if he knows that branding someone will get them killed in prison but keeps doing it, then he is just being lazy about murdering them himself.

This threat to all human life on earth is invulnerable to everything we can throw at it, and has shown callous disregard for civilian casualties in a fight. If I'm going to stand a chance, I'm going to have to prepare my mind, body, and tools to a level beyond anything humanity has demonstrated to his point. *crossfit montage*

Batman should be super nihilistic due to how close humanity came to being wiped out 18 months earlier and views every living person on the planet as just some living dead on borrowed time. "Blew up some criminals? So what? They had almost 2 more years of life than they probably should have... It doesn't matter..."

I'm really wondering if Suicide Squad will manage to not be a Garbage fire, The newer trailers are fun but the first one released was an overly dour tryhard thing that, if it's the actual tone of the film will suck balls. If the newer trailers are just clever editing to good music... Plus everything about Leto's "method" is loving dumb.

An industrious redditor compiled every one of Superman's lines. There are 43. They are incredibly bland and lacking in personality. Laid out like that, it's pretty crazy.

this movie was okay, i was expecting it to be terrible garbage but i'd put it on par or slighty above most superhero films excluding the couple actually good ones lots better than man of steel at least, i'd put it on par with avengers but they both have different strengths and weaknesses, i.e. avengers is mostly coherent and snappily written but has no attempt at themes or cinematography whatsoever.

BvS just doesn't flow right. I like poo poo like Pi: Faith in Chaos and Jacob's Ladder, but they were edited together well. BvS is just a jumbled mess of sometimes individually quite impressive vignettes.

Why would you do that in 2016? He looks like a regular non-Aquaman dude holding his breath and squinting against the water.

JazzFlight posted:The thing I don't get about the "Bat Brand" is that criminals hate Batman. Why the hell would they be on his side by eliminating the ones he marks? The whole branding thing didn't actually make sense. Yeah that bothered me too. It would make more sense for imprisoned criminals to see a bat brand as a mark of honour, like 'I may be in prison, but I'm hard enough that it took batman to bring me in/ I was brave enough to try to fight batman'. Batman's elaborately outsourced murder service has weird implications if thought about even slightly. Has batman set up the murder system through moles within the prison? Does commissioner gordan know what he is doing and outright condone it or choose to look the other way? Usually the answer to these questions would be not to think about it so much, but this movie is reportedly best enjoyed by thinking about it.

Maybe the brand is less "hey inmates. kill this dude." and more "hey prison guards, if anything happens to this dipshit on your watch, he tripped and fell on that shiv 23 times and you didn't see nothin', wink-wink." That would only make sense if the cops didn't seem terrorized by the Bat just as much as the criminals, as the movie presented it. So I guess that's a bad idea. Feel free to use it, Snyder. I won't charge a consulting fee.

It still doesn't explain why being taken in by Batman would be a death sentence. Unless inmates are dumb enough to think that the brand implies that the prisoner IS batman?

Moon Atari posted:Usually the answer to these questions would be not to think about it so much, but this movie is reportedly best enjoyed by thinking about it. Batman is branding dudes and that gets them killed in prison. Blue Monkey: look harder. That implies that Batman is dealing out death sentences for any crime. Blue Monkey: look harder. And cops are arresting these criminals who were brought to justice without due process, and being executed for crimes they haven't been tried for, and Commissioner Gordon is therefore directly encouraging mob justice while rejecting the US Constitution. Him and his vigilante friends are now above the law. Blue Monkey: look harder. And Superman refuses to stop crime or protect humans. He certainly wouldn't stop God Emperor Gordon or Batman from committing these atrocities against a civilized, lawful nation. Blue Monkey: look harder. The Justice League is a conquering army leaving humanity trapped in a three way gangbang between living gods, criminals, and a horrific police state. The Justice League is literally the exact same thing working towards the exact same goals as Hydra in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Blue Monkey: look harder. Zack Snyder is retarded!

If the brand meant they were a snitch, them getting murdered in prison. Now I'm no famous detective or anything, but maybe guaranteeing your snitches get murdered is just how it goes.

The real answer was, as with everything else that happened in the movie, it was Lex doing it. ~~~ When they made Lex's master plan make no sense, and then didn't explain any of it, was it; A) sloppy writing or; B) was that how they tried to show how smart Lex was and none of the audience could possibly grasp the nuances of his genius. Both are possible, but I think B has a certain contempt for the audience that rings true.

If you're going to do the Sherlock Holmes thing and hide the truth from the audience only to reveal how smart and observant your character is later, you kinda have to do that second part.

ocrumsprug posted:When they made Lex's master plan make no sense, and then didn't explain any of it, was it; Maybe Lex's plan was the same as Loki's in The Avengers: set the protagonists against each other and manufacture a fake war and unleash giant monster/s on the city but ensure that the protagonists are in a position to win (because they joined forces to oppose Lex/Loki) and put him in prison because that's exactly where he needs to be in order to execute the next step in his master plan. It worked for Loki, he's king of Asgard now and has access to the Infinity Gauntlet and at least one of the Infinity Gems.

If not, why'd he bring Wonder Woman into the picture and push the files about Flash and Aquaman onto Batman? Or was he setting up Batman to go murder the other superheroes as well???
