Wouldn't hurt to watch Captain Marvel as well, if only, for the connection to one of the main characters on the show.

First 2 episodes were not particularly watchable for me, but 3 and 4 saved my interest completely.

Can’t believe they used the We Live In a Society meme rofl

I’m sold but doubt anything else in the film will be that self aware

I doubt the film is THAT different tbh. I mean no new scenes were shot or anything. It's just a massive edit-fest

Still can't be worse than the original shite. Hopefully Snyder removed all the Whedon humour

My all time favourite comic

Watched Justice league: The snyder cut

it's so much superior that it's not even funny. It's a completely different film. Glad all the whedon cringe was taken off it.

Still not an amazing film but a good one. Coherent watch if anything.

One of the most tedious films I've ever seen, and the dumbest possibly fan service ever with Martian Manhunter.

I liked it aswell. Made me forget about the garbage version we got years ago.

What’s next for DC universe? Did Affleck & Cavill retire?

Flash is gonna reset everything with Flashpoint. And then they're gonna make standalone movies for some time before venturing into team up movies again.

Suicide Squad
Flash
Shazam
Black Adam
Batman
Aquaman 2

That's what's upcoming I think.

Snyder cut was satisfying.

Now I kinda want to see Josh Trank's cut of Fantastic Four, before the studio got a hold of it. I doubt that will happen though.

That scene made no sense lmao. Neither did the end one. I mean they will need to come up with a good explanation as why he didn't help out the JL during the invasion...

Bruce's dream absolutely needs to be a standalone film itself. It's basically injustice: Gods Among Us which i hope is made into a film at some point.

Our first trailer. Warning: gore & adult language & supervillains & adventure & heart. Can't wait to see it in a theater with all of you on August 6. #TheSuicideSquad pic.twitter.com/HdqlGVP0lB

No. Completely new film. soft reboot

by McLewis Fri Mar 26, 2021 6:39 pm

Looks decent. Nothing more than that imo.

Yea popcorn flick at this time judging by the trailer. But i imagine Gunn has saved the best for the film and hasn't given much away in the trailer.

Loki is outstanding so far. Can shape up to be the best MCU show so far.

Confirmed after last night's finale. Loki landed the ending better than most sci-fi/superhero shows can, and did it with such huge concepts as well.

Ridiculously grand in scale yet written so tightly with such good performances that it still feels personal. Tom Hiddleston, Owen Wilson, and other actors, better omitted to not spoil it, gave top performances.

Also, for anyone watching MCU movies, this is the show to watch to understand the future movies. Wandavision and F&WS while important for these characters, and some consequences for the world, can be quite "isolated" shows. Loki on the other hand is required viewing.

Just watched The Suicide Squad in IMAX.

It's good. Definitely a james gunn film but felt like a knock off version of it. Entertaining but no wow factor. Noway near GOTG level.

Miles better than the original suicide squad obviously. Cena was amazing.

Also Harley quinn is such a shit character. Way overexposed.

by McLewis Tue Aug 24, 2021 2:44 pm

Harley Quinn is loads better in the cartoon HBO Max made about her. That's where she shines. What WB are doing with her feels a lot like what Sony did with J-Law's Mystique in the X-Men movies. Pushing a minor supervillain right into the spotlight and making her the hero of the story / main attraction.

Such a weird thing to do. It's not bad or good. It's just weird.

by McLewis Tue Aug 24, 2021 2:45 pm

In other news:

Goddamn, they're actually doing it. This should be quite a nostalgia treat.
