BvS All Things Superman and Batman: An Open Discussion - Part 96

[Spider-Aziz]

Spoiler

I want to laugh, still not laughing

 

[DarkSentinel]

When was the last time that someone got recasted in a big role?

Katie Homes/Maggie Gyllenhaal

Also Val Kilmer/George Clooney

 

[Tv's Phil]

Alec Baldwin is in this.

According to Wikipedia if you trust it:
"On June 13, 2014 Warner Bros. announced that Alec Baldwin has been cast to play Commissioner David Corporon in the upcoming film due out May 6, 2016"

That's kinda neat. I had to Google who the character was, but still.

 

[Fumardude]

Bruce Banner/Hulk? Rachel in TDK series? ..that turned out being a win for both

 

[Tv's Phil]

You must be high AF, but whatever helps you sleep at night I guess. I'm stoked about this movie. Batman is my all time fav. & his new ride looks badass, but the lex casting is just awful :\ When he tries to act serious he seems so dull & bland imo.. They could have found someone a bit more intimidating. I guess they can always recast later if needed

A lot of us aren't expecting the Lex in that pic. We're expecting a modern, more calculating and sociopathic version to counter the brute power and relatability of Superman.

When it comes to Eisenberg as Luthor its a bit of a wildcard. Much the same as Gadot as Wonder Woman.

The source given by the Wikipedia page is IMDB so I wouldn't give that much weight to it.

You're damn right "oops" I bet you're one of those "could of, would of, should of" hooligans.

Touché.

Oh, Billy Dee/Tommy Lee...Jones

Uuhh Lex has always been crafty & smart with his plans. I think what you meant was your expecting Lex Luthor but minus his total badassery we all know & love?

Yeah I guess if it were true someone would've posted about it months ago and discussion would've existed about it.

I tend to think that Snyder would not have cast either one of those if he thought in the slightest they couldn't handle it.

 

[DA_Champion]

I though it was early to mid 40's (43-45?) Either way, definitely not 50, and none of this Urban Legend for over 30 years garbage.

If Batman can be an urban legend for 20 years he can be an urban legend for 30 years.

 

[DA_Champion]

Not gonna happen. Marvel snatched him when he was young and naive. He's stuck with Thor movies.

Idris Elba can take on another contract whenever he wants.

The real verdict will come when the movie is released in 2016 and the audience gets to decide.

Really? I'm glad you are here to tell us these things.

 

[DA_Champion]

Where did you find these? I thought that MoS was a black-and-white film.

 

[zryson]

I thought that MoS was a black-and-white film.

I hope the color is more on point this time in BvS and that the movie shelves its darker gloomier style for brighter colors.

 

[DA_Champion]

Maybe Jax-Ur would have blown up are moon too.

Nobody's done a more beautiful job of blowing up the moon than Joseph Kosinski did in Oblivion.

 

[Wise]

Touché.

Oh, Billy Dee/Tommy Lee...Jones

Billy Dee still played Dent in Forever. The makeup department just did such a good job of making him look horribly scarred that people thought Tommy Lee Jones was in the movie.

Zryson are u autistic?

For laughs, a refresher of a complaint from a few months ago, this comparison was circulated to show that Marvel films have "more colours" than WB/DC films:

I didn't want an actor who was large or brutish.

I just wanted an actor who wouldn't seem so child-like next to Cavill and Affleck.

Jason Clarke or Corey Stoll would have been the type of actor I'd have liked to see.

But alas, the role is cast and I'll just have to deal with it and hope that he pulls out something new and innovative.

WW is anything but dull but that costume does her no favors. Much in the same way as the costume for Cavill's Superman was shown in MOS to look differently depending on the light source, I hope they can do something with the color for her costume in BvS.
