Neo Rasa posted:Dare I as who The Ray is? A very bit player in Uncle Sam's Freedom Fighters. They all got the gently caress killed a few issues prior. Recently, (a good decade after this comic got published) people got very angry when they announced he's getting his own tv show and that he's gay now. Nobody ever had any passion for that character one way or the other before that news.

It's important also to remember the context of this scene. Prior to this, we see him learn to fly, he's finally learned where he came from, and is wearing the Superman suit. His first steps as a man. We then go back and see him fight with his father, and lose him in a tornado. His last moment of adolescence. Then there's also that the entire tornado itself is just the metaphor for the fight we see. I know it's been chided by some that it's silly to have had Cavill play a teenager, and sure. However it was important to see him tell Costner "You're not my REAL father!" especially after a scene of him meeting Crowe. The pain, the tearing of those words, is made manifest in the tornado. Clark can't save his dad because he can't unsay those words. Also I really want to mention how much I love the editing and flow of Man of Steel, especially when we get to Earth. You start out with Kal-El's ship about to hit, which then cuts to a ship hitting a wave. After saving the refinery crew Clark falls into the ocean and dreams about his mother "Focus on my voice, pretend it's an island out in the ocean" and wakes up to the whale and its child. After making his way to land and stealing some clothes he watches a school bus drive off which becomes the bus from his childhood. It's just a tight and beautiful little sequence of events that tells you everything you need to know about this Superman. Also the school bus' stop sign being deployed before it flies off the bridge is a good gag. (as is dicksplash being the catalyst  )

I think the tornado scene might have worked better if they either : 1) Cut away a bit sooner. 2) Made it more dream-like, like the bat tornado or Kent talking to his dad on the mountain. The scene didn't make me laugh but it sure made me stare in disbelief. I had similar issues with Kent's real mother and the wall of fire in the beginning. It just looks really fake and off-putting.

Renoistic posted:2) Made it more dream-like, like the bat tornado or Kent talking to his dad on the mountain. Look very carefully at the image here:  Johnathan Kent would be lifted up if this were more rooted in the "real" instead of imaginary or symbolic. The thing you're asking for is there, but you need to look and see it. Pa Kent disappears and is swallowed by the tornado, but as has been said constantly, because this dream is from Clark Kent's perspective it requires a more deft attentiveness to the imagery. You won't always get something as overt/seemingly explicit as a "Bat Tornado" or "Exposition" but this is still very overtly magical/dreamlike in quality. You get thrown or sucked into tornadoes, you don't just vanish. And that's right there for the eye to see. Corrosion fucked around with this message at 09:05 on Dec 6, 2017 |

Yaws posted:Oh yeah. I did a complete 180 on BvS. The UC felt far more cohesive and I loved all the extra Clark stuff. I agree on the Clark stuff, I liked that we got to spend more time with Clark, as it elaborates on his problem with Batman. I also appreciated the extra scenes regarding the africa conspiracy, as it clarified a few details for me. Some of the extra scenes did feel superfluous though, namely all the parts relating to Wally and his exploding chair.

It's really weird because I bought a couple of New Mutants issues in the mid-80s completely on a lark (based on their awesome covers) and totally by coincidence it's the Demon Bear arc, which a) has amazing Bill Sienkiewicz art b) is the arc they're using for the movie wild

LEGO Batman doesn’t even deserve acknowledgment. Sure, the first 10 or so minutes are solid but it sinks really fast after that. Critics, once again, are loving stupid.
