    James Gunn managed to explain what happened to Gamora in Guardians 3, I have trust that he’ll be able to do the same in Peacemaker season 2

    • @SeanWheeler100
      @SeanWheeler100 3 месяца назад +4

      We all already knew that was going to be the alternate timeline Gamora from Endgame. It was Endgame that explained how all the characters who died in Infinity War were getting their shows and movies. Hulk used the Infinity Gauntlet to undo Thanos' snap and brought back everyone who disappeared. Loki was about the variant of Loki from the Avengers Time Heist getting arrested by the Time Variance Authority for stealing the Tesseract. So it only made sense that the Gamora in Guardians 3 was the Gamora that was with the version of Thanos who followed the Avengers into the future after the Time Heist. It was only vague about whether Tony may have snapped Gamora away with Thanos' army, but obviously with Zoe Saldana confirmed to return in Guardians 3, the main timeline's Gamora dead, and Gamora fought on the side of the heroes in the Battle of Earth, obviously she wasn't affected by Tony's snap.

And Jason Mamoa is rumored to play Lobo in the DCU.

    I'm vacillating between not caring about most DC or DCU projects beyond The Batman 2 and somewhat interested in what's coming down the pipeline. However, I think a lot of it will depend not just on the stories told, but if this new DCU can stick to a direction and tone for more than 5 minutes.

    • @NRV0
      @NRV0 3 месяца назад +2

      Really? I'm actually the opposite lol. I never saw JOKER but I have seen The Batman and while I did really enjoy it, I'd rather have the traditional comic version of Batman(Ex. He older, experiences, and has his Bat family already) and Joker. With Gunn setting up the DCU I can already see people who don't really follow comic movies being confused with thinking The Batman is part of the DCU and asking why isn't it.

    • @vincentluong7550
      @vincentluong7550 3 месяца назад +2

      They have already said they won't be sticking to the same tone. That was the problem we had at the start of the dceu. Superman should not have the same tone as batman. Additionally if 20 different projects has the same tone it gets boring and tiring. Now I bet they do have a direction but some projects are going to be more loosely connected and some are gonna play a bigger role in establishing the big overall story like superman and probably latterns

    U can't do a full reboot on terms of an orogin story again with John Cena. So obviously the character development and growth that happened by the end of season 1 can't Just be undone or ignored. So let's just say it's the character coming with that level of development into DCU with a completely mrw story arc. So u might still want to watch season 1 just for his origin story and some important details. But I wouldn't want the plot of season 1 carry forward into season 2. The same is for Viola Davis' Amanda Waller

I know most people have seen origins for superman and batman, wonder woman Etc. but for me when new actors take on a role it changes a lot, and I want to see them start from the beginning.

    Why can't we just stop being so critical of everything? Whybdonwe have to keep acting like the things we do with real life actors in real life scenarios related to live-action films has to always align with fictional comic book storylines. "Well we can't do this this way because it didn't happen that way in the comics" like no shit, comics are fictional drawings that you can literally do anything with. When you have actors and hundreds of thousands of real-life people attached to a film they have to be bound by what we can control in real life. Get over it.

    It’s not confusing, you guys just want to know the whole plan and every detail about all upcoming projects so you can sit online and talk about it without actually seeing the movies. The DCU will have characters, these characters can be pulled from any and everywhere, who cares what makes sense and what doesn’t at this point, the DCU hasn’t officially started yet so why are you guys pre judging what’s what.. blue beetle and peacemaker are character that are being used in the DCU, pattinsons batman isn’t .. it’s that simple , movies don’t have to be released in a certain order to exhibit a correct timeline because time is fluid, there are projects that will be released out of order to tell stories that fit the over arching narrative. Gunn knows how to tell stories with characters that people are unfamiliar with and he loves comic books, that’s light years ahead of Zack Snyder who didn’t even read comic books at all. Just sit back and wait for the projects to be released and stop trying to connect dots that don’t go together
