Superman/Batman Apocalypse Trailer

Hmm... Art style is not exactly what I expected. Guess I got used to the last WW DVD style – really like that movie actually.

I also wonder if we are only going to see the crazed SG and only a flash of the "real" character right at the end. That would be a big shame to me as I'm sure it's why many of us are enthused about this DVD.

Story boards and concept stuff about the new movie/DVD.

So I read an article with Bruce Timm that he does NOT have the green light for any solo female superheros... The studio was disapointed with the initial sales bubble WW DVD's so he is being forced to do male heros..

Pretty despressing if you ask me!

I guess the only reason he got to do this is because it has Supes and Bats...

Dunno if this was recent or an older interview, but I remember something like that being said after the low(est) sales figures for the WW DVD. HOWEVER, if it is that interview that you mean, it should be pointed out that:

1) It had grossed the least but it also had been on the market the shortest time
2) Since then, Public Enemies and Crisis reported even LOWER sales (and they featured Bats and Supe)
3) Those decisions are usually based on the chief idiot in charge at WB at the time. Based on the revolving doors those positions usually hold, all it takes is a regime change in that desk position to get a possible new 'open mind'

If the numbers to Apocalyse come in strong, perhaps it will give more hope for more heroines since this one features Kara and even WW pretty prominently. Still, the future mix will be heavy on Bats and Supe --- history shows they are the strong draw and WB has to pay the bills....

I have some good news.... and some great news.

The good news is I have a friend that works in my area for WB and have just finished watching Superman/Batman Apocalypse.

The great news is that it is fantastic! This movie follows the comic book (which is one of my favorites) beautifully. The look of the characters, scenery and a lot of the dialogue are taken directly from the comic. Summer Glau was terrific as Supergirl. The movie does alter from the comic book at the end so it is different... but different in a good way(I won't give away the ending). Overall I give it 8 / 10

Now onto the stuff that matters. As far as Supergirl is concerned, for those who have read the comic you know that she doesn't really do too much until the end. She uses her strength at the beginning as we get introduced to her but the ending (last 25-30min) of the movie is where she starts to shine. What actually surprised me was the fact that Wonder Woman & Barda had a few good scenes in the movie which is stuff not in the comic.

Although I have access to the film I would like to say that I will not be posting any clips until after its official release for 2 reasons.
1. I don't want to spoil anything for those of you who want to see the whole thing.
2. I don't want WB to find out and get pissed off with me, my friend (as much as I love this forum I won't risk his job) or this board for posting clips.
Once the film is released I will be able to post these clips, so you will have to wait until Sept 28. I hope everyone understands

I stumbled across a bunch of pics from the movie.
Sadly it was all peril and SG was getting owned... bad...

I am starting to get worried!
