Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (March 24th, 2016)

[Spartan Rex]

I must say, that looks very fake. I hope that's only a quick scene.

Yeah?
Gotta lotta photo reference and experience with caped aliens pulling freighters by the anchor chain in the Arctic do ya?

The shot looks airbrushed to high heaven.

People complainin' about the level of realism in a Zack Snyder's film... Never gets old.

It's still distracting, especially if the movie's trying to do the 'dark gritty realism thing'.

I don't think they're tryin' it with BvS.
MoS was heavily influenced by Nolan and felt like HIS version of Superman, but I'm not feeling it here.
It looks very much like 300 and Watchmen - dark and moody, a little bit gritty, style over substance.

Lol. It depends on who's doing the complaining and how many times they've said the same complaint.

Well yeah, if this is the case then it certainly would make it more tolerable.

If it's doing Watchmen's tone then a shot like that wouldn't bother me as much, for example.

It's not about complaining.

No this is still going to be "grounded in reality." MOS was dark and moody also, maybe a bit too much. This will be more of the same, if not more dark in terms of tone.

Considering that the Watchmen-like title sequence is all but confirmed... Just relax.
Or wait 'till my review next Saturday.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

There's almost no hype for this movie compared to SW. I remember ( a few months ago) how SW was everywhere and you couldn't escape it to the point it was annoying, but with BVS, other than the occasional tv spot, it's like not too many people care. Facebook has the BVS profile photo theme changer, and so far I've seen one guy using it.

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea man, no one using Facebook themes. This flick might break $30 mil opening weekend.

 

[RIDDICK]

Hype is crap.

 

[WWEJedi]

It's a great shot, and could be a nod to Supes dragging planets in space.

What a **** show. That is terrible. Promotional image or not.... that is just awful.

It is not grounded in reality... it is grounded in CGI.

 

[xipotec]

My prediction:
Everyone who is going to opening night will say its the bee's knees......

We will have to wait till after the first weekend to see what the average Joe thinks of it....and a month before any realistic reviews can be had.
By then they will have all our money....

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Yea man, no one using Facebook themes. This flick might break $30 mil opening weekend.

Still, I think it's a good indication of how much interest is out there for this film.

FB looked like this a few months ago.

 

[RIDDICK]

Star Wars is crap.

 

[jye4ever]

Clown is right, not only is the hype much less evident than it was with TFA, I would go as far as saying that TDK's hype was much greater!

TDK almost had TFA level hype!

No worries, i'm still seeing this ****er!
