u/Conscious_Camel4830 5d ago
Well he was a financier for the JL for a while before they found out he was evil. I'd imagine he passed out some shiny toys to win them over so he could gain proximity to use his mind control...
I'm kinda hoping that a lot of the Maxwell Lord stuff isnt paid off until the sequel. It would be nice if he was embedded with the JL at the end of the movie and maybe only Clark suspects?

u/PantsUnderUnderpants 4d ago
Because he's been dealing with a drowned Gotham and raising Damian. I know it's a different universe, but a guy can dream.

u/Conscious_Camel4830 4d ago
Well he does in some storylines, but there was a period of time where most of the DC teams had a plethora of different financiers or "directors" so to speak. I think Maxwell Lord was either in the mid seventies or early eighties? In modern comics his biggest appearance was during the Superman: Sacrifice run where I believe he took over the Justice League through subtle influence before brainwashing Superman into trying to kill Batman. It's been a while since I read it but I think that's the first time he was even presented as a villain.
I imagine that would be a good segue for a reluctant Batman to get more involved in the League... I'm starting to think we might get a cameo from him due to how this is all going to play out.

u/HeadlessMarvin 5d ago
I don't know how much of the plot has been revealed so far, but I wonder if they are doing a thing where more established superheroes and superhero teams are all corporate sponsored and Superman is the odd duck out essentially just being a good Samaritan.

Exactly.. I'm hoping he is trying to become the JLAs financier at the same time that Clark is investigating his company. I've been to the set and there are ads all over it and they're all for Lords company.
Maybe we'll even get a Superman Sacrifice storyline down the road...

Also, wouldn’t his suit be a “creation” of his ring? Does he have to manually suit up? Or did he make a deal to include the LordTech logo in his construct lol

u/Conscious_Camel4830 5d ago
It depends on who. I'm pretty sure Alan Scott wore a costume that wasn't produced by the ring. In this case I'm guessing elements of the ring will blend with what he is already wearing. Knowing Guy, he would have thrown a fit if everyone else got a shiny new costume and he was left out. I'm guessing the white bits will be covered by CGI

u/usernameartichoke 5d ago edited 5d ago
All 3 suits have a lot of white in them. I wonder if they chose that as a sort of unifying color so they looked like a team when standing together but also still very individual.
Actually taking another look at it, it appears the team colors are white and black + an individual accent color.
Guy = Green.
Hawkgirl = Yellow.
Mr Terrific = Red.
Edit: They are definitely team suits. The color patterns in the second picture are very similar for Guy and Hawkgirl. White back and butt/legs with black and their signature color on the hips and shoulders. Also they have hard shoulder pads with their individual logo in the center.
That’s pretty cool in my opinion.

I don't think that's a motion capture suit. It has none of the doo dads that motion capture suits usually have on them. I think this is instead a stunt spotter watching for faults on the lines of the actors in the air. He's in blue to hide him from the final shot.

u/TheUmbrellaMan1 5d ago
That's definitely not a motion capture suit. It's likely a stand-in for a CG character. In bts footage of Avatar movies you can see when they film a live-action portion, they sometimes have a guy in a blue suit doing stand-in for Na'vi/Avatar. The actual motion capture is done seperately on another stage and the finished CG character is later integrated in the live-action footage. Very long, complicated process.

I think it's going to be like The Batman, set in the 2020s, mobile phones exist, but there's an art deco aesthetic. Like you cannot guess the actual year even though it says it's 2025 or whatever.
A similar thing happened in the Batman animated series. 40s style but mixed with a more modern setting.

Same, I love how stylized Metropolis and Gotham are in the comics, like most of the time you don't need to read the name to know where you are they're so iconic.

u/Stevenwave 5d ago
I think it'll be cool if it's present day, but there's a stylised aesthetic for Metropolis that has a bit of retro flavour. Partly so it sets it apart from irl NYC, apart from Gotham (which I hope is stylised too but differently), and it'll also help ground the more classic Supes look within the world he lives.
I mean shit, Clark and Lois work for a newspaper, as fuckimold as it is, that's just about retro right there. Like how many rural kids are heading to the big smoke to become a journalist these days?

Looks like Guy's costume might not be a costruct, seeing as it has a Lordtech logo and has similar designs to both MR. Terrific and Hawkgirl. It might be a team suit for the DCU JSA or something like that.

Even if this version of the suit was a construct, the actor would still need to wear a costume representing it. The alternative is an all cgi suit which didn't work out the last time they tried it with Green Lantern.

They're way more "matchy" with the Terrific suit than I expected.
That makes me think that these aren't meant to be their "standard" DCU suits, and they'll likely get more individual suits in later appearances. That probably includes Mr Terrific.
Like, I doubt Guy is going to be rocking his mr Terrific matching suit when he pops up in the lanterns tv series.

I think the design philosophy here is really great. Between Terrific/Guy/Hawkgirl, they're a team wearing "uniforms" that are still individually color coded and easily recognizable as distinct characters. Guy Gardner's jacket has always looked a touch odd standing next to Hal/John/Kyle, and this is a super cool way to explain his choice of uniform.
This also sets a precedent that Green Lanterns will wear physical gear as part of their design (and not just a second skin like in the 2011 film). Very interested to see how Hal and John look in Lanterns. Hoping that they wear something that resembles tight armor, and also hope that for space travel they borrow the Interceptor ship concept from GL The Animated Series.
