ASM 2 Electro Scenes were basically My Super Ex-Girlfriend but with named Superheroes.

It honestly sounds like that's what you're trying to say, because getting mad at something like that seems really silly when you could just latch onto how dumb Uncle Ben's death is in ASM1.
How awesome would it have been if Uncle Ben pulled an Ozymandias from Watchmen and caught the bullet in his bare hands.

My main issue with it was you couldn't see the webs on it. Just make them thicker. It also had a little too much going on with the panels and seams, leading to a lot of extraneous elements that really didn't add much.

his eyes moved, though, which was cool.

Somebody in one of these two comic book movie threads was lamenting about about why DC can't pull off the storytelling that Marvel has mostly managed so far since DC characters are "so easy to write". Something like that. I can't find the post.

I disagree and think that Marvel characters are much much easier to write since, from the start, the main idea behind their characters was always to ground them in real world problems and make them sort of relatable. I would think that weaving a DCU together would be much harder than writing coherent Marvel stories.

Like, compare JL to Avengers. The hardest character to work into Avengers is Thor. With JL, you've got an Altantean, an Amazon, a resurrected Kryptonian plus a regular rich guy, a robot and a dude who can time travel. DC always seemed harder to create coherent stories around to me. I'm not sure where I'd start beyond ignoring continuity and crossovers.

I mean, although I think Marvel movies are infantile for the most part, you're being disingenous. You've got an out of time ex-runt WW2 Supersoldier who doesn't have a clear-cut enemy like the Nazis to fight, an ego-maniacal rich guy trying to police the world with/against technology that seems to be just a bit beyond him, a self aware robot god, a russian spy fighting for america, an alien, and a man-monster who until recently was Jekyll and Hyde writ large. I mean, Falcon and Ant Man are like the only two basic dudes here.

I'm just saying there's a wide spectrum both sides have.

Bigger Boat, disingenuous only in that your reductions were overly simplistic. I get the pantheon bit though.

They already crammed "The Dark Knight Returns" and "Death of Superman" into one film.

And it turned out really well.

Did we ever get extra Joker scenes somewhere?So much of Jared's performance was cut, right?
I thought he was fantastic.

I think it won for makeup and hair. El Diablo's tats and Croc in general are probably the standout.

Honestly it all just seemed like normal visuals. I can't see how they won anything or whatever. I mean they were okay I guess, but I've seen the same exact quality of hair and makeup on (good) TV shows, I would think.

Maybe I'm conflating CGI with physical makeup or whatever. But whatever. It's not like the Oscars do anything more than act as a marketing device or industry ego fluffer anyways.
