reveal about Wonder Woman’s past.

The timeline on that board goes backward and forward.

f BvS sounds crowded, it actually got smaller as time went on. The PG-13 movie’s 2 hour 31 minute runtime will expand further with an R-rated “Ultimate Edition” on home video, featuring even more brutal fight scenes as well as additional hints at future films. There’ll also be some new characters, including a secret one played by Jena Malone, who was cut from the theatrical release. (More on the extended cut of BvS tomorrow at EW.com.)

Just a warning to those avoiding spoilers, Breznican explicitly details how Kryptonite is used against Superman; and it's something we've heard rumored before, courtesy of he-who-shall-not-be-named.

 

[DerekLake]

So. Many. Spoilers.

WW

Spoiler

Johns points to her climactic battle with Doomsday, a Kryptonian Frankenstein-monster created by Luthor from the remains of Michael Shannon’s General Zod, as one of his favorite character moments. “I love her in the movie. I love when she’s hit by Doomsday and she turns around and smiles, like she hasn’t been in a fight like this in a long, long time,” he says. “She clearly… she missed it.”

 

[Jumpman]

Ladies. Gentlemen. This brain trust ain't messing around. They've been doing a lot of hard thinking.
