DC Films

I view all my pirate shit on a private plex server. It's basically knock off Nigel netflix.

I think technically all the movies are supposed to be in the same continuity, it's just very loose and doesn't reference itself much. They all have the same cast, and even when Superman appears but we don't see his face, he's in the Man of Steel suit.

It's possible that The Flash is a reset button of sorts, mind, as it really looks as though Keaton will be the DCEU Batman going forward, seeing as he's in Batgirl.

Incidentally, I do hope the HBO movies such as Batgirl and Black Canary get a theatrical release over here so I don't have to give money to Sky ...

Depends how old your daughter is. The Black Canary is pretty violent in Arrow, and the Canary in Legends of Tomorrow is... weird. It's a weird (and great) show.

LoT has a pretty bad first season, but it gets a lot better after they embrace the insanity.

As for Arrow,

I don't know if the plan is for it to be R-rated but it's the same actor from Birds of Prey, and rumour is she's also in Batgirl. Hopefully we'll get to the Oracle/Canary/Huntress lineup from the comics before long.

With you on the whole adult tone of the DC movies though. My kids - who are still quite young really - came to DC though the cartoons, but all the films are quite serious and grim. Even stuff like Wonder Woman and Shazam can be quite violent and scary compared to the MCU, and Harley is effectively an R-rated character now.

It's one of the reasons I'm always annoyed by serious takes on Batman! Someone reboot the Adam West series! Please!

Have to admit, peacemaker is fucking ace.
It's r rated as fuck and just nuts.

Dark small scale film noir detective story. Sounds good to me. Looking forward to it. I'm slightly bored of all the constant imminent destruction of city /planet stuff.

Completed it all in one sitting. Holy shit that was just awesome fun.

The production quality is fantastic and some of the setpieces are glorious. The scene in the bottling factory was a highlight.

The run time is ridiculous for a comic book movie.

That’s completely put me off seeing it in the theatre.

it is an odd complaint to make in a thread about comic book movies.
long films are long films. It's hard for any genre to keep interest at that length, but when they do, it's great.

Am I the only one who thinks the idea of The Riddler as a John Doe-style serial killer leaving creepy clues behind is totally first base and phenomenally uninteresting?

The fact that I'm sick to the hind teeth of "realistic" interpretations of Batman might be colouring my opinion however.

I kind of like the idea of a film depicting batman as an actual détective for once so I'm into it. Looking forward to seeing this in the cinema.

The Guardian review of "incredibly saggy last act and rubbish ending" is setting off my Wonder Woman / all DC movies alarm pretty strongly. We thought we had an interesting idea that maybe the system is bad in some way, oh no it was a CGI villain all along. Cool.
