HUMOR: Relaxed Queen by AldebaranTauro in DC_Cinematic

After what she did to Johnny Depp, she is not worthy to be called a queen

There is no mask, he gets a tattoo that literally says "mask" across his forehead.

DISCUSSION: With Shazam right around the corner, I’m surprised there has only been the one trailer. by wolffy88 in DC_Cinematic

[–]WarlockSandwiches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I found a couple videos for you to give you a little backstory on Shazam/Captain Marvel:

Shazam in a Justice League meeting

Superman vs. Shazam

Wonder Woman vs. Shazam

Uncle Dudley

EDIT: Thanks for the gold! Totally unnecessary, but thanks. I empathize with not having the time for comics. I've started getting into them only recently after having grown up watching a lot comic book media, mainly animated shows like Batman, JLU, and Young Justice. Just finding a place to start with comics takes a lot of time and research due to all the timelines, resets, arcs, runs, etc.

Now imagine getting a solid contract deal with box office steroids, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

Now imagine doing nothing with that for 5+ years.

DISCUSSION: Zack Snyder's View of Superman by Caped_Crusader89 in DC_Cinematic

[–]TheBatSkeptic"Men Are Still Good." 29 points30 points 2 (0 children)

Not only is your comment condescending, it's blatantly incorrect if you bother to do the slightest amount of research. All of the following are quotes from Zack:

"That's really what it's all about to me, I want the audience to think 'What would I do if I was Superman?, and have him do something and they'd think 'Yea, that's right, I get that, that's how I feel', rather than 'Oh I'm just some God floating above you and telling you maybe I'll help you and maybe I won't.'"

"He's more human than human because of the fact that he's an alien."

"Superman is kind of a first responder. He's a volunteer. He doesn't look for any kind of praise. He's just looking to help as best as he can."

"It's[Man of Steel] about hope symbolized in the idea that every human being has a force for good inside of them and that they can do good. It's not just about Superman, it's about all of us, and if there's any message to be taken away from the movie it's that we're all him."

"Someone asked me once, 'Do you think that Superman is out of date because he's too good?' and I said 'Really? Have we gotten to the point where it's uncool to be good? Is that true? Because if it is, it's bad and we went too far.' And I think that's what Superman is, he's a total volunteer, like 'I just want to help and you don't even know who I am, I'm not even from your planet, but I'm going to help" and that's what's strong about the character."

DISCUSSION: I really hope Matt Reeves respects the monster like appearance Snyder established for Batman in DCEU. by kevvinfeige in DC_Cinematic

[–]ojcoolj 9 points10 points  (0 children)

reads as more hate because it’s a Snyder film

Or maybe it's because it's commonly regarded as not being a good film? Like, the writing wasn't even Snyder's part, if he wanted to hate on Snyder (by... saying... he didn't like a critically panned movie... clearly a nefarious mastermind) he'd stick to calling the direction bad.

He didn’t provide how he’d make the characterization better

Did he really need to? Surely the flaws of the film have been discussed ad nauseum for the past three fucking years. If something gets a 27% on Rotten Tomatoes, it should not be this controversial to say "I didn't like it". If you want discussion, have discussion, not a petty dig at people that disliked a movie that is generally disliked.

At this point can you not just admit that you disagree with the public consensus and that most people have serious issues with Batman v Superman?

I asked him for details

No, you passive-aggressively said "You couldn't do any better, if you even tried it would be fan-fiction quality". Nobody is saying that they personally could do a better job of it. Just that... better people could do a better job of it. How about you tell me a film you dislike, and I'll make you feel dumb for not being able to produce Oscar gold off the bat.

you can’t allow filmmakers to try to achieve anything beyond “goofy comic book movies.”

I mean, I can, I love good movies. I kinda just wanted to see how you'd react to that. Batman v. Superman is a goofy comic book movie. It wants to be more than that, but in doing so it just further entrenches itself into that category.

OTHER: Reign of The Supermen is now streaming on DC Universe by Hakim36 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Baramos_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be on the Amazon appstore, but if you can't, just sideload it using apkmirror(don't use any other sites, just ApkMirror, there are a lot of shady sites out there), I did that before they put it on the Amazon appstore:

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/warner-bros-international-enterprises/dc-universe/dc-universe-1-25-release/dc-universe-the-ultimate-dc-membership-1-25-android-apk-download/

  1. Download this.

  2. Go into settings and choose to set "install from unverified sources" to allowed.

  3. Run the file by clicking on it (you can pull down from the top for your notifications and click on it if you can't actualy find the location, it's hard as I'm not sure where it actually saves it, you can also keep the Silk browser window open as it should be at the bottom to click on).

  4. After it installs, turn the settings back to "off" for "install from unverified sources".

I'm glad you mentioned Fire tablet as I got one on Black Friday and DC Universe's comics work really good on it once I figured out how to sideload the app (unlike some other apps I've tried to sideload like Dragalia Lost, which requires access to Google play store so it won't work sideloaded). I've also watched Young Justice episodes in between shifts at work. And since you download the comics they work without an internet connection.

Can't spell "holy shit that looks amazing" without Shazam.
