BvS The Unabashed SPOILER Thread. ENTER AT OWN RISK. - Part 2

[John Locke]

I wouldn't be surprised if JL opens with Superman's rebirth.

 

[Rapunzel]

Yeah, I doubt he'd be missing any longer than Jean Grey (to continue my X-men comparison)

Snyder loves time skips too....i can see them just starting JL with the team already working.

I sort of hope the squabbles are minimal for the JL---save that for the Avengers. There's larger things at play to create drama than the old trope of learning to play nice together.

 

[ManWithNoName18]

I think it was one of the original 'reddit synopsis leaks' on r/movies
we should make a catalogue of all those people

 

[LEVITIKUZ]

I will say, how they use the Flash in BvS based off the spoilers is so ****ing creative. It's something that not only works but if you are a fan of the CW Flash, you will know it makes sense Flash can do that.

Flash giving Bruce the Knightmare is ****ing brilliant. Just brilliant IMO. I still don't see why Aquaman's in the film LMFAO but I see why Flash fits and makes perfect sense.

 

[ManWithNoName18]

Also that Bootleg lists Joe Morton, (I best know him as Miles Dyson from T2) as Silas Stone

 

[the5timechamp]

Do they do the early DBZ/Age of Ultron bit where they go out of their way to state that the fights are taking place in empty totally evacuated locales?
Maybe a Deus Ex Machina hellicarrier pops up to save the villagers?

 

[Chip Chipperson]

any truth to the Highball/Amboyer stuff?

I never was on board with that theory but who knows at this point

 

[Rapunzel]

Yeah, I think a major part of JL will be trying to figure that Knightmare out....

Bruce meets flash and realizes he was the dude from the vision. Then works to figure out what the vision means. And if Lex indeed mentions that "he" is coming, the JL is gonna be all over tracking him down. Plenty of routes that allow the league members to shine...

So far just one guy on DCEUleaks said he recalled the character go by the name highball.

I kind of hope that the group isn't officially together until Superman is back because there's no point in superman joining the group if the group can already exist and function without him.

I mean Snyder supposedly said that the JL can't even exist without Superman.

Plus, I'd like to think that Cavill's comments on Kimmel, regarding Superman and Batman arguing over who the leader of the group is, means that Superman will be there long enough to even have a say in that matter.

 

[LEVITIKUZ]

I remember Terrio talking BvS being the Empire Strikes Back of DC and JL1 the Return of the Jedi.

I guess if Superman dies, that means he has Han Solo's role.

Now thinking about it (not sure if true, just a theory since it's based off the comic storyline and could happen) we could see both Superman and Captain America die this year. That's kinda depressing. I mean Bucky may become the new Cap but having Supers and Steve both die. Both DC and Marvel's big blue boy scouts.

 

[TX85]

Superman's death and return alone will be one of the factors in the anticipation for JL news,marketing and rumors to figure out how early Superman returns and if Darkseid is invovled.

 

[Herolee10]

Just wondering though, but by wasn't Wonder Woman or Batman (in his mech suit) able to use the Kryptonite spear instead?

 

[Wolfgangamadeus]

This is a great question. Would make sense for WW to do it as she would not be affected by the kryptonite correct?

 

[Chip Chipperson]

i hope he comes back wearing a black suit and a glorious mullet

long live the 90's

 

[Rapunzel]

Just wondering though, but by wasn't Wonder Woman or Batman (in his mech suit) able to use the Kryptonite spear instead?

Think the mechsuit is busted by that point. And WW probably just isn't close enough to grab the spear. It sounds like a spur of the moment decision. And Supes of course feels responsible for DD, and wouldn't let WW die.

 

[Ninjablade]

I believe it's because they're trying to lure Doomsday to it. I assume Diana can't fly, so that leaves Superman to retrieve it, as I think someone said the fight doesn't originally take place near Batman and Superman fight, where they left the spear.

I'll agree with that, I'm betting Batman and Wonder Woman will try to get the team together after Batman finds everyone but issues will have them clash like in Avengers until Superman returns and leads the group in the way Cap did in Avengers.

I believe Superman will return early in the film but the JL won't be a true team until the third act when Superman is ready and inspires the team to work togethe.r

I don't agree (you do realize that sort of goes against the comics, right?).

League has functioned without Superman (same goes for Bats, WW, GL). It's not like any one member is absolutely necessary for the League.

If they go that route, it makes Superman more important than the other Leaguers (as a fan of Superman, I get where you are coming from. But, I am also a fan of the other Leaguers - and one thing I love about the League is everyone is equally important).

It parallels Arthur's round table of Knights.

I'm not saying that Superman should be the end all be all of the group, but I want him (if its' even possible at this point) to have a part in its formation.

Wouldn't be fair if Batman is the only person responsible for bringing the group together, leading them, and making them work as a unit.

 

[Knight-Tale]

Batman as a franchise very rarely exposes on martha wayne
So its nice to see her evoke such a reaction from Bruce

 

[TX85]

Agreed

Sure, just like everyone else.

Yeah, I don't want that either. And hopefully, Snyder/Terrio doesn't do that - everyone in the League should be treated equally.

Great point. I've always felt she never received her due attention.

 

[Herolee10]

Well I hope Terrio was being honest when he said about potentially making things more lighter in JL.

MOS and seemingly BvS seem to be way too serious (but rightfully so) so I hope the inclusions of Flash and Cyborg makes things a bit more easygoing.

And the bright side is, we only have to wait till next year to see the results.
