BvS All Things Superman and Batman: An Open Discussion - Part 83

[DarthSkywalker]

"Not in shape."

This is what we got in Thor and you're complaining about how Gal looks in the new photo?!?

Do you have a reading comprehension problem? At what point did I complain? I said I like Gal. I think she looks good. I am not complaining. I am pointing out that there are other good actresses out there, with a more "superhero" body type. So please read before you start accusing.

And you do realize that is photoshopped pic right? Second she looks fantastic on film, standing next to Hemsworth. Though in TDW, she had a few problems, including an injury where she hurt her spine. So she wasn't exactly in Thor shape.

 

[D.P.]

lolwut @ this Goopy Snake character.

You're new around these parts and already making a bad impression.

There are people who are optimistic about this film. Deal with it.

There are people who are pessimistic about this film. I deal just fine.

In fact, they've been posting their displeasure with aspects of this production long before you decided to show up because of the SDCC buzz.

We've all gotten along fine, disagreements aside. You're welcome to head over to the dread thread if you can't handle positivity.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I do. She still can tone. She is essentially building from scratch.

My original point was this:

There aren't any actresses on the current landscape that can physically look like the WW from the comics at this point in time. The look in the comic books is overexaggerated and works within that world, but it's very hard to achieve and is unrealistic for a woman who hasn't already integrated weight training into their everyday life.

So I posed the question to those who want something better...find it and post it.

Olga and Jaimie aren't that toned that they simply blow Gal at out the water. There's barely that much of a notable difference, if there is any at all.

I do not want to go where this is clearly headed, so lets just agree to disagree on certain things. I do agree that there is no "Wonder Woman" out there in the "real world". At least not in terms of an actress I have seen. I am very happy with Gal and think there is every possibility she owns the role.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

No, prior to Gal. I knew when I saw Gal's body type that she would never be able to achieve the necessary look. Previously, I never thought that finding an actress with a muscular build was difficult. Strength building is more prevalent among women today, and I can think of several women at my gym (which isn't particularly large) who have a Wonder Woman type of build.

Choosing Gal told me that Wondy's appearance wasn't important in the way it should have been. I was hoping Gal might surprise me and put on some muscle, and maybe she is trying, but she still looks really thin.

So basically you are complaining to complain at this point?

That's absolutely fine.

(Take note, this is how you have civil discussions folks.)

Her legs are very sexy and feminine. WW doesn't have to be a bodybuilder to be powerful

Bodybuilder WW? I don't think so. Give that to either Power Girl or She-Hulk.

Gal is looking great in that pic as WW and I wouldn't mind getting press slammed by her. t:

Thanks to a few certain members of this board, you know who you are. I was able to see the leaked footage, holy ****ing ****. Holy. ****ing. ****. God damn that footage. And the music. Made me cry, tears of joy. I am watching it non stop, god damn. GOD DAMN. Is this real life? Somebody please hold me.

Yep. It's happening. It's real.

I've been waiting for this most of my natural life.

I don't know what to do with this. This is the Hype. You and I should totally get to the point where a Mod has to show up and tell us to knock out it off before infractions start happening. t:

You don't think they'd atleast try to do that next to Batman and Superman?

Oh and here's Sif from the first Thor. She's basically the same person. I'm starting to think you're complaining for the sake of complaining.

Do you know what complaining is? Seriously? When did I say a bad thing about Gal or how she looks?

 

[Steelsheen]

I wonder if there's any significance in the different motifs that are presented in each of the trinity's solo pictures. With Batman, it's "Smoke"....Superman, it's "Rain"....and Wonder Woman, it's "fire".

hmm....

smoke= air
rain= water
fire (obviously)

the 4 major elements? the only thing missing is earth. although arguable you can say WW is earth given her poster. but yeah red/ copper motif-- most likely fire.

there was a comics series of the Trinity that had something to do with the elements i think. started out with a Tarot reader they had to save or something, i have the comics somewhere around here...

Think you're looking way too much into things with the whole elements stuff. Wayyyyy too much.

That's what the Hype's about. t:

 

[matt47]

Damn, just watched them all on the stage again and I have to say, Zack is looking pretty big too!

 

[TheNextNolan22]

It's 2 in the morning and we're about to hit part 84! Cray cray!

 

[Kane52630]

Fanboy mentality:

Guys, stop making excuses. Just stop. It's not cool.

ah the fanboy mentality.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

It's 2 in the morning and we're about to hit part 84! Cray cray!

And we're still a little less than 2 years away

Movie is gonna break all sorts of records

 

[craigdbfan]

By the time it's all said and done I have a feeling we'll be up to part 500. Real talk.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

So I see dat Batman V. Superman teaser has leaked.

Thoughts? Nothing?

 

[D.P.]

By the time it's all said and done I have a feeling we'll be up to part 500. Real talk.

I could easily see that.

So I see dat Batman V. Superman teaser has leaked.

Thoughts? Nothing?

Well, I've been marking out all day since it's leaked. I'm pretty worn out at this point.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Just the Batman V. Superman and AOU teasers alone made this a successful first Comic-Con. Bruh, I don't even wanna imagine what next year will bring.

You know I wasn't a fan of them going full on versus and making Bats and Supes duke it out. But after watching that grainy cam footage, I'm salivating at the thought of it.
