Justice League Lounge of Justice - Part 83

[Black Narcissus]

I know what ya mean, brotha.

Remember this guy's infamous appearance on Collider during the BvS days?

No? What happened?

 

[Iceman]

No idea how reliable of a source this is, assuming it's reliable at all. With that in mind, Disney could do a lot worse than hire the up-and-coming director poised to reinvigorate the Transformers franchise w/ his refreshing take on Bumblebee.

EXCLUSIVE: Disney/Marvel Are Looking At Travis Knight To Direct ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy 3’

Edit: As per Umberto Gonzalez, there's no truth to the story. Make of that what you will.

Big shoes to fill and I hope Bumblebee delivers on the promise of its trailer. I would love for Guardians to continue without missing a beat and help push the MCU’s cosmic side with Cap Marvel, Eternals and other upcoming projects (hopefully F4).

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

No? What happened?

Nothing too crazy. Let's just say articulacy isn't his strong point. lol Also, he referred to BvS as having "shades of white power." I can't post the video here, though, as it contains an F-bomb (courtesy of the late Jon Schnepp). Just google 'Adi Shankar Cut Collider.'

I have a feeling it will, and I say that as someone who was never big on the live-action Transformers movies to begin with. This one appears to better capture the essence of the Generation One line.

Yeah, I'm curious how Marvel goes about addressing Drax's absence. I'm sure, that prior to whole Gunn fiasco, they were planning on his eventual return to the land of the living; but given the status quo, it might behoove all parties concerned to leave him dead now. lol

 

[MbJ]

Drax would presumably be one of the easier characters to recast given all the body paint and skin prosthetics.

Yeah, I didn't even think of that. Good call.

 

[Da-Scribe]

Eh, I do think BvS had a white power thing going on. I always thought it was intentional though and cast in a clear negative light.

I’ve had a few whiskeys though so don’t mind me.

Also a close friend of mine has a single roommate that looks just like Gal Gadot. Ima ruin this friendship fam.

Poll: Should Jason Todd Live or Die?

So, DC Universe held a poll over Jason Todd's life.
A nod to the history I guess.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Now I'm motivated.

I love the old anime series, another one is another treasure for me.

I saw it as a pent-up conflict between two sides, an age-old social hierarchy (represented by Lex, Bruce, et al.) and a more current cultural diffusion embodied in Superman, the ultimate immigrant if you will. Perhaps that's what Shankar was trying to get at. The thing is, BvS's whole message acts as a warning against those who would seek to stoke division/sow discord through the agency of disinformation and what have you. It's not as if the filmmakers were encouraging that kind of behavior, which is how this guy made it sound. lol

Whatever the case, you've got to see the original episode in its entirety to appreciate just how awkward that exchange was, not just because of the BvS stuff, mind you.

Given the circumstance, I'm sure your friend will understand. If not...

*Superman's pain face*.....or he has to die

I think it is time.

For me

I want a recast and a character reboot, which is never not the case. RIP comic relief

 

[harlequinade]

A fangirl watches.

A fangirl doesn't judge.

Fangirl's love knows no boundaries lol

 

[KalvinEllis]

Shankar will do justice to the franchise. The first image he put on IG was of DMC3 Dante, so I wonder if I should get my hopes up for the dopest scene of the series to make it on the show.

Stink hits darts grand slam as match features flatulent end

I’m optimistic for it, and I was pretty much done with Transformers films otherwise. It’s a shame as I liked Batista as Drax but I wouldn’t have been surprised if Avengers had been his natural end given how his storyline was all about avenging his family against Thanos.

 

[kguillou]

Happy 17th guys.

17 years from the release of the JL animated series. Good times.

Maybe it's been bought up, i haven't scrolled back and checked... Ezra Miller, his recent costumes/outfits on the red carpet, latest playboy mag interview and images... you think it'll make no difference on him being/staying as the flash or it will? Let's try and think of the broader picture - will DC exec's be happy, not bothered or wondering what step to take.

Personally, i feel it may alienate some audiences but also bring in others - sometimes it's difficult for some to seperate the art from the artist, others want the actor to embody the character. For me, it's bold.... but, then, it's Ezra, would you expect anything different (albiet maybe not quite that level - looking at you, darth vadar jacket lol).

I don't think he is right for the role of Barry Allen, however, he could have been an awesome Dick Grayson... but, that's a whole other thread.

But why would that bother you or anyone?
