JUSTICE LEAGUE Scene Descriptions

This isn't sounding particularly good...


>Barry Allen arrives at his apartment. The walls are lined with televisions and the space is filled with gadgets Barry has created. Bruce Wayne is waiting for it and flips the switch on the circuit breaker that powers the apartment, revealing himself.

BRUCE: Barry Allen, I'm Bruce Wayne.

BARRY: You say it as if it's normal for me to walk in and find a complete stranger sitting in my second favorite chair.

>Bruce shows Barry a printout of the footage of Barry foiling a robbery in a convenience store.

BRUCE: I've been looking for you.

BARRY: I'm afraid you're looking for someone who looks a lot like me, but definitely isn't me. Long hair, kinda' hippie. He looks like a very attractive Jewish boy.

>Bruce plays the surveillance footage recovered from LexCorp.

BARRY: He drinks milk, though. I don’t drink milk.

BRUCE: I know you have abilities, I just don't know what they are.

BARRY: My special skills include viola, web design, fluent in sign-language, gorilla sign-language…

>Bruce points to the prototype suit hidden in the living room.

BRUCE: Silicon-based sand coarse fabric. Abrasion-resistant. Heat-resistant.

BARRY: I'm into competitive ice dancing.

BRUCE: This is used on the space shuttles to prevent them from burning up upon re-entry.

BARRY: It's very competitive ice dancing. Look, man, I don’t know who you are but whoever you’re looking for, it’s not me.

>Bruce throws a batrang at Barry's face. Barry perceives it in slow-motion. Time freezes as Barry moves out of the way and stops the batrang mid-flight, then returns to normal speed and faces Bruce.

BARRY: So you're Batman.

BRUCE: So you're fast.

BARRY: That's an oversimplification.

BRUCE: Listen, I’m putting together a team of people with special abilities. I believe enemies are coming, and I...

BARRY: Stop. I'm in.

BRUCE: Just like that?

BARRY: I need friends.

BRUCE: Great.

>Beat. Barry points to the batrang.

BARRY: So... Can I keep this?

>Commissioner James Gordon stands on the edge of the rooftop of the Gotham City Police Department, overlooking the city, with the Batsignal behind him shining in the night sky. Batman emerges from the shadows.

GORDON: How many of you are there?

BATMAN: Not enough.

>Wonder Woman and the Flash join them.

BATMAN: What have you got?

GORDON: A scientist has been kidnapped. Multiple eyewitnesses claim it was the same creature that was seen in Metropolis.

BATMAN: The bad guy's flying monkeys.

GORDON: That makes it eight abductions in three days.

>Cyborg unexpectedly arrives.

CYBORG: Nine. The head of S.T.A.R. Labs was taken last night.

>Wonder Woman smiles.

BATMAN: They can't simply have vanished. They must be nested somewhere.

GORDON: I've triangulated the creatures' movements onto a map of the area based on the eyewitnesses' reports, but they don't follow any sort of pattern. They don't converge anywhere.

CYBORG: Anywhere on land. They converge underground. Stryker's Island.

BATMAN: There's an old tunnel there. It was meant to connect the two cities, but it was never finished.

CYBORG: Worth taking a look.

FLASH: If you're coming along, there might not be enough room in the car.

>Batman smiles.

BATMAN: I got something bigger.

>Gordon turns back to the city.

GORDON: Monsters and aliens... When we started all this, did you ever think this is where things would end up, Batman?

>Gordon turns, and Batman, Wonder Woman and Cyborg are gone, but the Flash isn't.

GORDON: You still here?

FLASH: Yeah... Wait, they all left? Wow, that's so rude.

>Flash speeds off.

Some of it is definitely... eh but i do like that part at the end with Gordon and Flash. It feels like we're getting a bit more of a comedic but serious flash than the usual get up but im cool with that.

Also JK Simons as Gordon is still feeling good for me.


The issue with scripts being leaked and shit is that people dont think about how characters are going to sound or how lines are delievered hence why people think "oh shit this sounds bad!". Trust me when i say this, if you have a good actor who can translate bad script into good acting, it'll be alright.

Liam neeson in battleship is honestly a fine example of it.... then again that was battleship lele xd

Sounds good to me

It's just the Flash scene is similar to the Spider-Man scene in Civil War, but that's serendipity again, like how Zemo and Luthor both blew up buildings

It sounds fine.

More like Scarlet Quipster

>serendipity

Synchronicity, rather

The writers had no way of knowing what the other side was doing

Name one comic book movie villain who hasn't blown up a building.

Blackheart
89 Joker
Scarecrow
Yellow Jacket (in humor though the heroes blew up his building)
Iron Monger (again that was Tony blowing it up o blow him up)
Whiplash(the building was destroyed by Tony and Sam)
I don't think Red Skull did

Yeah well that's not surprising as thanks to the Justice League cartoon Flash is le funny fast man.

I wanted a more fun, lighthearted DC movie. But not like this.

This
Godamn, who wrote this? "Fun" doesn't mean just quips or jokes thrown out your face 20 times a second.
Animated JL was fun as fuck without quips, whete the fucking hell is Dini and Timm?

>I'm gonna be evasive and avoid revealing that I'm a superhero
>Okay I'll join the league of superheroes
Quality writing.

>BRUCE: Barry Allen, I'm Bruce Wayne.

It's like girls who play hard to get but if you charm them well enough, they start worshiping your cock.

Bruce charmed the fuck out of Barry is all.

I can already tell the writing is going to be too deep and nuanced for me to fully grasp.

Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

So this is how capekino dies

He already used super speed, cat's out of the bag

Both blew up buildings to make someone else look bad. That's specific.

This is a batman film. Not a justice league film.

>Ben Affleck while working on BvS

Nah

Are you surprised? Snyder hates everybody but Batman.

I find that hard to believe considering he has defended Aquaman in the past.

>I don't think Red Skull did

auto-destruct prison

you should probably try and confirm the existence of such creatures for yourself rather than relying on your laotian cave paintings for guidance

>Barry Allen, I'm Bruce Wayne

Was he alone?

He doesn't get to have friends.

Well uh, I hope you're wrong because DC's gotta sell the other leaguers hard in this movie if they want the solo films to succeed.

>He looks like a very attractive Jewish boy.

You don't go from "I don't want you to know who I am" to "I WILL JOIN YOUR SECRET CLUB" in the space of two seconds that's fucking retarded.

There was basically no REAL reason for him to be evasive in the first place other than for the sake of being secretive for secret sake.

He was trying to protect his secret, his secret got found out, therefore there was no reason to protect it further.

This line sounds so off

>He was trying to protect his secret
No shit I already addressed that.

There's no characterization here, there's no real motivation, he just has it as a secret because he's a superhero and that's a superhero cliche.

He doesn't go "i must protect my family" or "i don't want to be involved" or anything that informs him as a character or drives his actions it's just a pointless scene where he's pointlessly secretive for no reason.

>don't know bruce wayne

suuure

>Central City

>who the hell is Bruce Wayne.jpg

>DCU
>who is bruce wayne?

Well, it's an ad-lib.

Like Einsenberg's entire performance

...

>BRUCE: Barry Allen, I'm Bruce Wayne.

I hope this becomes a running joke

>thats a cliche
>im upset at that fact
>why not use these cliches

Ms. Lane, I'm CIA

The fuck are you talking about

That's not at all what that post said you retarded tripfag.

HA HA "RUNNING" JOKE HA HA HA

Yes but this is directed by Zack Snyder. He can't direct actors and certainly can't do humour.

When will WB fire Snyder so we can have good DC movies?

>CYBORG: Anywhere on land. They converge underground. Stryker's Island.

It's nice to see that they're still using Stryker's island. Really hoping that the prison ends up in there.

It's abandoned.

Is that Alex Hirsch?

It's okay because Bruce revealed his identity. Plus, who wouldn't want to work with Batman?

he watched too many porn movies so he thinks that they represent real life.

He has a secret identity so he can protect himself. Everyone knowing your identity and nothing bad happening to you is a Marvel meme. Why wouldn't they target you if they knew who you really were?

Having a secret identity if you're a human should be the default.

And hes post isnt saying muchbelse since has seemed to draw to the conclusion that we wont see any deep reasoning for agreeing to join Bruce and Diana at all. Most likely hes gonna get one with Cyborg or just later or earlier in the film.
Im not the retard who expects shit to be spoonfeed to me.

>I'm afraid you're looking for someone who looks a lot like me, but definitely isn't me. Long hair, kinda' hippie. He looks like a very attractive Jewish boy.

Who the fuck writes this shit?

It was an ad=lib

Well user wrote it for one thing. I mean is anyone going to ask for a source on any of this shit?

What's wrong with it? I thought it was funny.

That's because these aren't "leaks" and everyone remembers them from when they first came out. It's from the time all those people were invited to the JL set; they were given these two scenes, among other things, to see. You can find it pretty easily.

Simple: It's cringy and not funny.

>I thought it was funny.

It's cringey as holy fucking hell, even Whedon himself would toss it in the garbage without a thought.

>Cringe meme
What makes something "cringy" as opposed to funny? If you don't like it? I've seen lots of cringe stuff in my day, and this isn't it.

>He looks like a very attractive Jewish boy.
but is this false?

>I'm the world's foremost authority on what's cringy and what's not

OK, son.

I've seen lots of funny stuff in my day, and this isn't it.

desu nothing has ever sounded good to you fags

If he's attractive it's because he looks like a gook boy, not because he's a Jew.

Wasn't a large part of the BvS hate due to people hating it before it even came out?

>Batman smiles
Wrong, wrong, wrong.

i dont think so
i was hyped for it tho

autism autism autism

Did you really expect a casual who engages in "not muh" to read comics ever? Plus I'd love to see Affleck smile in the Batsuit.

Nope, people were hyping it up big time around here and seriously saying Marvel was finished prior to this film's release.

It's quite the vicious cycle with Snyder movies.

This is like what would happen if you forced Nolan to write a comedy.

I was talking about outside of Sup Forums though. Yeah I remember the "Marvel is finished" meme.

underrated post

That last part is a little bit funny

He's the Flash. He's used to making quick decisions.
