DC shits on another character.


It is amazing how little respect or knowledge DC has about it's own characters.DC has butchered every single one of their characters.I won't get into how they've ruined all of their characters but one thing that stood out to me in the new trailer was Cyborg.The whole deal with Cyborg is whether he's still a human or is he a machine now that 90% of his body is replaced with robotic parts.By giving him a monotone robotic personality, you've robbed him of the only thing that made him human.Also his father, a genius scientist made his suit combining both earth's and Apokalips' technology while in BvS he just takes the motherbox close to his son and voila it makes a suit.The fact that DC is doing a story like Flashpoint as an origin to Flash is an insult to anyone who's ever read a comic book.But what else can you expect from a studio who tried to do The Dark Knight Returns as an introduction to The Dark Knight.

I think his monotone was just them giving us a glimpse of his internal struggle while also making it known that this won't be the goofy Cyborg from the animated shows.

This is its own universe so things can and will be different. The motherbox reconstructing Vic's body(not "makes a suit") is a perfect deviation from the origin cause now he is more like the current, much more powerful Cyborg in the comics.

FYI - Man of Steel and Wonder Woman have been the only movies planned to be origins so far with BvS introducing an established Batman, SS introduced the villains, and JL introducing Aquaman, Cyborg, and Flash. Their respective solo movies are intended to continue their stories established in JL which is why they come out AFTER their introductions in JL.
