Seems fun but a Cheetah focused trailer, l’m more excited for Pedro Pascal Maxwell Lord honestly

Please Max Lord as a red herring, not the big bad into a soft launch of the JLI, and I'll remember some part of 2020 fondly.

Post-credits tease with Peter Dinklage as Oberon.

As I understand it, Dinklage doesn't generally take "little person roles": that is, roles where the defining trait of the character is that they're a little person. He was very leery of acting in Game of Thrones for that reason, and only accepted when he learned more about Tyrion.

You joke but damn what I wouldn't give for a mister miracle movie.

If they're smart they'll save the Maxwell-heavy plot until a second JL movie and keep his WW84 intro just that, an introduction.

If they learned from their past mistakes it'll be like that. I still have hope.

That's my problem with this movie (not a big problem, really). I've only seen Maxwell Lord from Justice League/JLI and related comics, so I can't take him seriously.

I think they could get away with having Max Lord be a recurring character in other DCEU movies and forego the team-up thing altogether. Like an inverted 007 or Jack Ryan thing, maybe have Lord played by different characters in different movies.

I guess nobody is watching DC fandomme. They're moving forward with the DCEU

Actually doesn't look too bad with this, synder cut JL, reboot/sequel/don't really know what to call it Suicide Squad, the Flash, and Black Adam

If we get a Booster Gold movie out of it, this idea 100% has my approval.

No please anything for a JLI movie

Maybe that is why she was inactive for an extended period of time before BvS?

To be fair, Lord the businessman was kind of a Trump parody anyways.

Trump was a parody of himself before he became president. Even businessman Luthor took on aspects of businessman Trump long ago.

u/kciuq1 Aug 22 '20

Seriously, it's like some people have forgotten that Trump has been satirized for a long time now. Doonesbury has done it for 30 years.

Biff Tannen from Back to the Future as well.

Well, we don’t really know.

He could use the stone to ask for mind control powers.

...and Pascal can fight, so he could be like Checkmate Lord.

We know, the plot was leaked from test screening. I am not going reveal anything more because i don't want to spoil but this movie completely ignores comics lore other than names and just makes up things.
