Lea Seydoux as Catwoman and Jessica Chastain as Poison Ivy please.

Add this to the chalk board.

Oh my God.

Actually this shitshow might be great

 

[Corpsepyre]

Shit, people. I thought you'd be happy. DC is upping the game with female-led superheroes, or villains in this case. This can only be good, no?

 

[geomon]

Gotham City Sirens was fucking awesome. Yes please.

 

[SpideySenses]

So they have enough confidence in Ayer to helm a second movie and yet they didn't have enough confidence to let his vision of the first movie even be shown in the DVD cut. I don't get it.

 

[Boke1879]

It made that money in spite of Ayer.

So?

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

You want late 40's Bruce Wayne to be fucking an early 20-something Selina Kyle? No fucking thanks. We already had The Killing Joke tackle that fucking poorly...

Who says Batman is gonna hook up with Catwoman? This can be an all women lesbian orgy. That's what the fans want.

 

[Rastafarian42]

movie is going to be garbage af

At least Catwoman and Poison Ivy will be casted well most likely.

 

[Ross61]

All the great female characters and they choose to push Harley Quinn

Harley's their most popular female character, especially amongst women. It's really a no-brainer.

 

[Glass Rebel]

regardless. He did it. Its on his resume. Not sure what is so hard about that to digest.

Nobody said it was "hard to digest". It's just regretful.

 

[Boke1879]

IMO. They just need to let Ayer and Margot do their thing. They really fudged by getting too involved.

 

[Alienous]

So?

So you can stick these characters in anything and it'll make bank. No need to stick with directors of bad movies.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Shit, people. I thought you'd be happy. DC is upping the game with female-led superheroes, or villains in this case. This can only be good, no?

Have you seen the last 3 DC movies?

 

[D4Danger]

so David Ayer is going to making this sort of crap for the next decade. what a waste.

 

[icespide]

if there really is some "Ayer version" that he championed but got shit on, I don't think he would be so quick to sign up for another one.

at this point just accept that the theatrical cut is what Ayer wanted

 

[shira]

nowhere to go but up for DC movies at this point right?

There is always a lower level of hell waiting for us

 

[NYR]

that's even worse

We didn't get Training Day Ayer. I can feel it this time.

 

[Discotheque]

Gross. I don't wanna see what Ayer has in mind for poison ivy and the other chicks

Looking forward to bright tho tbh

Anyways it's freaking shameful that WB is only 1 year into their cinematic universe and they already have 2 female led projects in the pipeline

Meanwhile at marvel......

 

[icespide]

that's even worse

you said it, not me

 

[J_Viper]

I'm guessing this takes the second 2018 slot now that Flash stalled and Batman is 2019

Eva Green for Catwoman

So you can stick these characters in anything and it'll make bank. No need to stick with directors of bad movies.

DON'T TALK SHIT ABOUT STREET KINGS

 

[SuperStiltzkin]

Selena Gomez as Catwoman

Nah. Selena Gomez still looks way too young. She just can't shake that babyface off.

 

[Corpsepyre]

Have you seen the last 3 DC movies?

Yup. I enjoyed MoS and BvS. Thought SS was weak.

 

[Elandyll]

A comic book title much like Age of Ultron, Winter Soldier etc?

Slightly oot... Who drew that cover? Liefield?
Holy sh* at those hips (Ivy) and overall proportions (everything else)

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

All the great female characters and they choose to push Harley Quinn

Who make that bread tho?

 

[Messi]

Olivia Wilde as Catwoman please. Please.

 

[Metalmarc]

Oooh, hmmm wait Wrong David, was thinking Goyer.

My bad.

 

[Kayhan]

Margot Robbie is perfect as Harley Quinn and David Ayer has shown he can make good movies so, sure, lets see where this takes us.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Eva Green as Selina Kyle is also something I'd be down for. Don't cast some twenty-something, aim for someone around their mid to late thirties.

 

[Boke1879]

So you can stick these characters in anything and it'll make bank. No need to stick with directors of bad movies.

They movie made bank. He directed it. Probably had a great working relationship with him too. These people don't care what critics think. They aren't paying the bills.

 

[Nyanmaruz]

Oooh, hmmm wait Wrong David, was thinking Goyer.

My bad.

Exactly.

 

[Oddduck]

The studio just need to let Margot and Ayer do their thing honestly.

I don't know. What exactly is Ayer's thing?

Here's how his directed films have averaged on Rottentomatoes.

Sabotage - 20% (2014)

Suicide Squad - 26% (2016)

Street Kings - 36% (2008)

Harsh Times - 48% (2006)

Fury - 77% (2014)

End of Watch - 85% (2012)


I feel like David Ayer has directed more bad movies than good movies.

 

[Ross61]

Slightly oot... Who drew that cover? Liefield?
Holy sh* at those hips (Ivy)...

It says the artist right there..... lol

But they're also developing a Deadshot Solo with Will Smith.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

We've sunk to the fan-service waifu level of comic book movies.

 

[Discotheque]

I will forgive him for his shitty movies and Suicide Squad tho if we get Eva Green and any combination of the 3 ladies in that huntsman movie

Street Kings and Harsh Times are better than those scores would have you believe. Sabotage was pretty bad though.

Harsh Times and Street Kings are quite under-rated though.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Being a white man in Hollywood really means that you can only fail upwards. Holy shit man.

Upwards, complete with unlimited chances and excuses. Must be nice

 

[Dark Ninja]

What percentage of the "movie" will just be a music video.

 

[AuthenticM]

awesome

 

[Kinyou]

Eva Green as Selina Kyle is also something I'd be down for. Don't cast some twenty-something, aim for someone around their mid to late thirties.

Eva Green would be pretty great. Should get short hair though.

Upwards, complete with unlimited chances and excuses. Must be nice

His movie made a shit ton of money. You really think he only got this second job because he's white?

 

[CloudWolf]

Have you seen the last 3 DC movies?

This is like The Sonic Cycle. It's truly fascinating to watch.

 

[NYR]

Gross. I don't wanna see what Ayer has in mind for poison ivy and the other chicks

Here's his catwoman:

His Ivy:

 

[Replicant]

So Harley, we really are "Gotham City Sirens"!

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I will forgive him for his shitty movies and Suicide Squad tho if we get Eva Green and any combination of the 3 ladies in that huntsman movie

You are such a weak man.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Anyways it's freaking shameful that WB is only 1 year into their cinematic universe and they already have 2 female led projects in the pipeline

Meanwhile at marvel......

The most tragic thing is that they have fucking Scarlett in their roster and won't give her her solo-movie.

 

[Slayven]

Who make that bread tho?

Marvel proved if it is good, people are receptive to anything.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Has the writer only done stuff that has yet to come out or is there anything note-worthy that she's done already?

 

[Boke1879]

End of Watch - 85% (2012)


I feel like David Ayer has directed more bad movies than good movies.

I'd rather him make his own movie and fail, then have the studio do whatever mishmash they tried to do with Squad. I even thought squad was ok, but you could definitely see the differences in tone throughout the movie.

If you don't have anything meaningful to contribute to the thread, why post in here at all?
