Most of those are mediocre at best. I liked TDK and Dredd and Guardians was good silly fun. The rest of it is really just a sad gallery of movies

gently caress buildup we want that sweet comic money loving NOW, let's throw everything we can in there!

Seriously though, this would have been like Marvel if Thanos was thrown into Winter Soldier and was turned into a clone of Captain America, and then killed 10 minutes later. "What would be really loving stupid of them," you say, but there you go: DC is that dumb.

PS: Best part of the movie was Batman saying 'gently caress no killing,' and turning into Iron Punisher instead.

yeah, they needed to wait and do a slow burn. or at least a patient burn, not something insane.

marvel punisher still better than batman punisher though

I watched this movie in 3D on Friday night, 6:30PM showing. For less than :10bux:
The regular 6:00 showing had sold-out, but we found 3 seats together right at 6:25, and the theatre never filled more than halfway.

I thought the movie was pretty entertaining, but I wasn't terribly fond of the character's seeming lack of depth...even for a comic book movie.

Ms. Godot as Wonder Woman was visually stunning, but her character was less than engaging.

Fight scenes were a bit meh.

Lex was the only remotely interesting character, but the actor gave Luther a bizarre, spastic affectation that was distracting.

I'm a 'casual' comics fan, and I don't see most comic movies. I enjoyed all the other recent Batman films, but this one was kinda forgettable.

TLDR - 5/10 meh

Watchmen is a hard sell because it's proximity to the book is going to make it look like hot garbage even if it were almost kinda decent. And since it was refined mediocrity it ended up being terrible. (I kinda liked how they took away Rorschach's big badass scene but that's literally all I liked about that movie).

If Batman vs Superman ended with One Punch Man pulling up in a cab saying "Sorry I'm late, it was special sale day..." and one punching both of them it would have been a much more satisfying movie.

who the gently caress greenlit that, what kind of demented fucker makes a movie like that.

It's like someone played Alice and decided it needed a huge infusion of disturbing sexuality.

Who doea Zack Snyder know that let's him keep making movies

My girlfriend at the time wanted to see that movie and while this wasn't the reason why we broke up, it was a very good indication something was wrong. I thought the movie was garbage and she was moved to tears because of what a powerful message it sent.

I liked Winter Soldier too since it had no fantastic CGI opponents and lots of old school fight sequences such as the elevator beatdown scene.

i would also like a movie to run with grant morrison's all star superman interpretation of lex luthor where he pushes himself to peak human physically and mentally to be the best he can be and resents superman for trivialising all the things a normal person can achieve without trying and holding humanity back by being a big paternal figure solving our big crises for us. That is a cool and understandable lex, even if he is still a sociopath.

honestly though, i think it was one of those hollywood things where everybody copies everybody else. and for some reason pulp heroes were en vogue. maybe indy jones was the start of it and they even invented one (the rocketeer). i dont think any of them were too successful except for dick tracy though. not counting indy obviously
