Cry for him, Sup Forums. He's next.

sucks

shut it down, shut it all down

>implying that Seth Grahame-Smith is a good thing

>reportedly struggling to break new ground from the succesful TV show

Have they considered maybe actually adapting things from comics?

>Have they considered maybe actually adapting things from comics?

HAHAHAHA. As Kevin Smith says, the movie guys disrespect comic book writers. Obviously the comic book writers know the source material and write better cape.

>there is a legitimate chance that the TV show will actually be better than the movie

...

>try to differentiate from show
>Keeping iris black

It's too late, he's already dead.

damn it you asswipe I didn't want to have this scene spoiled.
least I still don't know the dialogue

...

>Struggling to break new ground from the successful TV show.

s1 of the TV show was based off a prospective Flash movie script. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I want more Barry/Eobard action.

>Movie Eobard Thawne will not be this hot

FUCK

When I first was getting into comics, I thought Alan Moore was an arrogant prick for saying that he "Would never watch V for Vendetta because it just couldn't hold up to his work." After reading V for Vendetta and Watchmen (before watching the movies), I realized that he was right.

>Alan "The Lizard God" Moore was right
>He always was

>If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Fuck off, i don't want more flash rebirth bullshit origin

WHY THE FUCK IS HIS SPEEDFORCE BLUE?!

FUUUUUUUUUCK SNYDER

>lets do what marvel does
>except in the middle of our fucking movie
>and lets have him take out one of the main cast

>tfw Miller only has about a single line in this scene

The movie would have to be really shit for that to be the case, but then maybe that would be par for the course for the DCEU.

Who didn't you put the fucking spoiler you dickhole muncher

WORLDBUILDING
Nah, its still forced and shit. Had movie Flash actually done anything in this universe than maybe this would have been cool

Im fucking mad about the forced Cyborg shit

Where's this from?

>blue lightning

Fuck this

>approached to write and pissibly direct
>pissibly

I want to see this pissable movie

Where do you think dumbass?

tbqh at this point DC should just stop with the world building shit and just do good standalone movies.

FLASH OF MURDER

I hope they don't do Zoom in the first movie that will just invite comparisons to the show. I'd rather see them do Mirror Master of Abra Kadabra with a big budget. Save Zolomon going Zoom for part 2.

I still don't understand why they're doing a fucking Justice League movie right now instead of doing standalone movies to build up to it first.
This whole Snyder universe just seems like it's doomed from the fucking start, everything just feels like one big corporate clusterfuck.

They want Justice League, because they're about 5 years out from Avengers and are just beginning to tread the waters of franchise.

However, Marvel's CEO's actually had a plan, while DC is monkeying around with their works on the fly to try to capitalize on the MCU.

They tried to be the darker counterpart, but, failing that, they're now apparently just full blown copying.

Now this isn't to say Marvel's Movies are all Kino, because honestly, most MCU movies are damn average to middling, but they come together and become greater than the sum of their parts.

The DCCU doesn't mesh well together.

They wanted Avengers level money with half the investment. It would have worked too if they spent that money on getting good film makers. Marvel had the advantage of nobody expecting shit out of Ironman or The Avengers so people kept being surprised that these strange characters were so fun.

>Marvel had the advantage of nobody expecting shit out of Ironman or The Avengers so people kept being surprised that these strange characters were so fun.

I don't see how you could call that an advantage. That was a huge risk that could have blown up in their face.

People keep calling Marvel films trash and formulaic, but I don't think they give Marvel enough credit for coming up with the damn formula that everyone else is now desperately trying to copy and failing at.

They tried that with Green Lantern and kinda Jonah Hex. Snyderverse is their second attempt.

>People keep calling Marvel films trash and formulaic, but I don't think they give Marvel enough credit for coming up with the damn formula

I don't want a formula in my fucking movies. Actually scrap that: I don't want a formula in my comics or novels. I don't want formula in any fiction I enjoy.

The reason why people call MCU films formulaic is because they are! Just because they created the formula doesn't make them somehow no longer formulaic.

>I don't want a formula in my fucking movies.
No formula in film making is like cooking without using a recipe; you can do it, but it would only work out if you are a damn genius.

Restaurants, both high-end and low end, succeed by offering a consistent experience. You know what you are going to get when you order off the menu. Both 5 star and McDonalds keep their outputs predictable. This builds trust, this allows the customer to know what he is getting when he gave them money.

Marvel offer that same consistency. You know what you are getting when you pay for a ticket. And you get to decide if it is worth your time and money to go watch it. That's why they have a franchise. That's why they WANT a franchise.

Oh easily, and I say that as someone who's not a huge fan of the show. I've watched a little bit though, and it's decent entertainment, and there are some action sequences I've seen second hand that blow me away that they were able to accomplish on a TV show. I think given their track record, DC's movie department will very likely turn in a shittier product with less respect for the mood and style of Flash comics.

Just fucking use Grodd. They know the TV People can't properly utilize him without not making him look like crap. They can do a Gorilla City Uprising and have it reflect with real world situations like the BLM Movement.

Too zany. You can't do something like Gorilla City in the cinematic universe they're going for, it's completely atonal for that grim serious atmosphere. The best we'll get with Grodd as an edgier version of what he is in the CW show, with the cannibal stuff from the comics. If we get him at all, he'll just be Hannibal Lecter in a gorilla suit. If this was the kind of universe where Plastic Man could exist, then maybe we'd get Gorilla City.

Grodd is pretty edgy, you fa/tv/irgin. Read some comics.

Grodd is the edgiest villain Flash has you plebian.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever read.

>while DC is monkeying around with their works

DC isn't doing anything. Those poor bastards have to watch as WB fucks up their properties. That's what annoys me the most about all of this

Thawne and Zolomon are edgier.

You know he praises the lizard god because within its own mythology its a fake god. So its a joke. He doesnt actually praise the fucking snake god, he said it as a goddamn joke.

Grodd literally eats brains.

> he'll just be Hannibal Lecter in a gorilla suit
Good, he'll smash stuff, cause a Rogue War using his mind control abilities and eat some brains

Thawne's edge can fall into Jared's Joker territory sometimes but I will give you Zolomon.

However whenever Grodd is mentioned, Flash shits his pants and that makes him unique in that regard.

Grodd spent half of his entire existence being not edgy in the slightest. Evil as fuck, but not edgy. The cannibalism thing is a relatively recent addition.

Thawne killed kids. That's comparable edge to cannibalism.

Chasing novelty is a young man's game. In time, you'll realize it's all been done, everything fits SOME formula. The best stuff is the stuff that picks the right ingredients.

Hey if they reboot their comics as often as they do, why can't DC just reboot the EU?

Because normies don't take to reboots that well
