I don't think he did an awesome job after all though. His Lobo seemed off, the voice, the mannerisms, kind of wooden. I mean overall it was decent but I guess i just expected more. Also they wrote him like crap. This is a dude who can go toe to toe with superman and he's stuck in some jail cell? "Oh the bars have poisonblargbarfshit" yeah ok and he can also call his bike to him with a whistle, yet here he gets it stolen? and has to pull it to him with a chain? lol whatever.
>>221395378This thread made me spontaneously remember when this problem came up in a children's cartoon thirty years ago>how do we keep a guy that's as strong as Superman captive?>we toss him in a cell with two hot robot bitches to fuck his brains out, ply him with food and booze, and spray him with sedative gas if he gets really rowdyand it works for like a day because he doesn't even really think to try to escape until Superman informs him that he's in a prisonand that episode was rated for ages 7 and up
>>221395378When the direction itself is piss poor, no actor can save a movie. Momoa looks the part but that's about it.
>>221395378Momoa phones in every role
>>221395378You were such a huge fan you can't even spell his name.
>>221395543Maybe it's just because he never actually spoke English onscreen but his very first role felt like he nailed so well a guy that was an absolute fucking cunt yet might secretly have the tiniest sliver of good in him, which is a fun typecast to have and should have been exactly what Lobo needed
>>221395378>MamoaHe seems like he'd probably be a genuinely cool dude IRL, but he is such a fucking charisma void in everything I've seen him in.
>>221395378I don't think about lobo at all.
>>221395945The main man is pretty based as far as comics go.
He's exactly the same as Momoa Aquaman.For example at the beginning when at the bar the wholesome black couple running it are not feeling threaned one iota by him, and just regarding him as a cringe weirdo, and Lobo instead of getting angry and wrecking the joint for no reason decide to make witty remarks as some sassy queen and does nothing.Then next time we see him, he's fucking captured and just chilling. He's like that throughout the movie, Supergirl's sassy buddy clapping for her or making cringe catty comments.Sure he helps in the mandatory groupshot fights with the generic badguys but you and I both know that's not him.
>>221395631he got to bounce emilia clarkes tits around in bed back then, now hes a dad
>>221395670He was cool in a Minecraft funnily enough. I think he just needs the right actor to bounce off of. Jack black fills that role perfectly. The supergirl chick though? I don't think so.
>>221395378Do people really give a shit about Lobo? Why do you retards pretend to care about irrelevant C-tier comic book characters with 0 development? Is it just name recognition? Is that all it takes to get you excited?
>>221395631>died to a fucking scratchlmao
>>221395970>the wholesome black couple running it are not feeling threaned one iota by himEven the 'Brigands' don't show him any fear or respect and they above anyone in this movie should know just who and what the fucking main main is. Terrible writing.
>>221396005>irrelevant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobo_(character)Character developmentThe character had a short run as one of DC's most popular characters throughout the 1990sYou have to be 18 to post here lil bro
>>221396005Lobo always had a bit of a cult following. Its just dumb fun in the comics because the whole premise of the character is a joke. What if you gave superman the edgiest background possible, and instead of "truth justice and the american way" being what guides his morals its more like "Bitches and money!" Its like if you gave Lemmy superpowers.
>>221395995Minecraft is such slop but Momoa was the highlight there because he was so far against typecast, playing an absolutely insecure and pathetic loser
>>221396091More than just that though. They made him into basically a bio terminator. He can't be killed unless by very extraordinary means and even then he will likely regenerate, can track his bounties by smell over vast distances, is as strong (almost) as superman and is an effecient if crass murderer (since he killed his whole planet off). Also, he really likes space dolphins.They made him into an ultra badass and people loved it. Now though, oh can't show men being powerful so we'll just lock him in a cell. kekw
>>221395378Lobo needs an R-rating.
>>221395495Yeah this, they basically established that he is susceptible to gas attacks, it would have been easy for them to show him in some kind of glass area with some vapor sapping his powers but lolno they couldn't even be arsed to do a modicum of checking.
>>221395378oh look its jason momoa being jason momoa as always
>>221396408he's not, but it's funny how this gets thrown around so casually on /tv/ about everyone
>>221396005Lobo is supposed to be the Deadpool of DC. But what makes Deadpool charming is that he's admittingly a poor man's Wolverine and he's a loser at life. Remember the speech Logan gave Deadpool in the W and D movie? He cut Wade deep without his claws. Wade is a loser like his loyal demographic. Lobo was partially portrayed as a pathetic degenerate loser in the animated series. That's where he was good. But what holds the character back is the writer's desire to make him a leather chapped baddass. Instead of a superpower charming loser.

He's the only char DC has with that kind of gravitas.
>>221396005I give a shit about even lesser known characters. There's actually a few in DC that have real kino potential but I know it will never happen, and that's honestly for the better. Whatever WB touches now gets turned to shit.
He is literally a one man wrecking crew and got no respect in this trash movie. The bastiches.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf8veuKA_Ws
