8-Bit Scholar posted:Tony Stark is still better than Reed Richards, who is useless. Fantastic Four would work if they didn't keep trying to make them grounded and gritty. The FF are balls to the wall science insanity and any movie with them should have a dozen different threads going on at once. Teleportation, Annihilus attacking from the negative zone, Galactus doing a flyby, the Watcher inviting them to tea on his moon base, Johnny Storm casually playing pranks on Ben using a time machine stolen from Doom (who NEVER appears in the movie), a dozen alien species walking around in the background, their two kids getting into trouble, the house robots gaining sentience and going on strike, Reed locking himself in the lab for half the movie and Sue yelling at him because he promised to take them for ice cream and the Mole Man attacks them with a 100 metre high monster and ten thousand Moloids. And throw in the Eternals and Deviants and Skrulls disguised as furniture and anything else the ever appeared in the comics. Also, at least three different dimensions, including the Microverse (and insulting Hank Pym), must be passed through with absolutely no fanfare whatsoever. No overarching plot, just a 'day in the life' where life is insane. Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 10:39 on Mar 30, 2016 |

So apparently Suicide Squad is going back and reshooting a tonne of scenes with added "character interaction and humour" because every single funny moment in the movie was in the trailer.

I'm getting the feeling, from Zack Snyder's interview, that the whole "Martha" moment was a core point the entire movie was built around. "Like they're fighting and just destroying everything, right? Then Superman calls out his mother's name, Martha, and it happens to be Batman's mother's name! Oh my god. It changes everything, right. Audiences will be blown the gently caress away! Give me a quarter of a billion dollars." Of course, it's not the first time a whole work has been created just a single shared name moment: Star Trek v X-Men.  achillesforever6 posted:I still can't believe they couldn't just adapt this I always liked this moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ME66HTeNbHY Because of course Batman already knows who they are. He's Batman.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Have any of them used their special eyes to determine the true author's intent of my posts? It reminds of how things were a few years ago across half the forums where everybody was libertarian. That loving poo poo was everywhere because babbies first interest in philosophy plus internet makes for some really stupid poo poo. CineD is just going through a similar phase, only rather than discussing how it's moral to heat their homes with the bodies of the poor, they've "discovered" Zizek, so it's all overblown cargo cult postmodern psychosocial film critique

Like, I don't know if it will be as big a mess as Snyder's made Superman, but it certainly seems to be planning on dipping in to a dark tone w/ it being set in WW1 of all things. This horrible creepy webcomic has never been more relevant:

That's a whole lot of images to say, "their mothers had the same name which is why they stopped fighting" and expecting us to be blown away as though it was some incredibly deep revelation. Not explicitly stated by half a dozen characters = deeply profound subtlety.

There was (and probably still is) one poster called Tyrannosaurus, or something, who would post these huge rambling 'death of the author' screeds of every terrible movie which came out. He spent thousands of words on why the Transformers sequels were the greatest works of art ever made, for example. Initially everyone made fun of him. Then people started imitating him. Now it's turds all the way down.

How did the Kryptonians create him? What loving hack wrote that? It sounds as bad as Speilberg having to make everyone related in Star Wars. Superman's dad built C3PO.

Cap was working with a bunch of reconstructed super villains. And by "reconstructed" I mean that literally. SHIELD had taken fragments of cosmic cubes and rebuilt their bodies and personalities into nice, lawabiding people. Mind rape, pretty much. But it's okay because they're the good guys. But all the fragments of cosmic cubes had merged together into the form of a young girl, because of loving course they did. This girl turned Cap from the geriatric and feeble self he's been the past year or so into a young and fully powered Captain America. She also seems pretty lacking in human morality and empathy, doing some pretty sketchy things. You know, standard 'god child does not understand her own strength or this human thing you call...love'. So, gee, I wonder if this physical embodiment of the power to change reality itself has anything to do with Captain loving America suddenly remembering a lifetime of being a Hydra agent. Naah.

Fonzarelli posted:can you imagine how clever Hack Snyder thought he was when realised that superman and batman's mum have the same name? Definitely. You can feel he wanted to hinge the entire movie on that moment. Two enemies finding this unexpected connection in the middle of a fight. The childlike innocence and purity of their love for the mothers brought to the fore during a bloody fight of inhuman brutality where the city itself shakes in fear. The audiences' minds are blown. Oh. My. God. If only it wasn't in such a mediocre movie with such terrible direction that everyone just laughed at them instead.

Flesh Forge posted:I recently re-watched Man of Steel and holy loving poo poo that's a bad movie in retrospect. I gave the early parts of the movie on Krypton way too much credit, the whole thing is just brutally terrible from start to finish. Michael Shannon and Antje Traue were both great but otherwise it's such a ponderous, pretentious slog. When Teen Clark saves a busload of children from death and his dad chews his rear end for it I couldn't stand it any more and quit watching. Actual conversation at DC:  : Let's make a movie about one of our top tier superheroes. One who is selfless, kind, dedicated and believes in helping people. The guy they made the word "superhero" for. : Who should we get to direct it? : I don't know, but make sure he's a libertarian.

mind the walrus posted:Joe Quesada hosed over 25 years of Spider-man stories to undo his marriage. It's not like that kind-of petty behavior would be unprecedented. Quesada making Spider-Man single for the first time in a quarter of a century because he had a hard on for the lovely "Peter can't date because his web slinging gets in the way" stories of his childhood is still one of the stupidest things which has ever happened in comics*. Having a sniper take down Aunt May and then making Spider-Man sell his marriage to the devil to save her  * Not to mention how contemptuous it was to the readers.
