Zack Snyder Talks Batman Vs. Superman & Reacts To Man of Steel Criticism

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23944:]]

The latest issue of Famous Monsters magazine features an interview with Batman Vs. Superman director Zack Snyder. Check out highlights, which includes Snyder commenting on Man of Steel criticisms and more.

On Batman Vs. Superman:

“The discovery of the story is that Batman fights Superman. Now move your superhero chess pieces so that can happen. And it can happen in a credible and interesting way. … It’s just incredibly satisfying and fun to dig into these two mythological characters and find a through line that allows them to come into conflict in a way that not only is philosophically satisfying, but also physically real.”

On Batman:

“He’s not yet tired of his place in the world. He’s definitely still tooth-and-nailing it.”

On Man of Steel cricism:

“I stand by it, because for me, I’ve always said when I was working on WATCHMEN — and maybe it’s sort of left over from a WATCHMEN philosophical sort of thing — that there should be consequences to superheroes’ interaction with the earth. And that was kind of the way that we approached MAN OF STEEL. I wanted a big consequence to Superman’s arrival on earth. Certainly, BATMAN v SUPERMAN sort of cashes in all its chips on the ‘why’ of that destruction.”

Charlie Cox Wants Daredevil In Avengers: Infinity War

With their potentially being a lot of characters in Avengers: Infinity War, how about Daredevil being amongst them?

Well, it doesn’t seem to be on the cards at the moment, as Charlie Cox says he hasn’t gotten the call, but the actor tells Entertainment Tonight he wants in.

“Yeah. That would be the coolest thing ever. Marvel TV and Marvel Studios are two very different things,” said Cox. “Even if the character were to appear in that film, that doesn’t necessarily mean that I would appear in that film. I will pick a fight with the guy that they choose!… So that would be a dream, but that’s not something that has been discussed.”

Jon Bernthal also talked about playing The Punisher offering it’s an honor and that he looks at playing the character as a responsibility.

Star Wars Land Rumors Include Life-Size Millennium Falcon and More

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21717:]](Star Wars Land concept art)

A batch of rumors has hit the net regarding the new Star Wars Land theme park that is currently in development for Disneyland park in Anaheim, California and Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

Making Star Wars received some info that Star Wars Land will feature a life-size Millennium Falcon, as well as that fans will be able to fly in the cockpit.

Here are a few more details; more at the link above:

• Poe Dameron’s black X-wing fighter will greet guests at the 3rd entrance to Star Wars Land, although an Episode VIII feature to the fighter might make it different from what we know about it from The Force Awakens.

• Characters and creatures from Star Wars: Episode VIII will be featured in the park.

• The word is the Imagineers loved the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story script, but if that will come into play is still hazy. Initial word was the second major attraction would feature Rogue One content, but now that appears to be somewhat unlikely.

Star Wars: Episode VIII Luke Skywalker Scenes Rumored

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23934:]]

A batch of rumors for Star Wars: Episode VIII involving scenes with Luke Skywalker have hit the net.

These come from a Star Wars fan site out of Italy that claims someone-in-the-know has seen concept art and/or storyboards revealing the scenes.

Obviously it’s not known how legit the info is, but the scenes sound pretty cool as they involve Luke Skywalker teaming with Rey against Kylo Ren and probably Benicio Del Toro’s character, who is said to be a villain of the movie (probably saving Snoke for Episode IX à la Return of the Jedi).

Translated via Bing:

In the scene we have Luke and Rey. The two, in the rain, they seem committed to training with Lightsabers, Luke with the historic green and Rey with that blue, belonged to his new master and even before Anakin Skywalker. The planet is the sameon which we find Luke in “the awakening of the force” (as revealed by Pablo Hidalgo, the planet is called Ahch-to). The clothes are very similar to those of the conclusion of the film.

Translated via Bing:

The scene is called ‘ epic ‘, although the realization of designs appeared simpler than its predecessor. Turning to thedescription: war scene. It is sunset. The planet seems to be the same on which we find Maz Kanata in “awakening of force”but with a Palace/Temple much bigger. (we can assume that the Palace/temple to Yavin 4? The similarity between the planets is there, the Palace/Temple more just as large). The war is raging and the resistance (or at least an entity comparableto it) is clearly struggling, on the verge of defeat. Chewbacca is at an angle to secure a figure wound, while seems to launchof shout. Kylo Ren is on the battlefield with the usual three-blade lightsaber but with him we find another character armed with a lightsaber red (another Knight of Ren? Recall that Benicio del Toro has effectively confirmed, repeatedly, be involved in the film and some rumor would seem to indicate a villain).

Near the figure of Kylo Ren there is a Post-It says ‘ stronger than ever ‘. You see an incoming ship, whose door is coming down, harassed by the fire of the Stormtrooper. On the tailgate there are Luke Skywalker and Rey who, by using force, pushing away the soldiers of the first order. Dropped on the battlefield begins comparing with Kylo Ren and the second obscure figure.

In this sequence Luke seems to have a different look, with hair and beard more manicured and similar to that of the lastpicture we see Mark Hamill. The clothes seem to recall those of Obi-Wan in episode I except to have the sleeves and a whiterobe.

Star Wars: Episode VIII has a newly announced release date of December 15, 2017 directed by Rian Johnson.

Parmount Yanks Terminator: Genisys Sequel From Release Schedule

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23932:]]

Paramount has removed the planned sequel to Terminator: Genisys from its release schedule, which originally had a May 19, 2017 release date.

The Baywatch remake starring Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron has now taken Terminator‘s place.

Paramount didn’t offer any explanation as to why Terminator was removed.

A Terminator universe was being planned, but then said to be shelved indefinitely, only for the producers to state Terminator will be back; however, this latest news doesn’t bode well for a Teminator universe as the rights are due to revert back to James Cameron in 2019. Cameron stated he wasn’t interested in Terminator and moved on to Avatar.

Terminator: Genisys did do well internationally at the box office ($350 million), but only did around $90 million in the U.S.

Thor: Ragnarok Is A Universal Road Movie Says Mark Ruffalo

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23931:]]

Empire caught up with Mark Ruffalo, who is currently promoting his latest movie Spotlight, and chatted with the actor about Thor: Ragnarok, which sees Ruffalo back as Banner and the Hulk.

Ruffalo said Thor 3 is a “road movie” (meaning a movie which sees the main character traveling, and/or on some sort of journey of self-discovery, etc.) and compared the film to the 1988 Midnight run movie starring Charles Grodin and Robert De Niro.

“There’s a little bit of Midnight Run, with [Charles] Grodin and [Robert] De Niro. I feel like that’s kind of where we’re heading with this relationship between Thor and Banner. It is a universal road movie – that’s where we’re heading. It’s not where you’d think it will be, so it’s not your classic road movie but it has that structure, I think.”

Ruffalo also commented about working with fellow Avenger, Chris Hemsworth.

“I love Chris [Hemsworth], and it’s not an accident that we’ve been put together because we have a good time together and we goof off. The fact that we’re moving towards the smart-comedic bent plays into our relationship.”

And Ruffalo confirms Hulk will be on Asgard: “[Am I looking forward to that?] Hells, yeah.”

Mark Ruffalo also revealed Thor: Ragnarok will be shot in Sydney, Australia.

“Thor: Ragnarok” has a November 3, 2017 release directed by Taika Waititi.

Ego The Living Planet Rumored Villain For Guardians of the Galaxy 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23927:]]

So following Ronan, who might the Guardians of the Galaxy take on next?

How about Ego The Living Planet?

Geek.com is stating sources closed to production have stated Ego is set to make an appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

We can even speculate the use of Ego might even mean The Stranger, as The Stranger created Ego (a recent ret-con).

I’ve never been a big fan of Ego, but at least Guardians of the Galaxy 2 won’t end in a dance off this time. Right, bro?

Ego did appear in issues of Abnett and Lanning’s Nova when the Worldmind gave Ego the Nova Force.

The Stranger is a pretty cool character as I first came upon him in the pages of Quasar, which even featured a Rocket Raccoon cameo (Quasar #15, I believe).

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 hits May 5, 2017.

Russo Brothers Tweet Out New Possible Captain: Civil War Related Image

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23910:]]

Following the ABC Captain America 75th Anniversary special, now the “Russo Brothers” Twitter has tweeted out a possible new image that connects to Captain America: Civil War or even Spider-Man.

The Twitter account is not confirmed to be official, but James Gunn did delete a tweet stating it was a fake (which probably means the account is related to promoting the movie).

Taking a look at the image below, obviously the first guess might be some sort of star. Perhaps on Captain America’s shield? However, the star on Cap’s shield is surrounded by blue, not red. There also looks to be a line of blue going through the bottom of the white part of whatever the image is. Maybe the paint gets messed up in a battle with Iron Man? Or perhaps this is an image of a patch or part of someone’s costume?

The Russo Brother Twitter did seemingly tease the Spider-Man costume, maybe this is related? Any ideas?

Watch: Geoff Johns Talks Green Lantern From Dawn of the Justice League Special

Noticeably absent from the Justice League concept art is none other than Green Lantern.

We already know a Green Lantern Corps movie is planned for 2020, and that’s about all we know.

Green Lantern concept art was previously released at last Summer’s Comic-Con (see below), but it still has yet to make its way officially online. Interestingly enough, the art looked a lot like Chris Pine, who recently denied GL rumors, and has a role in Wonder Woman as Steve Trevor. The “Dawn of Justice” special didn’t feature the art, either.

During tonight’s “Dawn of the Justice League” special, Kevin Smith asks DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns to fill them in about something nobody knows.

Johns said Green Lantern will be coming to the Justice League Universe.

“We’ve been to the bottom of the oceans. We’ve been to ancient Green mythology. We’ve been to the past and future of Flash. We’ve been to the digital world with Cyborg,” Johns said. “We still got to go to space. So the Green Lanterns and the Green Lantern Corps will be coming to join the Justice League Universe.”

While Geoff Johns really didn’t offer much, if we take his words literally, it sounds as if the Green Lantern Corps already exists and will be making themselves known to the rest of the Justice League characters (at least that’s my understanding) some time down the road. Johns’ words also seem to confirm the rumors of more than one Earth-based Green Lantern (as Johns says “Lanterns”).

A potential big Green Lantern spoiler recently hit the net as well.

Danny Trejo Teases Lobo

Could the Main Man be finally coming to the big screen?! Or the small screen for that matter?

Danny Trejo took to Twitter to seemingly tease Lobo by posted the following image along with: “First rule of hunting, Super Dupe. Make the target come to you. @DCComics.”

It more or less sounds as if Trejo is actually vying for the role of Lobo, then if he already has the part.

A Lobo movie was once in the works with Dwayne Johnson said to be up for the role and director Brad Peyton attached (and Guy Ritchie at one time), but the Lobo movie never saw the light of day.

Maybe Lobo could be headed to the Justice League movie universe or even the Arrow/Flash or Supergirl series.
