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

Holy crap why do so many young "men" whine nowadays over every little life thing.

Because there's always someone out there that feels the same way they do, and nowadays everyone has a right to complain about everything. I remember my cousin was a complainer and my father got tired of hearing about it and told him to either change it or suck it up.

I just watched it and I thought it was great! Maybe my expectations were way lowered because of how bad it was perceived. I honestly don't know why it got SUCH bad reviews. Sure, there were a few plot holes, but overall it was very entertaining, the action was great, and I thought it was a step up from Man of Steel, which I also thought was okay (minus the tornado and the neverending battle in the end).

I thought the tone was good--serious but not "dark". I do have to say that Jesse Eisenberg was by far the WORST Lex portrayal ever. Who thought that performance would have been a good idea? Was the idea to have him be the comic relief of the movie? Jesse even seemed uncomfortable in his performance. Terrible. Despite that, I still thought it was great.

I also had to laugh at how many times it was mentioned that whatever area they were all fighting in was empty! I swear they mention it like 5 times!

Sad Ben Affleck has nothing to feel bad about. I thought he made a great Wayne and Batman. I didn’t particularly notice any outright deaths that he was responsible for. I wasn’t really looking for them, but if he really did kill someone, I didn’t notice. Maybe during the nightmare scene…? Regardless, I’m not that precious about the character so whether he did kill or not is inconsequential to me. I thought his introduction was really cool how he scampered across the ceiling!

I thought WW was great too. I did think Supes could have traded places with WW in the end, and have him hold Doomsday with her lasso, and have her use the spear. It seemed like they were portraying her to be just as strong as Supes, so she could have shoved the spear in DD.

I totally got misty eyed in the end with Supes and Lois, and afterwards in Smallville. I thought Bruce’s speech to WW was very emotional and touching (“I failed him…”). BTW, Lois’s ring, the actual round part, looked enormous when Martha hands it to her! Anyone notice that? Like, I thought, is Clark supposed to wear it?

Anyway, I thought it was a solid movie and I may even end up buying it.

Looks like Mad Old Lu didn't read the above post about the unspoken rules of the forum. . .

Can one of our resident ass-kissers please set him straight?

. . .

I also thought it was comical how often they kept cutting to a news story or whatever, "In other news, Superman and Batman are fighting a giant mutant beast in an abandoned part of the city where there is zero chance of any human collateral! More at 11."

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Like I said, despite Lex being terrible, I still managed to enjoy the movie. Key word: despite!

 

[jye4ever]

Sorry Mad Old Lu too late. Please report to the main office for your forum etiquette "conditioning".

It didn't hurt me at all.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

 

[karamazov80]

JYE is the new number two. Mad Lu is number six.

 

[jye4ever]

I am NOT a number, I am a free man!

kara: "HaHaHaHa!"

 

[Khev]

Obviously I enjoyed BvS but yes, I literally chuckled out loud in the theater at how often they mentioned that population centers were uninhabited, deserted, empty because people were off work, etc. It was like the BvS equivalent of "the water mains are gonna blow!"

 

[jye4ever]

AOU guilty as well with the high rise.

 

[YoNoSe]

JL will have reports of a kinder, gentler Batman and Superman will be wearing a mood ring.

 

[Khev]

During the fighting in JL TV stations will be constantly reporting how inspired citizens are by the upbeat heroes as they thwart the bloodless alien invasion. WW will stop midfight to watch several positive youtube reaction videos.

Meanwhile Snyder at WB Main Office post BvS:

 

[YoNoSe]

Batman will send a group email to the team after the final battle. Subj: Nice Job, Guys!

Just when the conditioning starts to take, he'll suddenly be in a schoolgirl outfit, fighting a dragon to a Marilyn Manson cover of Liionel Richie's "Dancing on the Ceiling."

 

[kryptonianmutie]

[The Real Hierarchy and Rules of The Super Hero Hype *UPDATE*


The Mere Mortals

Mere Mortals are generally the newer members or members with a low post count. Members who don't kiss the moderation's ass and have unpopular opinions are also considered Mere Mortals.

It's required for the Mere Mortals to act like if they were in a British Traditional Tea Ceremony. Etiquette is very important and you need to be VERY CAREFUL with the way you express your opinions. You should know this is a very sensitive place. As you know it is filled with nerds, and traditionally, nerds aren't very tough, so they can't handle a wide variety of perfectly normal human behaviours

It's not enough to simply express yourself without insults. You have to be very cautious with the way you structure your sentences. You are encouraged to not to show any sign of personality. Think of a robot. That's what you should be.

A Mere Mortal also has to be very careful with the way he expresses negative opinions about movies. Feel free to bash anything that comes from WB or Zack Snyder, but if you decide to cr*ap all over Marvel, be prepared to be considered obnoxious, tedious, troll and eventually be asked to stop by a moderator. If you're attacking Marvel, or defending DC, there's a limit on how much you can do it. That limit isn't set in stone, but eventually you will be warned.

Don't ever question anything a moderator does. They're keyboard Gods and know better than any Mere Mortal.

Don't ask for well defined rules. Well defined rules could get in the way of mods doing whatever the f:*CK they want. You could just say "well, but that's not in the rules" and they would be "ups...". They basically create whatever rules they think could help to shut down any member they particularly don't like. It's mostly about personal agendas.

Expect Double Standards. Have you been busy pointing out The Avengers flaws and how much that movie sucks? Well, be careful. That will be considered trolling and you will be asked to stop. They will also suggest you to move on to another topic, if you don't like the movie, just don't waste time with it.

However, if you feel like cr**ping all over BvS, everyday, 24/7, that's basically expressing your opinion and you can do it as much as you would like. Be free to make jokes, post retarded and useless gifs, mock the movies in the same way as much as you would like and insinuate that others are wrong for liking it.

I know this is a rules post, but i can't really go into details, because they simply don't exist. It will depend on the moderator. That one single person, who might even be less smarter than you and less ethical will decide whether or not you should be allowed to post.

The Ass Kissers

Well, Ass Kissers are generally those folks you will find agreeing with everything mods say and thanking mods for everything they do and acting like if mods are very funny. Ass Kissers guard this place like Rottweilers. Flint Marko and The Joker are two great examples of Elite Ass Kissers. They're very respected among the Ass Kissing Brotherhood. They know the ins and outs of the forum, they're always commenting on the behaviour of other users, always trying to figure out who is a previously banned member and always calling for the help of moderators. Always looking for validation from the staff. Like a good dog trying to please his owner.


The Ass Kissers rarely have unpopular opinions. They wanna enforce their views on everyone who praises something they don't like, and they will never let it go. You will find them repeating the same thing all over the forum about the same subjects. That's how they get thousands and thousands of posts. They just repeat themselves. Mods will NEVER side against them. It's like they're ALWAYS right about EVERYTHING.

Ass Kissers can show personality, unlike the Mere Mortals. They're allowed to crack jokes and participate only to ridicule whatever or whoever they don't like. This rarely gives them problems because, like i stated before, they don't have unpopular opinions and they usually only attack the movies that the administration also don't like, so it's all well and good.

If you happen to vomit all over your keyboard after seeing an Ass Kisser kissing a moderator's ass in the most obvious fashion, don't feel bad about yourself. It's normal. I did it too.


Ass Kissers can also be banned. But in order for that to happen they need to do something extreme, like straight up insulting someone. You will certainly not see them getting infractions for "the way they talk" like what happens with the Mere Mortals.

The Staff

The Staff is mostly incompetent and actually damaging to the forum, since they kill its activity by enforcing absurd rules that only drive people away from the site.

I can't really tell you how to achieve this position. But you need to be a major Ass Kisser and Marvel Fantard for a long period of time. Or you need to be personal friends with someone from the staff.

As a Staff member, it's not required of you to be smart. You also need to have a very thin skin, because if you have a thicker skin and can actually accept people's opinions without freaking out on a regular basis, you won't have fun. You won't ban as many people and that can get boring. In order to ban a lot of people you need to act like a sensitive c*nt that has never left his mother's basement, and therefore isn't really prepared to deal with people and accept them as they are.

As a Staff member you're allowed to be biased and twist the rules as much as you want in order to get them to favor your personal agenda. No kind of good judgement is required from you. Is a guy pissing you off by talking a lot of sh**t about your favourite Spider-Man movie? Just ban him. As a staff member, you're just like any other person. But instead of being forced to deal with other people's opinions, you can just ban them. If it looks too unfair and vague, just come up with a BS excuse. Tell them there's something wrong with the way they'r expressing their opinions, even though you might allow the same from other users. Don't be afraid to be judged. Ass Kissers will back you up and thank you for it.
