[Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.
That's...impressive, considering that Jason Momoa is 6'4", which makes him considerably taller than all the other cast members besides Affleck (who he is likely also just physically larger than).
Wonder Woman should be the tallest and yet Batman is huge there. Then in the trailer, Aquaman towers over them all. I'm familiar with CGI creatures having inconsistent sizes, but these are all played by real people.
Zachary Levi has been cast as Shazam.

I at least hope they reference his REAL name in the film, like say "That Shazam is a real MARVEL" or something like that. Fucking copyright.

Fucking. Copyright 4004 BC apparently

That's the date of the creation of the earth according to young earth creationists @Yoshimickster
...OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH-man that flew over me, hot damn.
Wouldn't that put one or more of the 900+ year old biblical figures only recently deceased?
Trademark. Copyright doesn't expire from non-use ever since... well, the Superman vs Cpt. Marvel appeal when the judged ruled that DC didn't lose it's copyright because they didn't copyright some obscure Superman licensed thing...
There's nothing stopping DC from calling the hero Cpt. Marvel, as they have for decades after Marvel trademarked Mar-Vell, they just can't use it as the name of the film or comic. But apparently too many people are stupid enough to think Shazam was his name, so DC renamed him to "avoid confusion".
I for one can't wait for the Zelda film, where they'll probably call the princess Link...
I see you've read my fan fiction
It will be interesting to see the bulking program he undertakes - especially if he's comparable to Henry Cavill.
They could be going for a more "Greatest American Hero" look (which was pretty inspired by Cpt. Marvel) instead of the classic meathead look. I mean, they are putting him up against The Rock... he is NEVER going to measure up.
At least we won't have any confusion with Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. since Jim Nabors is already dead.

No, he's not. He's not singing at the Indy 500 anymore, but he's definitely not dead.
Based on this thread, I would assume Billy Batson.
It also looks like that Mark Strong is in talks to play Dr. Sivana.

No, b/c they (
So, if it all started at 5000 B.C. then Adam would have gone by ~4000. And, Noah was born ~150ish yrs after Adam died, and went on to live a long time, but would have been dead by 3000 B.C.ish. This is all according to a Creationist timeline (or at least my understanding of it).
The reason I put "they" up there b/c one can translate Adam from the Hebrew version is in a plural form, which may indicate that Adam was just a representation of Humanity not a single dude.
Probably more than you wanted to know.

Looks like Justice League's probably gonna suck.
There's been a pattern emerging lately -
Embargo lift time for JL?
Six. Teen. Hours.
Better than the Emoji movie, I guess.

Videostream tells me it's basically Kill Bill in the cold war.
This would probably be more helpful if I'd ever seen Kill Bill.
Heck, I still associate the synth/brass hit with Ironsides, not KB.

It’s a lively mix of spy thriller and action flick set in Cold War era Berlin, with an absolutely stellar cast. So... go watch it!
Justice League comes in at 1 hour, 59 minutes. Apparently WB mandated it be under two hours.
So here comes probably another incoherent mess that won't be a complete movie until the extended edition releases on Blu Ray. Wonderful.

Uh... the movie has to introduce three new superhero characters, plus the villain, plus supporting characters like Gordon. And then it has to actually do the superhero movie stuff, ie fight the villain and show discord among teammates until they all pull together in the end. And they want to pull this off in 119 minutes?
Don't forget build further on the universe and set up or tease Darkseid for a sequel that probably won't happen.
Maybe they'll take the road of Spider-man: Homecoming and just assume that we all get the gist of robot dude, fast dude, water dude and just get to the actual plot.
I wish. It'd be like they did their own individual movies before the team movie.
I wonder what that approach would be like.
Seriously. The Avengers had already established Iron Man, Black Widow, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Loki, Nick Fury, Hawkeye, the Tessaract, and SHIELD. That means the movie could start with the plot, introduce the Chitauri, and move to forging the team from the individuals. That only worked because the groundwork was already laid. And Avengers was 2 hours and 12 minutes long.
Justice League has a huge list of tasks to accomplish and no room to do it with.
