why didn't Snyder just play Batman in a Snyder-directed Batman have Tom Cruise in as main villain Two-Face and he won't seem small

Roadhouse remake starring Zack Snyder. This is the hottest thing I've seen in a lo-o-o-o-o-ong time.

Why would Batman wear a bunch of armor against a guy who could otherwise easily punch a hole in him?? Checkmate, hivemind goonies.

He can easily punch a hole in him with the armour on too, it doesn't actually serve any purpose at all beyond being a callback to a comic it was lifted from without context, and if you haven't seen the comic/cartoon first it makes even less sense.

It's such an odd complaint. The armour gets all hosed up during the fight and without it Bruce would have been even more hosed up and may not have been able to get the upper hand. Like, we literally see the armour protecting him.

There's no reason at all given for Batman wearing that suit, either spoken or demonstrated. The movie was a complete mess, and even the fight that should have been the best part of the movie was let down from start to finish by poor decisions. There's not the remotest doubt that WB were in crisis mode over the DCEU as soon as BvS missed the mark with the majority of viewers, long before JL crashed and burned spectacularly.

Yeah, it's sort of nice to run into these people periodically. You watch movies where characters laboriously explain things through dialog that have already been communicated visually and it's like, oh, okay, I guess there's people who actually need that. Also sad in a way, but everybody has their struggles.

What's sad is I think you're actually genuine, because this is, at the very least, the 2nd time we've had this discussion. There's not much point in arguing with you simply because your mind is so myopic it refuses to entertain ideas that contradict your position. You can't even discuss how those other purposes "don't make any sense" because you don't have an argument against it other than "I didn't like it". Like, there are probably 20 other things you can complain about over BvS, like the direction they took Batman in, the nightmare dream sequence, Lex Zuckerberg or whatever, and you literally chose the dumbest hill to die on. It'd be like me going "Avengers sucked, because Hawkguy uses bows. That's so unrealistic, he should be using guns!". McCloud fucked around with this message at 23:40 on Feb 22, 2018 |

Armour protects people, stops them getting hurt, and lets them keep fighting. Batman doesn't get hurt and keeps fighting. He wins the fight, in fact. ...I seriously have no loving clue why you're so sure it did nothing. Did you used to write that Chef Elf website? The one where he would spend hundreds of words yelling that something from Star Wars was dumb without ever getting around to explaining why?

On the IMDB message boards, there were fan groups convinced that another film's fan group was sabotaging the score with fake accounts, shifting it from 8.3 to 8.2. It happened with X-Men 2 and Spiderman 2, for instance, and The Last Samurai and Return of the King. People are paranoid and really petty. HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:They straight up run one of the guys over during the car chase and do a "ooh! That's gotta hurt!" thing.

It's an extremely Marvel move to glibly toss in quiptastic widespread destruction and death in Korea just because it makes for a great car commercial. Which, now that I think about it, I haven't read any writers grappling with. They played that stupid car commercial right before the movie when I saw it. I assumed it was actually just an ad, but no, it was essentially the sequence from the film.

Yeah, the suit is great because it works on so many levels. Practically speaking, it helps keep Batman alive while Superman is less than full star god, but still strong enough to throw him through a wall. Tactically, it fits with the sonic cannons and machine guns to make Superman think that Batman is just going to try to out-muscle him. Psychologically, it's part of how he psychs himself up to take on a god. As world building, the pre-existing damage on it reminds us that he's been at this a while. Visually, it looks cool as hell. And, of course, all of this recontextualizes imagery from The Dark Knight Returns.

Even if all those reasons why Batman wore armor didn't make sense, it's still an allusion to Excalibur, Zack Snyder's favorite movie.

Black Panther was ok. 3rd act sucked hard. Media overhyped the movie for me; it really just felt like the same old MCU stuff. The CG and action set pieces were really bad though. Really bad. I lol'd at the armored rhinos. Killmonger and Klaw were the best thing about the movie. Everything else is pretty forgettable imo.

I don't want to go into it too much here since we have a dedicated thread, but, yeah, I was surprised how little I cared for the action scenes in Black Panther after how good the boxing scenes were in Creed.

I thought the supporting cast, particular the women, were really great. One exception was Forest Whitaker, who stood out as being kind of bland especially considering the secret he was keeping and his subsequent death were supposed to be major turning points in the movie
