The Justice League General & Speculation Discussion Thread - Part 9

[Da-Scribe]

I imagine how many amazing photos Zack probably has on his phone...damn.

And I pray you never find out. You'd fap yourself into oblivion.

 

[Boom]

Didn't Snyder post an image of a Batman toy/statue before?

It's definitely not the JL batsuit, but the brow of the mask doesn't look like JL or BvS.

 

[Greens]

It's the one Batfleck wears to his kids' school.

 

[Polux]

For now I'll stick to my 3rd suit (as in the cutout) theory.

Although, wouldn't it be awesome if even at the beginning of the movie we see that Bats has different suits for different occasions??

 

[Thome216]

Maybe we'll see Gal's hairless pits again and another SJW rant will ensue. To tell you the truth I'm surprised I haven't seen any complaints about her "skirt " being too short.

Why complain about perfection..?

I regret nothing.

Zack also posts a lot of old photos on his Vero. That could be an old suit used for costume tests.

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

This could be me, but it doesn't look like the BvS nor the JL costume to me; maybe it is from Ben's screentest?? Or *putting on tinfoil hat* maybe there is a THIRD JL costume??!!

I remember that picture of Cav-El posing with the kids and the other leaguers cutouts, and thinking that Batman's costume there also looked different to the other ones we've seen, and this one reminds me of that one...

Or it could be all in my head, of course.

EDIT: This one, perhaps....??

The dim lighting makes it difficult to know for sure, but I agree: it looks like an early prototype of the BvS suit.

Costume test photo, before final tweaks in the suit. Eyebrows were dialed back a bit. Those extra lines above the eyes give it a real DKR vibe

Justice League 2 then

Or a solo movie :

Spoiler

I would kill for a somewhat low key Martian Manhunter movie, following him as he investigates some kind of crime while pondering philosophical matters about the nature of humanity. Throughout it there are moments where, contrasting with the somewhat hard-boiled tone, he completely defuses various problems through the application of powers that are, in a private detective context, totally OCP. This factors into his musings, as part of them is about what his relationship with humanity means.

And then, towards the end, as the depths of the mystery get darker and more dangerous? J'onn casts aside the facade, and confronts the evil not as the superpowered detective, but as the terrifying eldritch alien demigod. Because at the core of his philosophical quandary is the truth, that he is truly other. But that is ultimately okay, because his disguise is not a lie to humanity, but an outstretched hand. He lives as a human, seeks to understand humanity, because he genuinely wishes to bridge that gap.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more unlikely a third JL suit seem, so I think the suit is the same as the one in the cutout, and they're both an early BvS prototype (in the same cutout picture, you see Superman and WW being from MoS and BvS respectively, and Flash looks like a more streamlined, "concept art" version of the suit we've seen; also I REALLY like how Cyborg looks there)

 

[metaphysician]

A poncy university term for sure, but the idea that women are framed for the benefit of male pleasure a great deal of the time in movies is a valid and obvious one. As is the fact that Diana is not framed in that way... which is a very good thing.

Also important for contrasting with the reverse, "female gaze". Which is something rarely seen, and when it is, often gets bad reactions from the men in the audience.

 

[BaneandDawn]

BvS or JL?

Reminds me of Alex Ross Batman paintings.

 

[Benal]

The thing I love about Zack Snyder movies is production value. Clay Enos and him are part of it. Every shot of the costume this man posts on social media will trend, because so much thought&work was put into those suits. They're special and seeing them with different lighting and angles will never get old.

 

[metaphysician]

It's just another term that makes men sound like predatory apes.

"Predatory ape" aptly describes a whole bunch of the easier 'failure states' that men can fall into.

Are you referring to the requisite superhero shirtless scene?

 

[Black Narcissus]

Bless papa Snyder for this sexist shot.

 

[Polux]

#NeverForget

 

[Thome216]

IIRC, that scene was described by Geoff Johns or Zack Snyder a while ago, but I am not sure.

And the shot of Flash tipping the sword to WW or whatever is also in last leak and I don't remember ever seeing that in a promo, so it's just someone borrowing from other...creative mind here.

EDIT: I was wrong, it wasn't described by these guys, but it was in footages shown to some selected journalists

https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2017/03/...r-woman-and-aquaman-hits-all-the-right-notes/

After reading that part of the article, I can't wait to see that on screen!

 

[Travesty]

Ha, that hair.

Right?! And its not just Batman, ALL of the leaguers look stunning and every new pic of them that emerges makes them look epic like they should and people go crazy.

I sometimes wonder what Zack and his team could do with X-MEN.

 

[Tra-El]

BvS or JL?

JEEZ!

 

[THE WOLF]

Wonder where he's at in that pic

What's great about many of the reactions I've seen from men is that they're genuinely praising Wonder Woman, even in some quarters hailing it as one of their favourite CBMs. Yet with none of the objectification and also wanting Patty Jenkins to handle such a character as Superman. Things are looking up .
