new episode 2nite
>>150205901Remember to sit your kids down to watch it with you!
>>150205901fuck glowies
I hope Gunn reels in the >Expository dialogue>Derailing statement>Derailing conversation that goes on too long>Designated straight man of the scene snaps to get the conversation back on tracka bit this season
Vigilante enjoyers report in.
where can I watch this live?
>>150205936pretty cool vulture
The Peacecycle is pretty dope.
>>150206366What, you mean that red-breasted swallow?
>>150206366>>150206530It's a chicken you morons
>>150206530>Red breasted swallow thats clearly a robin.
>fags don't know what a canada goose looks likeI fucking hate this board
isn't that Pidgey?
>>150206611It was clearly a sparrow dumbass
>can't even tell what a duck looks like
>>150205901Looking forward to this, hope this episode is a little better than the last two which honestly were kind of a letdown.
insane start already
>spent a whole episode just gassing up a CGI parakeetshit season
>it's a chris gets to be a competent badass episodeYeah, it was a good one this week.
I'm surprised they haven't tried to make Chris's shield a standard part of his kit by now
how come alt rick flag is like, lame
The end credit scene was gay as fuck.
>you will never have a bro that washes your pants and kisses you goodnightfeels bad
>>150206949because he's alt Rick Flagours is cooler
>>150206949That way no fans want this alt Rick Flag to come to the main universe replacing the cool dead one.
Called it last week, the universe Chris is going to is under a racist fascist governmentI'm betting he flees the raid by going back into the other universe, his friends think he's just trapped so they make a plan to save him, and Chris has to save Waller from his alt family.
>>150207079It feels almost too predictable. I kinda hope there’s some other interesting twist going on.
>>150207079his brother fucking decimated a helicopter, it's obvious they're the bad guys in this universe
>>150207079>Called it last weekNigger, people called this when the first trailer dropped, it was pretty fucking obvious that would be the catch
Any more cool toucan scenes this week?
>>150207250No, Eagly didn't even appear. We should get something good next week though since Argus is rolling out 30 soldiers and a specialized eagle hunter to apprehend Eagly.
>suicide squad 1 is (mostly) canon to the new dcu
So alt-Peacemaker was probably helping these terrorists, right? That's why he was disappearing all the time.
>>150207351Alt Peacemaker was a villain, his first instinct meeting Chris was throwing tracking ninja stars at him to rip his shoulders open
>>150207437Attacking an intruder in your home isn't villain behavior, it is normal.
>>150207437That wasn't his first instinct. He was questioning Chris at gunpoint and only attacked after Chris shoved him and attempted to flee.
>OG Suicide Squad events are still somewhat canon (at least June, Flag, Waller are)>Enchantress is canon to the DCU>Lived all the way to Corto Maltese>The Suicide Squad back then didn't remove her powerless like in the movie >possibly still alive huh, that's really interesting for a few passerby lines
I only noticed today that the alternate Earth is filmed in the same town as Stargirl.
>>150207079It's going to be so lame. I was hoping this would be a nothingburger, but it just seems inevitable now.
>>150207079What I think will happen is that Chris gets captured and resent to Belle Reeve where he meets Lex Luthor (whose one of the big cameos of the season), he has a direct connection to the pocket dimension technology and Gunn confirmed the season directly sets up the events of Man of Tomorrow (of which Lex in the main protagonist). Could also allow for the return of some TSS/Creature Commandos characters.I also think Superman is appearing in the finale. Gunn said there's a scene near the end of episode eight that he was really proud to write and shoot.
>>150207646>that fake ass towndidn't they also use it for Doom Patrol?
>>150207079>>150207214>>150207216>Literally no POCs in the alternate dimension>Housing and development agency>Chris' convo with his brother about how he loves him "no matter what" (which can be taken under the lines as him knowing about Chris' pansexuality but accepting it)Earth X
>>150207781I didn't watch Doom Patrol, sorry.
>chapter 1 dcu is called gods and monsters>creature commandos is about monsters>superman is about gods>peacemaker isn't about either of thoseshort chapter
>>150207781they use two different sets for a fake town, one of them was literally just a street though
>>150207931Clayface is there. Swamp Thing was supposed to be in development but Mangold jumped on the Star Wars hype train
>>150205939That's all this dude knows how to write. And I liked Peacemaker season 1, I don't know why his usual tropes feel annoying in this season.
>>150207795>Literally no POCs in the alternate dimensionThere's a latina among the Sons of Liberty and the hotdog vender is brown
>>150207973I kinda feel like part of it is that he was working on this at the same time as Superman
>>150207990>There's a latina among the Sons of Libertywell she was probably part of the sons of liberty to fight against the trio's regime
>>150207079Waller isn’t in this season so definitely not. Also the trailers for the rest of the season show Flag beating up PM in his faggy shirt from this episode. He definitely gets caught by ARGUS.
>>150207775Where was it said that Lex is going to be the protagonist of Man of Tomorrow? Would be awesome but I haven’t heard that.
>>150208297Gunn insists that it's not called Superman 2 but that Superman plays a major role and that it will still focus on the core cast of the first movie, so "Man of Tomorrow" probably refers to Lex.
>>150208297Forgot pic
>>150205901Does the song of Peacemaker reaching the installations of A.R.G.U.S. is a sampled of "The Night Begins to Shine"?
>>150205901Bird blindness is an genuine disability In Arkansas it also is categorised to the level of being abled to use disability parking and in 12 states you can get disability checks from the government My cousin also suffers from it
I'm digging David Denman on the role of a big brother, if this is really Eath X, it would be kinda shitty to watch the heel turn.
Alt Peacemaker sounds like a real jerk
GOD KNOWS I’VE HAD SOME ROUGH FUCKING YEARS
I'm not sold that the perfect reality for Peacemaker is Earth X. The Sons of Liberty are a villanous group and on this chapter didn't look less villanous.
Eaglybros, it's not looking good.
>>150208297>>150208338>>150208352should also be noted that like 2/3 images posted in association with the movie's announcement have superman seemingly working alongside luthor in his power armor. the current assumption is luthor's going to get his armor and he and superman are going to have to work together against a bigger threat like brainiac
>>150207559>>Enchantress is canon to the DCUif she shows up again, i hope she's wearing the witch hat look
Does Kinnaman stopped doing action? He looks way to skinnier since I saw him on SS.
>>150207559>>150209064Enchantress seems like a shoe in character for a creature commandos season then.
Harcourt fucking Rick seems out of nowhere, original universe I mean.
>>150209101Yeah they didn't interact and she didn't acknowledge him in Suicide Squad, and she barely mentioned him in season 1. This relationship thing was either a meaningless hookup for her or they just thought of it
>>150205901PeacemakerWhat a joke
>>150207041He's the type of friend who would suck you off just to cheer you up after a bad dayNot even in a gay way, he just that much of a bro and he genuinely just wants to helpPeacemaker doesn't deserve him
Will Rick Sr. mention Creature Commandos
why does James keep filming his wife with other men?
>>150209196Probably a way for Flag Sr to pressure her to turn against Pacemaker
>>150209101>>150209196>hurr why dose it not get mention in TSSBecause Gunn came up with it on season 1.
>>150209413I could not be in a relationship with an actress specifically because of this. Like imagine being Lois' actress' husband after all that footage of her being playful with the Superman actor
Will Rick Jr have a threesome with Harcourt and Chris?
>>150209744This was written by Gunn so obviously a three-way between Rick Jr Chris and Harcourt will be in the series finale. Gunn already said the final episodes were some of the best things he's ever wrote and directed. Chris will bang Rick Jr and Hartcourt 2 then go back to his universe and bang Hartcourt 1 and Rick Sr, then Vigilante.
>>150209744Canonically Rick Flag Jr is bisexual too so joking aside this is an actual possibility.
>>150205953any doujins yet?
The whole "it's bad because everyone is white" thing is going to ring hollow for a lot of fucking people when we have news stories nearly every week about illegal truck drivers plowing into people because they can't read English road signs and barely know how to drive to begin with, among other current events.>>150207973I think it's because the plot of this season is particularly meandering. It's episode 3 of 8, and it hasn't really amped things up yet. We just had the first action scene of the season with Peacemaker in it, and he's not even wearing his suit or using any of his own gear.>>150209082He was just the lead in a John Woo movie.
>>150205953
The action us great, is it because its R rated? or is it really that simple for a troma guy?
>>150209744I hope so
>>150209744no, it will be with Chris and Adrian
>>150210055Gunn always did good action
I just want him to get Eagly, go to the good dimension and just stay there
>>150206366>>150206530>>150206549>>150206559>>150206611>>150206695Did you guys actually like that retarded joke? That was apparently stolen from another show? But that doesn't even matter because it was retarded and unfunny anyway?
>>150210915>good dimensionYou know this whole thing is setting up to go >Surprise! This is teh evil Nazi dimension and if you thought this looked good you're eeeevilRight?
>>150211174Imagine if Gunn wasn't such a hack and it actually was just a good dimension and Peacemaker had to decide in the end that even though it's not perfect his clusterfuck rebooted dimension is still his dimension.
>>150210935>getting this upset about a dove
People calling it predictable but I guarantee 90% of people ITT would not have recognised the white ethnostate stuff if they hadn't read it on the internet
>>150209832https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/101589397
just watched the first 3 episodes of season 1 and not seeing the hype. its james gunn humor and banter turned to 11 and barely a plot.
>>150211340There is no hype. The show did worse than Ms Marvel. It's just sad pathetic Gunn shills trying to keep this DOA franchise on life support
>>150206943Much like Chris's Oggy hallucination, it's forgotten
>>150211355>There is no hypei dont know where you live anon but where I am a lot of people have been hyping this up pretty much since season 1 came out. Saying its the best thing DC has done in a while. Also on the internet I see people saying its amazing. Season 2 recently premiered so I thought id try it to catch up. What >>150205939 mentions is so blatant.
>>150207795>Chris' pansexualitywait whatwhich chris
>>150211371>Saying its the best thing DC has done in a while.People say that about literally every new DC release. It's the hard numbers that matter
>>150211332I noticed but only this episode. The huge mural of the dad in his hood made me realize and confirm
>>150211443Who gives a fuck how much money it makes, you're a viewer not a shareholder
So what do we think happened in Alt-verse?>Peacemaker didn't kill his brother>Not really a Nazi and still pansexual>But goes along with his Dad's plans because his brother is bought into the Nazi shit>His Dad uses some kind of weapon to wipe out minorities or turn all whites into Nazis>Peacemaker turns to pills to deal with the genocide he was a part of, and also out of self hatred of his gayness
>>150211332>it's revealed very early on that the show's plot involved an alt universe where everything is better for Peacemaker>his nazi dad is still alive and loves him and seems to be a big deal thereIt's so painfully obvious that you'd have to be literally single-digit IQ not to see it coming.
>>150211521No one's talking about money you stupid fuck. Those are views. No one is watching your shit show
>>150211612So?
>>150211612Why do you care about DC's viewership numbers you retarded faggot?
>>150211443It should be noted HBO Max in general has a pretty small audience in comparison to Netflix and Disney Plus
The black lady lost heaps of weight between seasons, I wouldn't fuck her yet but she's getting there
I’m getting really tired of being “conditioned” to see happy white societies as intrinsically evil. Doesn’t help that the opening of the first season had that asshole janitor repeatedly call Peacemaker a racist for no reason and insist that he kill more white people. I’m aware that could have been a clumsy setup for his dad’s reveal, but it really felt off the first time I viewed it.
>>150212180Because a society that is "happy" based upon the slaughter and oppression of billions of others isn't good
>>150212180But like, the Janitor is clearly shown to be wrong since Chris isn't racist.
>>150205901You can't make me watch a show starring that traitor, Zhong Xina.Fuck him and the bitch he crawled out of.
>>150212180Anon, the idea of an outwardly-idyllic society that's actually really fucked up when you think about it for more than 2 seconds is one of the oldest tropes in fiction. You aren't being "conditioned" (why the fuck did you quote this?) for anything, you schizophrenic retard.And the point of the S1 scene you're talking about was to be humorous in its absurdity since it's two people arguing about the merits of literally murdering people with their main concern being whether or not it's fair how many of them were white or brown instead of ya know being concerned that he murders people. Take your fucking meds.
How can the alt universe be under Auggie's regime? couldn't superman or some other metahuman just stop them without much trouble?
>>150212692Auggie (with prep time) absolutely bodies Superman.
>>150212692Auggie isn't ruling shit, and nothing suggests that.
>>150212180>I’m getting really tired of being “conditioned” to see happy white societies as intrinsically evil.you sound intrinsically evil, so maybe those stories have a point
I like John Cena and I want him to succeed, seems like a good down to earth guy
>>150209482if you think all that’s bad, imagine what’s like for emma stone’s husband. as soon as she popped her baby out, she started doing those yorgos lanthimos movies that are essentially arthouse porn and a month ago, she said she wants to fuck pedro pascal. i totally see why andrew garfield left her.
>>150211640only the snyderbros
>>150209482>>150213226
It’s happening.
>>150205939what if the straight man snaps but that only derails the scene even further?
>>150213334I love corensupes
>>150207079I hate it, the character development would be so much better for Chris if this other universe wasn't secretly evil. Its much more poignant if everything is selfishly better for him in this universe but he still rejects it in the end because the lives of his friends in his universe is worse without him and he chooses his real friends over that other worldWith the stupid secretly evil twist, it makes the choice so much easier and the development cheaper
>>150209932>have news stories nearly every week about illegal truck driversNo we won't. I think you warped into another reality.
rick flag jr. being a cheater is a fucking stupid development
>>150211339They really draw Batman like that supid webcomic. lmao
>>150205901Not watching a CCP apologist.
>>150211586I mean, the world could have been better because in that universe his dad was just a swell guy and not a nazi
>>150211669Didn't fucking everybody watch Game of Thrones though?
>>150209413>>150209482They get paid millions to fake kiss, I don't think it's that big of a deal and it's easy to compartmentalize
>>150213334Doesn't this give too much away?>>150213849Eh, I agree that would have been the more interesting option, but maybe the easy writing option has been taken because agonizing over staying in the other reality isn't the main thrust of the season and we'll move on to the story Gunn wants to tell more
>>150214022Yeah and it COULD be a universe where everyone has a 19" dong so everyone is happy and friendly because of that.One of these things we've mentioned is the logical conclusion that 99% of people with the context of season 1 would come to and the rest of them are just random speculation based on nothing.
>>150213849That went a little out of the window the moment he killed Alternate Chris.
>>150214130Don't be obtuse, it's entirely possible something else changed the timelines to make this universe better that wasn't the Nazis winning. As simple as Chris' brother surviving and that making Auggie a totally different person. No need for ad absurdum
>>150214258I think he's right; but most folks won't notice because most folks aren't autistic /pol/smokers who hyperfixate on race.Going through the ep, the only ethnics are the terrorists. All the civilians are white. Doesn't feel like happenstance.
>>150214258>>150214335There's definitely something going on with all the extras being white there. Cause then you go back to the other earth and it's a mix mosh of people. White Dragon probably succeeded in the other dimension. I don't know if it'll be straight up nazis or more like the klan took over. I feel like nazis are played out and the klan would be more in line with White Dragon.
>>150214335Oh I think it's pretty much definite it's going to be a "White supremacists are running the show" scenario. I'm just saying people who haven't picked up on it aren't drooling braindead retards and it's obviously the intended viewing experience that you don't know for certain yet. And having thought of other possible scenarios is still reasonable
>>150214034Until it gloriously shit the bed in the last season, I doubt it still attracts viewers
>>150214034HBO Max didn’t exist when GOT was airing
>>150211538I don’t think they genocided minorities, it’s probably just Jim Crow segregation.
>>150214076>Doesn't this give too much away?Not really, it could just be a short cameo like the end of Season 1. I highly doubt Supes will be super involved in multiple episodes
>>150213226emma stone gave andrew garfield herpes
>>150211443Tons of people dropped HBO Max because they gutted their content library
>>150214867I do think Lex will be a major character in the last three eps. Not only did Gunn confirm that S2 would directly setup Man of Tomorrow but the trailer showed that Lex's henchmen from Superman will be making an appearance.
>>150214894>andew garfieldwho would guys cast him as in the DCU. Hes way too old for a teen character nowadays
>>150214904I think you are reading too much into that. Lex might appear, but again probably a cameo. Dude's in prison so maybe Chris sees him in prison.
>>150214904The setup will probably be at the end explaining how Lex got out of prison
>>150214981I would cast him as Ted Kord for shits and giggles
>>150215152im pretty sure this guy is already cast as ted kord
>>150215237as far as I am aware, only his voice wqs heard post credits. Nothing's off the table with Gunn's dumb fuck approach to picking what is or is not part of the continuity.
>>150214981Jonkler
>>150215654Doesn't really seem that dumb fuck at all. Blue Beetle movie was pretty self contained. It'd easily transition. So were the Suicide Squad movies aside from their cameos.
>>150209482>>150214059Getting kissed by other guys on screen (even the sex scenes) is manageable but this nigga is actively writing these scenes for his wife. I like James gun and his movies but this does seem kind of cuckie
>>150215713I want to see Shazam and Black Adam made canon to the DCU.Only because the mental image of Johnson groveling at Gunn's feet for the 2nd chance makes me erect. Shazam actor immediately cutting all ties with roght wing politics would also be funny.
>>150215018Gunn did tease major cameos in the last three eps, it's why they were never released to reviewers
>>150215828Harcourt in Season 2 so far has done nothing but give the cold shoulder to Smith. Even the other universe Harcourt and Smith broke up. I'm going to reserve that theory until they end up fucking.
>>150214258I'm not being obtuse, you are you fucking moron. Go find any random person who's seen Peacemaker season 1 but not season 2, tell them that a major plot point of the new season is Chris going to an alternate dimension where him and his dad and brother are all rich and important and love each other, and ask them what they think that's universe's vibe will be. I guarantee you the vast majority of people questioned would come to some variation of the conclusion that the alternate universe is one where general society is more like Chris's dad. YOU are the one insisting that the less predictable outcome is the more normal assumption you retard.
>>150215832While that would be funny I think we could find a better actor for both characters. Dude was never a great Captain Marvel to me.>>150215879Cameos aren't a major role. They're cameos. I'm not saying we won't see Superman or Lex, but I doubt they'll have more than five minutes or screen time if that. Probably the same as the Justice League in the season 1 finale or Justice Gang in episode 1 of this season.
>>150214981Green ArrowBooster GoldPlastic ManI think he'd be pretty good as any of these.
>>150215946Maybe, although Gun has been saying the season is basically a direct prequel to the next Superman film, which implies to me that one of them (guessing Lex) is at least going to become somewhat important beyond a short cameo.If Lex appears, that would also mean returning to Belle Reeve, which would also allow for some TSS/CC characters to appear like a certain robot who loves killing nazis.
>>150214867>it could just be a short cameo like the end of Season 1I'm assuming it will probably be some kind of callback to the revised version of the JL scene from season 1, with Supes either once again showing up too late and Chris berating him for it, or showing up just in time to make a difference and save the day as an intentional subversion of the S1 situation.
>>150216027>showing up just in time to make a difference and save the day as an intentional subversion of the S1 situationThis is too good for this show.
>>150215832>>150215946Cast Cavill as Captain Marvel, and make the Rock's Black Adam canon by killing him off unceremoniously. It would be maximum kekage
>>150216027Or as a bookend to the beginning of the season when Chris was being rejected and bullied by the Justice Gang, but it's Superman who will validate Chris as a superhero at the end.
>>150216027(Alternate universe) Swetman going berserk in Peacemaker would be entertaining. Omniman decimating an entire alien civilization level berserk.
>>150214399I'm not sure, because there was a brown woman agent in A.R.G.U.S. so maybe they are not a world of racist but just one where civil rights movement never took off.
>>150216087>but it's Superman who will validate Chris as a superhero at the end."We all make mistakes, Chris. We all seek love and validation. It is what makes us human. You may have gone too far in the past, but that means you can slow yourself down now. Deep down, you are the superhero you always wanted to be."Then Chris kisses him in response.
>>150216196You got a better shot of her? Cause that could easily just be a white chick with a slight tan
>>150216224>Then Chris kisses him in response.Nah, probably just says some awkwardly cringe shit about Superman's harem being rad as fuck.
>>150216196>>150216243Might just be a tan woman. Chris' father, the White Dragon was a white supremacist. He visits a world where his evil father is heralded. That doesn't raise any flags?
>>150216323Superman can't be evil in an alternate universe
>>150216422Superman being evil in an alternate universe is possibly the most common plot twist DC has used in the last 20 years.
Why did he do it?
>>150211538how do you mfers come up with these retarded fucking theories
>>150217006>pants get dirty after you party>your buddy taking your pants off and washing them is considered a bad thingIs everybody here retarded or something?
>>150216422>>150216438Who said anything about Superman being evil?? Just because Peacemaker is wearing that shirt doesn't mean we're going to see alt-Superman or that Superman would be evil.
>>150217006I wish I had a bro like this. Whenever my bro pulls down my pants he tries grabbing my dick.
>>150215654>Gunn's dumb fuck approach to picking what is or is not part of the continuity.It's very simple. Superman is the first entry in the DCU... but Peacemaker season 1 is canon... and so is Creature Commandos... and The Suicide Squad... and Blue Beetle... and now Ayer's Suicide SquadBut the book Welcome to Metropolis is NOT canon
>>150217200I don't know why that first guy brought up evil Superman, I was just pointing out that saying Superman can't be evil in an alt universe is retarded cause they literally keep doing exactly that all the time.
>>150217300It's really not complicated at all if you're not retarded.Creature Commandos and Superman are both fully canon because they were released as DCU projects, and were always meant to be.Everything else is canon if they bring it up, is not canon if it's directly contradicted, and if they don't mention it then nobody cares.
>>150217300Loose continuity is best continuity. As long an entry doesn't contradict itself. I swear the cunts who are obsessed with continuity are lore fags who only read wiki entries of comics.
>>150213334Cena has the clothes from this episode and the blood splatter from fighting the Sons of Liberty. Corenswet held off posting this until this episode aired. This photo doesn't necessarily mean anything since if this set visit had Corenswet film anything, he would've waited until that episode filmed. Not saying Supes won't be in the season at all, just that this particular photo shouldn't be taken as definitive proof.Also it makes the most sense for Lex to be the big cameo/guest star since he needs to be cutting deals with the government to get out of prison, working on his powered armor, and that's shit that while it doesn't necessarily need to be in the movie, it would benefit from getting explanations somewhere.
Tim Meadows is hilarious in this. I hope his character doesn't get killed so he can keep popping up whenever Argus shows up.
>>150217388>>150217427Right because strategy worked so well with the last 11 DC movies
>>150217608Not even remotely the same situation, and you're fully aware
>>150217698Literally the exact same situation
>>150217300Personally, I'm a fan of Gunn giving normies a real comic book experience of that canon's a mess and you should focus more on enjoying if you like the thing or not.
>>150215654>dumb fuck approachshut the fuck up snyderfaggit
>>150217734Hopefully it works out for him. Doesn't seem to be working out for literally anyone else doing it but maybe he'll get lucky
>>150217608the only thing good about those movies was some of them got awesome merch for good characters that are being neglected.once again dc fucking cheats me out a prop replica helm of nabu. dc... your despicable.
>>150213226She is also fucking Yorgos
>>150217300Watching Gunn's DC is going to be like watching Das Boot isn't it?
>>150217608Continuity was not the problem with those movies lmao
>>150217797No one else has ever attempted what he did with Superman 2025. He said, "Here's Superman, you know his origin and there's other capes around. Fuck you if you don't know Mister Terrific. Try to keep up." And it was great. We don't need to spend 90 minutes out of a two hour long film seeing Guy Gardner earn his ring or Hawkgirl embrace being Hawkgirl.
>>150217006Spectacular.
>>150218152>No one else has ever attempted what he did with Superman 2025Because it's dumb as shit
>>150215832>I want to see Shazam and Black Adam made canon to the DCUI'd be down for Shazam being made canon because Grace Fulton deserves big paychecks and the first Shazam was good
>>150218241Seems to be going fine so far. Majority of people loved the movie.
>>150218298>Seems to be going fine so far>Superman barely made it to $600 million>got dumped on digital a month later and had its price slashed every week>No one gives a fuck about Peacemaker>Clayface is filming right now and people couldn't care lessYeah, sure is working great

>>150217469I hope they don't kill him off like these two, I miss their antics
>>150221263Was this comic any good?
>>150217704Not really, the main problem with those movies is that they were completely rudderless and constantly trying to course correct. Here Gunn is picking and choosing the shit he wants to preserve. He's keeping the Suicide Squad stuff because the second movie was positively received and that was always a soft reboot of the first movie. He's keeping Blue Beetle because it was also generally received well and was self-contained enough to be feasible and not really need any edits. He ditched Flashpoint instead of using that movie as the starting point to reboot everything because it was a complete clusterfuck and would have been a net negative to the brand if they kept the association.

>>150207795Yeah it's 100% Earth X.
>>150218051>same voice actor as Eagly
>>150222368I'm still hoping they are just misdirecting us. Like someone already pointed out, giving a moral evil family to Peacemaker is the easier solution for a conflict of choice the OG dimension.
>>150207973>I liked Peacemaker season 1Season 1 was all of those things though
>>150211700>I wouldn't fuck her yet but she's getting therekek
>>150211700she plays a lesbian in the show but in real life is married to a man. i thought leftists didnt allow non gays to play gays in films/tv? someone call biden
>>150212464>>150213955stay mad Zhang
>>150209064She dripped tf out
>>150217388>Everything else is canon if they bring it upHonestly, I don't think that's true.Like, sort of yes, but also no.It's in this weird limbo of pseudo canon, where you can assume that an almost identical series of events happened, but it isn't really canon.Like Peacemaker Season 1 is technically not canon anymore, as you could see when Season 1 Episode 2 showed clips from it but altered/reshot to change references from the previous attempt at a cinematic universe to the new one.It's kind of the same bullshit as what's going on in comics, when they do a reboot where "oh yeah, totally the old stuff is canon... Except it's like an amalgamation, and also it happened at a different time, and yeah that bit about those characters being married never happened, and their kids are different people who just happen to look similar and have the same names, but other than that it's basically canon".People are annoyed because this shit has always felt like overly convoluted and confusing garbage that only exists because corporate doesn't have the balls to pull the plug and make something actually new, and for a lot of people being reminded of it just instantly takes you out of the story.For me it's a weird kind of charm, like the entire narrative chewing the scenery, but you cant really be mad at people for losing investment when being presented with a story that has only slightly more consistency than the average Elon Musk product scope and timeline.
>>150217200>>150217363If you can accept that alternate superman can be evil, then you can accept that alternate White Dragon can be a force of good. How is not that obvious
>>150226902I'm not too hung up about it, like I can easily watch Peacemaker S1 and reconcile that it can also be set in the new continuity, just replace every mention of the Justice Gang with the Justice League. Same with The Suicide Squad despite a bunch of the actors in that movie now having different roles.
>>150217006fwinds
>>150213334I really hope they do "Of Thee I Sing" except with Chris instead of Tommy Mognahan
>>150215910You really are. Nobody said anything about the "more normal assumption." I'm just saying it's reasonable and not idiotic to have come to another conclusion or to have missed the hints at this point. You're just a total dick and I bet you being like this is why you've driven absolutely everyone out of your life and have nobody left who cares about you or would notice if you died.

>>150229736you're a good man
>>150218152>No one else has ever attempted what he did with Superman 2025Spider-Man Homecoming did the same thing.
>>150218241Pretty much everyone fucking knows Superman's backstory we don't need an hour of Clark growing up and becoming Superman.
>>150226902When I say everything else is canon if they bring it up, I mean individual details anon, not "they mentioned Shazam so everything from his movies is canon now".I'm talking like, Superman mentions Aquaman, that means Aquaman (the character) canonically exists in the DCU now.Honestly they're not very likely to canonize many things this way, since most of the events in the old DCEU revolved so heavily around Justice League characters who are being completely redone this go around anyway, so there's very little events that would even make sense to bring up in the new stuff they're making.
>>150227993lmao holy projection Batman, are you okay kid? Do you need a hug?
>>150230550If everyone knew Superman and his backstory then why did it fail overseas because he's not a known entity?
>>150229392Presuming the theorized twist that the Nazi's won WW2 is true. They might've just leaned into letting the actor keep thin since alt universe Rich Flag Jr isn't as hardened due to America not being at the forefront of the world anymore.

Accidentally met Eagly's actor near the pond last week.Chill dude, very fond of breadcrumbs.

if peacemaker was never assigned to the suicide squad in the other earth how did they get rid of starro and the bubberflies
>>150232861it's a vastly different world besides peacemaker's life, harcourt says something about the bombs being made out of some weird material and it's implied that they call their chemical compounds by different names in that universe. Those 2 things might've not even happened.
>>150232600That's a turkey, retard
>>150233188fuck you talking aboutTurkey's in Africa
>>150228974bump
Why do I get the feeling Gunn regrets killing Rick Jr.
>>150235632I hope he regrets killing Cptn. Boomerang.
>>150235654At least TDK became Green Lantern
>>150209293What are the chances nerdy alt!Rick says this line?
>>150235632Gunn feels like the kind of writer to kill characters for shock value then immediately come up with new ideas for the dead characters.
>>150236799Good thing he makes comic book moviesNobody is really gone
>>150236799Then he gaslights everyone by telling dead characters remain dead
>>150226902I see it more as not throwing the baby along with the bath water, the second Suicide Squad and Peacemaker were remnants of WB trying to only do a partial reboot but were self contained enough that they needed very little editing (in the case of the movie probably none at all) to work with the new stuff which is trying to start with a clean slate now.
>>150229900>>150229924I meant, Joel/Rick Junior's actor, someone said it in another talk-back and I hadn't seen it yet. Yeah, I'm sure Cena will end up looking like Jack Lalanne did when he was in his 70s and still going on talk shows and talking about getting your grandparents to work out>>150229642>>150229045>sons of libertyI always laugh when these poor stunt men or just extras that just look like rural, sad middle-age men always get hired to be canon fodder to make a series or movie star look good in a scene like this. It's like they don't spent any time doing exactly what Chris and Adrian do in a land fill, shooting up appliances or even just beer bottles with deadly aim. >>150232164>>150232208Idris Elba would break their budget. Gunn had to figure out some way to pay the wife more than she would otherwise make, but otherwise besides Cena, his only expensive casted actor is probably Grillo since Robert Patrick's quote is way less to what it was even from his Stargate days. Also, Stroma probably got screwed on his contract to what he should be making so if they end up using him in a movie, I hope his agent puts the screws on Gunn (and Safran).
>>150237428>rural, sad middle-age men always get hired to be canon fodder to make a series or movie star look good in a scene like thisGiven that this is very likely Earth X this was probably intentional. The weird looking dude and the malnourished old guy were pretty telling.
>>150237428>>150237505Yeah, the Sons of Liberty were played pretty sympathetically. They only killed the armed guard, they act in despair whenever on of their gets killed, they get scared, and they generally act human. If they were meant to just be mooks, they wouldn't include those elements.
>>150237428>extras that just look like rural, sad middle-age men always get hired to be canon fodder to make a series or movie star look good in a scene like thisTheir job is literally to be a jobber
>>150217272bro??
I'm kind of like Vigilante in some ways. He really resonated with me when he said he wasn't some pervert who enjoyed sex but still appreciated the experience to bond with his buddy
>>150240321For a remorseless sociopath that doesn't blink at killing kids, he's weirdly human in ways a lot of characters aren't. It's hard to articulate.
>>150237867Stuntmen can be really crucial to a good action scene, not just one where someone like Dwayne The Rock needs his ego fed to look good on camera to make up for whatever else is missing in his life. At least in the elevator scene in Winter Soldier, Evans was taught sufficiently good fight choreography to make it look real in close-ups and his stunt double was equally trained to do a good job to make the cuts seamless in transition. THAT's what an audience should be getting all the time. Paying, even if it's just in wasting time on a pirate rip, should never be just to see constant jobbing action scenes.>>150237505>Earth XActually, on TV shows, since they can't afford the budget and can't afford fight choreo on the regular (with a few exceptions like say Daredevil or say Spartacus), the cannon fodder or jobbers as the other anon mentioned, are usually middle aged, overweight guys - that's why you see so many fat cops or fat soldiers in action scenes where they don't get any speaking lines. I mean even video game actors who don't get speak lines who are the NPC in those cut scenes get treated and cast the same way.
>>150240675I think you misunderstood me, earth x is nazi earth. My point was that the sons of liberty may have been intentionally casted to look a bit "off" as a way to subtly hint at this.
>>150228974Harcourt in her underwear?
>>150229098First of all that fucking trash can was not supposed to be there. That's a major violation. This is argus, stuff like is unprofessional.
>>150229642The double tap at the end is what gets me. I keep forgetting Peacemaker isn't just guns.
So I guess this universe with the retcon of justice league to the justice gang, can also have different retcons. Like this suicide squad member.
>>150243754
>>150233359Turkey is native to North America dumbass
>>150236799I always kind of assumed that the actor requested his character be killed because he didn't want to do more after that due to how shitty Skwad was.
>>150243754or Gunn just hired his friend for two different characters
>>150244666I guess Cheech Marin, played three different characters in "From Dusk Till Dawn"
>Kills his brother as a child>Kills his dad at the end of S1>Kills himself at the beginning of S2>Will kill his brother and his dad again by the end of S2What does Peacemaker have against the Smith family?
>>150244666YepGunn is totally the same as someone like Adam Sandler, caring more about giving a pal a paycheck than necessarily picking the right person for a job.>>150241510nope, I think I understood you.I know what Earth X, even before the DCW did that cross-over, I have actually read all those comics, although I think Uncle Sam is a lame super hero.I mostly wanted to talk about how I think the people who get cast as minions, henchmen, and even as fodder in action scenes (cops, soldiers, prisoners in say a prison cafeteria scene, etc.) get a raw deal and are just meant to be old, fat schlubby background "crowd" effects
>>150244666It will be amusing as shit if TDK is still played by Nathan Fillion assuming he doesn't retcon his survival. And Harley mentions it when he sees Guy Gardner.
>>150243380Don't get these fan girl artists making Stroma look like a very feminized twink, much less making him looking like the ugly girl in overalls, who wears glasses before she gets her glow up in some stupid late 1990s early 2000s teen romcom.
>>150235654Same. I think he'd have fun with Digger.
>>150245233The way he's dressed in civvies really suggests that though, it's only when he strips to his underwear that you realize how ripped he is. I think the show dresses him like that deliberately.
>>150245233Not my fault that Stroma doesn't exercise his face muscles
Holy shit, I only just learned that Freddie Stroma is from England.
>>150246582I just learned that Joel Kinnaman is from sweden
>>150246121Does he have two phones?
so what's happened in Season 2 so far? any of it relevant to the wider DCU narrative? is it really a prequel to Man of Tomorrow or is that just marketing talk?
>>150244659more or less yeah, I know he had fun on the second movie but after the first one he knew he didn't want to be part of this ride for long
>>150248897Peacemaker interacts with members of ARGUS as fallout from the events of both season 1 and The Suicide Squad, and Gunn's Justice Gang appears briefly as a cameo. Other than that, the show's entirely self-contained so far.
>>150232164I don't think WB wants to pay up.
>>150243754>IM GONNA WORRY ABOUT THIS REALLY FUCKING HARD BECAUSE I'M A FAT AND ANNOYING REDDITOR FAGGOTplease fuck off forever
>>150229642>>150243569I was bothered when he didn't double tap the printer guy but then he did to this one here. What gives?
>Vigilante's actor's last name is Stromadid Gunn cast him because it has TROMA in it?
>>150245542Peacemaker is filmed in Vancouver, which is just north of Washington on the west coast, and the imaginary town is supposed to be in rural Washington, so the weather and scenery looks right, unlike times they film in Georgia claiming it's California or Africa, or some such - and it's not millions in CGI and on a soundstage. Adrian dresses the way a minimum wage slave under employed late 20s would likely wear in a rural environment, like Spokane or even a college town like Pullman, or anyplace in Eastern Washington state, which is way more like Idaho or Utah than it is like Portland or Seattle.
>>150241992Do you have the episode and timestamp for this?
>>150249344IIRC printer guy gotta a bullet, this guy only got meleed with the gun first and then bullets in the end
>>150205915The jump scare nudity in the first episode got me.
>>150248869Kek, good catch
>>150249062Gunn could get him for cheap maybe entice him with other movies or something
>>150249812I just checked and turns out the guy probably ran outta bullets in that gun
>>150251287>gets killed>gets cucked>alternate universe self is a dorkwhat did rick junior do to deserve this
>>150252046Cheat on his magic girlfriend
>>150252084oh right i forgot he cheated. yeah that fits
>>150252046He's doing his best.
>>150252084>piss off your witch girlfriend and now you and every alternate universe version of you is cursedRick fucked up.
>>150252084>magic girlfriendYou'd think an angry witch would be the 2nd person that wants Peacemaker's head the most in the universe right behind Rick Sr.
>>150244998It’s common for directors to cast people they’ve worked with in the past. Quentin Tarantino does the same thing and nobody has a problem with it.
