I've already written off Batman v Superman; I haven't even bothered to watch the trailer yet. I was holding out some hope for Suicide Squad, because it's such a solid concept that's really difficult to screw up. But dear God no.
Gunn: You ready? Fred: Is no an acceptable answer?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Ugh, noooooo.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I couldn't figure out if it belonged here or in Jossverse due to the total Jossyness of it. Seriously. The Troupe is all here.
From the comments: "Does the cast of Dollhouse just travel around in a pack?"
That looks fun. I'll probably go see it.

But dear God no.
Oh no. Ugh. I think I'm done with DC movies, y'all. Even WW may not be enough to get me to sit through another one.

I'll go see The Dark Knight Returns 2: More Darkerer because I'm a Henry Cavill fan and want to see what the new Wonder Woman is like, but this doubling down on the bleak grittiness is a 180° wrong turn from what a Superman movie should be.
And I'm pretty sure I won't be paying to see it 5 times like I did for Man of Steel.

Hey. New board.
I like the Joker look.

The Joker looks like a friggin' nutcase on nut juice, as well he should. It doesn't resemble any other interpretations I've seen but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm neutral on the movie Joker. My guess is he'll have his signature purple suit at least part of the time and won't spend the whole movie doing a Flea impersonation .
It's still light years better than the current "I wear my cut-off face as a mask" comic incarnation.

It's hard to take someone who looks like the current movie Joker seriously. Yeah, he's hard-core and probably dangerous and certainly crazy, but it's Reaver-dangerous, the kind you put down as soon as you've got a clear shot. There no impression of someone who would sit across a table from other crime lords and get them to do his bidding. The Joker's crazy and murderous, but he's also smart and in control of himself enough to use those smarts. That movie Joker looks like he just runs around the streets shrieking maniacally.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ooh, the Avengers double feature starts at my nearby theater at 4:15 tomorrow. I could maybe do that. In 3D, which I don't necessarily mind, but don't particularly need.
Ultron at 9am on Saturday is also very appealing.
Hm.
