DC UNIVERSE.

Tue Aug 06, 2013 8:02 am

So the Gossip from the DC universe has pretty much confirmed the Man of Steel sequel that will feature Batman will not have any ties to Nolan/Bale Dark Knight.
But Snyder is working with Frank Millar author of The Dark Knight Comics.

The Batman in this new movie will be an Older Batman(Mid-Late 40's) Josh Brolin is the fav for the role..

Bale has spoken about The Dark knight though and says he will always be ready to don the suit,providing the origins are not damaged and that all the team are back together.....

2015 look forward to it....


In the preview for the next line of Superman/ Batman movies,The intro was given just before the House of El emblem appeared on the screen then it was followed by the Batman symbol shadowing behind it.

The intro was
" I want you to remember this Clark, in your deepest most intimate moments, I want you to remember my hand around your throat, I want you to remember i was the first man to beat you".
Now if your not familiar with it you may assume that's Lex Luthor speaking but it is not,It's Batman.

It's Taken from Frank Millars The Dark Knight Returns Comic. It is believed the next instalment on the man of steel will be a loose adaptation of that comic.

Not a fan of Snyder as a director. Not too impressed with what he did with Man Of Steel.

Not sure about Brolin. I'm excited to see an older Batman in a live action movie though. I hope they use the "The Dark Knight Returns" story arc. Really cool..

Oh! I see you said they are using The Dark Knight Returns story. Where did you get the info?

I will also note that the Dark Knight Returns features Carrie Kelly which is the female robin.

I can't see them using that though. As you said it's only loosely based on it.

It's been getting revealed during SDCC and Machinima.

Wanted another stand alone Supes movie first, before Bat V Supes.

What did you not like about Snyders MOS?

Snyder himself has said he did not like the ending (He wanted Zod not to die)
And hinted that he/they may have shot an alternative ending? Wait for blue ray?

Don't mind Snyder as you know what your getting. He doesn't try to dress things up as something that its not..
(Ang Lee's Hulk for instance)
Loved 300 and looking forward to the next instalment of the this year, trailers look awesome.

Game of thrones had a section at SDCC with almost full cast in attendance. Theyre currently set to continue filming on the new season and Robb and Catlyn Stark were in attendance. *Spoiler Alert* Now we know Catlyn returns as Lady Stoneheart and the series has differed from the books at some parts with Characters(Living/Dying) so could Robb Stark be given similar treatment to his Mother? Or are they just leading us astray? Time will tell I suppose.

The pacing of the film was well off.

Just seemed like he was trying to squeeze too much into it. It's clear now why he did that because he's making this film.

I just didn't feel truly satisfied when I left th cinema. To be fair though the Superman origin story is quite hard to make interesting. So he did well on that side of things. As with batman you have a lot more to work with.
