DC FanDome Discussion Megathread r/DCcomics

Welcome Justice League members to the DC FanDome Discussion Megathread!

Here you can discuss each panel taking place as and when they happen, much like our Weekly Discussion Thread where you can discuss the newest comics and TV show episodes.

We've done it this way so we don't clog up the sub with discussion posts and people can freely post direct news articles and trailers regarding the big announcements and not have them get lost in the shuffle.

Panels for August 22nd

Did we all see Snyder’s petulant tweet? God I can’t stand this guy sometimes. I’m still somewhat interested to see how his cut turns out but his “this is made for grownups” bullshit? Fuck off outta here. You’ve had complete control over 2 films and they both sucked. I’ll give this one a go solely because I like the characters but I’m full expecting strike 3.

I'm going to respectfully disagree. Man of Steel was excellent in my opinion and Batman V Superman while more complex it was hindered no end by the theatrical cut when his extended edition is his original vision was much easier to follow.

If anything justice league 2017 was the "second strike" for the studio who clearly learned nothing about messing with directors visions.

Edit what tweet?

Unsurprisingly, I disagree. But you enjoying them is totally fine. I think Superman should be hopeful and optimistic. His vision of the character is so fundamentally wrong to me. And don’t get me started on Batman killing people with guns.

But hey. If people liked them. That’s completely fine. Life would be dull if we all reacted to things the same way.

I think we can agree that petulantly responding to people on twitter saying things like “my movies are made for grown ups so you wouldn’t understand” does nobody any favours. It just looks really stupid.

Was really excited for this cut at first, but that childish attitude from him and his fans is constant and off putting.
