Honestly, I'm easily entertained with movies and for the most part superhero movies do the job just fine. Spider-Man and the Nolan Batman trilogy are probably the best. I don't really mind if they stick around as long as they are good, there will always be good movies and bad movies in any genre.

I just hate the whole idea of studios fucking with movies to try and appeal to the mass audiences at the cost of their own film. Honestly, as MEH as BVS was, at least that was Zack Snyder's own take on it and he went through with it. I'm not sure how much studio interference went on behind the scenes but to me it seemed like he was allowed to do his own thing, as negative as the reaction was. Then look at something as butchered as Suicide Squad, and know that was the result of the studio shitting themselves and hastily trying to 'fix' the film. It pisses me off to no end.

TL;DR Batman V Superman was a tad on the crappy side but at least Snyder got to make his movie without much fuckery by the studio execs.

Not sure if that is relevant to the thread but yeah.

You could've just saved yourself some time and told me there are autists out there that analyse things like this.

They wouldn't have bothered analyzing it if scrubs could pay attention before yukking it up with this "Man of Murder" stuff.

I think you and these 'analysts' have misconstrued actual critical deconstruction with nitpicking and looking too much into something.

It was a flashy CGI fight, nothing more. It isn't a Kubrick piece.

so because something isn't a piece of high art it has no nuance? you're a fucking idiot.

No, I'm saying Man of Stink has no nuance buttercup.

Man of Stink

witty!

MoS was terrible. Zack Snyder is the worst person one could possibly choose to direct Superman.


Also please tell me no one here thinks MoS is superior to Superman (1979)

Christopher Reeve is the best Superman and Clark Kent to ever play the part. Now we're stuck with a square jaw with zero personality.

I absolutely agree. He is Superman to me.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!

Lmao at that video. Let's just ignore the fact that in the first fight sequence between Clark and Zod, they start out in the middle of no where and then the fight gets brought into Smallville by Clark because he's mad or some shit, putting all the townspeople's lives at risk. I would think it should be obvious that decisions like this were literally only for the sake of showing a cool splosion, and yet we still have people, almost four years later, trying to act like there was some deeper meaning when there clearly wasn't. I really think it's safe to say that Zach Snyder wasn't counting the seconds that Clark was down and factoring it in Clarks mind, rather than just keeping him out of the picture long enough for Zod to do something before the fight resumes lol. Man of Steels story was complete schlock, let's not kid ourselves.

Of course there was a deeper meaning.

We needed that deep iHOP scene.  And we needed every other sponsor logo shoved into our faces during that fight.

Daily reminder film is simply another medium for writer's to tell stories.
