@Ronan3Accuser - Why is axe throwing growing in popularity? A mom and pop business just exploded with this "sport."

@Ronan3Accuser - I don't know. It's odd, is all. What next, flat-head screwdriver throwing? lol.

@Solarkalel85 - I saw a video of someone doing the axe throwing, missed and almost hit someone in the crowd behind the target board.

@Luminus - holy f**k.the fecking eegit.😂

@Doomsday8888 - I suppose, but any reports of reshoots for a DC Film scare the Hell out of me. Two films with reshoots? We've seen what promises are worth. How many good films are left? How many stayed that way?

Reshoots destroyed Suicide Squad and Justice League. How can we be certain they haven't destroyed Aquaman as well?

@SisterSunday52 - A dumb @$$ story, weak VFX and an indulgent director who feels compelled to make everything GANGSTA destroyed SS. Pretty much the same can be said for JL except for the GANGSTA part.

@SisterSunday52 - @SisterSunday52 - You keep blaming the studio my point remains that Ayer was the wrong choice from the get go. His abomination of the joker and compulsion to make everything so STREET, HOOD and GANGSTA had no place in the DCEU. These were his efforts and like Snyder shows massive self indulgence and fan base neglect.

He turned Joker into a love lorn pimp for Christ sake and you stand to defend this? I am not talking about the novelization because those things are sometimes written after the fact and they have grounds to improve upon things, I am talking about the movie, which from start to finish was garbage.

As far as Justice League goes, Yea I believe it was unwatchable. Just seeing Snyder explain so much about it on Vero not only shows his own indulgence but it shows something very important that you seem to miss. If you have to keep explaining something to people that means one of two things-A: The movie was too smart for people to understand or B: It was not smart at all. You know what, BvS was far from being a smart movie. With all of his symbolism he should of focused more on characters and telling a good story rather than some hidden subtext.

Snyder's could not get his head out of his @$$ and opted to keep Superman brooding yet again in his third movie outting. Even from the theatrical movie you can still see hints of what Snyders movie would have been like since there were hints at how gloomy they all were, case and point.

Wonder Woman: After all this time brooding over the death of Steve Trevor
Cyborg: Brooding at the monster he has now become
Aquaman: Brooding because he his is not accepted by either worlds and apparently drinks alot
Superman-......
Batman-..... Yea nuff said.

@Atomicockroach - I was just about to freak out.

Reshoots, especially for a DC Film are a death knell. They don't make the film better. They make the film what they think the studio wants and, as we have seen with Trailer Park's Suicide Squad and Frankenstein's monster Justice League, they have no clue what we want.

One reason DC Films "can't seem to go right" is because Zack Snyder shows his stories, but they never tell you, in actual words, what they're about. Then people misinterpret Superman as a nihilistic emo mass murdering sociopathic amoral villain and Batman as the Punisher. They think the films are dark just for the sake of being dark, etc. because the film doesn't TELL them what's really going on.

The biggest reason, however, that the DC Films don't seem to go right is because of reshoots. It's because the studio wants a Marvel movie and hire trailer making companies and an unprepared Joss Whedon to make it for them, which leads to films that are near unwatchable (Trailer Park's Suicide Squad and Frankenstein's monster Justice League) they don't know how to leave well enough alone.

They hire directors to provide their own take on a film, throw it in front of test screeners who want a movie that focuses more on action and humor, because they have been conditioned to believe that's what makes a Comic Book Movie. Then the studio forces the director to cut out the story and character background and development, and film more humorous and action scenes, or hires someone else who doesn't know what they're doing to fix what, more than likely, isn't broken and we get the trash that's supposed to be "better".

The worst thing is, more often than not, the producers zip up and everyone acts like they "saved" the film and the director, who was shut out of the creative process in post production, is the "talentless hack" and "their film would have been much worse". Much worse my sexy half Latina ass.

A trailer making company and a Joss Whedon who is given little time to look at a story before he's forced to change it cannot make a film better than those who have devoted years to it and are passionate about their work. I have evidence that the story of Suicide Squad was better than the Theatrical and Extended Cut of the film. It's called The Official Movie Novelization. The characters feel more comic accurate. You spend some time with them. They aren't good guys saying they're "bad guys". They ARE bad guys who learn to trust each other and to trust their captors, and band together as a team, even though they all serve the main villain Amanda Waller. It would have been rated R, but it was a good film. Zack Snyder's cuts of his films have been historically superior to his theatrical cuts. No. The films were good, then reshoots, brought on by studio interference and Warner Bros'. betrayal of their "Director driven" reputation, gives us Trailer Park's Suicide Squad, Frankenstein's monster Justice League and, if they haven't learned their lesson, (and judging from the fact that they were considering Michael Bay to direct a film of theirs, they haven't learned their lesson) we'll get Alan Taylor's Aquaman.
