Waffleman_ posted:Gee, I wonder who the movie is going to side with. They're leaning that hard so they can point out how Batman was too extremist somehow when Doomsday or whatever kills Superman and act like they're super-clever. Or they really are that butt-loving stupid and it's going to be 2.5 hours of Bat-fellatio.

Yes the man who found he had godlike powers and decided to use them to try and act as a beacon for an inferior species while fighting the will of wannabe emperors and god-figures versus an obscenely wealthy guy who uses his unparalleled competency and fortune to beat up poor people and the mentally ill from his parent's basement. People who focus solely on what each hero can do and how they got their "powers" are the dumbest motherfuckers alive I tell you what, and yes I do include highly skilled and talented artists who have made widely acclaimed official projects with said characters in that assessment.

FYI though, Superman wasn't born with his powers you idiot. He gets it from our planets sun and the fact that kypton's gravity is much stronger than earth's. Jesus Christ.

Weird how the Kansas farm-boy and the Aryan-looking Soldier who punches Hitler have ended up being fairly left-wing heroes while the NYC and LA-styled playboys are practically right-wing poster children.

Can we just skip Batman and go straight to Goku vs Superman? Also related to the thread, I still can't believe this was a good idea for a DVD art.  Rirse fucked around with this message at 07:07 on Jun 11, 2015 |

Then he basically said he's holding earth hostage and we're not allowed to question him. He's the absolute worst superhero ever. He's like the opposite of trustworthy and likable superheroes like Superman.

If you're worried that B v S is going to be mind the walrus posted:2.5 hours of Bat-fellatio you should watch this video which is 13 minutes of Zach Snyder proclaiming how much he loves Superman, how Superman is the best, how Superman would beat Batman, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOJj2zw2goM A GLISTENING HODOR posted:You're forgetting that in the DC movie universe he's a bigger dark and brooding emo mope than Batman and his heroism was him trashing a town, murdering a dude, driving an intelligent species to extinction, leveling a city, and letting millions of people die.

I don't need to watch a director I don't particularly like nor think is particularly insightful as a storyteller give a marketing spiel to placate even dumber people than myself. I'll shut up now.

My birthday was last week and my wife got me this poster: in the subway size (43x62). It's going to look awesome in my basement (once I finish it)

Awesome poster, but I'm kinda surprised that the title is in that kinda dull font, instead of that totally killer one that's seen in the film's title sequence. I really wish I could rewatch The Thing again for the first time.

The jagged logo would look incredibly out of place contrasted against the almost cubist background and rather naturalistic subject. The poster's like 90% straight lines so it'd be weird to go against that in the title.

If you know the history of that poster, Drew Struzan drew it (pun intended) totally blind. They didn't tell him a thing (pun intended again) about the movie. He just knew it was in the Artic and had some kind of alien in it. No script, no actors, no photos and he had less than 24 hours to do the entire poster. A real shame he retired. The man was a master.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:People are going to be surprised at how big that movie turns out to be. Let's define "big". I think it struggles to get 120 million domestic and only does 250 million global. That's "big", to me, human being. I don't really feel like that's "big" to planet-eating corporate empire Disney or for a Marvel summer superhero movie. Also I guess it should be said that these Ant Man posters are in really lovely taste.
