I'm really confused how CD has escaped a mod purge and replacement by some FYAD posters for so long.

Young Freud posted:I know Devin Faraci gets a lot of poo poo here, but he posted an article on how the original comic and the 1978 Christopher Reeve Superman was born to reflect the anxieties of their time and assuage them with a superhero that could overcome them and how Snyder kinda killed Superman for this generation with his renditions of a Supes that is overwhelmed by the zeitgeist. Anyway, he included this quote that Synder said during the press tour: Isn't that the premise of the not-grim and probably not-incoherent Pixar superhero movie? edit: The Incredibles, I'm a dope PaletteSwappedNinja fucked around with this message at 08:28 on Apr 4, 2016 |

"heroes regulated" was also a plot point of a major marvel arc, and The Watchmen, which he also cribbed the character of dr manhattan from and reskinned as super man. i would be well pleased if somehow snyder gets shitcanned from justice league and they get george miller on it snyder should be freed up to make his passion piece about a rich rapist who blows up low income housing

Deadpool is practically an indie film when it comes to comic book movie budgets, and it's a runaway success while BvS may end up losing money when you consider its dropoff in foreign and domestic box office and the expense of the ENORMOUS ad campaign. This is such a wonderful shitshow and I hope Snyder gets his $8,000,000 to direct The Fountainhead, it makes $6,000 at the box office, and then we never hear from him again.

The invisible hand of the free market made the first one bomb, then the second was made cheaper and it bombed. Then the third one turned to kickstarter because an objectivist message film is not financially viable and it can only survive on charity, and it was still a flop even though it was made for pennies. And now, once again, with BvS a libertarian is forced to realize that libertarian beliefs are so disgusting that they can't turn a profit even if you put a coat of Batman paint on it. Suck on that throbbing free market dick, Snyder.

8-Bit Scholar posted:I haven't seen Sucker Punch when I heard it was all dream sequences I was like "nah" Sucker punch was a movie about female empowerment by a man that loves women. The heroine and other ladies are screwed over by fate and forcibly imprisoned in an insane asylum run by leering rapists. The fight scenes in the trailer, where the women do kick-rear end feminism stuff with cleavage and upskirts everywhere, are only symbolic dream sequences, done during the short time bought from their captors by the heroine doing some erotic dance that literally hypnotizes the men into unconsciousness. At the end, the heroine is lobotomized, just as a bunch of male cops come in and rescue all the women. -- “Who Honors those we love for the very life we live? Who sends monsters to kill us...and at the same time sings that we'll never die? Who teaches us what's real...and how to laugh at lies? Who decides why we live and what we'll die to defend? Who chains us...and who holds the key that can set us free? It's you. You have all the weapons you need. Now fight!” ― Zack Snyder thoughts and prayers fucked around with this message at 21:36 on Apr 5, 2016 |

Sucker Punch was also a literal walk through the hero's journey checklist, which is telegraphed and lampshaded the entire way. The downer ending is, I assume, supposed to be the titular Sucker Punch. E: as is the misogyny on display in what is ostensibly a female empowerment film.

I was going to say "How can Snyder be an Objectivist when Superman continually brings up his class-consciousness in this movie?" and then I remembered that, in BvS, Superman is a dumb idiot who is stupid and whose heroics are filmed like horror scenes.

A building is on fire and Superman extremely slowly saves one person and leaves the building burning (no super breath or anything super-heroic). People gather around to praise him. A moment later he stands by as hundreds of people are blown up because he didn't want to save the people who were being mean to him by questioning his motives. As the ashes of the dead swirl around him he looks annoyed by them. People gather outside to praise him. Lex kidnaps his mom and says kill Batman or my goons will kill her. Superman agrees because he can't use his super vision, his super hearing, his super strength, or his super speed to just zip over to the warehouse and save mom and come back to Lex in under a second. To add insult to injury, one scene later Batman IS capable of finding her, is capable of fighting the goons, and IS capable of saving her, which Superman couldn't do. So, if you just take what's in this movie, people love and worship a stupid hero that either can never remember he has superpowers, or he refuses to use them because he is an incredibly stupid prick that just enjoys human suffering and death.

Zzulu posted:Watchmen was okay I thought. The characters were just so stiff Yeah, Watchmen was the moment I realized he had no idea how people actually behave. The biggest example is the line "well what do you expect, the comedian is dead" Its supposed to be this line that suggested just total emotional and moral exhaustion. This summary of the burdens the characters are feeling. In the movie its delivered as a half-hearted one-liner with all of its emotional weight removed from the performance.

I'm kinda interested in if the season 2 of daredevil is affecting how bad this movie is doing. I watched the first three episodes before I watched BvS and it's almost funny how much more I like the people on an internet tv show than a major motion picture in the same genre. A tv show on the internet was able to set up a conflict between two comic book characters and resolve it, with a chance of sequels, better than a movie. I'm working my way through the season now and even this investigation poo poo flows better with the superheroics compared to bvs.
