Why don't we add Robin and The Creeper to the cast? :lol:

WB makes the most dickish moves when it comes to DC films not called DK.

I think Supergirl would be an even worse choice than WW, especially if they use that Loeb story, which depends heavily on the history between Bats and Supes (and heck, also involves WW and Darkseid in the end). You're going to be introducing a new Batman, you're going to be developing Superman, and then you're going to add another superhero (Supergirl or Wonder Woman) into the mix? Plus have time for Perry White, the Daily Planet staff, Lois Lane and the destruction of a metropolitan area? And maybe even some kind of villain or two? Add the Legion of Superheroes and the Outsiders too while you're at it.

Sarcasm noted but you've successfully named fewer characters than the Avengers had. Also, "developing" Superman and Batman? There's nothing to develop. Everyone knows who they are.

I'd just like a post credit introduction/tease of WW.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

Avengers was a team movie, and most of the characters were at least introduced to the viewing audience in previous movies. This is a sequel to a solo movie that I thought was going to be to help introduce individual characters so they could eventually make a team movie, but who knows?

Everyone knowing who they are doesn't seem to prevent them from redoing origin stories every single time they relaunch a franchise. Although I think it'd be great if they went into this with Superman and Batman having had an off-screen history, and not having to go through their first meeting.

If it's a cameo/teast/post credits intro, I'm with you, though, that's be cool.

ugh.

please pick someone who is at least mildly attractive.

Already the nerdrage percolating :)

Except the Amazons weren't all Greek; they were a multicultural group of reincarnated women.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

I think the origin shit is simply because hollywood is out of ideas so they shovel the same crap out redone every few years. SvB or Justice League aside, the core DC characters don't really need an introduction. Show Wonder Woman kicking some ass and the audience isn't going to sit and wonder about her Amazonian past. Same with Aquaman. He has gills and swims, we're up to speed. They can get to backstory later. Now once you get out of those core characters the general public will need some more info like Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Cyborg, Martian Manhunter, etc.

That would be fantastic. It would be a good way to skip the next Batman origin story too. Kinda like jumping into the middle of a story that's been going on for awhile.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

And depending on which origin they use, Diana could have been made of clay by her mother so she could really look like any ethnicity.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

Aquaman doesn't have gills.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

What the hell? Clearly you, at least, do need the origin stories. :lol:

I'm hoping this is a joke but it's not looking like it.

He had a stroke when he was diagnosed with Asperger's. Best not pick on him or else it might constitute abuse.

Can we go back 10-15 years or so and get Monica Bellucci for Wonder Woman?

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

She's always been hot but has she ever done anything to suggest she'd be a convincing action hero?

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

:lol: Fair enough. Are gills important to his origin? He still swims right?

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

She was in that action scene with Clive Owen fucking her. That's it. And Dobermann (sp?), but I've yet to see that one. Has she ever done an action role?

Even if we got her from that timeframe I don't think she has ever been really good in an American film. Her foreign films rock. I'd like to see Irreversible on BD over here, Noe is crazy but his images are wildly amazing to a degree until they get violent and you get mindfucked about with it.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

He doesn't have gills, and swimming isn't a superpower. Most people can swim. I can swim.

Aquaman is the king of Atlantis. He has superhuman strength, endurance, reflexes, etc. Oh and he can talk to fish.

Its a shame that ever since that Super Friends TV series that Aquaman has always been seen as a joke. He's really quite badass. Its odd that Namor (his Marvel Comics counterpart) is never seen as a joke, but Aquaman is.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

Yeah. Loved Supefriends back in the day. Watched Young justice. Caught AC in Smallville. Even watched the Justin Hartley pilot. Ultimate point is the average person doesn't care about Aquaman's origin. He's the guy who swims and talks to fish. Same for Flash, who I left out above. I'm not saying their origins are skippable, just unnecessary if a team movie or cameo did come first. i.e. Just because it would be their first appearance on film, we don't need the whole back story, people get the gist of the core five and what they do.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

It's Wonder Woman, not Wonder Man. So this Patton fella would not work.

What about Gina Carano? She kicked ass in Haywire.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

Yeah she's an ogre, I just can't tell if she's a dude or not. Fell out the ugly tree and all that.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

Agreed, she'd make a great Wonder Woman, physically, as WW is supposed to be an Amazon, as in a huge, buffed babe, not some petite little thing, but Carano is just not a good enough actor. They had to dub in another actor's voice for her in Haywire.

re: Untitled Superman & Batman Film (2015) (D: Snyder; S: Cavill, Affleck)
 

I thought they just tinkered with her voice in post?
