The Superhero Cinematic Civil War: The SUMC Was In The Amazon With My Mom Studying Spiders Right Before It Died - Part 61

The Mount Rushmore of Bat actors is: Bale, West, Keaton, and Pattinson. Bale is #1 for me, but everyone else is really close. Batman and Bruce Wayne are very multi-factored and different portrayals can place different emphases on the character. He’s a detective, he’s a pugilist, he’s a loner, he creates a family out of those who have no one else. He’s tough and abrasive, he’s supremely loyal and would give his life for his family.

Bruce Wayne/ Batman is an extremely complicated character, and the different emphases that different actors place on the character make it hard to define a clear #1.

Oh it's @Shinobi Shaw's greatest nightmare come true.

The only leg up I'll give Pattinson over Bale is that his and Zoe's Bruce/Selina chemistry was off the charts. Like you felt the passion between them. But that's the only main component that I'd give him the edge.

I need some more movies to properly compare, but Bale and his dynamics with Alfred, Gordon, Robin John and Joker are just unparalleled IMO.

His crazy Bats voice be damned.

It helps that Nolan's idea of romance is reciting philosophy naked and climaxing to their quotes.

Keep Elphaba and Jodie Turner Smith FAR away from Ororo.

My blood pressure can't take it.

Lupita had to get cast already.

I really did not expect Al Ewing to use the greatest spider-villain of all time in his All New Venom book. Paul.

On the plus side, he applies the appropriate contempt towards him.

The only two women, befitting of the goddess:





Feige, don’t make me choke you.

Technically, are you really recasting a character if he's the son of the previous character with the same name?

Yeah agreed, this method is not technically a recast. It’s an effective tangential solution doing something almost equivalent to what those looking for a recast wanted. ie the son would probably not even be part of the plot of BP2 if Chadwick were still around. Works fine for me if they find a multiversal way to age him up to the age he can take on the Black Panther mantle.

I kind of hope they cast an unknown actress for Ororo.

But I trust the casting either way.

DeWanda Wise was born to be Storm, i just fear she's too "old" for what they're going for. I feel like theyre going to aim for a 20-something xmen team.

Cynthia’s a bit too old for, Storm. I suppose they could use her as an older version of, Orono but, you would need a younger Storm as a counter point.

It just occured to me that even though we've been in a lull in the cbm world for a while its going to kick into SERIOUS overdrive this summer, and not just because of the movies coming out, but because casting and filming for Doomsday, Secret Wars, Spider-man 4, Supergirl, Lanterns and more will be in full effect and we'll probably be overwhelmed with stuff to talk about for a long time following that. We're in the calm before a big big storm ahead.

I fear the same.

I have said this before, but I think it's so weird when I see fans talking about 30y olds like they're too old for the X-Men. 30 is still super young, and people are looking younger and younger now.

DeWanda is now 40, and if you ask me, I think that's totally fine for Ororo. And the character doesn't have to be the same age as the actor, btw.

I think the X-Men should have different generations, but some of the main members like Storm, Cyclops and Jean should be a bit mature.

30 is perfect because is young while having some maturity.

So I finally binged Creature Commandos yesterday and while its no The Penguin, Harley Quinn or Peacemaker I did enjoy it for the most part and would watch another season.

It was honestly better than I was expecting it to be after hearing so many mixed reactions.

I am hoping Gunn hits a lot harder with Superman though because that needs to be great.

Thanks for the reminder, I totally forgot that the finale dropped yesterday.

What about this Ariana DeBose girl. She hasn't been in anything worth while.

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

Guys.

It’s a rare Saturday night where I’m in the house and I’m bored. I should be catching up on Creature Commandos but I have a mind to watch Black Adam for the second time ever.

Pray for me.

Those damn demographics are to blame.

 

[Nardz937]

Between the Sony CEO's comments on Kraven and this it's hilarious to see how arrogant these people are as to why their slop failed.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Or maybe people didn't want to see the movie cause of a mix of Ezra Miller being the star and it sucked
