All Things DCEU News, Discussion, and Speculation - Part 2

Can El Diablo be resurrected? I mean he does have that power in the comics! Maybe join the JLD because I doubt he'd return to the Squad... I'm just desperate for some Latino superheroes/villains!!

 

[dallywhitty]

El Diablo was by far my least favourite member of the squad, so I hope he stays dead.

 

[sweetre15]

Directors also must be staunch born Again Christians, with 10 adopted children all from 3rd world countries and lifetime members of the ACLU.

He was the only one I found tolerable. Hope they nuke this team and come back with completely new characters. Except Deadshot, even tho I didn't care for him, Harley, and maybe Katana since she was used as wallpaper in the first one.

I think his acting was horrible, but I felt the character itself was cool.

Id like too see him return.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

He smacked his wife's ass in front of the kid. This sort of immoral, sexist behavior is unbecoming of a Suicide Squad made of villains.

Really? Him and Katana were my favorites! I'd easily rank him higher than Rick Flagg, Killer Croc, Captain Boomerang and Slipknot.

If he's not coming back then DC better give me Blue Beetle, Jessica Cruz, Renee Montoya or Vibe! Show us Latinos some love!

Diablo and Waller
Everyone else was wallpaper.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

you know what would be really terrible? Jai Courtney's Captain Boomerang under the direction of Mel Gibson.

I'm already feeling [Triggered] and checking my privilege as we speak.

 

[BlueLanternKal]

That would be brilliant. Can you imagine an unfiltered Boomerang ripped right out the comics? It would be hysterical. He would talk **** about absolutely everyone and it would come back to bite him in the ass over and over. A racist, misogynistic beer guzzling Bogan with a penchant for armed robbery and delusions of grandeur. If "love to hate" were a term in the dictionary Digger Harkness' picture would be right next to it.

He thinks he's an Aussie James Bond. Drinks beer neither shaken or stirred.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

Mel would probably live vicariously through Boomerang and re-write all his lines himself

it would be glorious. **** it, give Mel a boomerang solo spinoff.

That sounds more interesting than half the superhero movies under consideration at any studio these days.

 

[GothamBat]

I was thinking, if they were to do a prequel Batman movie (with Affleck still on board), they really wouldn't need to do much to de-age him. The guy looks hella young. There's no need to do any digital de-aging just apply some foundation to lighten up his five o'clock shadow and maybe concealer for those slight eye bags and he's good to go. He'll look 25. If they want to go with a different actor for the prequel they could get drew roy. he's spot on as a younger affleck

 

[BH/HHH]

He does look like a young Affleck for sure. But how's his acting?

 

[GothamBat]

no clue haha.. if he's really incredibly bad then I'd be satisfied with just a cameo during a flash to Bruce's younger years as Batman

 

[Erzengel]

I’m hearing David Goyer could very well wind up directing Green Lantern Corps himself. When you look at screenwriters that are taking the plunge and directing these movies themselves, we saw rumors last month that Simon Kinberg was going to direct the next X-Men movie. David Goyer is responsible for this entire DC Universe, he wrote Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. He wrote Man of Steel, he is the architect, if you will. He is writing and producing Green Lantern Corps, so it’s just very well, what I have heard, one of those situations where he could be like ‘Listen, I think I may be the best guy for the job, nobody knows this like I do.’

 

[Jekecy]

Who's the source for that?

I've got to believe WB is smarter than this. Let's not forget Goyer's last DC project, BvS, he was unceremoniously pushed to the sidelines so they could prop up Terrio's involvement. Not only was he replaced, his entire script was rewritten.

Now I'm to believe as penance for this act, they're offering up Green Lantern as a sacrificial lamb? A property already dead in the water as far as its cinematic reputation is concerned?

 

[Boy Scout]

That'd be ****ing idiotic.

 

[Erzengel]

Who's the source for that?

On the Meet the Movie Press podcast, Jeff Sneider claimed David Goyer may direct the movie himself.

...

 

[Serpico Jones]

Edit.

 

[ManWithNoName18]

Justin Kroll has come out saying Goyer will likely only be the writer for GLC.

 

[batman44]

^the qoute

In regards to @TheInSneider "prediction", lets just say WB is perfectly happy with Goyer just writing GL

I wouldn't put it pass them to think the reason BvS didn't do better is because Goyer didn't have enough involvement. But if the rumor turns out to be true, then we will officially know TPTB at WB are stupid as f---.

 

[mat-chow]

We need less Goyer, not more. I am tired of his dialogue (generally) particularly.
