at least the dc fanboy defense has shifted from "it's actually good shut up shut up shut up" to "well it wasn't that bad!"

Tiberius Christ posted:wait jimmy olsen was the guy that got shot in the face at the beginning? what the gently caress, its like DC has no respect for its own characters. will they have lana lang get raped in the next one? also its pretty funny Jenny isnt an olsen anymore, i remember the marketing droning on about her when MOS was in development. jfc theyre comic book characters. literal corporate mascots. eey whats next RAPE?? THATS BASICALLY THE SAME THING AS DISRESPECTING MY COMICS get the gently caress over it you giant baby lmao

bring back old gbs posted:my biggest gripe with the saving scenes was the rooftop people. Does he just pull them up one by one? Or does he do what you do with little cousins, where you stick your arms out and they all try to latch on while you run around the yard? if he had like a giant net or something i could find it believable, idk. that part really bugged me. why not like push a huge boat around??? "borrow" Lex's yacht, and he "borrows" his mom in return basically sets up the entire movie. Maybe he drank all the water? Edit: oh oh, I know, he used his super breath to freeze the water and they just walked to safety

I think he was watching the horses drown, foreshadowing the later dream sequence with his dead father.

achillesforever6 posted:The voice actress of Raven also voices some of the ponies from that show (that and a poo poo ton of other characters because she has a monopoly in the voice actress industry) Them using the main voice actors for a ton of the smaller parts is one of the only things that ticks me off about that show. It was really bad on one of the Christmas specials when Cyborg was getting yelled at by an elf foreman or some poo poo, and the dude who voices Cyborg was clearly reading both parts at once. But then they do poo poo like have an April Fool's episode where one of the pranks was them telling Robin his parents were alive and waiting in his room so he ran into a spider web of tape.

quote:Honestly one of the main things running through my mind during the film was, " wow, this Superman is a really drat introverted". That's probably a weird thing to think about I guess. I actually remember seeing a rebloged mbti 'typing' of the MoS Superman that pegged him as an INFJ and I kind of get it now.

Remember when Deadpool came out and your entire social media feed was cute and fun and joyously dumb Deadpool poo poo? Has anyone seen ANYTHING positive and fun about this movie? Not thinkpieces that read like it was written by the living embodiment of the word "Actually,". Have any of you seen someone personally seeming like they had a good time and want to share their joy?

Oh my god, you're not kidding: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc1QHOvS_G0 Also holy crap do fans really not like this show replacing the older DC cartoons; at least half the comments on youtube clips are of folks being really butthurt about it. I think I might enjoy this show based purely on that principle.

I saw this movie and I regret it, it was bad on many levels. One dumb thing I missed while watching it: the whole "I thought she was with you" line- Batman/Bruce Wayne had already met WW and talked to her and knew she was like 100 years old by the time that fight happened. Why does Ma Kent tell Clark that "he doesn't owe people anything"? Like aside from being philosophically dumb and inconsistent with most people's understanding of Superman, she's just plain wrong. He owes people a lot- he was partly responsible for all the death and destruction that happened in MoS. What was the point of having Lois Lane follow up on that bullet fragment? We as an audience already knew Lex was evil and had some master plan, and Lex basically explains that plan unprompted to Superman when he actually shows up. Why/what authority does Holly Hunter have to keep Lex from his various plans w/ Zod's body and the spaceship? It seems pretty unlikely some chump junior senator would have the power to keep him from getting access under the premise that he was building a Superman-killing weapon. Seems like Lex could have just gone to the CIA or the Pentagon with the "kill Superman weapon" idea and they'd have given him free reign? In fact- what's the point of the Superman commission? What legislative or governmental goals are the hoping to achieve from it? When Wonder Woman is trying to "get back" the picture, does she not understand that it's a file on a computer and there are probably lots of copies? Is she an anachronism or not? Why does Superman need Batman's help to save his mom? None of the above are even in the top 5 of why this movie was terrible- just things I don't think I saw mentioned already.

It's still way too early to tell but the second weekend figures should give some indication whether BvS has legs or whether it was totally front loaded. But I can note that BvS's numbers for Friday and Saturday were huge but since then it's done about the same or worse numbers than Deadpool. BvS got $33 million domestic on its first Sunday but Deadpool got $42 million its first Sunday. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=deadpool2016.htm http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=superman2015.htm Word on the street is that after the huge production budget and the ad/promo campaign and everything BvS will have to make at least $800 million worldwide just to break even.

Apparently it wasn't a dream, someone else pointed out that when The Flash comes back in time to pass on that message the time wormhole is kicking up a whole bunch of Bruce's paperwork and when he 'wakes up' the paperwork is still all messed up. It was still a pretty clumsy, pointless scene regardless. Edit: I don't even like this film and I've never even been a huge fan of the characters, I don't know why I've put so much goddamned thought into it

The very first I can remember doing that was An American Werewolf in London which is one of the top five horror films of all time. If you haven't seen it, go - and for shits and giggles watch Ginger Snaps right afterwards.

If everyone stays home or goes to see something else we may be blessed with a Justice League film with no Zack Snyder and a Superman that doesn't murder people for shits and giggles. And the king of weekend dropoffs for comic movies will probably always be Ang Lee's Hulk, at -69.7% Fant4stic was -68.2% X3 was -66.9%
