oldpainless posted:Eisenberg was god-awful as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons should have been used a hell of a lot more. Put him in every scene somehow including the end fight where he dispenses wisdom to all 3 of them. Irons would have had some great onscreen chemistry with Cavill, it's a drat shame that never happened. Superman was way too much of an indigo child who was told he was special and was going to do great things by every parental figure in his life and confronting him with a parental figure who would call him out on his mopey bullshit would have been great.

Aren't there actual adult performers that go by the stage names Harley Quinn and Diana Prince? It seems like even if they aren't good, why not cast them?

I was so ready to hate this movie. I was having so much fun reading all the backlash, how boring it is, ect. I don't like Snyder so that made it even better. But I saw it a few hours ago and I liked it and was entertained the whole way through. I absolutely hated Eisnberg's Lex, so many forced quirky mannerisms, and some disjointed scenes due to it trying to set up a universe in one movie, but definitely surprised me. But seriously, what's with every villain having a myriad of strange behavioral ticks. Like every actor thinks he's going to be the next Ledger if he acts spergy enough.

8-Bit Scholar posted:Tony Stark is still better than Reed Richards, who is useless. Fantastic Four would work if they didn't keep trying to make them grounded and gritty. The FF are balls to the wall science insanity and any movie with them should have a dozen different threads going on at once. Teleportation, Annihilus attacking from the negative zone, Galactus doing a flyby, the Watcher inviting them to tea on his moon base, Johnny Storm casually playing pranks on Ben using a time machine stolen from Doom (who NEVER appears in the movie), a dozen alien species walking around in the background, their two kids getting into trouble, the house robots gaining sentience and going on strike, Reed locking himself in the lab for half the movie and Sue yelling at him because he promised to take them for ice cream and the Mole Man attacks them with a 100 metre high monster and ten thousand Moloids. And throw in the Eternals and Deviants and Skrulls disguised as furniture and anything else the ever appeared in the comics. Also, at least three different dimensions, including the Microverse (and insulting Hank Pym), must be passed through with absolutely no fanfare whatsoever. No overarching plot, just a 'day in the life' where life is insane. Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 10:39 on Mar 30, 2016 |

Gorilla Salad posted:Fantastic Four would work if they didn't keep trying to make them grounded and gritty.

Overstuffing and cramming too much fan service into comic book movies almost certainly guarantees they come out like cold vomit in the end. Spiderman 1+2 Vs Spiderman 3 for example. Fan wank is the deathknell of comic movies and they only work when its moved surreptitiously into the background so "fans" can point to it and go "hey...its some bullshit from the comics" but your significant other can just enjoy the men punching each other without you having to pause the DVD and give a brief explanation of why silver surfer is the herald of glactus and what that means for our intrepid hero's. EDIT: Does the superman die at the end of this movie? Im gonna watch it eventually but i dont really give a poo poo because all of DCs stuff so far has been terrible.

Well he gets stabbed through the heart by a 10' tall monster and they put him in a coffin and hold a funeral and lower the coffin into a grave but nah he's not actually dead. That's the other reason that Doomsday is a lovely boring character - even though he 'kills' Superman not even the dumbest poo poo-for-brains fanboy ever thought for a second that he'd stay dead and it was always obvious as poo poo that he'd come back so the whole 'Death of Superman' story was just a meaningless publicity exercise.

8-Bit Scholar posted:It's possible they got better at this, but I slowly found myself losing interest around Thor 2 and Cap 2 and all the 2's. Iron Man 2 was a big disappointment overall, and the fact that they haven't even attempted to tell the Demon in a Bottle or whatever storyline with him sort of irritates me, because I feel like they don't want to make Tony Stark do any sort of character growth; he certainly dodged it in Iron Man 2.

IMO the best FF movies we've gotten so far are actually the MiB series. If they were set in the 60's, with Austin Powers visual styling, tons of purple and green everywhere, even better.

Maybe you could have several versions of the same film, one where everybody had comically porportioned boobs and buts and crotch bulges, one where everyone had normal sized dadbods and one where no one was fat shamed and everyone was 250 pounds. Its 2016 ffs, with CGI we should be able to do these things I would pay good money to see fat superheroes battle it out.

They would have just taken the easy route of CGI'ing Gadot's face onto some muscular stunt woman's body and that technology isn't quite up to speed yet.
