NFT: Snyder steps down - Whedon to finish Justice League

Finally some one who has a clue how to do a Super Hero movie!

What took Warner Brothers so long? Whedons first "Avengers" is one of the best Comic Movies of all time.

DC just a got a huge shot in the Arm.

what a great development for DC.

and the first two posts are just excited about the franchise. Well, alright.

What took them so long? Jesus man, try reading the OP.

But the man replacing him is a huge step up in direction(and I don't just mean camera angles). DC Fanboys will love this.
Whedon is good at things that have missing like Continuity and Plot Character development, not to mention some humor.

and Let Joss put it together. He is already writing scenes because the Zack thought it needed more. Or do they want another rushed dumpster fire like Suicide Squad?

Odd that Whedon agreed to do this. He wanted a break after Avengers 2 because of the pressure of putting together a movie with multiple heroes. Now he is back with even more pressure to replicate the success of Marvel.

I heard the same thing about Whedon. I guess the money was too good to pass up.

I can't even imagine what he's going through. I have a daughter near that age, and I don't even want to think about it.

My God, what a horrible tragedy.

That's true about Whedon. He said he had a mental breakdown over it.

As to why he's doing this, this is probably more about helping out a friend in need.

to count their screen time instead of just acting as a part of a whole (like Avengers) you have Avengers 2 Waste of Ultron err Age of Ultron.

And this is based on what?

All of this stuff about Whedon stepping in is also probably being vastly overblown. I seriously doubt he's coming in to re-work the film to the extent that you guys are hoping.

It's a huge challenge for any writer and director to service a bunch of characters in a movie. It's been a problem for the Star Trek movies, too, but those movies didn't have a bunch of characters and actors who'd each starred in their own standalone features.

A lot of things were set in motion seedy

with this film. If it's terrible then Snyder still owns it. If it's good then Whedon will get all the credit for rescuing it. He has no pressure.

Sorry for last post - auto correct plus accidentally pressed send on my phone.

But also what great luck for WB to be able to hand this off to someone (Whedon) who has a proven track record with Avengers

My 15 yr old daughter committed suicide this past September. I haven't posted about it until now. No words to describe it...

Holy crap - my deepest sympathies. Hope you can find some peace somehow.

For me, grief counseling and support groups have been helpful. But nothing changes what happened, I just try to understand and accept it.

I have been though a family members suicide so I can understand some of what you are going through although no
one can truly understand it.
All I can say to you is Time with time you will heal.
You may never get over it but you will learn to deal with it.
Just take it day by day and lean on your faith for strength. As long as we carry those we love in our hearts we never lose them. Take care.

Thank you for the encouragement
