Wonder Woman: The questions that arise after seeing the film

sivertime — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 15:38:23 +0000

Wonder Woman goes out today to the cinema and brings with him his lot of questions! Here is a small list of questions that remain unanswered at the end of the movie!
Today is a day to mark with a white stone. Because it is of course today that landed on our screens Wonder Woman, the fun and powerful origin story of Diana Prince, THE most iconic super-heroine that is. And as much to tell you right away that the film proves worthy of the character! But if he explains where he comes from and how he came into contact with the world of men, we must admit that he leaves us somewhat puzzled as to some of his elements. This, in itself, should not surprise us. After all, Wonder Woman is first and foremost a superhero film that is part of a much larger universe where other protagonists like Batman, Superman and Darkseid evolve. So inevitably, We had to expect some of our questions to remain unanswered! Here is a small list of the ones we ask after seeing the film. Attention, however, the editorial of melty wants to warn you: it may be that some spoilers slip into the sequel!
Did Zeus really create the world? It is one of the elements of the film that leave us the most perplexed. For the Amazons, which were created by Zeus, there is no doubt: the god of Olympus is at the origin of all life. Or at least, it is more or less so that Hippolyte, Diana’s mother, presents things to her daughter. Except that, well, we are not going to lie, there is little chance that this is the case. So who are Zeus and Ares, the two gods that are mentioned in Wonder Woman? If one takes into account the universe DCEU and what one knows, one can imagine that these two are in fact of the same nature as … Darkseid and Steppenwolf, the two villains of Justice League. This is of course only conjecture, but that would explain however their powers and those of the Amazons.
Steve Trevor is obviously the first man to set foot on Themiscyra
How is it that no one has discovered Themyscira before Steve Trevor? This is another question which, in itself, is not overly important but which still titillates our curiosity. For it is clear that Themiscyra remained hidden away from the world of men for hundreds of years. For millennia. Now, it seems that Steve Trevor is not doing anything very special when he enters the protected area of the island, if not … just crashing and having a LOT of luck . But then how is it that no one else, during the thousands of years since the creation of Themiscyra, discovered it, at least in the same way? It must be believed that it was the destiny of Steve to crash on the island and to reveal the real world to Diana …
What happened to Doctor Poison? Well, here we go back into the territory of the spoilers! So watch out, you’re warned! In the final battle against Ares, which is a big surprise for us, Dr. Maru, the faithful assistant to General Ludendorff, has just missed Diana’s thunderbolts. But our superhero ends up sparing the bad guy , who then completely disappears from the film . Did she survive the Dantesque confrontation between Wonder Woman and Ares, or is she one of the collateral victims? Impossible to say because his fate remains absolutely uncertain. But if she has survived, we may think that two things happened to her: either she understood her mistakes and, after having been afraid of her life, Has preferred to withdraw from any military conflict and has stopped making poisons; Or she remained faithful to herself and continued in the path of evil. Perhaps we will have answers to this question in the sequel to Wonder Woman !
Why can not Diana return to Themiscyra? When she was discovered in Batman V Superman , Diana clearly explained that she had spent the last 100 years in the world of men. And indeed, when Hippolyte said goodbye – attention spoilers ! – she tells him that she must definitely bid farewell to her home. But why ? Is it because the island is so hard to find? Wonder Woman, with her powers and immortality, however, has the means to find her if she so wishes. Or is it simply because in walking in the world of men she rejected that part of herself that allowed her to live on Themiscyra. Anyway, it seems our superhero can not go home anymore …
Diana no longer donned the Wonder Woman costume for a century
Why did she turn away from humanity? Wonder Woman allows us in part to understand the evolution of Diana in the DCEU , while leaving some open questions about it. As she tells us at the end of Batman V Superman , Diana preferred to let humanity fend for herself. Yet, in the film Wonder Woman , she seems determined and determined to protect them. So what were the precise reasons that finally forced her not to put on her super-heroin costume? Why, for example, did it not intervene during the Second World War , the most deadly conflict in our history? This is very contradictory with the character! Hopefully we will have more details on his defection, whether in the Wonder Woman sequel or in the Justice League! What do you think ?

Wonder Woman: What consequences for the DCEU and the character of Diana?

sivertime — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 15:31:53 +0000

The Diana we follow in Wonder Woman is not the same as that seen in Batman V Superman. So what does his solo film teach us about his evolution?
Shield hanging on the back, sword in hand and hair in the wind, Wonder Woman has landed today on our screens to tell us his original story and his first steps as superhero . Except that in fact, this is obviously not the first time we pass the powerful Princess of the Amazons. Diana Prince unveiled in the eyes of Batman and Superman in the well-named Batman V Superman , almost stealing the spotlight when she jumped in the middle of the action to help them fight Doomsday. But it was not known by what trials the superheroin had passed, what struggles she had had to lead and how disillusionment had been numerous for her. For, remember, before taking action, Wonder Woman has long hesitated, Joining in the struggle against the monstrous creature of Lex Luthor only once convinced that it represented a threat far too great to be ignored. But why did the super-heroine, who is the same kindness and compassion, have so long appeared to be indifferent to what was going on around her ? The answer is obviously in the movie Wonder Woman and in its terrible context, namely the First World War and its millions of dead. Did she seem so long to lose interest in what was going on around her ? The answer is obviously in the movie Wonder Woman and in its terrible context, namely the First World War and its millions of dead. Did she seem so long to lose interest in what was going on around her ? The answer is obviously in the movie Wonder Woman and in its terrible context, namely the First World War and its millions of dead.
Without you spoiler the film Patty Jenkins – it would still be a pity – the editing of melty must still draw your attention on one of its most important elements. When Diana leaves the island of Themiscyra where she grew up free from any conflict, she is motivated by a single desire: defeat Ares in order to free men from her influence and end all wars. Except that she will quickly realize one thing. Ares is not solely responsible for the massacres perpetrated in the world, and men are equally guilty of the sufferings they inflict on one another . And they do not really need a god of war to help them.
Only Wonder Woman, who grew up on his journey on the front and in contact with Steve Trevor, also succeeded in distinguishing the good from the human being, which manifests itself in all sorts of forms. Let’s say it’s in her nature. And even though it is capable of seeing the evil of which men are capable, it succeeds just as much in distinguishing what is good in them . That is what drives her to protect them. But then why do we hear him say, especially in the trailers: ” I wanted to save the world, but the closer we get to it, the more we see the darkness that inhabits it .”? And above all, why did she tell Bruce Wayne at the end of Batman V Superman: ” 100 years ago, I turned away from humanity “?
In fact, one can imagine that after saving the world once, Diana simply felt overwhelmed by the history and the multitude of conflicts . Maybe after the First World War, she hoped that she would not have to put on her armor to fight the worst horrors … before losing her illusions in every new war. And perhaps she simply thought that it was time for the world to learn from her mistakes and to save herself from herself, leaving her costume and mission out of spite. What would explain why its existence has remained secret for all these decades! And it would have been necessary to await the emergence of a non-human threat and devoted solely to destruction – aka Doomsday – to convince her to return to action . As for the death of Superman, which deeply affects Martha Kent and Loïs Lane, she may have served as a catalyst to decide to join the group that Bruce Wayne seeks to mount. Because this time in Justice League, which will necessarily establish connections with Wonder Woman and Batman V Superman , the danger will not come from man, it will come directly from the stars. And there, Diana will have no choice but to take up arms again! What do you think ? She may have served as a catalyst for her decision to join the band that Bruce Wayne wants to set up. Because this time in Justice League, which will necessarily establish connections with Wonder Woman and Batman V Superman , the danger will not come from man, it will come directly from the stars. And there, Diana will have no choice but to take up arms again! What do you think ? She may have served as a catalyst for her decision to join the band that Bruce Wayne wants to set up. Because this time in Justice League, which will necessarily establish connections with Wonder Woman and Batman V Superman , the danger will not come from man, it will come directly from the stars.

Batman: Matt Reeves director, what to expect from the movie?

sivertime — Wed, 03 May 2017 15:43:58 +0000

Matt Reeves as a director of Batman, that’s exciting! Especially as it gives us some tempting clues about how he plans to approach the film.
Well, it took some time, but that’s it, things seem to settle for the solo film of the vigilante of Gotham! His career has so far been saddled with bumps, between the rumors of Ben Affleck’s defection, unsuccessful scenario and difficulties of any kind. It was even believed that Matt Reeves, the director chosen to replace Ben Affleck at the head of Batman, had decided to leave the project . In the end, this is not the case and the director of The Planet of the Apes: The Clash and his suite and Cloverfield is determined to battle the batman and his opponents. But what could he bring to the film and the character? The best thing is to ask him directly, What the Los Angeles Daily News did. And you may be surprised to learn that Matt Reeves , who is absolutely a fan of Batman and his adventures, compares the world of this last one he created through the two films in the trilogy Planet of Monkeys he was in charge of. He began by reminding us how much he likes the two franchises: ” It is very strange to be involved in the two franchises that I liked most when I was a child.” I was obsessed with Batman when I was Child . ” Compares the universe of the latter with that which he created through the two films of the trilogy The Planet of the Apes of which he was in charge. He began by reminding us how much he likes the two franchises: ” It is very strange to be involved in the two franchises that I liked most when I was a child.” I was obsessed with Batman when I was Child . ” Compares the universe of the latter with that which he created through the two films of the trilogy The Planet of the Apes of which he was in charge. He began by reminding us how much he likes the two franchises: ” It is very strange to be involved in the two franchises that I liked most when I was a child.” I was obsessed with Batman when I was Child . ”
And what interests him the most in the character is his very human and tortured side, on which he may well linger in the film Batman . ” What I find very interesting about him is that, as a superhero, he is not superhuman, he is a person, a tortured soul struggling with his past, Who is trying to find a way to live in a world where many things go wrong and that is trying to reconcile all that , “he said. Before comparing the character of Batman to that of Caesar, the hero of The Planet of the Apes . ” He’s a very powerful character, just like Caesar can be .” There would therefore be similarities between the vigilante of Gotham and the chief of the primates. The success of Matt Reeves’ films stems from the fact that he is able to bring to life incredible protagonists, with their strengths, but especially their weaknesses and weaknesses. At Melty, it is therefore expected that the film Batman will support where it hurts and underlines the very human, and therefore fallible, character of Bruce Wayne . Matt Reeves’s future feature film is as fascinating as his other works. And above all that it honors the character of Batman! In the meantime, we will soon have the opportunity to judge the directing of the director thanks to The Planet of the Apes: Supremacy, Which he also compared to a western . Do you think Matt Reeves is the right director for the movie Batman?

Logan: Hugh Jackman would have liked a different ending

sivertime — Thu, 16 Mar 2017 18:26:17 +0000

Hugh Jackman lived his last adventure in the skin of Wolverine in Logan. Was he in agreement with the end of the film?
CAUTION – If you have not seen Logan yet, this article contains quite important spoilers and we would not want to spoil you the end! Still there, you could not resist and you rushed into the dark rooms to discover Hugh Jackman’s latest adventure as Wolverine . A film directed by James Mangold that will remain engraved in our minds, so it was cool, although the end was not frankly a Happy Ending. Yes, Logan dies after an impressive battle, under the tears of X-23 aka Laura his daughter. A rather difficult end to watch that was not necessarily the first choice of Hugh Jackman who told Yahoo: “L ‘
He continues : “But I said ‘let’s stay open, maybe the end will be more powerful if he lives … James was always certain about how the film was to end and finally he was right. Unlike a human figure, this is what is most poignant for someone supposed to be invincible, to die and to say to each other ‘that’s what it is’ . ” We agree, the end of Logan is hyper-striking and the scene was worthy of the mutant, a beautiful end offered to this emblematic character. In addition, the end of Logan had already been teased in The Wolverine so it would have been a shame to change it! What did you think of the end of Logan?

Batman: Joe Manganiello “Deathstroke is exactly what I was looking for”

sivertime — Thu, 09 Mar 2017 18:03:09 +0000

For Joe Manganiello, no doubts: the role of Deathstroke that he will endorse in the film Batman is the one he was looking for!
Notably known for Magic Mike and True Blood , Joe Manganiello will soon play the super-villain Deathstroke in the movie Batman (who found his new director) . But for the actor, this choice is not due to chance and this role is exactly what the latter was looking for from a recent interview. Questioned by Robert Irvine Magazine, Joe Manganiello explained “There are several superhero and super villain roles that have been offered to me but that was not what I wanted. Deathstroke is the perfect role, Search ” . Needless to worry about the appearance of this villain in Batman: the actor himself thinks that the latter suits him!
Joe Manganiello then explained “This is my character, an exciting character, and I have the ability I think of offering a great villain” . What reassure the fans who would be afraid of a super-villain a little too minor to face the famous black knight . It must be said that there was something to be worried since after the departure of another director of the Batman project , the film seems finally on the tracks under the direction of Matt Reeves. But before discovering the new reboot of the hero (after having been explored by Christopher Nolan or Tim Burton) it will be necessary to wait a little more since Batman is planned on our screens only for the ” Year 2018 after Justice League or Wonder Woman . What do you think of this interview?

Kevin Smith, director and author of comics, would see the Deadpool director direct the film Batman.
It was a bad news month for fans of DC Comics: Ben Affleck will not realize the Batman movie . Since then, many of the theories about the filmmaker who could take the helm of the future adventure Dark Knight . Kevin Smith, director of many popular movies of the geek community but also comic book writer would like to see him as the director of Deadpool , Tim Miller, lead Batman. The man said in a video “Who I’d see? Listen, I’ll say it until the end of time but Tim Miller. Give it all, he Deadpool and now he does not Deadpool 2. Give Batman Tim Miller, he can do anything ” .

Batman, which connects the hard knocks , do not answer no doubt the wish of Kevin Smith and its realization seems to compromised moment.

Batman: The film victim of a new blow?

sivertime — Tue, 10 Jan 2017 17:22:42 +0000

The development of the Batman film is a bit on the move at the moment. And if the rumors of a new blow are confirmed, it could take a long delay!

Decidedly, the DC Comics films are a bit in pain! The Flash has lost its director twice, first with the departure of Seth Grahame-Smith and then with the abandonment of Rick Famuyiwa, and has obviously still not found a replacement. And then there is Batman . Batman , we are sure to be in full development before we say that, no, nothing is won yet . In short, we are a bit in the dark, especially since we tend to have more bad news recently than good. The latest rumor dated implied also that the role of Ben Affleck in the production of Batman could be challenged , which does not exactly reassure us about the state of the project. And now we learn that the film would have suffered another blow that could push the studios to push its theatrical release. Yes, really, there would be almost enough to tear your hair! According to Batman-On-Film website Film production Batman would have indeed been postponed for a few months and therefore that actually begin in the summer of 2017.
It does not sound like that, but if this rumor is confirmed, then this delay could have an impact on the release date of the film. It had been more or less confirmed that Batman would land on our screens in the second half of 2018 but if the production date is actually postponed, given his superhero film nature, it is also the date output that could experience a change . What to expect that the judge of Gotham does not return solo by at least the beginning of 2019. So of course, the editorial of melty wants to clarify that it is still Here only a rumor. And even if it were true, the films that fall behind are often legion, which does not prevent them from landing then in the dark rooms. After all, it is preferred that Ben Affleck , producers and the rest of writers take their time to concoct a film worthwhile – and worthy of Batman – rather than offering us a story sloppy and poorly written . Especially with Wonder Woman , Justice League or Aquaman , we will have plenty to occupy our minds for the next two years! Which of the DC Comics films do you expect with the most impatience?
