I'm serious, fun is just hack bullshit at this point. Marvel has figured out that all you need to do is have the characters act all pally and crack shitty jokes and people will praise it for being fun. Even Film Crit Hulk who is a huge dick rider for the MCU had to admit that Civil War threw out any real chance at drama for the sake of giving the audience a comfortingly fun experience.

It's not the actor, it's just instead of it looking like his body is ''integrated'' with robot parts, it looks like they are glued on top of his skin, and bad CGI, which is something that all superhero movies suffer from for some reason.

Whats baffling is that Cyborg's costume is completely doable with practical effects. Naturally you can add cgi layers over it later in post, but whats the fucking point here?

>>
>>89797543
For personally, is that I grew up with Cyborg as part of the Titans
>>
In the “New 52” retconning of the DC Universe, Cyborg is a founding member of the Justice League, the token minority replacing the former (imaginary) token minority, J’Onn J’Onzz, the Martian Manhunter, and sitting right alongside the token woman, Wonder Woman. This is no accident. For many white people, diversity and tokenism mean precisely the same thing, but beyond that, they are also looking for a particular brand of marginalized person to include; someone who will not disturb the existing state of affairs, who will operate, essentially, as a white, heterosexual, gender-conforming, middle-class man, but in slightly different drag. In his previous incarnation, it was unclear whether Cyborg was a fully functional, sexual being. In the New 52, it’s clear that Cyborg has no genitals. The accident that turned him into a cyborg has taken every bit of his flesh other than his torso, arms, neck, and head. Thus, it’s safe for him to be around Wonder Woman as he serves no sexual threat and no competition for Superman. (I should note that, at the same time, Wonder Woman loses her personhood to become the prize. Please watch the animated film Justice League: War if you don’t believe me. You’ll see the male members of the team, except Cyborg of course, each attempt to call “dibs” on her—including the pubescent Billy Batson/Shazam.) This, to me, is the comic book version of the historical castrations that white supremacists often enacted against black men, of whose sexuality (which they exaggerated and demonized) they were enormously envious and frightened of. Cities in this country were bombed to oblivion on the word of lying white women falsely accusing black men of rape.

TT's Cyborg honestly had one of the strongest designs for the character. The blue circuit boards just look more appealing than the usual silver plates with red lighting.

>>89802955
It was originally going to be part of Thor (death of the old gods, coming of the New Gods) but when he left Marvel, he took the idea to DC instead.

I don't think it there was any ever doubt about if it would be part of the universe, especially since he took over Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen and that's where Darkseid débuted.

Besides, where in the 70s could he have got as much exposure and money other than at Marvel or DC? They'd be calling the shots regardless of what he wanted to do and that's exactly what they did.

>Nolan bats are the only films to pull off a different tone without complaints
You know, except for the Burton Bat films. And that's because Batman is broad enough to lend itself to a wide variety of interpretations. Few other superheroes can make that claim.

Most superheroes are by design at least a little bit ridiculous, so you're going to need some levity to balance that out. Even the Nolan and Burton films aren't entirely joyless.

And /co/ isn't giving the MCU nearly enough credit. You let its failures (AoU, Thor: The Dark World) speak louder than its bonefide successes (Iron Man, GoTG, the Captain America trilogy, Doctor Strange).

The Marvel movies suck shit though. Have you heard how they make them?

>http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2016/05/24/civil-war-spider-man-2-and-the-dangers-of-assumed-empathy

>Marvel has figured this weird way of making serviceable movies by taking the lessons of that last act and working backward to emulate it at all times, but not doing the real work that gets you there. Meaning it has become the studio's weird quest to remove the 'bad scenes" aka the scenes audiences don't "Like" and as such it has indoctrinated one of the weirdest working modus operandis hulk can think of. This is the genuine process btw: they put together inoffensive character-centric scripts where no one sees the huge story problems on the page (people are bad at reading scripts across the board). They hire great actors. They put action scenes into second unit hands. They shoot the sucker then get into the edit. And because people are better with seeing movies then they are at reading scripts, they then realize the story doesn't work. So they re-shoot half the movie (this is all planned beforehand) and include a lot of the stuff they thought they needed in the first place to make it work. They then tailor the final product to be as round and safe as possible. The movie is then greeted with either with a shrug or a hearty laugh and a slow slide into forgetting.

At least their casts have chemistry, and it's damn good chemistry.

Drama can be an issue sometimes, that I will give you, but spectacle? Almost every Marvel movie has damn fine spectacle, at least the good ones. The acid trip interdimensional shit in Doctor Strange, the airport battle in Civil War, the battle of Sokovia in AoU, the battle on Nova Prime in GoTG, the helicarrier battle in Winter Soldier, the Battle of New York of the first Avengers movie and just about every waking minute of Captain America was fucking gorgeous.

>>89797467
This interview basically admits that they are already considering WW a wash, they aren't even attempting or hoping WW will be good.

Also I am still saddened by Cyborg's look in the movie, he is just a metallic blurr on the screen like if they took a transformer and crushed it down to Ultron's size and then spray painted the entire thing the same textured silver...

The trippy part of Doctor Strange was 2 minutes long, the rest was just glowing circles and folding buildings. Could they not have done anything else with magic? The airport battle in civil was was shit, they're all pulling their punches and just having little slapfights two or three at a time. Sokovia I don't even remember, except for a bunch of helicarriers showing up to rescue literally everyone, because critics were asspained about people dying in Man of Steel. What even happened on Nova Prime? A ship flew into a big net and then they won by holding onto a rock for a bit. Winter Soldier was just shakycam bullshit, which was even worse in Civil War btw. The Avengers battle of NY is pitifully setbound, all of the non flying around stuff is just them standing in the middle of the same street.

They didn't save LITERALLY EVERYONE, they saved as many as they could. Of course people died, fucking Quicksilver died even.

>What is that supposed to mean?
The jokes aren't funny, but they still expect you to laugh.
>And still more unique than anything Zack Snyder has ever touched.
Seriously? I won't try to convince you it was good but Sucker Punch had more imagination in its opening sequence than Doctor Strange had in its whole runtime.
>No they aren't.
Yeah they were, the only time someone gets hurt is by accident, and he's basically fine by the end of the film because there's NO STAKES.
>They didn't save LITERALLY EVERYONE, they saved as many as they could. Of course people died, fucking Quicksilver died even.
They never suggested anyone died in the actual movie they just said they did in Civil War for plot reasons, and no one cares about Quickslav. Also the deathcounts in Civil War are such bullshit. Less than 200 people died in the battle of NY? Fuck off.
>I dunno, it was kinda neat for superheroes to save lives for a change.
It's just pandering, Superman saved the whole world but the film was honest about the human cost to superhuman battles, which marvel will never be. LESS THAN 200 DEAD, fuck off.
>Well yeah, if you wanna put it that way because you have an axe to grind.

Nothing happens in it, it has literally no effect on the rest of the movie. There's no stakes, they don't even want to hurt each other. Also at the airport in broad daylight is the most boring looking place to have the fight. It was all shot on greenscreen in Atlanta anyway so why not pick an actually cool backdrop?
>>
>>89805064
>Sucker Punch had more imagination in its opening sequence than Doctor Strange had in its whole runtime
Every single visual in Sucker Punch was ripped directly from something else, that was the whole point even.

This is a superhero movie, these guys take punches like your mother takes dick, it's called a convention of the genre.

>and he's basically fine by the end of the film because there's NO STAKES
Yes there are, but it's not a story about Rhodey's legs.

>They never suggested anyone died in the actual movie
Yeah, because people can figure that part out, you fucking moron.

>and no one cares about Quickslav
No, YOU didn't care about him.

>Less than 200 people died in the battle of NY? Fuck off.
Are you suggesting the movie lied about the exact number? Why? It'd be entirely inconsequential if it was 200 or 500 or 1000, the point remains the same in the context of the narrative.

We literally want the original Jaime series back. New 52 didn't deliver and neither does this one.

Ripped directly from what? What's the classic steampunk WWI movie it was ripping off? It mixed and matched genres, that's not the same as stealing.
>This is a superhero movie, these guys take punches like your mother takes dick, it's called a convention of the genre.
That's bullshit, superheroes can get hurt, and often do, but this movie is too scared to risk alienating anyone so there's no real animosity or violence behind the battle.
>Yes there are, but it's not a story about Rhodey's legs.
No, it's a story about the friendship between Tony and Steve which is broken, Except Steve write him a soppy love letter to say "I'll be there for you Tony" because the writers are to lame to let any kind of negative feeling linger.
>Yeah, because people can figure that part out, you fucking moron.
Oh yeah they specifically say they're gonna save everyone then at the end they're all happy so it should be clear they actually failed.
>No, YOU didn't care about him.
He sucked.
>Are you suggesting the movie lied about the exact number? Why? It'd be entirely inconsequential if it was 200 or 500 or 1000, the point remains the same in the context of the narrative.

Nah, for what I have read pretty sure everyone of Zack's ideas damaged the movie.

It's basically "Hey Affleck and Goyer I want to do this shit!" And they say "No it is a bad idea" them Snyder decides to keep repeating "pleeease!" Until he gets a "Ah ok, do the shit".

If he knew what would happen because of the knowledge that he got, why he just stood there in front of a mindless monster,whose first act was trying to kill him?

Also, from the two times he saves Lois, it's pretty much apparent that he knows what's happening to her wherever she's on the planet. And yet he fucking lets Jimmy die just so he could show up at the last possible moment to save Lois.

Don't waste your time. It wasn't even so bad it was good. There wasn't much to laugh at and the parts that were didn't justify sitting through the rest of the movie.

Superman is supposed to be optimistic in tone, not somber and gritty and unsure of himself. It ruins the whole contrast that Superman and Batman had against each other and it drags the DCEU as a whole into a rut because there's nobody there for the audience to feel sympathetic for.

There's a difference between having doubts and going "woe is me" to the point where you're practically ineffectual.

Also, Superman doubts himself because he either can't save everyone or his powers end up hurting someone that he cares about, not just because his shitty father taught him to let children die if it comes down to a choice between anonymity and heroism.

>>89811846
>ut, not just because his shitty father taught him to let children die if it comes down to a choice between anonymity and heroism.

But that doesnt happen in the movie. He is told his actions will change the world and that he needs to be ready for that (kids) and that even trying to do good can have negative consequences that he will have to learn to live with (horses). But you are autistic. You don't want to understand or make any effort watching cape movies you want everything to be told directly to you.

That's because the film is poorly written and sets up shit that doesn't matter in the end. Like the whole scene where Pa Kent tells Kent to let children die if it comes down to keeping his identity would've worked if it happened before we see him saving those people on the oil tanker because then it could've actually set up a conflict within the movie.

But of course, Snyder's at the helm so MORE EXPLOSIONS, MORE DESTRUCTION PORN, FUCK SUPERHEROES WHO ACTUALLY SAVE PEOPLE, WE DCEU FAGGOTS!
>>
>>89812031
>FUCK SUPERHEROES WHO ACTUALLY SAVE PEOPLE, WE DCEU
Are you saying Superman never saved anyone in these movies?
>>
>>89812062
In the DCEU, the amount of people saved is always lower than the amount of people murdered by the heroes.

Even when he does save people, the movie either glosses over it or frames it as if it's some sort of sad moment like somebody died or something rather than a triumphant event that shows how Superman has learned from Zod.

I've been reading comics basically since I could read and I love BvS.


Get over yourself, there is no one true canon, literally the whole point of everything Morrison and Moore have made is that its ALL canon and there are room for all kinds of stories.


Who gives a shit if Jimmy is dead, can you even tell me one story Jimmy was instrumental for? For the 4th world stuff that happened in Jimmy's book (which I have sitting right here on my shelf), Jimmy had absolutely no hand in the 4th world shit, it happens despite him, not because of him. Kirby literally just dumped his 4th world heacanon in there because no one else was using the Superman's Pal title.
If Superman not making jokes and characters taking matters seriously triggers you so hard, you have not read the vast majority of post-crisis Superman stories.
Also, this Luthor was largely based on his Golden/Silver Age incarnations (which are heavily echoed in Birthright). Stop being so pleb.

Some could argue that an adaptation should, well, adapt, otherwise it's pointless, but sure, there can be alternative stories. I'm one of those comics fans against costant recycles of old stories for the sake of forcing a canon that often can't stand together myself.
Problem is Snyder and everyone around him are tools that couldn't write anything decent for their life, "canon" or not

Byrne makes Superman kill Zod? It comes off naturally and makes sense within it's context and how the characters react to the situation

Snyder makes Superman kill Zod? It's literally a last minute rewrite made purposefully because Snyder thought it would be cool to do something unexpected and in fact it feels forced in a script that doesn't call for it (there's no setup about Supes' morals on killing, so Zod's death isn't a payoff to anything, Supes just kills Zod, because; compare to Batman Begins where Bruce deals with the idea of killing during the whole movie) and the characters barely react to it at all (brushing an enormous tragedy off with a quick montage of the characters being happy is hack directing, they did the same shit with Amazing Spiderman 2. "Oh well if we show a two minute montage of Peter grieving then we can safely bring him back to his happy self"; compare to Spiderman 1 and 3 literally ending in a cemetery)

I used the example of Byrne because while you're arguing that these movies are good because they're different, many MANY fanboys instead argue these movies are good because they're just like teh comics but people are too stupid to notice


But i'm sure you'll just say "it made sense to me!" or whatever, i don't care, i've been repeating the same shit over and over for, what, 4 years now? Writing this post already made me tired

Thats literally not true, he just wrote it in after Nolan's propose treatment for it. It was not last minute at all. It was meant to be a defining moment that built is character, unlike when he killed Zod in the comics which only comes back up once (when he visits his grave later). This was Superman literally trying everything he could to save humanity without damning krypton and he eventually was forced to make a choice.


Like the whole movie revolves around where he draws the line for himself, how much action does he feel it appropriate it to take, and how does he balance the alien and human sides of himself, and then the Zod moment is a reckoning of both of those things.


Even Jurgens, an actual comic writer, thinks its good: http://comicbook.com/2015/07/06/superman-legend-dan-jurgens-man-of-steel-handled-zods-death-bett/
And a thing can both be different and new, and still be paying homage/base itself after older comics. They do that IN comics all the time, stop being such a canon pleb.

That does not happen. Once he finds out about Krypton *poof* he's a Kryptonian smugly explaining his alien language to a random reporter he'll later fuck on the ashes of a thousand dead souls he failed to save

Jesus christ, listen to yourselves. Somehow you know the characters better than the people that created said characters?


Also both MoS and BvS are about the same themes in regards to what actions to take. Man of Steel is definitely about Clark deciding how he wants to engage with the world, BvS is about that approach being tested, and then JL seems to be about the pay off of said approach (ie, inspiring others to do the same).


>Once he finds out about Krypton *poof* he's a Kryptonian

I gave you an argument, you're just choosing to ignore it.
BvS Lex didn't come across as a genius mastermind who will do whatever it takes to get what he wants no matter the costs, he came across as an autistic brat that can barely contain his urge to "REEEE". A big part of Lex's character is that to the public he doesn't seem so bad, but BvS Lex is clearly a fucked up individual, remember his speech at the part where he almost fucking lost his shit?

BvS Lex wasn't threatening, he wasn't entertaining, he wasn't even "so bad he's good", he was just shit. His Doomsday plan was also fucking dumb, if Batman actually killed Superman then Doomsday would have killed Lex before he even found out.

>Why they keep Snyder around if he has been show to be incompetent and a really stupid person on interviews and directing?
>>
>>89814352

>>Bruce should have investigated Supes and already know about his mother previously of the battle. This isnt only what happens on the most comics regarding Batman and He discovering Clark identity, this movie more than anything has a reason for him to do this. If he and Lex want to kill Superman, discovering his identity or information about him is primordial, and they had 2 years. Lex managed to do this, so why not Bruce?
>>Why Superman let the criminals that were throwing rockets at Batman go away?

>>Why you kill the main hero of your universe on the second movie, when he barely had any characterization?
>>Why kill off Clark Kent, the human aspect of Superman?
>> Why Clark has no supporting cast to bounce off? This is fundamental for characterization.
>>Why you think it is a good idea to make a MC with almost no agency?

Yeah, the point wasnt that they physically couldn't be brought back, it was that they damned themselves and as a society created Zod. Basically the failure to turn Zod and his cronies good, meant that Clark gave up on the idea of bringing Krypton back. Its a pretty common theme in the comics, they did a much more elaborate version of the same idea when they had New Krypton.
>Or...he could've tackled Zod again so that they ended up somewhere in the mountains or something.
>Did you miss the part where he tackled Zod through a 7-11?
Did you miss the part where its literally his very first fight ever? And they are genetically trained warriors and he is just a guy with powers? Like he is trying his hardest, dont give me this Superman never makes mistakes shit. Similar battle damage happens in stuff like Secret Identity and Ending Battle.

He blew up a goddamn Senate building just to get the world to hate Superman. He created a super Bizarro/Doomsday monster just to prove that Superman was a fraud.
>if Batman actually killed Superman then Doomsday would have killed Lex before he even found out.
Lex thought he could control Doomsday, just like Lex thought he could control Bizarro in the comics (and was wrong) and just like the Kryptonian scientist thought he could control Doomsday (and was wrong) read some goddamn comics. Luthor creating something he can't control due to hubris is like Luhtor 101. Also if he really really needed to, he had more kryptonite, which would be more than enough to justify in his mind that he could have killed Doomsday if need be.

Shit like this pisses me off on a conceptual level, because there's no reason why he couldn't at least try to do it again but alas, Snyder has to inject his weightless destruction porn somewhere I guess.

>>89814352
>>Why Superman didnt shouted to Batman that his mother was kidnapped, before the battle? Superman could have solved the conflict simply by saying “Bruce, they kidnapped my mom” or even better, “HELP ME!”.
He tried but Batman didn't listen and kept attacking him. And we both know Batman wasn't going to listen.
>>Why Batman think that WW is with Superman, if he knows her secret identity and is actually the only one that talked to her on the cast?
He doesn't know her secret identity at all, just that she lives for a long ass time. If I only knew of two immortals who wear emblems I would think they are together in some capacity.
>> Doesnt Hacksnyder know that needing flashbacks and dream sequences on the middle of your story is considered one of the major marks of a baddly written and confusing story? Seriously, Snyder should read some Robert Mackee.
Holy shit tons and tons and tons of movies use flashbacks, like The Usual Suspects and Rashomon you fucking idiot.
>>Why not use the credits to show the JL members, instead of akwardly shoving them in the middle of a dramatic scene?
They werent awkwardly shoved (learned to spell btw) they were given to him by Luthor to show him there were other metas out there to add to Bruce's paranoia and fear (as illustrated in the email he sends to WW).
>>So why didnt they just kill MARTHA the moment batman arrived?
Because their orders were to kill her if Superman arrived, if they kill her right then they have no bargaining chip.


>>Why didn't Superman use his super speed to zip by and save his mom as soon as he learned she was in danger? If Batman could saver her, why not him, that is quickier and more powerful?
He didn't know where she was. It was shown that Luthor knows Superman cant detect things through led, so she was probably in an all led room. Also Superman had to deal with Doomsday.
>>
>>89814601
I never said he was an autist you moron. Also no one hated Superman over the senate bomb, they were concerned about the africa incident, get it straight before spouting bullshit. And there is NOTHING in the movie which supports Luthor thinking he control Doomsday other than him being a complete fucking dumbass. If anything, he thought Doomsday would kill everyone, including himself, given his reaction and as a petty everyone loses type thing. Not to mention he DIDNT have anymore kryptonite because Batman stole it, nor did he have to means to obtain more.
>>
>>89814601

>>
>>89814352
>>Why did Lex's goons kidnap a woman in Kansas and take her all the way to the east coast right next to where Superman is forced to fight?
Because thats where the led room was, and its harder to find someone in a more densely populated area (as shown in MoS where he has trouble drowning out the sounds).
>>
>>89814601
>He blew up a goddamn Senate building just to get the world to hate Superman.
This is fucking dumb, you blame the bomber, not the target.
>He created a super Bizarro/Doomsday monster just to prove that Superman was a fraud.
A fraud for what? Superman had done nothing but try to help, he never claimed to be the second coming or anything, And he didn't really create it, he put his bloody hand and Zod's body in some juice and the Kryptonian technology did the rest.
>Lex thought he could control Doomsday, just like Lex thought he could control Bizarro in the comics (and was wrong) and just like the Kryptonian scientist thought he could control Doomsday (and was wrong) read some goddamn comics
Lex never once says or implies he thought he could control it, if I recall correctly the computer even tells him he'd be making a mindless monster.
>Also if he really really needed to, he had more kryptonite, which would be more than enough to justify in his mind that he could have killed Doomsday if need be.
If he really believed that why didn't he just make a Kryptonite bullet and get someone to shoot Superman?
>>
>>89814717
>He tried
Yeah, bull. shit. Had Clark said ONE specific detail about both of them being played, or anything other than "Theres no time!", then we could have skipped the entire fight.

Not to mention that if the intention was to show he can't superhero properly then they would've showed it in ANY way. But no, the only time Supes is commenting on the dangers they're bringing down is when he took Zod to Smallvile (and i repeat, HE took him there, they were in open fields before) and he proudly warns the people around him to get back to their houses

There is not a single trace of insecurity in Clark during those fights. Snyderfags have to reach so hard they take for example the scene where Supes purposefully lets an oil tank explode on a building and claim that while the camera is not showing his face he must be "observing in horror" the destruction they're causing

Its painfully obvious he only sees Superman as an alien with no human connections, thus he has no reason to think he has a secret identity (especially since he doesn't even wear a mask).

Because Lex though Superman was a fake from the get go so he had every reason to suspect he had a secret

>>Why Superman let the criminals that were throwing rockets at Batman go away?
They werent criminals, they were guards protecting merchandise from a crazed Batman


>>Why Luthor used a bomb to explode the congress, that was easily conected to him, that would make him go to jail anyway at the end?
It wasnt connected to him by anyone but Lois. And he went to jail for a lot of reasons other than the bomb.

Lex thought he could control Doomsday, just like Lex thought he could control Bizarro in the comics (and was wrong) and just like the Kryptonian scientist thought he could control Doomsday (and was wrong) read some goddamn comics.

He created it as much as anyone creates it using said technology. And I never said Superman claimed anything, but Luthor throughout the movie is convinced Superman isnt as good as he claims he is. He has that whole speech about how he cant be all good or all powerful and is trying to disprove one or the other.
>Lex never once says or implies he thought he could control it, if I recall correctly the computer even tells him he'd be making a mindless monster.
He had that whole blood of my blood speech, and of course he wants to create a mindless monster, because thats the best kind of monster to control, one that cant think for itself. Again, read any comic where Luthor creates Bizarro its the same thing.
>If he really believed that why didn't he just make a Kryptonite bullet and get someone to shoot Superman?
I mean he did in the form of Batman, but it very obviously wouldnt work as a bullet since its very crystalline and brittle in this world. Hence it being turned into a spear. Like the same reason you cant make really good obsidian bullets.

The only time the acknowledge Superman unable to see through lead is in the extended cut when Lois phones about the bomb being encased in lead, even then they brush it off like its been previously established in MoS and at no time do they say Martha was in a lead lined building. Even so, Clark should have had no trouble finding the building given the armed gunmen stationed outside and his super hearing
>>
>>89815105
>>89814891

They show that Luthor knew of his led weakness before, why wouldnt he use it again? But this is all so pedantic, there are a billion reasons why Superman couldnt get Martha. They were ordered to shoot her on sight should he get close. He didnt have enough time to find her. His superspeed is shown to cause sonic booms in this universe so maybe if super speeded to save her he might have hurt her.


etc. and so on
>>
>>89814990
>Nobody talked about secret identity.

YES THEY DID, look at the question being responded to

>>Bruce should have investigated Supes and already know about his mother previously of the battle. This isnt only what happens on the most comics regarding Batman and He discovering Clark identity, this movie more than anything has a reason for him to do this. If he and Lex want to kill Superman, discovering his identity or information about him is primordial, and they had 2 years. Lex managed to do this, so why not Bruce?
They say identity RIGHT there.


Also Bruce found out all the relevant information he needed, his weakness to kryptonite.
>>
>>89815073
>People blame Superman for giving him a reason to bomb anything to begin with, especially since he himself is invincible
It's still fucking dumb because no one does this, people are always angry with the bombers first.
>And I never said Superman claimed anything, but Luthor throughout the movie is convinced Superman isnt as good as he claims he is. He has that whole speech about how he cant be all good or all powerful and is trying to disprove one or the other.
But then he fucking makes Doomsday and is completely convinced that it'd be able to kill Superman, so why even go any further? Not to mention Kryptonite exists, he has two things he either knows or believes will kill Supes so what the fuck was his problem?
>He had that whole blood of my blood speech, and of course he wants to create a mindless monster, because thats the best kind of monster to control, one that cant think for itself. Again, read any comic where Luthor creates Bizarro its the same thing.
Does Lex not know what mindless means? It literally wouldn't think at all, it'd just kill everything it saw.
>I mean he did in the form of Batman, but it very obviously wouldnt work as a bullet since its very crystalline and brittle in this world. Hence it being turned into a spear. Like the same reason you cant make really good obsidian bullets.
There are a number of ways Lex could have killed Superman with kryptonite without involving Batman at all.

How do I know? Because it shows more kryptonite in the ocean:

how that's weird wild-west-y show of his? Frontier? It looks like a cool concept, but he is fronting it and is a terrible actor, so I got my doubts...

The JLA designs all look bad and/or have horrendous casting. Gal Gadot was a standout as a bad actor... in the Fast and Furious movies. That's how bad she is. Tyrese was better than her for fuck's sake.

Superman is a bad actor, Aquaman is bad, Wonder Woman is bad. I have no idea who Flash and Cyborg are, haven't seen them in anything. The design however looks fucking garbage tier.

If Ben Affleck, a mid-level actor at most, is by far the best in your roster... you're gonna have a bad time.

Can anyone honestly say the fight in BvS was better then TDKReturns?
Like...I can forgive all the other bullshit if I at least got a cool live action BvS scene

In the movie batman hits supes with a sink....a fucking sink? Superman flies through buildings like paper and he hits him over the head with a sink.

In the cartoon/comic he attacks him with a power grid, a wrecking ball, fucking homing missiles activated by x-rays!

Whats the point of live action capes if all the spectacle is wasted on heroes posing for camera shots!

And I swear if someone tries and says that a cape film billed as a VS was to deep for good fights satan will rain down your throat with hot acid, dissolve your testicles, and turn your guts into snakes!

This movie had literally nothing for me. If you liked it cool, but stop trying to convince the rest of us your garbage smells good.

Because he doesn't have Martha pinged to his superhearing like Lois, is told that if he comes close to Martha they will kill her, and has to work against a ticking clock.

why would he need to? she has never been in danger and Superman has no reason to think anyone knows his secret identity. While Lois is constantly in dangerous situations (as shown in the opening).

Nice head canon. If there's anyone most deserving of a bat brand or a bullet through the face, it's the Joker.

>>
>>89819609
>Nice head canon.
What head canon, that's what's happened. The events of the zod fight is 18 months ago. Bruce was there and saw the destruction. Ever since then he focused all his time trying to find something to kill Superman with. He didn't have any interest in anything but him. And he only recently started branding and killing people to get more info on the white portuguese. He didn't give fuck about anything but Superman. He even tells Alfred that this might be the only he does that really matters. He didn't kill any of his other villains during that small time frame because they had no relation to Superman.

Batman cares more about alien that he thinks will enslave/destroy the human race more than he does about a clown that he easily deals with all the time. In his mind the Joker could wait, compared to what he believed was something far more dangerous.

Again. He felt like killing the Joker wouldn't stop the real threat. Alfred brings that up. He asks Bruce that 20 years of fighting criminals amounts to nothing. And Bruce says Criminals are like weeds, and goes on how this about the future of the world.
