@kirwan I'd genuinely want to see a Batfleck movie directed by Affleck. I'd rather it came out in the movies than on HBO Max as there's less chance he goes Snyder on it.
Movies Affleck has directed so far haven’t been too long, whereas that’s a Snyder trademark.
Yeah, I know, I hope his filmaking style hasn't been infected by Snyder is my point.

Whedon looks to have hired a PR team to repair his reputation, should be a fun few weeks of rebuttal stories.
I particularly enjoyed the the conspiracy theory that Fisher was an agent of Synder weaponising his wife's complaints of 15 years of infidelity. You can tell he was happy with his "We’re talking about a bad actor in both senses" line.
Less enjoyable was the creepiness of multiple stories about how he treated women. Having a 16 year old actress needing a rule that you can't be alone in a room with him is pretty low.
TL;DR Whedon is a scumbag.

@kirwan use to really like Wheedon, Firefly still one of if not my fav show, sad how loings these things actually take to come out
I really like Whedon's stuff, Firefly has always been in my top 10 TV shows of all times list. It's quite weird for me, I dislike Zac Snyders movies but think he comes across as a really good guy, Whedon is the reverse.
One thing I did agree with in the article, which I've said before reading the article (probably in here) is that I thought Fisher's performance was terrible so wasn't fussed he got less screentime in the Whedon version of JL.

You’d be in the minority, as he has been getting a lot of praise for his acting in the good version of the movie.
Whedon only called him a bad actor as he accused him of racism and abuse on set.

@kirwan reading through them now
Marvel just seems more committed and confident, even ones that have been received more poorly than the DC films...they dont can them, tweek the angle, change the director, maybe replace an actor..carry on with the plan
see the Thor film or Hulk
interesting, they mention "The Batman" film with the riddler, was the Battinson Batman film originally what was planned for Batfleck?

Looks like both versions had the Riddler as the main villian. He's the one that solves the anti-life equation, so he's key in the Snyder storyline.
Warner Brothers panic after a film makes 800 million at the box office, says everything.

@kirwan i guess this is originally from several years ago, and so Battinson's film might not have gone ahead if Batfleck's had
they even had a chance to try and resurrect it after the JL re release and people spend millions to Re watch it...nope

The current Batman is a rework of what was going to happen, Reeves came on board when Affleck was still Batman.

reading through it, my only issue is JL2 feels like one long montague, all of them seperate
Aquaman and WW's stories definitely feels like they should be part of their own solo films rather than interlaced with the JL
edit: hold on, Bruce and Lois hook up in this world?

That's generally how babies are made, yes.
That's certainly a bum note, IMO. But Batman certainly got around in the comics, just doesn't really fit with Lois.

does seem a bit out of character, and after superman had come back from the dead or was this supposed to have happened between SvB and JL1?
ok, JL2 was a bit....meh...but would have 100% watched JL3
Honestly the biggest thing that might have killed the idea...the fact that is was a superhero film relying on timetravel to beat the big bad after they had already "won"...a year after Endgame came out, you can see the reviews now regardless of how well it was done
would read it if they released it as a book

Yeah, be a good comic. Flash is always fucking with time (is in his next film too), so that's not a surprise.
