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

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

.
Just a question for anyone... I have been very careful not use the word "fun." I don't consider this a fun movie, but I do consider this a movie I enjoy. Does this make sense? I agree with the critics that it is not a fun movie, but that doesn't take away from anything in my opinion.

Enjoying something and "fun" aren't mutually exclusive, imo.

Out with friends for dinner ....went to movie tavern and everyone wants to see this movie. Second viewing in 5....and I wasn't going to watch it at all opening weekend

That's how it starts, the bitterness, the rage, the negative buzz that makes men; curious...

I have an issue with this and I am glad you posted this. This Batman is built as a super bad-a**. He is not afraid to fight Superman because it may be the only thing that he does that truly matters. Then in the fight he basically ****s his pants..... That is another moment I would personally edit out. I don't like it. Sure, it adds a more human aspect to Batman, but I personally don't view Batman like this. He is cool, calm, and composed in fights, that scene goes against it.

I have mixed feelings about it.

Part of me agrees with you.

What else is there to do in Ohio.

I believ it wasn't all CGI all the time, they did make a physical armor and used it in some shots

That's awesome! Thanks, fellas. Great to know that Affleck actually wore the armor.

Depends on where you live

i am really wondering what the young audiences were thinking with this, this movie kind of felt like watching inception to me. or watching fight club or something
If i was 10 i dont think i would have made it through, this is a very adult movie. the themes, the character interactions, the plot, the only thing for kids is basically the end.

Fun has been reduced to amount of quips and jokes, I have fun when I see 2 guys in tights beat the **** out of each other, I have fun when a story engages me, dark or serious as it can be, even horror movies can be fun, I don't know why fun became a misnomer and reduced to funny or comedy. Personally I did have fun.

Kind of like the Nolan TDKT films. I don't think any of them are for kids.

this might be more adult than those just because of how dramatic Snyder made it. it definitely feels much more dramatic.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

this was way more adult than those.

No way.

 

[crows]

No way.

maybe not more adult but definitely more dramatic. more dreadful.

My 7 year old son liked it.

When do all the Hot Toys figures for this start coming out anyway? I was looking in the threads and didn't see any ETAs.

Building the suit? I'm surprise it wasn't in the film. Maybe they thought it would be too similar to Iron Man? Which is the wrong reason not to do something, if that something is a good idea, like not putting an after credit scene because that's the "Marvel way."

Exactly! Just like the 'this part of the city is deserted' and the 'thank god it's the end of the working day and no one's in the city' comments, it seemed like they were just trying not to upset anyone.

 

[jye4ever]

Yup,

true I had to keep the soda and popcorn coming.

I was worried about the Man-Bat scene but he did fine with it, no nightmares either!

Those comments were annoying.

But I guess in real life they would say such a thing.

True, I smiled when I saw that. AOU did that too...Tony even bought a building in like 5 seconds just to justified the destruction

My 6 year old son really enjoyed the movie. He didn’t ask a ton of questions when it was over so i don’t think it was too confusing for his little mind. He knew what was going on. He sat there for 2.5 hours and didn't move once- eyes fixated on the screen the whole time- that is a pretty big feat in itself. If he was confused or bored he definitely would have asked to leave or been squirming in his seat like hell (especially after all the candy he ate). I warned him that the monster, doomsday, kills superman in the comics so that he wouldn't be too upset if it happened in the movie. He still cried at the end, he said dad "i really can't believe superman died, "superman can’t die" lol he obviously didn't believe me- He didn’t notice the dirt floating, or if he did he didn’t know what it meant. The one thing that he didn't like was the Vampire Bat scene- it scared the crap out of him.
