I hope we get some good 80's music in some of the scenes.

It's still wild to me that this is a year and a half from release, even finishing filming.

I agree but I mustache you a question if you really think Cavill was a poor choice.

I mean he was certainly leagues better than Routh. I think I saw that one once in theaters and that was it. I’ll see it again one day, but it was just such a fail. I just think Cavill is a little bland in the role. There is no Clark at all (and what little we get is dour and just not fun) and I think that is why Reeve’s duality was so memorable. He embodied both characters with ease and levity in Clark and serious, but still some humor in the hero. He was just magic. Cavill is just so one note for me. I don’t know who would be a better choice, but I’m sure someone could have done something better in MoS...

What you're describing isn't really his fault though. It's Zack Snyder's. I think given half a chance with a writer/director who actually understands the character, Cavill could do a fine job.

The year on the thread title needs an update since this now opens in 2020.

I'll always argue that most of the casting has been generally excellent in the DCEU, with the exceptions really only being Eisenberg as Lex and Leto as Joker. Affleck's Batman in a limited role has been one of the highlights in Batman V Superman and Justice League, and I agree that Cavill just wasn't given a lot to do. Even Ezra Miller was better then I expected. Gadot of course has been perfect.

Of the main heroes, Ezra is the weakest link, but he grew on me after seeing the film a second time. Other than that I agree with you fu. Should the DCEU continue, Lex and the Joker either need to be recast or just left out of this universe. Or rewritten as alternate Earth characters or something along those lines. Those two are easily the worst casting mistakes DC has made.

IDK, I liked Eisenberg as Luthor, especially what could've been with the more subdued version in the Justice League post-credit scene. But I'm willing to bet we won't see him again and they'll go with an older Luthor whose grand plan will once again be a real estate schemer; they won't be able to resist with Trump in the White House.

I will hate Eisenberg in that role forever, and i'm someone that liked him in Social Network, Zombieland, or even Now You See Me.

I also really like the supporting characters in the DCEU. Diane Lane is great, and I was a fan of Costner, Crowe, Irons. I liked Pine and Robin Wright was pretty great. Amy Adams was iffy for me though.

A Big Barda movie is coming out !?! (I wish)


Looks like the background is purposefully distorted to hide some elements that will be revealed later (SDCC?)

Show me something from the ‘80s that looks like that.
