I don't love or hate this choice but it's a very interesting one, nonetheless. Makes me wonder if they plan to fill out the cast with lesser known actors or if they'll really go for it and cast a few more big names. Whatever the case, I hope to see at least one or two actors I like land a role in this. I'm curious to see what CZ comes up with but I need a little more to get me hyped for this movie.

I feel bad for him on a personal level but he is still defending his work and that includes taking shot at his critics. No surprise that they would hit back. The biggest problem for me is not how he depicted Batman or Supes but how neither he nor his apologists can accept valid criticism. I still recall Deborah Snyder being asked what they learned from the reaction to BvS and she said it was that fans don't like to see their heroes deconstructed. You see, BvS is great... the problem is simply that the naysayers couldn't understand or refused to see its greatness. Takes like that don't garner sympathy.

I don't think the issue with MoS is so much about people taking issue with Superman killing as it is that the movie itself simply isn't that entertaining. After all, the general audience doesn't really care about canon or being faithful to comics...they want an enjoyable movie experience above all else. That is the difference between MoS and CM. Whether you personally like CM or not, the vast majority see it as a good time at the movies.

Well Chadwick is playing an African from a fictional country. If Shang-Chi were from a fictional Asian country, then I think it would be a non-issue as well. It's also not really same as with Holland or Scarlett because there is a whole history behind viewing Asians as interchangeable, which is based on ignorance and stereotypes. I would really want Marvel not to play into that, especially since many Asians would find it disappointing or problematic. Beyond that, I just can't see Yeun in the role at all. He doesn't strike me as an action star.

Given that WB has yet to show much interest at all in a Cyborg movie, I don't think they'll be quick to make a Flash movie centering a black Wally West. And remember there were rumors that they were planning to recast Iris, which isn't hard to believe given that they cut her scenes in JL, or at least allowed Whedon to do so. She wasn't my first choice so I don't mind a recast. I always preferred either Antonia Thomas or Kylie Bunbury, who is actually in Game Night as well. I imagine she'll have a good shot at the role, if they do recast and the current directors remain.

Most of the DCEU actors seem to be very loyal towards Snyder. Understandable since he cast them but at this point, they seem loyal to a fault. I recall Ray Fisher being asked who he'd want to direct a Cyborg movie and he said Snyder, lol. I feel for Ezra because he's in year 5 and still no solo movie. But I'm open to a recast. I'm fine with them recasting Iris as well, as long as they know she should remain a woman of color.

My thoughts exactly. Ezra doesn't have nearly enough pull or influence to delay a film because he doesn't like the script. I'm of the thought that WB simply isn't hot on this movie for whatever reason, is in no hurry to make it and is now indulging Ezra to see if he can come up with something to wow them. I doubt they have much faith in that though and are probably preparing to let him go. It's sad, really because this was the DC film I was most excited about (before BoP came along) and to know that there's a good chance it won't come to fruition any time soon is disappointing.

Hilarious that you think I was referring to you when I was just making a general comment about trolls. Hilarious, indeed. -

Who cares what the trolls think? Really? There's no reasoning with them.
