The tone, style, and visuals just seem more GCS. It feels seedier, darker, and a little Paul Dini irreverent.
The ladies aside from Montoya seem much more morally ambiguous.
No Oracle.
And...Harley.
That's kind of the bare minimum though, and they don't even have Oracle in it.
Does that really seem like something WB will do going by how they are approaching this movie and the material? It's like expecting Pattinson's Batman to fight Joaquin Phoenix's Joker.
I assume Harley will stick around enough to make this a franchise if it's successful. Is she even confirmed for Gunn's Suicide Squad? I don't think she's ever been officially confirmed to come back.Why make it a Sirens movie when Harley presumably won't be sticking around? I mean she ends up back on Task Force X.
The times they were members were also generally not well-regarded BoP periods.
One to one. No. I never said that. Did i? I said as much as it's possible. Not using any of it is kind of sad and stupid. Especially, since the source materials can have a lot to offer.like i said, if don't get this from the main universe. Where are supposed to get it from?
Young justice or dcau isn't a one to one adaptations either.
We still haven't gotten an xmen in any of their costumes, yet. I would have loved to see logan in his uniform.alas,it ain't happening. (Ofcourse not every costume can be translated i know, for eg:-scarlet witch)
spoilers:end of spoilers
Don't know if this counts as a spoiler but some of the Joker reviews are saying that the movie leaves things pretty open-ended in regards to whether it is a standalone or whether it is part of the DC cinematic universe.
Some of them are even hinting it goes out of its way to set up some larger universe elements.
Also, Harley was in a PG-13 Suicide Squad, will now appear in the R-rated BOP and then will appear in presumably a PG-13 Suicide Squad sequel again. Don't see why Black Canary and co. can't make the jump to PG-13 and more kid-friendly DC movies as well.
Sure, there are. But, expecting something that fits mainstream image is not inconceivable . For example, wanting a superman to smile while saving the day in the main universe is not bad. Snyder didn't do it. He didn't give a chance for cavill's charisma to shine through. Now, we might not even get a superman period.
I mean, i would love for clark to do a rescue having a smile like all might, here. And it would fit any version of the character. It wouldn't matter if its golden age, silverage, new52.. Etc.
Joker is different beast. It is not marketed as a main universe movie. But, a standalone elseworlds which can be expanded upon by the creatives later on. Bop is said to be main universe movie. These are supposed to be live action counter parts of comics characters. It's just like how i wouldn't want a comicbook or similar superman in Darknight trilogy because it wouldn't fit realistic world nolan created. I wouldn't want bale batman as mainuniverse of the character. It is pretty sad that main bop we are getting is so radically different.
It was so awesome seeing aquaman in his costume.It even reminded me of 90s/dcau aquaman except for the harpoon hand. It was freaking fantastic. I would like more of that in the main universe. Not, whatever this is.
Snyder's Superman smiles when rescuing a little girl in Mexico. Anyone who thinks we won't have another Superman is naive.
The main audience doesn't give a damn about what the regular BoP roster in the comics. Just like they didn't care that Antman and Wasp are founding Avengers or that Nick Fury was originally white. The Birds of Prey tv show had a lot in common with the comics and no one is going to tell me that was a good adaptation just because Oracle, Huntress and Bla0ck )Canary were in it.
