BvS was very close to being a pretty damn good movie, a lot of the hate that movie gets is undue criticism. SS on the other hand was just awful. 

Basically DC needs to stay afloat for two more movies: WW and Justice League. After that they will be free of Snyder's terrible decision making and Geoff Johns will be head of creative control. 

We just need Justice League to be decent. We kinda need WW to be a home run because comic book movies are sorely lacking a female lead. 

 

I'm a big fan of DC characters, and Green Lantern is my favorite so I'm just praying DC learned from its mistakes and won't repeat them again. 

Justice League already looks to have more humor than BvS which is a great sign. Still not a fan of Snyder's dark toned fetish but whatever.

People keep saying it's DC but the ones in control here is WB. DC can't do anything but nod in agreement or just see Batman movies get made for the next 20-30 years.

Johns isn't exactly who I'd hire to oversee the DCU. The guy has conceived some crappy concepts. I would have preferred Timm but I think he got himself blacklisted for something. 

Visually, this film will kick ass but I'm worried about the need to cater to those idiots who are in love with Marvel's cookie cutter formula. I haven't enjoyed an MCU film in quite awhile outside Dr Strange and Guardians of the Galaxy. 

I kinda like it. It looks very Watchmen-esque. 

would have rather had Timm as well

We'll see but the DCU isn't a flop thus far. It's made almost two billion. Critically, it's a clusterfug but the hyperbole was extreme for BvS and SS.

Money wise, yes its been a success. As far as making a Home Run movie, not so much imo. 

BvS had its moments (mainly Batfleck and Wonder Woman) but just missed the mark for me. It felt like they tried to fit 5 lbs of crap into a 3lbs bucket. I could not get into to SS at all. Leto's joker was terrible and ruined it for me. 

I'm hoping Wonder Woman is good. The trailers look awesome. Justice League looks like it will be fun. Momoa's Aquaman was badass.

Looks like it has potential. BvS was terrible. I will say the extended version was a better film but still not good. Suicide Squad was one of the worst films I've seen in a while. 

That said of course I will waste my money and go see this. I hope they bring back Batman's more cunning qualities in future films. I got the sense that in BvS he was a what you see is what you get type of guy. You don't get the feeling that he has something up his sleeve at all times. Which was something Nolan/Bale had, almost Bond-esque.

DC movies have got casting all wrong, for years, fycking years. Aquaman is the only thing they've done right since Micheal Keaton. Look at Marvel. They killed off Hugh Jackman to recast. That's bold. Needed but bold. There is no hope for DC.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
