DC Cinematic Universe ( The James Gunn era)

[JD]

Those murals are based on the 1930s Winold Reiss industrial murals from the atrium of the Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal, which was the inspiration for the original Hall of Justice in Super Friends (back when it was still a train station rather than a museum that moonlights as a train station) and which the movie used as a filming location. I assume they digitally altered the Reiss murals rather than tamper with museum pieces.

It's wild to see that a scene from this movie was filmed in a place I've actually been in numerous times in my life. I visited the Terminal a number of times in my youth, including once when my father hosted a radio broadcast from there, and in 1996 I worked there as a museum guide for the Star Trek Federation Science Exhibit, often taking my lunch break in the very atrium where they filmed. I haven't been there in quite a while, but I can see it from the overlook park near my apartment.

I don't know the scenes in The Hall of Justice were actually filmed inside Union Terminal, I had assumed they just did those one or two shots outside and then all the interiors were a set back at the studio. Did they change it much from how it usually looks?
So I wonder if stuff with Peacemaker jumping universes is him going from the DCEU to the DCU or the DCU to another different universe?

Peacemaker doesn't seem to be a joke in the other universe, do it's not the DCU or the DCEU.

I haven't seen the movie yet, but I've seen some frames that appear to be from a scene shot inside the atrium, and I've seen a behind-the-scenes video of Fillion and the Hawkgirl actress clowning around in the atrium. It looked like the atrium I remember, so they probably just altered the murals and the signage.

Long-time Cincinnati resident. The mural and the little bit of furniture were the only change I noticed.

Are you waiting for an engraved invitation?

I haven't seen a movie theatrically since COVID happened. I've been tempted to go see Superman, but I figure I should at least wait until the crowds have died down and I can hopefully take in a fairly empty matinee showing.

 

[The Realist]

Fair enough. The first movie I saw theatrically post-COVID was The Flash, because I just had to have my Supergirl. I usually go to weekday matinees, finding that even on opening day, those tend to be sparsely attended, at least at my theater.

My movie buddy were so lucky a few months ago. We went to see Thunderbolts a few weeks after its premiere, on a Tuesday evening. The whole theater to ourselves. Service cinema, meaning we could order drinks and snacks during the movie and they're brought to us. We had our own personal waiter basically and could chat about the movie during the movie. Brilliant.
