First Kylo Ren, now Flash. What is it with Hollywood's obsession with casting hipster-looking dudes?

I know the Flash doesn't need to be as buff as Superman or even Batman, but that guy looks like one of those Phillipino ladyboys!

Hopefully Snyder will eventually get booted altogether. That sounds like good news on Flash. Maybe now they'll get a director who has actually, y'know, directed before. Now if they could ditch mr. Hipster man-bun guy and get somebody decent to play Flash.
funny. when i think 'the flash', this is the first guy who pops into my mind
but i'm not sure whether this hear boy will be able to satisfy that hottie iris allen or not. that's lot of woman! most bangable superhero wife aside from hawk-gurl! btw, was her pet name for barry's schlong 'dr. lu'?

I think he'd be more likely to satisfy the Flash's gay villain, the Pied Piper.

I finally just watched Fantastic Four (2015) tonight, since it's on Netflix. Two things:
1) If you're going to go so "off-book" from the source material that the characters are unrecognizable, why use their names at all? I might actually have enjoyed this movie if it wasn't the Fantastic Four. Of course, the ending was utter shite, so that could've been completely tossed out and redone.
2) Why can't Hollywood ever get Doctor Doom right? He's a scientist heavily into the occult whose brilliance for invention is only rivaled by Reed Richards. He DOES NOT HAVE SUPER-POWERS, and HE IS NOT THE FANTASTIC FOUR'S "FIFTH BEATLE"!!!
Anyway, to get back on topic, the lessons of this Fantastic Four movie seem to be completely lost on Zack Snyder and company. Whenever Hollywood veers off from the source material in a superhero movie, they end up making a shit film, and the fans will not support their efforts.

Yeah, that lesson is lost on the director of the new Ghostbusters movie,too, and he's actively blaming Fandom in the media. Apparently, we're all a bunch of assholes for wanting a movie that respects the original instead of a gimmicky reboot.

Starsky, don't you know that if you don't love the new Ghostbusters reboot without even seeing it first, it means 100% of the time that you hate women.  |

Hey, that's not fair! I'm already racist because I thought the changes to the Storm family in F4 were contrived.

What happened to that Ghostbuster film? I remember seeing a lot of promotional posts on Facebook and then everything went silent. Was it shown already?

after a long period of saying no no no!, i finally watched batman vs superman on hbo. where to begin? it was looong. me & the mrs. watched it in three segments. my first reaction is that henry cavill really came thru as superman. obviously no one will ever replace chris reeve, not in our lifetimes. but by james bond standards if chris reeve was sean connery, henry cavill is daniel craig, pierce brosnan, roger moore and george lazenby rolled into one.
i believed a man could fly! gaining some character in his face as he's aged, i think cavill has become about the best choice they could have made. the love/hate relationship humanity has with him is as great as anything in any superhero series of movies. "help us superman!!! now go away, die!!!" the scene where the latin "peasants" just wanted to touch him was unbelievable. jeremy irons was the best alfred ever. but he's always fantastic, no surprise. "red haired" lois lane was annoying! but a good actress. lois is suppose to be annoying! it's her job description.
the early bruce wayne scenes were affecting. a human bruce wayne risking his life trying to help his employees. if only it just had not been affleck. to me he always looks like he's smirking. it's probably just me. although my mrs. can't stand him either. and he often looked FAT in the bat-suit. he looked like an over-stuffed couch. with beard stubble. you're rich bruce! buy yerself some razors! maybe buy a gillette fusion proshield ! have yerself a nice shave!!! it takes 3 minutes!!! buy a hot shaving-creame dispenser!!! just shave!!! you're not a gay porn star!!! but i'm probably 100% wrong, i'm just too bias against fathead no-talent jennifer garner-fucker to give him a square shake. i'm the one with the problem. maybe. probably.
wonder woman was a totally unneeded cameo. but whew, i like her! what a honey! she'll be great if they actually do a jla film. she proved you don't need big boobs to play wonder woman! a total eye opener. i liked the film a LOT better than the movie going public. i don't get why it didn't do very well. prediction! the next affleck batman film will bomb hard. |

Dammit, MH!
I can't believe you bumped poor John Hurt's obit to praise this giant turd! bad pacing, incoherent storytelling... a spastic Lex Luthor who made Jim Carrey's Riddler seem butch.... you name it, this movie had it. I've heard the three-hour cut was more coherent, but who wants to sit through a 3-hour cut?
I wonder who the villain will be for Man of Steel 2? Michael Cera as Brainiac?
