At the very end of the film NiteOwl gives Ozy a shoeing after he nukes New York.

You sure? He certainly doesn't beat him up, anyway. I don't remember beating him up at all, just trying to, and failing, for a bit. Then Dr Manhattan shows up.

Well he smacks him and slams him into a wall. In the comic the whole point is he accepts he's right to kill all those people.

So doesn't beat him up; tries to, but doesn't really is my recollection. Then it's Dr Manhattan who accepts what's going to happen and doesn't stop it. Or something. It's different to the comic, but I don't really care, it works in its own way.

I loved Iron Man, some Bat Man, and Hell Boy.

I wasn't fan of the comics, but I really enjoyed Transformers.

But I am really looking forward to the Thor release. I always had a bit of a thing for blonde Norse Gods.

Natalie Portman is providing the eye candy, along with this vision of loveliness, Chris Hemsworth. Can't wait!

Woh, good article Gavin. Seems like it might not be as bad as I expected...but still overall bad. The only good of this could be a Marvel Pixar movie. That would rock my socks.
And Disney World might finally be cool again.

Was Dark City a comic book adaptaion? Seems like it should have been, loved that film.

My gut feeling is that this is really bad. Nearly every fan's comment I've seen so far is that if Disney try to insert Disney stuff into Marvel comics, then they will walk away from buying comics. :(

Guy Ritchie chosen to direct DC's Lobo
One of the dumbest characters DC had to offer.

The writer wrote Rise of the Silver Surfer which I didn't mind. I thought it was better than part 1 of the Fantastic Four. He's also a Simpsons writer.

WTF Lobo! they can't even do a decent Superman film why they going for such a shit character?

Image
Superman VS Lobo movie then?
I have the first season of the most recent Superman cartoon and they have to work together to get off this alien spaceship. It was actually pretty entertaining.

Death of Superman is the next Superman film. It's the one they should do dammit!

What about the Flash or The Question movies, even Supergirl but Lobo??

I think Flash would be a movie. The character is just so fun.

I prefer a JL movie the Flash works in small doses and with the banter between him and GL it'd be class.

People said the same about Iron Man in reference to the Avengers.
