Justice League Ray Porter IS Uxas/Darkseid

[Bren]

Everyone saying Zack should’ve cast a higher profile actor better put some respeck on Ray Porter. He’s knocked it completely outta the park.

You should ignore Everyone, he's an ass. The majority of fans wanted an awesome portrayal and that seems like what we are getting

I wasn’t gonna but I broke down and watched the Darkseid trailer.

My spirit might be weak but my body is ready.

really dig the imagery we are getting with darkseid from this.
he looks like an ancient, elemental evil.

exactly like the sense of dread we got from bvs, even tho he was never shown physically in there.

He still pretty much looks like PS3 graphics to me.

 

[Arachnerd]

Those 'PS3 graphics' must be pretty advanced then.

Looking more like PS5 graphics if you ask me....

 

[chintai80]

the comparisons to thanos are inevitable.

that thanos cgi was mostly pretty great, imo.
i am not expecting darkseid's cgi to reach that level.

but in terms of the character design itself, i prefer darkseid.
he's a much more classic villain to me, grander.
like something out of an epic poem from the days of yore.

Is this the proper bar for a huge blockbuster movie that spend 75 million dollars just to finish post-production?

 

[Arachnerd]

Depends on whether or not one makes actual legitimate criticism that isn't just relegated to the tired and superficial "it looks like insert-console-here graphics" one.

Not to mention that gif is super brightened and contrasted in comparison to the actual shot in the Steppenwolf trailer.

i'm waiting to see the actual movie on my hd tv to reserve final judgement.
but based off the trailers on my phone, it looks good so far.

My superficial comments are not based just on that one gif. He overall looks slightly improved than the first trailer (as expected), but to me the CGI still feels pretty bad most of the times. Steppenwolf's too in various shots. Especially for a movie of this budget.

Now, I'd definitely pass judgement on more substantial aspects of the movie, such as plot, themes and characterisation, but, for one, I haven't seen the film, and furthermore, those characteristics are certainly not Snyder's strongest suits. Visuals are.

 

[The Guard]

Anyone else think this feels like a nod to The Thinker?

Spoiler: from new teaser

Knowing Snyder, it would probably be intentional.

If you want to keep it simple, you can just say Thanos is inevitable, but DARKSEID IS.

OOT, but it still irks me we didn't get that King Conan movie.

Darkseid CGI looks phenomenal.

You clearly missed the overwhelming amount of sarcasm that was dripping from my post.

PS3 game ported onto a PS4 graphics.

I've spoken.

Same. I'm still hoping Arnold and friends work something out.

Waiting for a trailer before I cast judgment on the upcoming Netflix Conan series. If they go back to the books that'll be something cool.
