Oh I plan to eventually see TWS, and not just because Chris Evans is in it.

As for the idle guard thing, I'm not saying it's not wrong to do it, but I'm not going to go out of my way to hark on the movie for it when plenty of movies have done it before. It's hard for me to criticize it so much when it's a rarity for movies to do it right over wron,g and I'm just a brain dead cinema monkey who's more focused on Batman being Batman.

And even if they did, just because it's "common place" to not give a shit about small details like that doesn't really excuse the fact that the movie is still worse for it.

I guess that's fair, I'm just saying this new Luthor didn't really bother me because he did what needed to be done with a Luthor. Nothing else was really needed I guess, but maybe you're right in that muscle man Lex should've been in instead of Mark Zuckerberg.

I'm open to new interpretations too, but not when they're worse than the tried-and-true versions everyone is familiar with. Being different for the sake of being different? Nah. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Considering the main focus on the movie is the conflict between the two heroes, I don't find it a problem to see Luthor setting the stages of the other conflicts both in this film and the next one.

That's another issue with the movie altogether.

Well, at least you admitted it.

See, for me, I had to watch the movie a second time because I was so torn on it during my first viewing. On the one hand, I had a LOT of problems with it, being a bit of a movie buff and all. But on the other hand, this new Batman and Henry Cavill's Superman are the best version of either characters we've ever had on the big screen, and for the first time, they're side by side, going at it. A part of me just got so giddy when either of them were visible, so I understand the impulse to give it a higher rating then it probably deserves.

When I see a Marvel movie, I'm kinda like "Oh, awesome. That's a cool character we just happen to call Captain America." But when I saw this movie, I'm like "Oh, that's Batman and Superman. That's them, they're not actors." It was awesome.

Considering the main focus on the movie is the conflict between the two heroes, I don't find it a problem to see Luthor setting the stages of the other conflicts both in this film and the next one.

I have a few theories on how they could "fix" their mistakes with him here. He's in prison at the end of the movie, they could very easily say "Prison changed him" and he becomes the Luthor we all know and love in the next film.

Just wish they could've gotten it right on the first go. Oh well.

Not everyone's a baby like you.

Nah. The whole "my mindset is the RIGHT one, anyone who disagrees just has bad taste" is the real sign of immaturity. Some people liked Batman, get over it.

If you wanna like the movie, fine. I seriously don't care. All I'm asking people to do is fucking justify it.

Christ, you've mastered making a mountain out of a molehill.

This isn't even about the specific movie, it's about this mentality of "bad taste". There's no such thing as it. There are different tastes, because everyone has a different life and different things they find interesting and engaging. The fact that you're going to disdain anyone who doesn't hate a goddamn superhero movie as much as you do is the issue here.

I haven't even seen the movie, but if I hated it, do you know what I would say? "I didn't like the movie." I wouldn't say "It's a bad movie."

Of fucking course it is.

Lol, why even respond to my posts ITT when they're obviously about your mindset and not Batman?

Why even respond to my posts

You make a interesting point.

Honestly my biggest gripe with the movie was Jesse Eisenberg, and the actress who played Wonder Woman. He can't act for shit and was annoying, while she didn't  just didn't fit the role.

She wasn't as bad as I thought she was going to be, granted. I just wasn't intimidated by her, she's not strong enough to be Wonder Woman.

Eisenberg gave me absolutely no hope for the future of this franchise.

I can't believe people making this movie thought Eisenberg actually wasn't a shitty casting decision.

I haven't seen the movie at all but I give it a 13/10 for effort.

I'm going to watch it next week, hope I enjoy it

Bryan Cranston or Bruce Willis should have been Lex Luthor

Why should I have to justify what I enjoy to you?

I never said you have to. I'm just asking you to.

I'm not on board with Momoa.

He could be a great Aquaman, but the problem is going to be that he's going to be poorly written character with zero depth.

I feel like they're going for a DCAU Aquaman instead of the objectively superior New 52 Aquaman, unfortunately.

I just couldn't see him starring in a Throne of Atlantis movie, which is just upsetting.

Yeah, that clip from BvS tells me that they're probably going to have him be underwater Khal Drogo. I think he could pull off a better version of Aquaman but unfortunately he's been typecast as this savage warrior character and I don't think it will be a very worthwhile addition to the DCCU.

Hook-hand Mullet Aquaman a best Aquaman.
