GonSmithe posted:I mentioned this in the other thread but it looks like actual garbage. The shot of Batman on the Batmobile is loving horrid. And I don't get it. The early trailers made it look great. Each successive trailer or scene shown makes it look worse and worse. The red filter, that awful music, and now these poo poo-tastic clips. It's frustrating watching this movie get worse and worse.

I do agree that a lot of Elfman's work now does sound very samey, but that really doesn't bug me all that much. They lack really distinct tracks, but typically I feel that the texture of the score compliments the film well. Here though it does not match with the aesthetic of the movie at all. It's far too whimsical with its frantic strings, and brief moments of a universal monster movie inspired score. Bits like that and the '89 Batman theme just seem so out of place. I feel that the problem is less about Elfman's abilities as a composer, and more to do with how he was directed and maybe just being a bad fit for this movie to begin with.

"Hey, Ben looks a lot different in this first shot. Should we reshoot both shots that are from this angle so it's not noticeable?" "No, who has the time for that kind of precision in a $300 million dollar movie!"

Every clip in the trailer looks like they just filmed everyone in a dark room with some orange light and a fire then said they would just CGI in the whole movie later.

I mean all the reshoots were to add the funnies to the movie, why not just have him turn around wearing Groucho glasses or a horse head or something? Show that, hey, Superman is a fun loving guy who just likes to toss out quips during a big moment, and when he does he makes it extra silly by using props!

Honestly, the way this is going I expect Whedon's Superman to be the worst of the Donner with the worst of the Snyder. Just an aw-shucks guy who suddenly gets insanely angry and explosively red-eye murders inhumans by the dozen in a way that produces no consequences beyond "Superman will protect us" catharsis.

Well, Whedon also has a major issue with mistaking earnestness with sentimentality. It's one of the reasons why Captain America acts like such a cold dildo in the Avengers movies, far removed from his more nuanced and sympathetic portrayal in his own franchise. I don't see any reason why he won't make the same mistake in this sandbox. I'm expecting a Superman that awkwardly recycles a lot of the Christopher Reeves persona without any of the natural charisma or warmth.

Wasn't there some classic actor who refused to shave his mustache, so they just covered it up with makeup in anything he did that didn't call for it?Fart City posted:Well, Whedon also has a major issue with mistaking earnestness with sentimentality.

This is definitely something that makes way more sense now that we know his entire life was an ironic performance.

Gatts posted:I preferred CG Steppenwolf. I disagree with whoever's decision to make him flesh and blood actor. He's still cgi, unless you think Ciaran Hinds is 12 feet tall with naturally glowing eyes. They were always using only his voice, and he was never going to look exactly like he does in the communion scene - that's kryptonian liquid metal imaging stuff, they don't use analog/digital video technology.

I have a theatrical vs ultimate BvS question since I never saw the theatrical. I know the "communion" scene was added in for the ultimate but was the "Ding Ding" scene also added? Or was it presented in the theatrical without context?

I mean he does make generic references to things "out there, lurking in the dark. Ding dong, the God is dead" as well, don't forget. That stuck around in the theatrical. So it goes from being a direct reference to a scene a few minutes earlier to being a vague reference to whatever is coming down the pipe. Although, really, the communion should have never really been cut from the movie, especially since it ended up on the end of a viral marketing thing that wrapped up on opening weekend. But, hey, Warners wanted an extra show a day and they had to slice it down as much as they could (despite Zack apparently having told WB very much at the planning stages of the movie that he was going to make it as a three hour movie and they totally agreed with that plan).

The communion scene clarifies exactly what's coming, but the theatrical version cuts directly from Lex saying 'ding ding ding ding' to the 'angels and demons' portrait from earlier - except it's upside down, so the demons are coming from above.
