| Batman Vs. Superman: We're Still Letting Zack Snyder Make Movies I guess |

Has anybody seen this yet? I've got a ticket for tomorrow afternoon. For those who don't know me, I'm a huge Superman fan. I fucking love Superman and I'm kind of protective of him because I think he gets the short end of the stick a lot in modern comic fandom. Needless to say, I really, really hate Man Of Steel. I was sort of indifferent to it when it came out, but I've come to absolutely despise it because the more I think about it the more clear to me it is that Zack Snyder, and by extension Warner Brothers and the committee responsible for the script, doesn't know or care about Superman at all. I'm very cautiously optimistic about this movie, since if you asked me to fix the new Superman movie franchise I probably would have pitched something like this. I'm not particular fan of Batman, but we basically have a morally ungrounded douchebag Superman to deal with, so a different hero slapping some sense into him is the only thing I can think of to try to salvage his character. That, or retcon any scene from Man Of Steel with Johnathan Kent in it. So while I don't have any reason to assume this movie will be any better or have any more reasoned understanding of the character than the last one, at leas the potential groundwork is there for it to maybe start to get the franchise on track. That's proooooobably not going to happen, but I'm an optimist so I guess I have no choice but to keep an open mind. |

The movie has 33% on rotten tomatos. So your probably gonna hate it. Also is it time for us to say Zack Snyder has overthrown Micheal Bay on the throne for "Most Hated Movie Director To Make Lots Of Money"? |

And they said Ben was gonna be the sole reason this movie will suck, oh boi were they wrong. TBH though, I kinda like it. It's not the best Batman film, but certainly isn't like George Clooney's. Wasn't dark as most people expected, and overall, it's really mediocre. Unlike Marvel movies which presents you with some light humour, and story, most DC I've seen these days contrasts Marvel. So I wouldn't compare it to Avengers or something tbh, and certainly not Age of Ultron(that thing sucked balls for me). Edit: Yes, Man of Steel was better overall if we're talking about continuity. NO, PLEASE NO CHRISTIAN BALE MOVIES COMPARISON. |

Well, the person who was supposed to buy my ticket just didn't, but she bought tickets for everyone else in my group so I guess I have to go by myself at some point? Which sounds pretty terrible? And she bought and charged everyone for super-deluxe 3D tickets without asking them which they're all pretty pissed about, so I guess I dodged that bullet at least. :wat: |
