That bill board from I Am Legend is about to become reality, according to announcement by Warner Bros at Comic Con. Batman and Superman in a team up film.
I heard rumors about a month ago that hinted of a non-JL Superman/Batman film. You can't go wrong $$$ wise, we're talking about two of the most legendary super heroes ever made. Wasn't sure myself if they were going to go through with it, but I guess this confirms it.
I hope they make it edgey... and focus on their philosophical differences. I don't believe they should like eachother, but be forced to work together because of a common enemy.
I can't wait to see Clark Kent try and tap some Louis Lane ass when Bruce Wayne is putting his billion dollar pimp on.
or the look on Superman's face when Batman serves up a dish of his own violent brand of vigilante street justice.
So which city will, again, be completely obliterated without people noticing the devastation? Gotham or Metropolis?
Which villain? Are we going to do Zod again--despite his demise? Luthor, again? Joker, again?
This is an interesting combination of characters, but I think Hollywood's all out of steam going into it. Not just Warners, but EVERYBODY. Kinda jaded after reading that Save the Cat! article on Slate.
"I remember a time of chaos. Ruined dreams. This wasted land. But most of all, I remember The Road Warrior. The man we called 'Max'."
... but I think Hollywood's all out of steam going into it. Not just Warners, but EVERYBODY.
Heard about this on the radio today - apparently Zack Snyder's up to direct again. Expect investment in characters --- not.
I thought, first off, that they'd be in partnership, but then Harry Lennix quoted Batman - "I want you to remember, Clark, in all the years to come. In all your private moments. I want you to remember my hand at your throat. I want you to remember, the one man who beat you." ... and then Snyder witters on about how it's 'beyond mythology' that these two guys are facing off ...??!!
Well, we already seen that SM's indestructible, so he's bound to win unless batman's also indestructible, whereby we'll then just get the end of MoS whereby both guys are indestructible ... until SM wins. Stuff.
Blame Disney - they're helping to kill the last vestiges of creativity.
The only way I'd pay to see this is if Superman and Batman just straight up fuck each other. Batcave, Fortress of Solitude, phone booth, whatever...full-on, full-costume, superhero sex. Just like, in a drunken fit of passion, or whatever. The rest of the movie could proceed as usual.
I think Goyer et al should consider it. If they wanna go down in history...
