Batman

Until he opens his mouth. Afflecks best performance Terrence Malick's To The Wonder. Ben has virtually no dialogue. BTW in typical Malick fashion To The Wonder is visually stunning.

I thought that was everyone's concern It seems to be the tag line that follows many "I'm really looking forward to this but…"

@jdl1279:

Wow, really looks like Miller's Batman from this shot.

You think? I think it looks like it's been lifted straight from the Arkham game series.

Jeff, I expect it will be a very visual movie particularly in terms of the Batman involvement. Really not expecting much dialogue from Affleck.

[jdl1279]

I can see the comparison, maybe a mash up of the two is a better way to describe it?

[Megatron1505]

This is the one I was thinking of….

[urbanwoodsman]

Lightened version.

[jdl1279]

For what I can see, still looks like a mash up to me. That's probably one of the better cowls I've seen in a movie though.

[pillowPANTS]

He looks pretty Batass to me I can see the "mash-up" thought because of the shorter ears on the cowl and the lighter, plainish torso.

Also, not trully Batman but…....

Looks like it could be good

[jdl1279]

It's the ears/cowl shape and the chest emblem size/shape. With the lighter pic I can see the lines that brought the Arkham games to mind as well. At least this one is starting with a good first visual impression, I was two movies deep and Nolan's still looked funny to me.

Found Allie's first, now Cody's first…

^ Cute, my attic is also known as the Batman room, at last count Tommy had 119 individual Batmobile toys.

On the costume thing, take a look at the artwork in the TPB "Hush", looks pretty similar.

Not official, but I thought that this is pretty cool.

For anyone interested, and who has been living in a cave, the Batman Vs Superman movie is not what it is being marketed as….i.e it isn't Batman Vs Superman.

DC are working hard, but not particularly secretly, to make a JLA movie to rival Marvels Avengers....but for some reason they don't want to just come out and say it. So far there are confirmed appearances for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Aquaman and this morning it appears that The Flash has also been cast. So now we just await Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter and we're good to go.

Pretty sure Ryan Reynolds is available, so Green Lantern is covered.  Right?

Too bad Carl Lumbly is a bit old to do MM on screen…

[Megatron1505]

The biggest current DC surprise has to be Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson playing either Captain Marvel or Black Adam in an upcoming movie.

[Graeme]

Reynolds as Deadpool, in case you've been living under a rock for the last few months.

@Megatron1505:

The biggest current DC surprise has to be Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson playing either SHAZAM or Black Adam in an upcoming movie.

Would be surprised if it is a Captain Marvel film as Marvel Comics and DC have been in a long-standing trademark dispute over the name.

[Megatron1505]

Shazam is the wizard who gave Billy Batson his powers in current continuity, Captain Marvel is the hero. I thought this one was nailed years ago before Alex Ross and Mark Waid did Kingdom Come?
