That trailer is tight as poo poo. Digging Cumberbatch's accent too! But honestly? I think my dad is gonna love it. He's such a Doctor Strange fanboy  Going with him to see this will be so fun.

I'm okay with a change in color scheme but one of Rita Repulsa's defining characteristics is her impressive headdress. Thing is huge and has horns on it, because she's supposed to be Pure Evil. Where is her headdress in that promo image? Woman is a BAMF. Let her flaunt it with a crown of pure evil.

Apocalypse trailer is extremely cool and I'm super excite. JLaw seems like a pretty decent actress, but I don't buy her as Mystique, her voice and demeanour aren't mature enough to pull off the character. I definitely prefer the first iteration of the character. Oh well, maybe they'll hire someone with a deeper voice next time.

Mazzagatti2Hotty posted:Wait are we somehow looping around to arguing that Batman's actions in the first half of BvS are completely rational things that a non totally insane person would do? My point is that Batman's actions are crazy but that Captain America and Iron Man are also kinda nuts for carrying on the way they do, and that the divide is not as big as people think.

Mazzagatti2Hotty posted:Ok, that reading of the superhero genre is fine but it doesn't have much to do with my post about Civil War, which again gives Tony and Cap reasonably sane reasons for being in conflict, whereas BvS is rather explicit about Batman's mental illness being a major driver of his conflict with Superman. Are you trying to imply that Tony Stark is not mentally ill and that he doesn't have huge psychological issues driving him? Are you trying to imply that Cap doesn't have significant issues that drive him to do things like hiding the true nature of the deaths of Howard and Maria Stark, a lie that drives Tony to try and kill Bucky? Just because their reasons for opposing each other are good doesn't mean that they don't have severe mental problems driving that reasoning. Tony is driven by guilt over Sokovia and that he got a face put to the consequences of his conflict. Cap literally cannot function if Bucky is in danger. Those are not sane reasons for doing anything and yet they were present. Like, dude, dysfunction is the name of the game in superhero media.

CelticPredator posted:I don't agree. I don't really have an argument against it, I just fundamentally do not believe this. It just goes against what I believe in when it comes to my personal art. I just don't like making bad things, if I can help it. How do you cope with the existence of works like Watchmen or Hamlet? I'm not trying to be cruel, I'm just raising my eyebrows at the idea that tragedy is anathema to art.

CelticPredator posted:For me, it's a couple of things. Character drives story, as well as having the story flow in a natural way. Natural could mean a lot of things, I don't to really nail that down to a specific thing. Watchmen doesn't flow quite as neatly as say, Raiders of the Lost Arc, but nothing in Watchmen feels like it's unnatural to the story at hand with the characters and their lives. Why would I call you dumb? I like character driven stories too. I'm trying to understand why you didn't like the BvS movie, I haven't gotten much out of your posts besides "well I didn't like it," which is too broad and then "well it didn't make me feel good" which I don't really understand. So I'm trying to get to the bottom of why. Because when I saw the movie I was surprised at just how character driven it was, that the characters were consistent (which is hard to pull off in any movie) and that their actions made sense for the arcs presented within the movie. Those characters were larger than life but they are still incredibly human and I managed to connect with them quite easily. Maxwell Lord posted:There's a difference between works which are emotionally trying because bad things happen, and works which are intellectually trying because the storytelling is less than straightforward. It's the difference between Hamlet and Ulysses. BvS is a tragedy. That's really all there is to it. It ends with bodies everywhere. The plot only gets obscure because so much is happening, I think if it was a little less packed or else had fewer cuts, it would be easier to follow. But I still managed just fine and I was in the front row, I could barely see anything hahaha.

Timeless Appeal posted:Is there a reason Marvel isn't doing everything in their power to get Brad Bird to direct a Marvel movie? Someone posted previously about the possibility that Marvel's micromanagement has driven away the real talent, which means they're stuck with what they've got. Not to drag the Russos, they're good at what they do, but that's probably why. I mean, for God's sake. Edgar Wright was on their team and they still hosed that up. So no, Brad Bird probably isn't jumping on with Marvel.

I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't some backroom dealing for good reviews, but critics don't have the power they once had. Paying for good reviews doesn't sound like a worthwhile investment.

Tiberius Christ posted:Well Zach Snyder did direct a couple superman movies that's basically loving around with nerd religious icons and any radically different treatment on them is going to send the fanatics into a frenzy. It's the classic case of audiences getting upset because the movie on the screen doesn't match the movie in their heads. I don't love everything Snyder does but everything he does do is vibrantly different from whatever the current fashion is. He's completely willing to put what's in his head on the screen and he doesn't let anyone push him around. I really respect that.

Honest Thief posted:Isn't the American banking system rigged in such a way your credit score is actually better if you get a loan? Much of the American economy runs on the basis that everyone is in debt to each other. Finances are such that if a large enough chunk of people start being responsible with their money than money stops changing hands between banks, lenders, and debt collectors, which could cause a significant market crash. On the other hand, all shell games have an expiration date, and sooner or later no one can repay what they owe, which is how the financial crisis of 2008 happened, and the money stopped changing hands anyway.

quote:"Well, first of all she'd be turning over in her grave," Atwell said, with a grin. "She'd be like 'no.' And she'd inject herself with the blue serum and become a super villain. She'd break out of her coffin and ground [Sharon]. She'd ground her. Then she'd kick Steve's rear end as well." Finally, someone said it.
