>>
>>84792118

I disagree completely, anon. I see more good in them than bad. The bad parts for me are all on the technical side, like acting and things such as that. Not in their portrayal of the universe or the characters in it. I actually think that a lot of the ideas in these movies are really, really good.

That's my opinion, sorry if you disagree.

If you want to have your own made opinion on whether Zack is shit or not, you should watch the movies he's had a hand in. Personally none of the movies for DC he's had a major part in feel terribly well made. Sometimes they feel good, then other times they act pretentious and divert from source material.

I don't really like the way he's handled it so far, but you should watch the movies to come to your own conclusions.

>>84792663
Because >>84792118 stated the truth? BvS is awful and the UC is just more of the same shit. The films are made by someone who thinks that Batman getting raped in prison would be dark because TDK trilogy isn't dark at all and that Batman's no-kill rule came from the 89 movie.
>>
>>84793042
Well prison rape is pretty dark anon.

>>84793042
He's right you know, TDK trilogy isn't dark.
>>
>>84793161
and why is that?
>>
>>84793042

Why people like to take Scott Snyder stupid statements out of context? Just to make him look stupider and thus justify your hate?

Snyder just said that the TDK trilogy wasn't dark or realistic, like most people say it is, because if it was Bruce would end up raped in that Chinese prison in BB.

It's a stupid statement but he has a point. The TDK trilogy isn't dark nor realistic. Far from it.
>>
>>84793228
Because Bruce was a ninja trained hero who ultimately saved Gotham and lived happily ever after.
>>
>>84793240
It's not taken out of context, fuck you. Also you have no reply for him thinking that Batman's no-kill rule comes from the '89 movie.
>>
>>84793386

I have no reply for that because i've not seen that statement. Why would i speak about things i have no knowledge?
>>
>>84793443
I tried to do it in a technical way. There’s a great YouTube video that shows all the kills in the Christopher Nolan movies even though we would perceive them as movies where he doesn’t kill anyone. I think there’s 42 potential kills that Batman does! Also, it goes back and includes even the Tim Burton Batman movies where this reputation as a guy that doesn’t kill comes from.

So, 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!’

>>
>>84793308
Sandman has an optimistic ending and a hugely powerful higher-than-a-god main character, is it not dark?

The Dark Knight Returns stars a senior citizen kicking the crap out of people much younger and stronger than he is, and it has an optimistic ending, is it not dark?

Flex Mentallo has a hugely optimistic ending and a main character so idealized that he (in theory) provides the mold for every superhero ever, is it not dark?

Astro City: The Dark Age stars two highly trained characters that started from nothing and had a happy ending, is it not dark?
>>
>>84793563

Cavill's Superman sees everything as a chore.
And not just being Superman and saving people.
He seems to hate being Clark Kent too. He hates being a reporter, his relationship with Lois seems like it's deflating, he keeps seeing Kevin Costner's ghost, who keeps asking him why he bothers even getting up in the morning.

Superman needs super-antidepressants.

>>84793563
It doesn't say thats where the no kill started, it says thats where he got the reputation for not killing. Which is true, because they make such a big deal about it when it comes to Penguin/Joker and all them, and was one of the most viewed superhero movies by normies.

Learn reading comprehension. He even talks about how he tried to tone down the violence from DKR and yet people still complained.

well sure, but the entire point of Flex was that he was a bright, light, optimistic presence in an otherwise dark world. It wasn't really a dark story anon, the darkest thing that happens is a guy thinks about suicide.

He killed zero people. The most egregious instance of Snyder's (and your) misreading of the comic is claiming Batman shot a dude in the head with an M60. There is no bullet wound anywhere on the dude.

Look right there. The thug is lying dead, with a giant blood splat on the wall behind him. Just because the wound itself is off panel doesn't mean its not there. Stop living in so much denial.

It's not even out of context. The whole point of arguing your case is to cite proof that the other side is incompetent and fucking stupid, which, surprise, Zack Snyder is stupid.

If you're going to use rape for shock value in a fucking Batman movie, you are a hack.
>>
>>84799045
>>84799186
Ok you two, Miller apparently once stated in an interview that he drew the panel badly and he never intended for it to seem like batman shot her, just knocked away the gun. Thing is the panel is badly drawn (Which it is as it doesnt convey itself properly, drawng is still good) that it still seems like batman killed her.

Also you know that mutant was a chick right?
>>
>>84802614
i should also mention im a fan of snyder and especially his DC films, but even people i enjoy the work of can be wrong sometimes, and he was very wrong when he spoke about the n kill rule.
>>
>>84802614
but there are also context clues later in the issue that tell the reader the mutant was not killed regardless of unintentional ambiguity, as seen in >>84799364, so the argument that he killed someone based on a badly drawn panel is still based on a misreading of the comic or he didn't read the comic at all and just saw that sequence and was like, "damn that's cool" because the fact that he thinks Batman kills at all in DKR flies in the face of any sort of even surface level reading of the text

and no I did not

bad writing, a script written by two different writers trying to write two radically different movies, one of whom couldn't adapt his writing style to match the direction or vice versa, actors who weren't allowed to act in a manner befitting the characters despite clearly being able to, poor editing, and a director who let his obsession with producing cool moments get in the way of directing a coherent film

>>
>>84801767

Yes, in a moment of crisis where he's doubting the positive aspect of his impact on the world because of the media unrelenting attack.

Something that happens in almost every movie.
>>
>>84791682
How quickly we forget. People have already forgotten that everyone was pretty skeptical of the the first and second trailers of BvS.
>>
>>84810190
And those people were vindicated. They were right to be skeptical
>>
>>84796852

That's false.

He liked saving people. He saved people even when he wasn't Superman. He only started to doubt his actions when the media and the congress started to paint a bad image of him after the African massacre and capital bombing. Because he felt guilty about being responsible for them.

He also liked being Clark Kent. He just felt frustrated that nobody was reporting on Batman despite Batman being actually bad. Everybody was intent on miking the Superman story. That made him feel frustrated and angry.

His relationship with Lois was also fine. It's what gave him strength. It was Lois that worried that perhaps she was holding him back of doing his Supermanning, because he constantly worried about her, which she was right because in the end she was the one that helped bring Superman down due to their connection. But that was fine because one of the points of the movie is that you can't control everything. Bad stuffs will happen, but will can't dwell on them or give up. You got to keep going forward and keep doing good. Just find someone that will help you go through the rough times.

But whatever, BvS is terrible and Superman is pure murderman.

Funny thing about TDKR, a comic in which Batman doesn't kill anyone, it's in the same continuity as All Star Batman and Robin, the boy wonder, in which Batman kills 10-20 people. He cleaves a cop car in two, with at least one cop inside it, smashes through a bunch of motorcyles and cop cars, many of which crash and explode. Later he sets fire to a bunch of thugs with thermite and bleach, then continues to beat them up whilst they burn.

People this days refuse to accept Batman's original manslaughtering some times leading to death, claming that it doesn't fit character at all (when they ok with Captain America doing the same in movies). Hopefully Frank Miller was born before 2000 and Winnick's (animated adaptation kek) Under the Red Hood. They also claiming that Batman will never take another's live willingly no matter what, completely ignoring Death in the Family (when Superman stopped him from killing Joker), Killing Joke, Europa, End Game, DKR (no, faggots, Joker didn't suiceded himself, after Batman breaks his neck his bubble color changes from white to grey, also when he destroyed Mutant leader "Something tells me stop with his leg, I don't listen to it".

Yeah, take this issue, #402 from the 80's. The writers and editors had no problem showing that Batman had killed before. Just like Batman says, he doesn't do outright murder, but in self defense? He's had to a few times.

It wasn't controversial back then, not for writers and not for the readers. I think the "Batman has never, ever killed" got significantly bigger after BTAS.

>when they ok with Captain America doing the same in movies
Batman has had numerous good stories in which having a no-kill rule was a major focus. Captain America hasn't.

You can take the argument further and say that a Batman who has an irrational phobia of killing as a result of witnessing his parents' murder makes for a more complex character, and juxtaposes well with the Joker's complete disregard for human life.

then there's the argument that Batman is more sympathetic and compelling when he is sincerely invested in the rehabilitation of his rogues, and more broadly about the kind of message he sends as an active figure of gotham's mythology.

Even if they weren't very good, Marvel had a very long history of bending over backwards and maintaining that Cap never killed anybody, especially during world war two until Ed Brubaker came along and said it was dumb as fuck, had Steve kill again in the war and turned Bucky into an assassin.
>>
>>84816444
And?

That's not what he is saying you dmbass, no wonder you guys don't like MoS or BvS, you cant understand a simple comic.

I grew up reading european comics and noir stuff, jumping to murrikan capeshit has that effect on people. Zach was a Heavy Metal guy, capeshit looks flat when you are used to other kinds of comics.

9/11 fucked up cap's character really hard. The whole "tree or truth" that some people love or his position in the civil war movie are actually extremely fascist.
>>
>>84791682
Shit quips aside, the thing that bothers me the most is how casual they're being about an impending doom that's right on the horizon. It's weird, since you know that Batman pretty much hangs out in his Batsuit all the time, and why is he so god damn casual about his secret identity? Why would you tell a random stranger who you are? What if Barry would've said no? That's just sloppy, man, fuck this gay movie.

Still gonna watch it though, Ezra Miller is pretty cute, not gonna lie

There are stories that kind of require bats not killing, and with the dead Robin suit they clearly were thinking about the most obvious, Under the Red Hood. The last Nolan movie teased a red helmeted biker as i recall.

It wasn't a major focus, but Captain America once beat the shit out of the Punisher in Civil War for killing some villains that wanted to join Cap's group.

>>
>>84816606
I only watch Flash and Barry goes full retard with the number of people he tells. But we get ta much better balance and he they establish that he tries to keep his heroics separate by doing things like vibrating his vocal cords.

Whereas with Snyder, people right now are assuming the Clark Kent identity is dead. And he just time skips over the whole "wars glasses so he can blend in with people" thing' taking it completely for granted. Then anyone that's important to the narrative figures out both Superman and Batman's secret identities either off camera before the story starts or within 20 minutes. So yes, Snyder comes off as not giving a shit about that genre convention, and given that track record I wouldn't be too surprised if he tried to have Bruce be Batman full time; especially since that'd be more in character for Bruce than just about any other character

Wow, Ezra Miller looks like a normal person and fucking cute as fuck.

That was not public knowledge.

The ONLY non-villian Character with lines in the ENTIRE series that doesnt know Barry's identity is the gay cop.

And that people is retarded, as long as there's a Lois there will be a Clark.
>>
>>84816618
Who knows about that?

>>84816641
There is. That's the point, Superman changed Bruce so much that gave him his trus0t in humanity and people back.
>>
>>84816363
Not only that. In BTAS no one actually kills anyone, or if they do this happens of screen. I am very appreciative and always be attached to Timmverse, but casual scum should know that this is universe that lasts forever, it never had actual beginning or end (yeah you have Mask if Phantasm and Beyond but it's not the same thing), but movies (and comic books, but who da hell reading them imirite guys?) are fucking different, and character must evolve, as well as their background.

Man of Steel is actually very true to the character as depicted in The Man of Steel and Birthright, or basically how he's been since Crisis.

/tv/fags tend to just read All-Star Superman and think that's what Superman is all about, which is like watching Brave and the Bold and thinking that's what Batman is all about.

The problem with MoS is solely that they failed to create a movie that resonated with people. The concepts and characterizations are fine.
>>
>>84816669
Who the fuck cares?
See in future Superbro : The Man of Tomorrow
>>
>>84816913
I like the DCAU too. But it definitely changed the comics too. I mean, Batman killing was never something that occured often outside of the Golden Age, but it still happened sometimes.

Now we have Batman dealing out huge amounts of punishment to thugs and villains, ramming cars with the batmobile and what not, and suppsedly never killing anyone.

I think boxoffice resonated just fine. First ZackAttack and over 650ml evergreen, and before you say "most well-known superhero" Superman Returns only did little over 300ml.

It's just a bunch of text on an image. You could do this shit in paint. It's not like one of those overly insane images from /v/ with wojack and pepe and shit everwhere representing Nintendo and Sony.
>>
>>84817097
That's because in comics Batman is in his young age, or in his peak, when in BvS it's 20 years vet, slowly becoming villain (not because he is brutal, but because he almost killed Superman for mainly forced reason). Casuals also forgets that.
>>
>>84817114
MoS had huge hype after DK and the whole capeshit industry. Half of profit were made at first weekend. People were waitin for another awesome movie following the traliers. And they had got Thor-tier movie with Bible references instead
>>
>>84817114
>this image again
We've been over this anon. More light hearted movies can have more out of character jokes. If a movie is taking itself super seriously, it's not going to read the same and there's no one to blame but the person who made the tone of the movie the way it was.
>>
>>84793240

What about when he said the only reason they killed Superman in MoS was that they needed batman to be the guy to recruit the Justice League?

What about when he literally said he couldn't have the characters talk to each other in costume?
>>
>>84799780
learn how to read you moron.

>>84810408
Oh know the media is being too tough on superman? Such a bummer, that's way more troublesome then the hundreds of people that died around him.

And What about all the other scenes of him saving people with at best boredom or and at worst apparent disgust.

There is never a single moment where Superman is proud of saving anyone.

They made an unlikable superman, that's the main complaint.

When you see Henry doin some interviews he is always smiling and having fun. He is also pretty joyful in Agents of U.N.C.L.E.

>>
>>84818400
I still don't get why him smiling is a big deal, the movie choose to focus on a dark part of his life and the struggle he is having. Saying you want to see him save cats is not a valid criticism. This superman SAVES cats, it's just that this story isnt about that.
>>
Man of Steel and Batman v Superman (the Ultimate Cut) were both good movies

Both normies and mainstream movie critics have a preconceived notion of what superhero movies should be, and let that cloud their judgement, instead of trying to evaluate the movies on purely cinematic terms
>>
>>84818529
>instead of trying to evaluate the movies on purely cinematic terms
Yes, because when I watch a capeshit film, I totally expect Days of Heaven and Eraserhead.
>>
>>84818529
Normies are not the problem, casuals are, casual fans think the character should act only in one way, like those fags that post that shitty Hitman page or Johns "i hear families kissing and saying i love you" crap.

>>84818560

Yeah, right.
>>84818492
But no one wants to see edgygrimdark Supes. We have Batman already. Also, when dark moments happens in bright town like Metropolos and life of Superman, it much stronger and better. Also, when Supes happy and kind, moments when he is in sadness or anger is always heart-breaking

Well, nobody expects high art. That doesn't mean you shouldn't try. If you do try and it goes wrong you can end up with something like Ang Lee's Hulk, but it doesn't mean nobody can succeed at it.

I don't think that's what Snyder was aiming for either, for the record, I think he was just trying to make action movies that are a little more visually and tonally ambitious than the recent capeshit environment has been.

Can't you read? Are you retarded or smth? Snyder crying everywhere that he make his universe based on comics etc. That he respect every aspect of characters and make them like in comics books. And he trulty took characters, but from wrong books, you dumbfuck. He just mixed three incompatible and, the most important, questinable stories of Supes in one meh movie. I know that he didn't want to make some "ordinary boring story" like in main universe, so why not just take some good alternative instead of mix some doubtful ones?
>>
>>84819258
>"i was used to european comics, superhero comics were not attractive to me until i read watchmen"

Snyder cites Frazetta and Heavy Metal Magazine.

Heavy Metal isn't European. Heck, it as created by one of the guys behind the ninja turtles. Frank Frezetta wasn't a european artist either. Born in New York, died in Florida.

Are you trying to change the continent because of the concept that European comics have more depth and you want to attribute that depth to Snyder?

No it isn't.
In fact I still remember that thread where someone storytimed Birthright and showed page by page why that worked but Man of Steel didn't and you Snyderfags threw a tantrum and started yelling about autism and how it was actually based on Miracleman and nobody understood it.
