Quick question for everyone here…

Since we’ve had so many superhero movies over the past couple decades now and we’ve seen so many versions of these characters on the big screen, who are the new ones you’re excited to see now? And when I say new, I’m talking about characters who haven’t been featured in a live action film yet. Maybe they’ve been in a TV series or appeared in animation. But for me personally (and I think for a lot of us) there is something particularly exciting about seeing the big budget movie versions of these characters. So when it finally happens, it’s pretty amazing (hopefully).

Anyone who has been hanging out in the Superman forums probably knows that for me, the ONLY character I care about (finally) seeing is Brainiac and since we are hopefully getting him, Man of Tomorrow is at the top of my list right now.

What about all of you? I’m not familiar with Mr. Negative at all; is he a character people are hyped over? I imagine a lot of DC fans are hyped to see Lobo too. I’m not a big Lobo guy but I am absolutely a big Momoa as Lobo guy (that might be the most spot on casting in all of superhero cinema).

If the rumors are true and Zatanna might be in Clayface , that would be really awesome to see.

Oh really? I hadn’t heard that rumor. Any casting rumors?

James Gunn Downplays What Those Clayface Set Photos Suggest About the DCU's Gotham City - IGN

Over the past few weeks, photos from the Liverpool shooting locations of Clayface have been all over social media, providing glimpses of the first Gotham City to be depicted in the DCU. But when IGN spoke to DC Studios co-chief James Gunn on Friday, he downplayed the significance of what those...

www.ign.com

IGN: We're getting our first look at the DCU's Gotham City in Clayface, and there's a ton of those little Easter eggs in the set photos. How canon is some of that stuff? Like there's a mention of Joker, there's a Penguin Man poster. Should we take that background stuff as anything more than just background stuff?

James Gunn: You really have to take it as something that an art department put together because I never... First of all, there's a couple of things that I don't even think were on the set, like that bat insignia. I think somebody put that there afterwards. But I haven't seen all those things, but they weren't something that came across my desk.

James Gunn Teases Some ‘Peacemaker’ Characters “Will Continue” In Another DC Series: “It’s Not Exactly ‘Peacemaker 3′”. New Update On ‘The Authority’

James Gunn talks episode 6 season 2, whether or not there's a 'Peacemaker' season 3 and provides update on authority

deadline.com

Gunn: “I’m probably not going to do certain movies with characters who (audiences) don’t know; it’s harder to get people in the theater for that kind of thing.”

If you go the IMDB page for Clayface there's an actress named Jessica Grundle with an unspecified role and there are rumors she may be Zatanna.

Interesting, thanks!

Gunn's downplaying any wider DC connections to Clayface.

I will note Clayface was a significant part of the latest Zatanna comic series by Jamal Campbell. Whether that was just for synergistic reasons for mainly that one character or anything more than that who can say yet.

Sorry… what exactly is the deal with Psylocke now?

British woman mind swapped with a Japanese woman assuming each other's identities.

Huh.

It’s now occurring to me that it’s been sooooo long since I read an X-Men comic I have no idea what’s been going on with them since like… Age of Apocalypse maybe? Damn.

Says the guy who bought Superman on digital.

But seriously, I'm looking forward to Peacemaker wrapping up to get a break from Gunn for a bit. He's been overexposed all summer.

Meanwhile I'm still waiting on my 4K copy because Amazon doesn't have their **** together. Not like I'm in a rush since it's on HBO Max but I really miss being able to walk into a Best Buy and buying a Blu-ray.

Seriously.

It is really crazy that we cannot go to the store and find physical media anymore. What the hell is the world coming to?

At least there's still Wal-Mart and Barnes and Noble but there's a catch to it because there aren't really any Wal-Marts by me and B&N has a more limited selection.

It's so sad, I couldn't even tell you the last time I visited a B&N. I used to frequent the one on Fifth Avenue before it shut down. There was another huge one downtown Brooklyn but that's closed too.

Ugh.

Yes the Psylocke movie should be the Face Off reboot.

[Shinobi Shaw]

On the Psylocke front, all I know is that one woman better play her in the MCU:



And be quick about it before Gunn casts her in the DCU as someone we've all never heard of.

My 4K steelbook finally arrived yesterday.

…but still gives her more to do than MCU Psylocke.

Betsy Braddock and Kwannon switch bodies, so the sexy Japanese Psylocke is Kwannon with Betsy's mind. You can see why she was a mute in X-Men Apocalypse.
