In Justice League (2017) Cyborg says "Booyah", his catchphrase from the animated series, 'Teen Titans'...

no one IRL can fly or shoot lasers either, but superheros do and you're playing one so do your job

>With reshoots underway, Fisher says Whedon raised the issue again: “Geoff tells me Cyborg has a catchphrase,” he told him. Fisher says he expressed his objections and it seemed the matter was dropped — until Berg, the co-chairman of DC Films and a producer on the project, took him to dinner.

>“This is one of the most expensive movies Warners has ever made,” Berg said, according to Fisher. “What if the CEO of AT&T has a son or daughter, and that son or daughter wants Cyborg to say ‘booyah’ in the movie and we don’t have a take of that? I could lose my job.” Fisher responded that he knew if he filmed the line, it would end up in the movie. And he expressed skepticism that the film’s fate rested on Cyborg saying “booyah.”

>But he shot the take. As he arrived on set, he says, Whedon stretched out his arms and said a line from Hamlet in a mocking tone: “Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you.” Fisher replied, “Joss — don’t. I’m not in the mood.” As he left the set after saying just that one phrase for the cameras, he says, Whedon called out, “Nice work, Ray.”
kek

>It's just a fucking word, nigger
Woah, Whedon was pissed

I mean why did he take on the role then? Was he expecting some serious award-winning acting from playing Cyborg in a shlocky superhero movie?

I mean if you take yourself seriously like that why not get a serious role then?

Wtf i love whedon now?

Joss Whedon?
more like Chad Whedon

Whedon's such a cunt, that's why he got cancelled on hearsay. No one who's ever worked with him defends his character. Both SMG and David Boreanaz want to leave his part of their careers behind them.

Bababooye

Did Teen Titans Go parody this? Like did cyborg in the cartoon object to saying it and then reluctantly go back to it when they threaten to kick him out?

Does any of the pther characters have a catchphrase, I know they had superman say something like "I stand for truth and justice", and aquaman did surferbro lingo as well

I know a bunch of Military dudes who say it anytime they blow shit up.

J-j-j-jive talkin
you're telling me lies

I hope this jiggaboo never gets work again. The very definition of uppity.

>After Fisher’s reps were told that Whedon planned to make major revisions to the film, he flew from New Jersey to meet with the filmmaker in L.A. When the two met at a bar, Fisher says, Whedon “was tiptoeing around the fact that everything was changing.” As he left the meeting, Fisher was handed the revised script, which he read twice on the plane back. Gone was Cyborg’s traumatic backstory — his relationship with his mother, whose loving scenes with her son were eliminated, as was the accident that killed her and led to his transformation (the material was later restored in the Snyder Cut version of the film that streamed on HBO Max).

>Whedon sent out an email asking for questions, comments or “fulsome praise,” but Fisher says it became clear: “All he was looking for was the fulsome praise.” Trying to strike a jocular tone, Fisher responded that he mourned the loss of the Cyborg material but was moving on. He said he had notes to avoid issues in terms of representation of the character. But in a call with Whedon, Fisher says he had barely started to talk when the filmmaker cut him off. “It feels like I’m taking notes right now, and I don’t like taking notes from anybody — not even Robert Downey Jr.,” he said. Other sources on the project say Whedon was similarly dismissive of Gadot and Momoa when they questioned new lines.
Who was in the wrong here?

god both actors and directors are such cunts...

The actors. It's their job to say the lines. If they wanted to write them, then become writers.

sup Ray, go check your microwave
