DrVenkman posted:It's kind of hilarious to me that Paramount has forced WB to spend a ton of money on digitally erasing a CG moustache instead of letting Cavill shave and just using a fake one. Seriously, lol. Hollywood is so stupid. I just watched a feature length film with seamless ape pantomime, you could watch the hairs on Caesar's nutsack emote in real time, yet they can't just chromakey out a drat mustache.

wyoming posted:What the gently caress. Fester is the emotional heart of both films! Also, Debbie owns, and the summer camp stuff is much stronger and funnier because it's the B plot. If you'd cut anything it's the Pubert stuff but it remains funny that the only thing Puggsley does for the whole film is try to kill him in funny ways, and the "he's very sick" gag makes me laugh just thinking about it.

Mexico is Catholic as hell (I think 85 percent of the population, maybe a bit more, identifies as such), and you've got a guy descending from the sky, saving lives and hovering over them like a benevolent giver of life? Hell yeah they're going to think this is the Second Coming. Yeah, they know what's up. It's less that they are superstitious madre de dios! brown people and more that they're completely comfortable with signs and wonders.

McSpanky posted:I think it works with the general Dark Knight Returns comic aesthetic they have going on with him. He's huge and thick like an old heavyweight boxer, not lean and trim like an athlete in his prime. It's not just the aesthetic they're going for (although they cut out Jena Malone as Carrie Kelley, which makes me mad), but that specific design refers to the character's backstory as one who's descended to selfrighteous delusions.

It's probably my favorite depiction of Batman overall.

teagone posted:Most will say the exposure of her abdomen/vital organs. If you cover her abs it's basically the same as her WW costume though so The 'battle bikini' complaint is about body conformity and conventional beauty. It's usually 'bad' because the insistence is that the woman be a busty model with a childlike face, rather than a jacked shotputter. The complaint that it's bad because a woman is showing her midriff is bizarrely puritanical.

BrianWilly posted:In the WW film, the Amazons went into battle with functional and well-designed armor. The same Amazon who wore that functional armor in WW is now dressed much skimpier and more revealingly in JL for no apparent reason, and she's just one of multiple examples. OK, so why are their thighs bare in WW?

BrianWilly posted:Fidelity to bona fide historical armor design, which prioritized the protection of the torso while leaving the limbs more freedom of movement. It wasn't a matter of modesty but of function. But the 'fidelity' is purely aesthetic. Why don't the Amazons have one breast removed? Why doesn't Ares show up nude? BrianWilly posted:So the new excuse now is that Snyder showed off men in a completely different film eleven years ago so it's okay for him to show off women now in this film? Patti Jenkins "showed off" women in the film, Wonder Woman.

If you were looking for a problematic sexual element, it would be that her outfit is designed to display her prominent musculature (ie. thighs, arms, back, abs), not that the immortal demigod curiously lacks protection from a fuckin' leather cuirass.

Jenkins managed show off women to women and for women without having to say "Hey look how much more powerful and Amazonian you feel if you just show off your abs in a field of battle!

Wonder Woman was invented by a man with a femdom kink. If you were making a film for women, directed at women, you'd throw the whole thing out and start fresh.
