I like that costume.

Skippord 10-10-2012 08:38 PM

he's about 6 inches from SuperHitler

Lock Jaw 10-10-2012 08:42 PM

Yeah, totally looks like an Alt Evil Superman attire.

At least it doesn't have a high collar.

Triple Naitch 10-11-2012 01:12 PM

Arrow wasn't too bad. A few cheesy dialogue lines in between but it was entertaining. And the main bint is fiiiiiiiiiit.

I really liked the Court of Owls storyline.

I read an interview with Scott Snyder where he says he looks at Batman as the King and Gotham as his kingdom.

Court of Owls was about a king discovering he didn't know his kingdom as well as he thought and Death of the Family is about a Court Jester reminding the King of all his failures and trying to break him down.

I am also really loving All-Star Western. Caught up with that as well. I have actually been going back and reading the old Jonah Hex series from the same writers. It is also pretty great. I don't know how they could screw up a movie with the dude. Not that I have actually seen the movie. I will probably give it a watch after I am done reading the series.

Now I will go watch Arrow. Forgot to watch it yesterday.

I thought it was entertaining. I'm interested to see where they go from here. We even got some neat trick arrows

Arrow, btw. Has ads, though.

Lock Jaw 10-11-2012 10:00 PM

I liked it well enough to tune in again.

Is it just me, though, or are they using the exact same mansion for the Queen Mansion that they did in Smallville for the Luthor Mansion?

I have a feeling Deathstroke helped "train" Ollie on The Island.

Kalyx triaD 10-12-2012 11:42 PM

Looks okay.

Lock Jaw 10-13-2012 12:04 AM

NEEDS MORE POUCHES

Kalyx triaD 10-13-2012 12:44 AM

Let us all consider that he made it on live media in more accurate fashion than Deadpool.

Kalyx triaD 10-13-2012 01:45 AM

Arrow was good. I will follow it.

Ollie seemed good with fighting, I'm betting Slade trained him on that island.

McLegend 10-13-2012 12:53 PM

Just watched the Dark Knight Returns part 1, and I loved it.

Prefer it over the book.

DC Animated Films Move On:

Quote:

Expected in the summer of 2013 is Superman: Unbound, which will be an adaptation of Geoff Johns and Gary Frank's 'Braniac' story. Following that will be Justice League: Flashpoint, which adapts the Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert mini-series that jump started the New 52 last year. 2013 will also see the release of LEGO Batman: DC Heroes Unite, which will be an animated adaptation of the popular video game series.
Holy shit.

Lock Jaw 10-14-2012 03:05 AM

Flashpoint movie? Really?

Superman one could be good. Wonder if they will follow it up with a New Krypton movie (possibly several?)

Kalyx triaD 10-14-2012 05:22 AM

Flashpoint could be their sly way of saying every animated movie going forward will be DCnU based. It is very uncommon for a recent comic storyline to go mainstream that quickly.

Nowhere Man 10-15-2012 01:54 AM

I really liked the Brainiac storyline, so I'm looking forward to that one.

Flashpoint, though? Blegh. I was not a fan. Especially if this means that all of DC's animated stuff from here on out is gonna be "New 52" related.

Lock Jaw 10-15-2012 02:04 AM

I just want them to make a Superman: Birthright movie. Preferably as the start of a live-action franchise... but we already know that isn't going to happen.... so... make an animated one.

Kalyx triaD 10-15-2012 02:47 AM

Man of Steel might be going in that direction.

Lock Jaw 10-15-2012 01:33 PM

Lex Luthor isn't in Man of Steel, so it can't possibly be going in that direction. It can certainly borrow some elements from it, though.

slik 10-15-2012 02:01 PM

Glad that both Deathstroke and Deadshot are in Arrow.

I enjoyed Flashpoint, in particular Thomas Wayne as Batman.

It should be an easy adaptation.

This was an amazing episode of Young Justice. I hate the fact that Cartoon NEtwork has decided to put YJ on the shelf until next year. What the fuck is that about? This is literally one of the best shows they have going for them.

Quite possibly something to do with the Stephanie Brown debacle.


But that might just be the ravings of a fandom scorned.

Nowhere Man 10-16-2012 02:04 AM

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the DCnU should just be the Young Justice Universe. It'd make the comics about a thousand times better.

Kalyx triaD 10-16-2012 03:29 AM

Young Justice is one of the best things coming from DC right now. Their whole animated slate is pretty good. The comics are besides the point for me now.

Going to be running out of things to replace them with at this rate.

DaveBrawl 10-16-2012 08:16 AM

There's always room for more Batbooks.

Been a while since they did Shadow of the Bat or Legends of the Dark Knight.

Lock Jaw 10-16-2012 02:18 PM

Legends of the Dark Knight is currently going as a Digital Comic.

Really? I always kind of liked that one, thought it was gone for good. Might have to look into that.
