Putting scare quotes around the word diffusion doesn't change its meaning. All of these are soft as hell, which wouldn't a problem if it was a feature, but if it is then it's one shared between all MCU movies. Light seems to be used for the sole purpose of making sure the audience can see the characters. Asgard is overcast, the prison world (?) is overcast, the Earth shot from the first trailer is overcast, every interior is somehow overcast. A pleasant light basks every character, pushing away any harsh shadows - and, really, the whole color black - whether we're looking at a corpse-riddled battlefield or a couple of guys chatting in a cockpit. Karl Urban about to do some violence is completely undermined by it and his armor and weapons look like plastic due to the vast soft glow reflecting back. Here he is about to do some violence in another film:  No grimace or vein popping necessary, you know poo poo's about to go down simply by looking at the completely overexposed, white-hot gun. And look at this:  The use of black to frame him, to make the trident pop, the harsh light that his hair and suit reflects. Now back to Thor:

My 9 year old son made a face that said "holy gently caress" during the entire Thor trailer. I may have actually said holy gently caress. Holy gently caress.

Why are they all shot from the front and the waist-up or full body? Why can you barely tell the difference between scenes outdoors and indoors? Yeah, that's what I'm noticing. I really don't like that. teagone posted:BSS thinks adapting Flashpoint and including Thomas Wayne as Batdad and Lauren Cohan as Jokermom is a bad idea. It's something I've wanted since August of last year, and I couldn't be more hyped. That specific casting leading to Lauren Cohan as the Joker is my dream come true.

It feels like the only X-Men movie to properly capture what it must feel like to be a minority; you never know when the entire world, or at least what seems like it, is going to suddenly decide to kill you, and the people who supposedly protect everyone else are the ones who pose the biggest threat to you.

Justice League has the look of a great pinball game with how frenetic and wild it looks, I just wish I gave a gently caress about the story or characters or Steppenwolf. Cyborg's effects are also loving bad.

I know that both movies are a ways out but the effects for Cyborg, that scene where Aquaman rides a parademon through a building, and Black Panther jumping between cars look very bad. The CG is definitely unfinished, but drat those were not great choices for the trailers.

Cyborg just seems like bad design, compared to most of his previous incarnations being very distinctive and solid, whether the shiny chrome of the comics or the blue-and-white circuit look of the cartoon. Maybe he'll get the Mother Box bits ripped out of him in time for a convenient redesign.

Ronan was a demon space-priest so there's a precedent for coming from space and being largely uninteresting, like Thanos and his work pants. Darkseid might be the outlier just because he's so egregious, his name is DARKSEID and comes from APOKALIPS and at least had that rad demonic painting in BvS be a subtle primer for what he is.

Yeah, this is about what I'd expect. The best stuff in Winter Soldier and Civil War was the smaller-scale Bourne Legacy action. The larger the scale they're working with the less impact it seems to have.

I'd like to see DC take another shot at Green Lantern and actually do it right. It's a rather hard concept to gently caress up if you just treat it like an intergalactic epic and an outer space fantasy. Sort like how Guardians did it and how the new Thor movie looks to be being constructed. Just loving Star Wars it up and introduce all these wild toy selling alien Lanterns and crazy planets. JL doesn't feel right without GL and he's always been one of my favorite DC characters. How they managed to actually make the concept boring of all things in the film they made is beyond me. I wasn't sure it'd be any good but never dreamed it would be loving dull.

drat, fair enough. I can argue why I respect a lot of the compositional elements going on in Waititi's vision, and appreciate them a lot more than previous MCU flicks... But ya just can't argue with movie-fight.

The JL trailer certainly seemed to imply the GL will be playing some part, either in this movie or further on, with Steppenwolf saying that Earth being outside of GL jurisdiction is partly how he can invade.

Supposedly there's going to be flashbacks to Darkseid's first assault on Earth in the distant past, which will feature Abin Suhr as part of the forces fighting Darkseid's army.

It isn't, for sure, but I tried to keep the pictures relevant to the thread and, if any type of movie warrants such a technique, it's comic book movies, don't you think? Whichever the case, I think there's a problem when most of your trailer looks about the same (i.e. bland), even as locations and circumstances change drastically.

That sounds immensely disappointing. I was hoping for a normal sized Thanos extending his hand into the heavens and we see in grand scale as a moon begins to move, debris unsettling, as a planets tidal waves shift and poles misalign and poo poo, and an entire planets civilization is destroyed in close up violence and horror just because Thanos with the Gems had a whim to throw a moon casually at Ant Man. Basically one scene where entirety of 2012 is played out as a side note to monstrous purple dudes ego. And then hurls it into another civilized planet where we see something like the end of Knowing play out Gatts fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jul 23, 2017 |

Yeah, seems very possible they went heavy on the weird visuals in the trailer, and a much higher percentage of the movie is going to be people lit about the same whether they're in a cramped spaceship or standing on a rainbow bridge, and clearly always in a thirty-foot cube.
