Topic: Everything DC (Movies, Games, Comics, etc...)

Just to clarify, Barbara in Gotham is Barbara Keane, Jim Gordon's fiance.

Barbara Gordon is Jim Gordon's daughter, so yeah no incest going on here.

I'm of the opinion that Grant Gustin needs to be cast as Peter Parker ASAP.

I've been watching the Flash. The first episode was pretty good, but the second was just incredible. I don't think it's the best show at the moment, but it's definitely the coolest and really fun to watch.

In other news, DC announced it's movie schedule.

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” directed by Zack Snyder (2016)

“Shazam” (2019)
“Justice League Part Two,” directed by Zack Snyder (2019)

Spoilers for Arrow "Sara" below.
Thea's back! She's being taught to fight by Malcom Merlyn and she's pretty good at it.Tommy's return was awesome, although it was also a sucker punch. I'm still upset about his death in Season 1.

I have to say Wonder Woman is officially my most anticipated solo super hero movie. A bit miffed that the movies and TV stuff are separate but might as well get over it now.

Ok my only question is why make a Flash movie when you can easily bring in The Flash TV show into the JL mix. What a waste of time and money honestly. I just hope they dont make that same mistake with Green Arrow in the JL.

Anyway I am all caught up in Gotham and I am really really enjoying Oswald alot. As for Arrow I figured that Thea would turn out the way she did but then again how could anyone not see it. Also I cant help but make a Superman Returns reference whenever I see Brandon Routh on Arrow.

I can't understand why we are getting Cyborg and Shazam before Martian Manhunter. Isn't MM one of the biggest JL members?

@iKhan
He is, but Warner seems to taking more inspiration from the New 52 era of comics. Every character who has or is in the new movies, aside from Shazam, is a founding member of the Justice League in the New 52. I would love to see a Martian Manhunter movie eventually since he's one of my favorite characters.

I wikipediaed that. Isn't MM a founding member of the JL in the New 52 too?

I find it really interesting how The Flash is basically doing right everything Gotham is doing wrong. Gotham seems a bit lost in trying to do too much at once. As a result we see too many shallow plotlines in each episode. It's even further bogged down with overly obvious references, and a seeming unsureness of the time it wants to have

The Flash know exactly what it wants to be, and it's giving every arc it's own time to shine. It seems a lot more coherent and well paced.

I like both shows though. Right now Flash>Arrow>Gotham

So I finally got caught up with Arrow and I like the direction they are going. I don't know but I am starting to like Thea now the first two seasons she was just blah if you know what I mean. I am also interested in seeing where they are going with Laural and if she will become Black Canary now.

So apparently in a very confusing way, DC announced that the TV shows Arrow and The Flash are not in the same universe as the upcoming ciniematic universe. This is evident in the casting of Ezra Miller instead of Garry Gustin for The Flash movie representation.

Just started up season 2 of Arrow on Netflix!

One episode in, and I'm already reeled back in, lol.

So Constantine is pretty good. Anyone else feel like it had two pilots since they removed Liv and replaced her with Zed?

There was no Sara in the comics iirc, so it makes sense to put the real Black Canary into her role. Sara was likely included as a way of explaining Laurel's transformation from the character we saw throughout Season 1 into the Black Canary.

Apparently she was written out of the show but I took it as showing that no one is permanent in the cast with the whole "eveyone dies by your side" angle they are taking.

Nope, he's a member of Justice League of America and was briefly a member of Justice League but not a founder and only shown in flashback.

From what I head, the fan reaction to her (because of the leaked pilot) was pretty poor and that lead to the decision to write her out. At the end of the pilot he talks about her running away and I thought it seemed a little forced.

@arronishere I felt like it was a waste to just have her disappear. She might not have been able to be a lead, but making her a character like Chas would've been better imo.

Going to have to use one of my day's off to catch up on Constatine.

Looks like Margot Robbie is going to be Harley Quinn.

@shingi_70 Wow she looks perfect for it even without the makeup.

Yeah the casting for Sucicide Squad seems to be so far.

Tom Hardy as Rick Flagg
Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn
Courtney Jai as Deadshot
Jared Leto as the Joker
Will Smith as Captian Boomerang
Jessie Esienberg as Lex Luthor

Seems like this will do alot to build the universe after BVS and it seems like it may take alot from Assult on Arkham.
