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

Perfect analogy and great way to some how work in T2 into the conversation.

Saved.

She reminds me of Famke Janssen in Goldeneye there.

I wonder is it comparable to a scenario where if, say, Hot Toys made a figure of Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese with today's standards and advances in toy-making technology (and some people end up being really happy with that)....whereas fans of the 'proper' Kyle Reese have to make do with MMS01. A great figure for its time but it shows its age now. A frustrating situation.

I think comparing T5 Jai Courtney to Snyder Superman is a perfectly appropriate analogy.

Yes, in the 'gritty and realistic' comic book movie, heroes all get off on the violence.

Only good thing about the movie

That's just absurd (no offense) I'm not even a big fast and furious fan, I really don't have any strong opinions on it, but to say those movies are bad while saying this was one of the best ever made is just absurd.

That's what I mean by hardcore fan blind defending. Saying things that are irrational lol.

C'mooooooooooooooooooooon

I don't know if it's the best CBM, probably not, but it's definitely better than most of them, and to think it's on the same level as F&F... THAT is absurd

And don't you dare preach about irrationality when you posted like 50 dumb questions from people who were sooooo confused with the plot, that I wonder how they tie their own shoes

Meh. This thread has officially plateaued. It's the same arguments over and over, but now with the added layer of Fast & Furious poop... for some reason.

My fault... Someone brought it up and I went on a F&F rant

That's just absurd (no offense) I'm not even a big fast and furious fan, I really don't have any strong opinions on it, but to say those movies are bad while saying this was one of the best ever made is just absurd.

I am sure that you probably feel that way

BUT


I can turn that around and say the same thing... Anyone who can enjoy the F&F films just a little and find nothing to like about BvS is just a hater. Saying things like "that's the only good part of the film (about WW smile) is irrational



See how that works


How about me... I hate most of the F&F flicks and found BvS to be disappointing yet still entertaining. How is that for perplexing

or perhaps it's just rational

Yes, in the 'gritty and realistic' comic book movie, heroes all get off on the violence.

Now now, Hulk smiled after spitting his own tooth out in your precious AoU.

 

[JAWS]

So Fast and Furious is now superior to BvS and the previously loathed AOU is now the beacon BvS should've followed into greatness.

If this was MOS, ok then.

F&F films (not part 2 or 4 though) and BvS are all better then AoU

People need to learn that if you HATE something there's no point in voicing said hate ad nauseam.

They won't. It's such a pervasive mindset online. Especially among Millennials. "I have an opinion, and you MUST hear it! (Epecially if it's something I hate)!!" How else to explain all the weird narcissistic YouTube videos, too?

I used to think people just engaged in heated debates from the negative perspective because they cared. But not really. That's just a few. The rest just enjoy having a voice and get off on the snarkiness.

There's no other way to explain it. Or maybe I just don't get it because I'm an old guy who barely had enough time to discuss the things I do enjoy, much less waste it rambling about things I don't.

 

[GasparZizou]

Hey Irish, have you by any chance got to see a little of the JL script or something? Any insider info for us? Pretty please?

 

[IrishJedi]

I can't, because I've not yet read the final shooting script and also because if I did leak anything jye would be right and I'd be exiled to Sony or something.

What about his Ice Breathe? Did he ever give a reason for that? Hopefully he uses his ventriloquism powers in JL movie.

Mos had a more coherent story.
Mos had a more coherent villain,
Mos ending had better flow.
Mos didn't have unnecessary characters or unnecessary plots that served no purpose.
Everything in mos had a reason to be or a reason to happen.
Mos has a very straightforward story to tell.

U say u wont apologize for mos hate because of batman in this making it better , but zod was equally awesome and badass and mos had faora which was cooler than lois, wonder womans final entrance with doomsday was cool but I think faora was much cooler and had better fights.


Mos wasn't as dark as this either.

About fast and furious, u guys were the ones talking about what success means and u measure success and stuff..... U guys were the ones bringing up the fact not reaching a billion is still a success, and that the rotten score doesn't matter and how not even fan scores matter...

Yet technically fast and furious was successful in all fields

MoS was a well put together film. Say what you like about your personal feelings towards that particular take on the characters, but there was nothing majorly wrong with the film itself. It wasn't an absolute masterpiece, but it was certainly a better film than BvS, and a lot of other CBMs too.

 

[IrishJedi]

Here's a tidbit that probably wouldn't get me in trouble: There's a MASSIVE exterior set at Leavesden Studios right now and I'm surprised no one has taken spy photos with drones yet, like what happened at Pinewood during TFA and Rogue One.

 

[GasparZizou]

Oh I just noticed your FB link is your real FB huh? Yeah you definitely can't leak anything

EDIT: Oh, thanks for that tidbit. it is a city?

Yeah, it had people acting, saying things and it ended. Very well put together (not ****ing really).

Crap I hate how you are doing this to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, the "rise of the reaction video" is just not something I can get behind. There's this entire movement of people, much more than in previous decades, who pontificate not out of love for the topic being discussed but because of a narcissistic need to rise to the top of the click-bait pile.

When you have people chomping at the bit for the next "hilarious" installment of "Everything wrong with..." "X amount of unforgivable plot holes from..." "How such and such should have ended," then they start watching movies with the mindset of "how can I bend this viewing experience into such and such youtube series that will make me hilarious and awesome?" An entire generation of internet flunkies are so desperate to be the next revered "Steve Plinkett" that they try and twist every movie they see into the next "Attack of the Clones." The bigger the success or "event" or whatever that you can tear down just makes you that much more awesome (in their minds obviously.) I actually saw it more in the TFA thread than here but still, there's no avoiding it if you want to have any kind of discussion about films on a site with a sizable crowd that is under the age of 40 (I say "sizable" because obviously there are guys and gals younger than 40 who don't succumb to the narcissistic trolling of the rest of the pack.)
