I just can't see anything DC does as anything other than them pathetically scrambling to throw something out after seeing Marvel's poo poo and going "OH gently caress"

Those Nolan Batman movies were respectable but like that's it for what, the past 20 years?

I haven't seen any of the Marvel movies, but I am really looking forward to this for some reason. It's got a great cast, and the director is pretty underrated in my opinion. This looks like an old school Joel Silver/Don Simpson flick and I can't wait.

dc should make some kind of adaptation of Grant Morrison's Doom Patrol and confuse everyone with radioactive hermaphrodites, dadaism supervillains who are led by a nonexistent man, gorillas making out with disembodied brains, beings who can only exist in the presence of pain who keep hundreds of tortured butterflies in an endless mansion, and other crazy wonderful poo poo.

You could check out Michael Kupperman's comics. It's not a superhero comic by any means but it's funny stuff like this.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

I liked Watchmen and Man of Steel. Snyder can't make characters work on an emotional level at all but his movies are real pretty and usually got a lot of neat scenes to enjoy. The Batman movies were also alright

Green Lantern wasnt very good and I can't remember any other DC movies at all... [edit] Superman Returns was real boring too

People seem to forget that Marvel released plenty of stinkers too, people also forget they've made a lot more movies than DC. Like a lot more

The Xmen movies have been up and down and all over the place, you got older garbage like Daredevil movie and Electra, the new garbage spider man movies (was never a fan of the old ones either), the awful fantastic four movies, the mediocre as gently caress Hulk movies, the first Ghost Rider was awful (the second one was only mostly awful), Iron Man 2 was a whole lotta nothing, Blade III was awful, all the Thor movies are forgettable etc.

They'd have to change the line-up now that Chris Nolan killed Bane off in the most anti-climactic way possible. "Let's have Batman lose everything, then go through all kinds of training and badly choreographed fights to prepare himself again for one last battle and - gently caress it, never mind, just shoot him."

Sort of, I think they did some of it but there were a bunch of publishers on that one. Not sure who did the movie.

excellent fodder for a dumbass yet entertaining comedy movie IMO

This would have worked if they had gone for a Guardians Of The Galaxy route with this film. I'm not even sure why they have such a grimdark movie with a cast of unknown characters. I'm betting that the reason it's being made is because it's going to be more of a Joker movie than any of these characters (excluding Harley).

I want The Filth because it seems like it ridicules a lot of Mark Millar's adapted output like Wanted and Kingsman, even if it predates those books.

The only ones of those actually made by Marvel Studios are the Hulk, Iron Man 2, and Thor movies, the rest are all movie license deals with Fox, Sony, etc.

So while a bunch of Marvel properties were bad movies, they weren't made by Marvel itself

It's basically all this. Batman vs. Superman is riding the same tone as Man of Steel and it feels loving awful. Suicide Squad looks great in comparison since it's likely taking itself just a little bit less seriously which is why Marvel's poo poo is doing so well. DC's movies look so grimdark and serious, they might as well have adapted TDKR probably looks more light hearted.

Also, I'd say Edgar Wright might make a good Doom Patrol movie, but he seems better suited for a Teen Titans or a JLI film. I don't think there's a writer or a director who could make a Morrison Doom Patrol work. It's just way too bizarre and off the wall. Taking the old Doom Patrol team and modernizing them and adding some of the character developments made over the decades like The Chief actually being a bit of an utter bastard and Mouisseuir Mallah and The Brain a legit couple would probably work out though.
