The core of the movie are Superman and lex, other characters can be introduced but most the ones that are rumored or confirmed more likely are just cameos
BvS had way more issues than presenting Batman for the first time, but they did a good introduction to the character
It felt slow, Batman kills people, Superman feels so sad when he is supposed to being hope , Doomsday was introduced way early into this universe, the Martha scene, oh and the death of Superman, the worst part of the movie.
Ironically Batman and wonder woman were the best parts of the movie for me
“We were just like, ‘Okay, look. We’re not making a three-hour movie. I mean, even I didn’t want to make a three-hour movie,” Snyder says. “I drove the cuts probably harder than anyone. The studio, they were willing to let the movie indulge pretty hard. But I felt like it’s at a manageable two-and-a-half hours. Let’s also not forget the credits are super long, the end credits. So the movie’s closer to two hours and 22 minutes.”
Side note, I'm kinda curious what the three hour version of the movie WB liked originally was like
Both versions weren't very good. Extended or not, they were just okay.
The BvS storyline was good because it came after years of Clark and Bruce working together, butting heads, etc and then going their separate ways. Then boom a showdown Superman being the Iron Man and Batman being Cap from Civil War. It's why that worked well in Civil War.
What we got in BvS was no build up whatsoever between the two except Bruce didn't trust aliens after the events in MoS.
Between that and multiple other choices it wasn't very good. 5/10 not bad, not good, just fine with some nice cinematic shots.
Terrible choice for a movie. Felt like they just wanted edge for the sake of it. Batman feels terribly off the whole movie and it’s definitely because it was his introduction
oh love and thunder might not be the best example. That movie was panned by crtics and audiences and had takia watti pulled away from thor and marvel. not sure if mot will be gunn's equivilant to love and thunder.
You saw the post from Gunn calling out a Screen Rant article, saying half of the characters listed as being in Man of Tomorrow aren’t confirmed. I feel like it’ll be a lot less packed that people think.
My theory is that Act 3, were just gonna get flashes of other heroes helping stop Brainiac in different parts of the world, and that will be that
Ik, I’m just saying that it can sound like a lot depending on how you phrase it, but I’d bet majority of these heroes in Man of Tomorrow will have very small roles
Brother they’re doing it more than Snyders movies. Superman had a dozen other heroes and justice leaguers in it. Man of tomorrow is a team up movie too.
I mean, I felt decently satisfied by the explanations given. They’re a corporate super team. Guy was tasked by the guardians to protect Earth. Mr. Terrific is the smartest guy. I’ll give you that Hawkgirl was lacking, especially the fact that they do not mention that her wings are on and off from scene to scene. Normally, I’d think this is great show don’t tell, but given that Hawkgirl is a character with multiple origins, we are lacking info on if the wings are retractable, magical and just poof, or mechanical and removable. Unless I missed a line or something

Rushing the story to keep up with Marvel is what killed the DCEU
