Red Batman RIP.

Reminder:

>Not just content to understand that DC and Marvel movies are different, there are certain fans who debate the merits of one blockbuster brand being better than another. And that means actors, directors, and executives also have to make the case for their projects as they get drawn into the conversation, when we should really just be thankful that Hollywood is at least trying make the onslaught of comic book movies to come at least have a little variety. Regardless, Ben Affleck, a.k.a. Batman, is the latest to add his voice to what makes DC movies standout from the Marvel-verse, and it will undoubtedly spark more heated talk.

>“It is more mythic, it is more grand in that way, and it is a little more realistic,” he told EW (print edition). “Just by their nature, these films can’t be as funny or as quick or as glib as Marvel movies.”
>>
I legitimately feel bad for Affleck

From what I hear, he's the one consistently praised thing about the thing
>>
So - will they keep chugging forward with the plans they layed out or will they scrap it all AGAIN and start over?
>>
>>81048608
Affleck killed it in his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman though.

Snyder and Goyer ruined BVS not having the story focus on it's own narrative.
That's not to say it's a bad film but rather okay.
>>
>>81048750
>>“It is more mythic, it is more grand in that way, and it is a little more realistic,” he told EW (print edition). “Just by their nature, these films can’t be as funny or as quick or as glib as Marvel movies.”

And the critics hated it.
The movie dared to be something else, something more than just a popcorn film and was punished.

It will be a cult favorite.
>>
>>81049328
Just go back to Mars, /co/ can't bother you there
>>
If DC were smart to let someone like Nolan handle the DCU and keep Goyer and Synder far, far away, there would be no problem.
>>
>>81049109
They basically said that BvS has to make a billion for plans to not fall though.
>>
>>81049363
No, the problem is that the movie promised to be something other more than a popcorn film, but turns out it's just another popcorn film with religious references and a more serious tone.
>>
>>81049390
Nolan couldn't even finish out the trilogy in a satisfying way, he'd fuck up the DCU in no time.
>>
>>81049450
He would, but because he only wanted to do two movies.
You may question the quality of his films, but he's a creative, he likes doing different things and when you force him to do something he doesn't want to, he'll do a half-assed job.
>>
>>81049390
Nolan was never happier than when he was no longer obligated to translate Goyer-drivel onto the silver screen. He would never ever helm the doomed DCCU and it's clusterfuck of executive meddling.
>>
>>81049363
Except Deadpool was praised for not being made by Disney and parting with MCU convention (In its case by being R-rated and parodying superhero cliches)
And Age of Ultron was also pretty unanimously criticized for jamming its own story with advertisements for upcoming sequels and spin-offs
>>
>>81049450
as far as concluding his Batman, I felt the 'look up and see you at a table across from me, having started a new life, we share no words and never meet again' was an exceptional finish for the incarnation.
>>
>>81049363
>The movie dared to be something else

I don't give a fuck what it dared to do, I care about what it did.

The movie failed as a popcorn movie and it failed as something deeper.
>>
>>81049430
>but turns out it's just another popcorn film with religious references and a more serious tone.
And why the fuck are these mutually exclusive?
>>
>>81049533
Where did he say that?

>>81049494
Deadpool was praised because it was funny and an entertaining movie taking shots at the Superhero movie genre without being idiotic about it.
>>
>>81049494
Deadpool was a comedy.
>>
>>81049510
Having the vigilante hero abandon his vigilantism and run off to Europe to fuck a criminal works decently for characters that are definitely not Batman.

Daredevil was legit awesome though; just remember to watch the directors cut.

>expecting anything good from Snyder
He managed to fuck up Watchmen into generic capeshit, and MoS was terrible- did you really expect this to be good outside of feverdreams?
>>
>>81048569
I feel like everyone on set was thinking they were making a great film, and when you view each scene individually they are all solid. But then when they edit the scnenes together it just fell apart.
>>
>>81049574
Is it possible the bad word of mouth could take it below Deadpool's opening weekend (130M)? Last I saw the tracking was around 160M.
>>
>>81049602
Huntress' origin is literally Batman getting old, retiring, and fucking Catwoman.
>>
>>81049788
So many tickets were pre-sold I doubt word of mouth will affect the opening weekend significantly
>>
>>81049753
No anon, you just don't understand Snyder's deep vision.

Have you ever watched an interview with him? Notice the depths of insight he offers into the coolness of the various shots. Clearly this is a man of deep artistic understanding.
>>
>>81049602
Bale Batman succeeded at his original goal of inspiring Gotham. If he had continued to be Batman, then he would be a failure.
>>
>>81049623
No it wasn't. It wasn't as bad as that rating makes it out to be, bullseye and kingpin were good. But garner fucked up Elektra and by extension daredevil.
>>
>>81049363

>The movie dared to be something else, something more than just a popcorn film and was punished.

Why, it's almost as if the film's problems have less to do with "ZOMG DC IS DIFFERENT" and more to do with storytelling principles and filmmaking technique.

But that can't be it, right? People dislike/hate it because it's "too serious" or "too dark", right?
>>
>>81048750
>everyone who recognizes my movie as the steaming pile of shit it is is just a marvel fanboy trying to start console wars
yeah whatever, i like both marvel and dc and i loved man of steel but batman vs superman was destined to be shit from the start
>>
So I've been thinking about the state of the DCEU now and I honestly believe that Suicide Squad will be the one that's received very well.

My question is, should DC focus more on some of their unknown properties? The general audience really seems to dig these type of teams/characters that are not as known to the public. I mean shit, we live in a reality where an Iron Man movie makes more money than a Spiderman one, Guardians is more succesful than a Superman movie, Deadpool is a huge success and Ant-Man makes 500+ million at the box office. Maybe people do want more "out there" properties in superhero movies and DC could take advantage of that. It's telling when there's more hype for a movie named Suicide Squad than for one named Batman v Superman (pretty sure the former beat the latter in trailer views).
>>
So are people panning it just because they want to? Also
>taking Rotten Tomatoes seriously
>>
>>81050110
>and more to do with storytelling principles and filmmaking technique.

Probably, sadly that's not the focus of most reviews. And how is fair to give a TV SHOW like the avengers a good review when on a tech level is terrible?

>My question is, should DC focus more on some of their unknown properties?

>sadly that's not the focus of most reviews

Of the reviews I've read, all of them call out the film for its self-serious tone, the haphazard narrative flow in the first half of the film, the crapheap of CGI that is Doomsday, and the lack of clear motivations for the actions of Batman and Lex Luthor. Of those issues, only one can be attributed to "DC trying something different than Marvel" (the tone).
>>
>>81050201
Neither have most of the people defending it.
>>
>>81050201
I don't think the people who are defending it's flaws have seen it either. All anybody is doing is quoting other people's reviews
>>
>>81050273

And at this point, who you quote depends on who you read/trust. But when so many different reviewers talk about the same things - or when reviewers mention factual details about what's in the film - you can assume some things are "facts" without having seen the film.

It doesn't matter if you did something different if it's shit. I could film myself drinking whiskey until I vomit and call it Iron Man 4 and it'd be "different", but that wouldn't change the fact that no one wants to see that.

And it's not as if there isn't room for a "serious" superhero film. Too bad "serious" tends to get equated with "grimdark" and we get shit like MoS and BvS as a result.

Bloody hell I'd forgotten about that. That's different though, I really don't think this is as bad as critics are making out. There's truly shitty movies that have over 37%, they'd have to try extra hard to make literally Batman vs Superman that shit. Heck, even the trailer material looked like enough to warrant over 37. The Room has over 37%
I guess I actually do sort of expect the "reviwers just didn't GET it"

Not even defence force, I don't care much for the movie

I'm guessing The Dark Knight Rises isn't much higher than BvS. Critics trashed that one.

Now, I'm not a big superhero guy but was this really surprising? I've seen Man of Steel a few years ago and it was easily one of the least entertaining movies I ever saw. Not one of the worst, objectively speaking, but utterly unengaging. It took itself painfully seriously without having anything substantial to say whatsoever.

Batman vs. Superman seems to be basically the same thing.

>boo hoo nasty critics can't take muh DEEP Superman v Batman

Critics didn't lambast it because it was different, they lambasted it because it was shit. You think critics can almost unanimously applaud stuff like Birdman and Ex Machina (or, fuck, Deadpool) for being fresh and daring, but are somehow unable to 'get' the meaningless drivel that was Batman v Superman?

It wasn't deep, it was pretentious. It wasn't mythic, it was bloated. It wasn't grand, it was cumbersome. Just like MoS, it tried to be deep in the shallowest way possible - by having lots of extremely blatant religious imagery everywhere that ultimately meat nothing and added nothing because there was no real fucking message, meaning, or character work going on behind them. All the fucking bloom and baroque bullshit in the world cannot fix a film that is poorly paced, artificially written (shit literally just happens for no reason, other than to provide another image ripped from classical culture. Every other scene breaks immersion), and features zero relatable or even properly developed characters.

Literally the only good things about this film were one fight scene and Affleck being a surprisingly good actor.
>>
>>81051100
It's surprising for the delusional company loyalists that forced themselves into believing MoS was good.
>>
I'll be honest.
If I was told to pick out some movies that are the pinnacle of comic book movies for the two studios.

It would still fucking be Batman Begins and Iron Man.

They both got the tone, visuals, writing, and everything right for how the two companies worked their stories, at least to me.

THOR 2 THE DARK WORLD

>>81050916
You literally don't understand what that 37% (I think it's at 32% now) means. It's not a 37% in quality, it just means that 37% of people liked it

>>
>>81050795
>>81050836

Exactly. Like it or not (and I have my problems with it), but Jessica Jones is an example of a very serious superhero adaptation, wasn't grimdark and grey and managed to garner critical acclaim.

Hell, Netflix Daredevil is serious adaptation that veers into some very dark territory at times, and was also critically acclaimed.

The issue here is not "this is not Quifest 6: Electric Quipaloo", but that Snyder is a hack (fact) who's never made a great movie (fact), and the cast and crew consistently raised the bar for expectations until they were so high you'd have needed some mememagic to reach them.

And then we apparently got Piss Luthor and this dissonance is why movie tanked critically.
>>
>>81051383
Suck shit through a catheter. Blade Runner was also outright lambasted upon release. And i don't give a shit what you personally prefer but even the thetrical cut is a goddamn gem.
Even gems like Queens Innuendo were torn apart at release.
Hindsight is the only true measure in which we judge media.
>>
>>81051551
Those are fine enough reviews.

The 70 range isn't meant to be 'great movie', it's meant to be 'okay movie, but not special'.

All those films are better than BvS, by the way, because they are not total clusterfucks crammed with way too many useless characters and plotlines and weighed down by literally meaningless iconography that does nothing but make the film look pretentious as fuck. Even fucking Thor 2 has better character work than BvS, as it has a few actual functional characters.

>>81052244
>Thor 2, Crystal Skull and Iron Man 2 are on that list. Blow me. Or take shotgun therapy. Whichever you prefer.

Yeah, they're still better films than BvS. They have working characters and plots that aren't totally fucking disparate and mostly useless. They are working stories, not giant advertisements. They're not very good stories, but they're better than this mess.

>One dimensional shitstains like Natalie Portman and Malekith sure are functional. And nothing the fuck else.

Agreed.

Loki, however, no matter how lel meme you regard him, is better characterized than the entirety of BvS' cast. Shit, THOR, boring fucking Thor, has more going on than most of BvS' cast.

I'm not saying these are good films, anon. I'm saying BvS was particularly bad.

>It's just weird what 4chan obsesses with films.
Really? You can't think of a single reason why the piss thing even for a minor thing it is, would be a thing 4chan would latch on to?

The fact the words "Lex Luthor" and "piss" are even being in the same sentence in this film supposed to be groundbreaking and change everything doesn't seem a little bit like something that might seem a little bit hysterical

It's like saying "I can't believe 4chan latched on to Pa Kent dying in a tornado"

Okay not the test screening prescreening but the "early release prescreening" stuff that cinemas do a day or two in advance. The ones the general public can actually get tickets to if they're determined enough to be "the first to see it".

Kylo has an actual motivation and a conflict.

Lexenberg has nothing. He's barely a character, and dear lord his dialogue is terrible. He's not just unbelievable as Lex Luthor, he's unbelievable as a human being.

>>81050210

AVClub has a good one:

>No, the showdown only works if you consider what these iconic characters, the shining stars of the DC Comics stable, really represent: They’re the perfect inverse of each other, a beaming beacon of mankind’s promise going toe-to-toe with the dank underbelly of its fears. And that’s where Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice first runs into trouble. When the Last Son Of Krypton seems every bit as anguished, as edgily dark, as the Dark Knight himself, what’s the point in bashing them together? Their conflict isn’t so much “day versus night,” to quote the bad guy, as “late evening versus slightly later evening.”

It also points out how alternately smug and dour Cavill seems as Superman

He just won't stop.

>While talking to HeyUGuys, Snyder explained his justification for Batman's use of deadly force, citing previous onscreen incarnations by directors Tim Burton and Chris Nolan as well as Frank Miller's classic "The Dark Knight Returns." Snyder says:

>I tried to do it by proxy. Shoot the car they’re in, the car blows up or the grenade would go off in the guy’s hand, or when he shoots the tank and the guy pretty much lights the tank [himself]. I perceive it as him not killing directly, but if the bad guy’s are associated with a thing that happens to blow up, he would say that that’s not really my problem.

>A little more like manslaughter than murder, although I would say that in the Frank Miller comic book that I reference, he kills all the time. There’s a scene from the graphic novel where he busts through a wall, takes the guy’s machine gun…I took that little vignette from a scene in The Dark Knight Returns, and at the end of that, he shoots the guy right between the eyes with the machine gun. One shot. Of course, I went to the gas tank, and all of the guys I work with were like, ‘You’ve gotta shoot him in the head’ because they’re all comic book dorks, and I was like, ‘I’m not gonna be the guy that does that!’

>Snyder previously defended his decision to show Superman taking a life in 2013's "Man of Steel," saying that the rule that Superman doesn't kill "doesn't exist in the comics. In the comics, he's actually killed Zod a couple of times. In the comics he's more of a practical hero. His aversion to killing won't stop him from doing it if it's the only solution."

It was self-doubt that he had, not that he had an addiction to running around randomly doing good deeds.

DAMAGE CONTROL TIME

>According to producer Deborah Snyder, "Justice League" will have a lighter tone than "Batman v Superman," and that has a lot to do with the characters.

>"'Justice League' is a little bit lighter, 'cause some of these characters -- you know, Flash tends to be a little bit more comedic, I'd say," she explained.

>"One of the things that lightens it is having Flash or having characters that are more optimistic. This movie is particular to characters who are having a crisis of conscience, which sort of draws them together," added director Zack Snyder.

>"You didn't have to have seen 'Man of Steel' to enjoy ['Batman v Superman'], 'cause it's a standalone thing. ['Justice League'] will have some references to 'Batman v Superman,' and that story will feel in certain kinds of ways connected to it," producer Charles Roven also shared.

Here's the funny thing, until Grant Gustan's optimistic portrayal of Barry Allen, I didn't think of the Flash as a particular comedic character. At least no more then any other Silver Age Character.

Some theaters will do screenings early for employees and a few people the employees wish to take. I've seen quite a few movie several days in adnavce recently.

Critically panned is not so much a problem as box office flop; Bay's Transformers got worse scores than this and they keep asking him to do the films because it sells well.

If this doesn't at least meet their box office expectations then they're definitely booting him. If it does do extraordinarily well they'll move with the plans and keep Snyder on board.

I bet you've never even seen JLU, and have no idea why Snyder brought up the Flash. Flash was the comic relief in the cartoons, while Superman, Batman, and John Stewart were stern and serious. Snyder has, which is probably how we ended up with the Batman-Wonder Woman ship.

Just because you've seen one of the Donner movies doesn't mean you "understand Superman."

Even though I prefer Marvel over DC (in general not films specifically) it pains me to see DC films being handled by Warner Bros who clearly keeps trying and failing to get it right. I mean how many failures is it going to take until they learn their lesson? I'm not saying copy Marvel's formula, as diversity in storytelling is encouraged but I mean pick the right directors or just give DC a film studio where they have more control like Marvel.

Speaking of Red Batman:
I just watched Daredevil (Director's Cut) and it's actually a pretty good movie.
Or, a pretty good cape movie if you want to qualify it.

I honestly don't get people's disdain for Ben Affleck as Daredevil when they'd most likely give anyone else a pass for giving the same performance he did.

Not to mention that he gives a pretty similar performance to what Charlie Cox was dishing out during both seasons of Daredevil. Which is to say they both give a good performance relative to the script and format they perform in.

The best part of the Daredevil movie is that it showed how Matt's powers work and actually bothers to really tie how it works into the story. Plus, the DD costume actually looks like a """realistic""" update of his comic book costume.

Overall, the Director's Cut of Daredevil is a pretty good movie that works as a nice enough one-shot.

I haven't seen the original version, but considering all the gnashing of teeth over it, it's a shame that they (whoever decided cuts were necessary) didn't release the DC as the theatrical version and, instead, decided to cut out 30+ minutes of content.
Put your best foot forward and all that.

>"In the words of The Joker in a far better Batman movie: "Why so serious?""
>"a quasi-epic without a thimbleful of wit"
>"A joyless slog."

and it goes on

they all don't like it because it isn't "fun"
>>
>>81061639
Fun does not mean "a joke a minute". When people called TDK a " thrill ride", they're not saying it's at the same level as a Schwarzenegger movie.

Fun means "is the movie enjoyable within the merits it's set for itself and did I come out of the movie liking it or at least a large majority of it" and what I'm hearing, that isn't the case
>>
>>81061639
No, you fucking idiot. It's because Zack Snyder is a giant idiot who thinks he's much smarter than everyone else, so he makes meaningless, boring shit that he thinks is SUPER DEEP but is just superficial crap. How does someone make basically a panel-for-panel adaptation of Watchmen but manage to miss the point entirely? Ask Zack Snyder.
>>

Wasn't he saying literally just a couple days ago that his Justice League was too serious for an upbeat Flash? Like, right before the reviews started coming in?

>>
>>81060205
I don't think people really had a problem with his performance, DD wasn't very loved because of it's simplistic plot and characters + the emo aesthetics/soundtrack that added a new layer of silly

Consider that basically what the original cut didn't have was Matt investigating for that black guy's case, so it had less thriller elements and the character was stripped of fairly interesting scenes like that of the blind driving

Not him but it goes against the Indiana Jones mythos. Games, movies and comics all had him dealing with mystical and supernatural shit. Stuff that dealt with Earth and it's history and myths.

That is the problem. See, if you fuck up a fluffy, unambitious movie, nobody cares, people just forget about it - see Thor 2. But if you make a big show of being something more, you HAVE to be something more, or people will fucking eat you alive. And BvS made a big hulabaloo about daring to do something "more" and in the end it amounted to shit. And that flies a lot less.

>Deadpool dared to be something else. And actually succeeded at it
Superhero parody movies had existed way before Deadpool or even pic related. DP was successful because he's already a popular character. The movie taking potshots at superhero conventions wasn't particularly clever and given how Marvel and DC have outright refuse to make R-rated superhero flicks it won't have much of an impact.

Honestly with Crystal Skull the only reason it's HATED the way it is seems to be the aliens, if it had been literally ANYTHING ELSE at the end I think it'd just be considered "fine but not great but still pretty fun Indiana Jones movie"

There's also LeBeef and the fridge. Though I'll say his character looks much better now because of Ford's abortion of a son in TFA.

He wasn't a parody nor was his movie. He was a subversion of the genre. Theres a difference.
>>
>>81067631
Deadpool's whole character is a parody of of 80's edgy comic book heroes like Lobo. Considering all the rifts it made on X-men and superhero movies
>subversion of the genre
It didn't really do anything different in fact it was incredibly cookie cutter and as others pointed out far too happy.

there are so many levels of JUST in this that I'm struggling to pick them all apart

I'm not saying that I want a Justice League film to be entirely dark, I just mean that this whole situation where they've made a film so dark that a Darkseid film will be less dark. That, or they're blatantly lying.

I don't feel any need to, anymore. Three years of hype was ended by about an hour's worth of disappointment, and now I'm spending my time hoping Suicide Squad, Rebirth, and Captain America: Civil War hit all the right notes instead.

>>81067610

I actually liked Kylo Ren though.

And here's the kicker. Overall I disliked TFA pretty strongly, Kylo and to an extent Finn were the ONLY characters who made any impression on me.
>>
>>81056920
The actors at least should hopefully get through it mostly unscathed, most if not all the reviews I've seen have been critical of the storytelling/directing not the acting itself, and of course everyone is loving Batfleck even those that were iffy when he was first cast.
>>
I got one complain, it's TOO fucking long, the buildup and dream sequences were not really THAT entertaining and the Flash cameo was "MARTY THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH YER KIDS!"

How can you ruin such a hyped premise so hard? The movie's not even officially released in the US yet and it's panned harder than even Man of Murder. MAN OF MURDER. Even Green Lantern is critically better a movie.

MCU is practically laughing their asses off from the bleachers, and I wholeheartedly agree too.

How can one fuck over the DCU this hard?
>>
>>81070353

My bad about the Green Lantern bit, although given how it's keep dropping I might as well be predicting the future.

The rest of my point still stands.

FTFY.
No matter how much Snyder manages to suck his own cock, there has never been anything substantial or "deep" in literally any of his movies.
>>
>>81070461
I thought JL 2 was the other half of his script, like Kill Bill.
>>
>>81056902
Well it's funny because there is a deleted scene where Hulk attempts to commit suicide in Antarctica or something, and Hulk alter ego stops him. Breaks the ice, and you see Cap's frozen body emerging from the avalanche.

>>81049363
Just like how Watchman will be a cult film right?

Lobo was also a parody. IN fact he was a parody of 80's wolverine.

Yeah if you see one butt fuck scene, you've seen them all.

There's no way it can go below 30%. If it hits 29 or lower then there will be a witch hunt for Snyder, followed by mass suicide.

If Suicide Squad gets panned AS WELL then they've just fucked the DCEU, I don't know if they'll be able to keep going after that.
>>
>>81073512
Wonder Woman is too far along to cancel. At worst they'll slash the effects budget and dump it out when no one cares.

Batfleck will probably get a solo movie, mainly because they'd have made a Batman movie anyways since they always make Batman movies.

Anything beyond that is in trouble if these flop.
>>
>>81073726
Yeah, should have been more specific, if Suicide Squad gets panned as well, the execs might just demand them to reboot, cancelling any movies that are planned but not in production. So yeah, Wonder Woman and whatever other film is in production at the time (most likely batsolo film) can come out but that would be it.
>>
>>81048750
Bullfuck. Watchmen has gotten great reviews, and it actually WAS something more in it. Recently, Winter Soldier used superheroes as a commentary about fascism and military industrial complex.

What are the any actual messages that BvS carries? Any actual deep themes? Lessons? Anything?

It's stupid kind of capeshit PRETENDING to be deep. It's marvel with a dark paintjob.

kek

BvS definitely has a theme about the extent to which you can believe in a pure good in a material sense. It's not very well put across but it certainly put across at least as well as Winter Soldier's "commentary" on fascism and the MIC.

BvS' problems are much more about construction and character work than themes or meaning.
>>

>Winter Soldier used superheroes as a commentary about...
Anon, I hope you're not trying to imply that Winter Soldier is 'deep' or that its 'commentary' stands out from, well, any other superhero movie, really.

No, just that it was more than BvS.

>>81075121
Might be amusing for a few, but would be leave an incredibly bitter taste in people's throats, generally movies go for a satisfactory ending even if they're based on a book or something, or expect a sequel to address it.
Much as the hype was real when it came out and was justified into an immediate sequel being scheduled, when they made it it was probably being cautious of being a one time thing.
>>
>>81056005
I'm getting a sadistic pleasure out of watching Snyder squirm over and over and over

Now I wonder if those articles about Ben trying to rewrite shit in costume were actually him trying to tell Snyder to stop fucking things up.
>>
>>81075747
Perhaps, dude seems to be the only one that did not shock that BvS turn out to be shit. Well, he's the director himself afterall and miles better than Hack Snyder so of course he knows, I guess.
>>
>>81063075
He's not the reason it was bomb though.
>>
>>81055217
WB better push JL back and check the box office first then consider their position again, BvS is bad news and you can not build a cinematic universe around it.
