I just hope they do Aquaman justice. I like the guy they've got playing him (he was great in Stargate Atlantis and Game of Thrones)Originally Posted by Von Kinger
I used to mock Aquaman personally because no one every wrote him well and he always made me think of the dopey Justice League cartoon version of his character from the 70s or 80s or whatever.
Geoff Johns run with the character made me finally start to appreciate just how awesome of a character he can be.

The recent DC Animation Movie incarnations have been really well done. And he is badass in the Injustice 2 video game.
Wonder Woman is holding strong at 96% right now which would make it the best reviewed live-action comic book movie ever. I hope it holds up.

That's because DC Animation is pretty much the most badass thing ever! If they stopped making live action movies to focus on animation, you'd not hear a single complaint out of me.

I think Flashpoint Paradox was one of my favorite Super Hero movies period of the last decade.

The Killing Joke was pretty awesome as well. If nothing else to hear Mark Hamil reading such iconic dialog.

That one was ok, not my favorite though. They REALLY took some liberties with the story and added too much fluff. Agreed on Mark Hammil though, he pretty much is the definitive Joker at this point.

They needed to cut off the new stuff as a separate chapter - that would have allowed them to have the run time that they needed to justify making the movie, as well as giving more backstory that they wanted as well.
Other than that, it was mostly a panel by panel duplicate.

So apparently they had some private screenings for "women only" viewings of the new Wonder Woman to which some men were upset by. lol
That's What it Does!
Yeah I saw that. These are probably the same guys that boycotted the last Ghostbusters movie and hop online and call everyone else snowflakes every chance they get. For once these girls and women have a representation of a superhero on the big screen in a solo movie and they want to identify with it and I say more power to them. These guys have a million other screenings they can attend, and for that matter a million other movies they can watch with dudes in leading roles being badass. This isn't them being exclusionary to men, it is them celebrating finally being included in a male dominated genre and coming together to do so.
Some people just want to make it all about them and play the victim just like they accuse everyone else of doing.

They were just jealous they didn't get to watch it.
It makes sense, it's a movie that has the potential to draw women into the super hero genre, they obviously are attempting to gauge how well it does with a small sampling of women.
That's What it Does!
It wasn't even that. DC knew they have a hit on their hands since the fan screenings just over a week ago. These women only screenings were actually charity events and things like that.

Yea, not a big deal to get worked up over regardless.
Leading the rebellion
Yeah it is, it's sexist.
It reeks of inequality and positive discrimination.
They should never have got the vote... Look what the world coming to. Men can't enter a certain movie theatre for a few hours on one day this year...aaarrrgghhh
What a lot of shit
Prof Von HammurSchlong
It is sexist but its also not a big deal. I mean, its not like other people are not going to get to see this movie. But, since (kind of like BATB) WW is going to resonate with female empowerment they needed to gauge how the response was going to be so the screenings make total sense.

I predict more truck balls in 2018.
