Justice League Part 1 starts filming in less than two months

Snyder is a professional, I can't see any director taking on a title character they hate.

If we want to talk about horrendous editing and directing, how the dark knight scene in which the Joker and his goons attack the Wayne penthouse? The scene cuts away after Batman saves Rachel meanwhile the Joker and the goons are in the penthouse with Alfred there and Harvey Dent locked up. Why does Nolan rarely get called out for that?

The script had Joker making his escape. My guess is there was a scene filmed but it was cut. Why you may ask? I bet they didn't know how to end the scene. On one hand, the Joker murdering all the penthouse guests would've been way too dark and probably ruin the PG-13 rating. But on the other hand, it might've been uncharacteristic of the psychotic Joker to make a run for it without taking lives for fun. So they might have decided to take the easy way out and cut it to the next scene.

It's still bad film making as the plot of the scene clearly wasn't over. If Burton had a scene like that, Nolanites would have been all over it.

In my mind, Joker leaves the way he came in, via the elevator. And rushes to a waiting getaway car. I don't think he had any reason to linger at the party any longer.

I don't think they'd care either way. Why would they?

Guys, I may write an Ultimate Edition BvS review, to coincide with the home video release. It deserves all the praise it gets. I'll probably call the piece 'Snyder's true vision' or something similar. Explaining the new scenes and what they add to the film.

[The Dark Knight]

That may have to be put on hold. I forgot about my Leto Joker article, which I'll start this week based on the details released. The main meat will obviously be added after actually seeing the film.

Well, holy sh*t, Zach Snyder just tweeted out the trailer to JL, and it looks AMAZING. I will say, the tone looks much lighter, but goddamn, does it look good. Love it!

And here's the new WW trailer. Also looks great:

[Catwoman]

Oh hell yes, those were EPIC.

The Batsuit looks leaner this time with a slimmer cowl. Take note, Nolan, THIS is how you make Batman look leaner without turning him into a bobblehead.

I like all the costumes but wish they went into a better direction with Flash. I think the metallic look from Injustice is unnecessary along with incorporating the black. Also, Miller's Flash just seems more like Wally than Barry to me. Maybe I'm just biased towards the CW Flash (though to be fair, Miller's Barry is a way better Wally in personality than that show's Wally so far).

Wish there was some Superman footage with this too.

The Flash is probably the JL character I'm most interested in, what with this being his first cinematic outing. But I share your concerns. He definitely comes across as more Wally West than Barry Allen in this footage. The scene between him and Bruce reminds me of Tony Stark's first scene with Peter Parker in Civil War. If they're going to make him the younger comic relief member of the JLA, why not just use Wally West? They could make Barry's absence an unanswered mystery, similar to Robin's fate in BvS. That would leave the door open for Barry to appear in a later film.

Of course it's too early to judge at this stage, but I do hope they get across the more mature, scientific, analytical side of Barry's character. As far as his appearance goes, I wish he was blonde. But other than that, I think he looks all right. The Injustice influence is very apparent.

Wish there was some Superman footage with this too.

No footage, but there's this:

[Catwoman]

So much for the long hair. I was looking forward to that. Sigh.
