In your autism you really went around screemcaping all of this just for this thread?

Were you bullied or something when you said that you like the DCEU, AND now is trying to over compensate?

>>90498327
I wait this more than Star Wars 9 or whatever, want different director though, not because I don't like original one (MoS, First Avenger, First Class and Amazing Spider-Man are best in the game after year 2010 imo), but because I want different take, and it needs to be called "the Superman" (in the Man of Steel - the Superman - Man of Tomorrow trilogy) and it will be dawn of 2020's superheroics.

>>90498257
I hope he will finally direct Last Photograph in between. Dude clearly needs breaktime ,like everyone.


>>90498369
You are really believed those bs rumors? Like decreasing of Snyder's role in DCEU when in reality he is now direct producer of future kinos AND now he is touching story part (of Wonder Woman, Justice League 1 and 2), before BvS "backlash" he was only visual guy.

WB hasn't abandoned Goyer at this point, why would they wrest the DCEU from Snyder's wife?

I think Zack is going to take the Justice League thing as far as it can go. Only bad box office returns can stop his wild ride.

It'll never be the massively popular money-machine that the MCU is, but it's clearly capable of cashing in on Marvel's superheroic Renaissance.

I'm very curious how far Fox can take Deadpool at R, and whether WB will attempt the same with Harley Quip or remain safely PG.

Is MoS 2 going to be Superman vs Black Adam? that should be fun, all that jibba jabba about if and when Superman takes an interest in foreign policies and then BAM! Black Adam is cracking open dictators like bears and declaring himself in charge.

>>90498497

I'd settle for that 300 style George Washington movie. Released on 2032, three hundred year anniversary of Washington's birth.

>>90498970
Haha, having Superman take over Captain ((Marvel's)) Rogues would be just about the final insult to the character's legacy.

I fully approve. With Luthor essentially garbage now, I'd support mad scientist Sivana as a Superman foe.

>>90498999

They've talked about Black Adam getting his origin movie that leads to Shazam movie.

https://itsjustmovies.com/warner-bros-getting-green-lantern-sequel-ready/

As reported in Variety, Michael Goldenberg, the screen-writer behind “Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix,” “Where the Wild Things Are” and the first “Lantern,” has been re-hired to tackle the sequel treatment idea that was conjured up by his fellow “Lantern” scribes Greg Berlanti, Michael Green and Marc Guggenheim a while back. More intriguingly, rumors have been filtering out of the studio that the planned story is so immense that it could potentially require back-to-back productions ala “The Back to the Future” and “Pirates of the Caribbean” sequels.
Although it’s not uncommon to hear news of sequels or spin-offs well before the release of an initial film (“The Hangover” and “Sherlock Holmes” spring to mind), it’s important to realize that these chest-thumping announcements can also be retracted lickety-split should a fledgling franchise prove to be a non-starter (“The Golden Compass,” anyone?). I’m optimistic that director Martin Campbell and star Ryan Reynolds have a hit on their hands, but it’s still a bit too early to take this news as a solid guarantee.

Green Lantern's sequel plans were widely reported at the time, and discussed by the creators of the original film, way way back when you were busy being 10 yrs old.

Mel Gibson will be humbled after making a superhero film because then he'll understand why special effects cost so much. I hope it ends up being good. The whole "I don't know the source material" meme can be fixed easily by just reading Ostrander's Suicide Squad.

>>90498436
Well looks like this guy definitely got mad. Good job, OP!

>>90498509
Man of Steel should have won best picture and best visual effects, same with BvS. Snyder was robbed. Just look at the BvS effect reel and tell me who else cared that much about making the movie look good. And Superman vs. Zod was the greatest fight of all time, there's no reason why MoS wasn't even nominated.

>>90498999
Lex Luthor was great. Don't be mad that they didn't use the version that was popular when you were 12 years old.

>>90498257

Great thread

>>90499880
Music definitely, costumes I'm not sure. I don't think having one/two good costumes is enough for something like that. I wasn't being sarcastic by the way, I hated superhero fights (it was the prime reason I didn't watch any live action movies) and I thought we'd never get the tech to make them good. Man of Steel really surprised me with what they could do.

>>90500086
Jesus Christ.
This shit won best make up. Look at the guy's head when she leans, pulling one of the monsters with him.

The only reason they got away with this Star Trek: TOS level costume design is because they made sure to turn the lights down until you can't see the creatures.

That award should've gone to the fucking Lighting department.

And before you call me a Marvelcuck, I'm mad because Star Trek deserved that award.

>>90499933

>>90500189
ah yeah thats fair.

>>90500179
maybe not a marvelcuck but still an idiot, most of the alien designs were background blink and miss stuff, SS had Enchantress, Harley, Katana, Diablo, Croc and Joker all in key roles all with at least one action scene, and differing looks through the progression of the film alone.

It deserved the reward just for the underwater croc scene alone.

>>90500261
For real after I saw BvS I thought "hah the critics are so wrong, nobody will take RT seriously after this." I couldn't believe it! I seriously overestimated the intelligence of people! I've never done that before.

>>90500261
>>90500229
I do think DCU movies are fucking garbage, but Mel Gibson is unironically a phenomenal director. I don't care that he hates Jews and calls his wife a whore - I'm open to any movie with him directing, he's good at it.

>>90500274
>most of the alien designs were background blink and miss stuff
That "most" only belongs in that sentence in a ridicolously pedantic level, because you could easily argue there are tons of federation aliens that do in fact show up for only a short time at the beginning and end of the movie.

That doesn't mean the movie isn't chock full of people in complex make ups partaking in action sequences and stunts left and right, while Croc had 1, maybe 2 scenes where he isn't just walking around slapping people in a hoodie like he's discount Bud Spencer.

>>90498491

While I find the Marvel films bland and formulaic, they didn't actively frustrate me like Man of Steel.

literally for what purpose did Superman have to blow up Metropolis? I mean LITERALLY ALL IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN WAS ONE SCENE. Just have one scene of Superman trying to get Zod to fight him on the moon or some shit. Or one scene of Zod going I WILL KILL EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THIS CITY UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO FIGHT ME.

Instead Zod's only motivation that he states is to fight Supes, and Superman handles it like an asshole killing thousands of people and causing billions of property damage.

Also the movie's dialogue was shit, most of the lines were literally just trailer bait, and there's literally a scene in the church where when Superman is in frame there's a cross in the background.

And that's just Man of Steel, that's the best DCEU so far. Batman v Superman was so fucking bad I got kicked out of the theater for constantly laughing, I only got to experience the full thing later on the extended blu-ray, which made me laugh even harder. These movies are terrible, I can only hope that they're all as terrible or worse than Batman V Superman.

Let's try to guess Justice League's Metacritic score.

I'll say 35% due to over-reliance on spectacle, too many stories competing for focus and lack of overall character development. Positive points include decent fight choreography and performance by Cavill and Affleck.

ohhh, stealth /an/ thread?

So, 100 people took the bait and continued to take further bait from screen capped twitter posts, starting with one from someone who no longer has any actual day to day dealings with the DCEU since he has 'retired' (read: been let go) as a day to day producer on the films, something he was doing for Nolan and he's still being let go.

As for Zach, like him or hate him, he's got a contract. Which is as worthless as tissue paper. Marc Webb had a contract to direct TASM3. Andrew Garfield has a contract to star in TASM3. Trank probably had a 3 picture deal for F4, as did the cast. Eric Bana had a 3 picture contract for Hulk and so did Edward Norton.

A twitter screen cap is about as valuable as a pearl in the ocean (or a diamond in a coal mine). If you find one, it's great, but you're going to waste a lot of time and effort looking for the real deal.

>That have the worst "fanbase" of the last years.
Kinoposters are just a vocal minority.
I like the DCEU so far, but I don't whip out charts explaining Snyder's kinographic genius.

I do like DC's approach tho.

Snyder and Ayer are both very distinctive directors style-wise.
They just need to stop fucking with their movies.

>GREENLIGHT EVERYTHING MAKE SURE NOBODY THINKS THIS SHIP IS SINKING
lets wait before these movies have actually started production shall we? or atleast until a director is confirmed

Lex Luthor's scheme was great. His capacity to manipulate the orchestra of the entire world around him was great. His sense of entitlement and superiority to that world was also great. Lex Luthor however, the individual who did all of these things, and the manner with which he said these wonderful things was complete dogshit.

Don't get me wrong. I don't even mind Eisenberg. What I mind is his self-declared Max Landis impression. All he needed to do was bring back his Zuckerburg, and he would have been the best part of the movie. Max Landis doing all of those wonderful things Lex Luthor would do just poisoned the Lex well for me.
Also, CAPTCHA confirmed part of the DCEU Hypercrisis.

>>90507244

I just described this last issue in that comment.

I could also argue that Clark''s childhood was better show on the comic and could easily be translated on the movies. The scene with kid Clark in the car after whatching ET, is one of them.

There is no one (I hope) who thought that Pa Kent was telling Clark to not help people.

disagree there, i felt it was just a poor mans adaptation of young clark in the first Reeves film. Not saying i thought MoS origin was better, but it came across as fresh to me at least.

Nope, Green Lantern supposed to be in itself thing, like Dark Knight trilogy. Man of Steel already began filming in 2011 (when Green Lantern came out) how do you possibly can tie them together, even MCU isn't THAT inconsistent, even with Strange.

I guess it's same critique like with Skwad. Guys ALREADY cut out scenes where Joker beats Harley, still they managed to oversee a threat to feminism in what left in that (academy award muhahaha) flick. Hope they will do right Joker-Harley relationship in the end.

>>90509323
Anon, that's what people said about Clark in MoS, and he was the exact same in BvS. Why is it that all the bad portrayals are intentional because "they are just starting" but Wonder Woman and Batman can be introduced completely established? Bruce even made debatable choices in BvS and we get into damage control with that being part of his arc, and that Superman has inspired him and the killing will end, but we get a look at the League Batmobile and it looks intentionally more lethal than the one in BvS? If you like it, just say you like it, but can we please stop pretending WB gives a shit about making the DCEU recognizable?

>>90509323
>he was retarded in the first movie on purpose
well that makes it much better.

>>90509637
>and he was the exact same in BvS
He was much worse in BvS than he was in MoS. Snyder literally took the character backwards.

>>90509614
well Skwad still had abhorrent editing which probably attributed to its critical panning, (actually fuck that next to none of the reviews i read even mentioned ediiting). And i am saying this as someone who quite likes the film in spite of that.

I really do recommend Lone Ranger tho nig, its a solid film that deserved better.

>>90509566
Mt him, but MOS pa Kent killed himself in front of Clark to make him never reveal his secret to the world, and thus making it so Clark couldn't reveal to the world on his terms. This probably made him become a friendless traveler that can't hold a job.


American Alien pa Kent found a plane and rescued his son with a hook when he lost control of his powers, and gave motivational speeches on how Clark should embrace who he is.

>>90509637>>90509673

>>90510122

I mean, it is. If you read any DC at all, it is.

>>90510095
see Mark Waid (the guy that fucking wrote it) opinion.

>>90509850
I completely agree.
Yes, he was way too manic, and a bit young. But the core is there. I could easily see this Lex make a comeback by saying he was being manipulated by Darkseid once he's beaten, then using that to push his "aliens are dangerous" narrative against Superman. He'd be more restrained, more calculating.

>>90510158

>>90509789
If anything the problem is the opposite. Snyder (and his fanbase) defines humanity almost exclusively by its flaws. "Character X was humanized" always seems to be in defense of turning them into a paranoid, antisocial, fearful, neurotic asshole.
Jonathan is a fundie that's not even savvy enough to home school his kid, and that's "humanized"
Clark ended up a whiny bitch that's only good as a meat shield and this is him being 'humanized".
Characters in general can act pants on head retarded to justify plot points and that's "humanized"

Confidence, altruism, optimism, humor, faith in your fellow man? These are casual campy mary sue traits and not realistic. Levity is an anathema for no real reason other than the other team does it.

It worked for Iron Man.
Every other MCU movie has everyone pretending to be Tony Stark and it's just bad.

People say GOTG was risky, unknown property etc... it wasn't, because they had a quip every five seconds to make the audience feel secure.
There is nothing immersive about the MCU.

>>90510219
Examples of any of this, because this feels like your making shit up.

MoS Johnathan was a flawed but loving man and was humanised. Other then that i have never seen anyone make an argument like that for another character.

And how can you spell a word three times and not even get it correct once.

>>90510158
Did he finally give an opinion about BvS? I thought he was abstaining.

>>90498301
No jewish actors in the cast; it might work.

When you use hyperbole i t just makes you look dumb. The First Avenger wasn't "Steve ans Tony Stark". nor was Thor "Thor as Tony Stark" nor was Incredible Hulk "Bruce Banner as Tony Stark".
And by the way, even if that were the case, why is that unacceptable in light of "Clark Kent doens't have enough Batman-esque angst. Make him brood more!"
Immersion goes both ways. I wasn't immersed in any DCEU movie either; just bored, because the characters are so lacking in charisma I don't get attached to them. Let Superman stay dead; his life was almost nothing but suffering anyway.

>>90510441
>because the characters are so lacking in charisma I don't get attached to them.
When you use Hyperbole it just makes you look dumb.

Charisma does not mean "happy".

>>90510327
>Examples of any of this, because this feels like your making shit up.
You just gave one.
People in these threads constantly excuse lapses in logic and behavior under the guise of "they're human! humans make mistakes!".

Jonathan doesn't want people to discover his son's an alien? It's unorthodox but I could get on board. But to the extent that he'll dive headfirst into a tornado, yet not pull his alien son out of school after said alien son has a superpower freak out while still paradoxically taking alien artifacts to get analyzed? Now you're just using what might've been an interesting characterization inconsistently and to justify a "humans are shit!" diatribe.


Bruce wants to kill the Superman? Wouldn't be the first time. Go for it. Bruce is a paranoid asshole? Yeah, absolutely. But then we get Bruce spends 2 years brooding in his basement and in that time can't figure out what Lois Lane does in a quarter of the time. Because 'he doesn't want to".. It makes no actual sense, but "he's human! he makes mistakes!"

>>90510560

>Superman in BvS was pretty much established (to some extend), he works as Clark Kent in Daily Planet, saves people as Superman, trying with Lois, visiting mom sometimes, first thing he did when he realized he couldn't take out Doomsday with classic punch he dragged him into space.

Anon. The way Lex wasn't Lex, but did the thing Lex does, is the way Superman wasn't Superman but did what Superman does.
The same way there Bruce Wayne is different from Batman is the way Clark is different from "Daily Planet mild mannered reporter Clark Kent" is different from Superman. The DCEU has only ever given us its version of Clark. He may wear a Superman costume at times, but Superman has never shown up. He has only ever been Clark.

>>90510600

I don't fucking get you people!
Why do you this movie?

>>90510495
>Charisma does not mean "happy".
Never said it did.
It's a lot of different things. And in Clark's case, my biggest problems were not that he wasn't """""happy""""" enough but more that he lacks agency in Man of Steel and is a practical non-entity in Batman v Lex Luthor, especially in the theatrical cut.

>>90510495
Logan on LOGAN has more charisma than any shut out of snyderman.

>>90510609
>>90510658
I just don't see how any of these type of complaints add up to anything more than minor.

I don't understand why so many of my fellow(?) comic fans don't like these stories.
They are interesting and ambitious.

>>90510648
If I wanted to see people in costume who didn't give a shit about portraying the personality of the character who wears it, I'd walk around in Times Square or in front of Grumman's Chinese Theatre and compliment the "actors" there for the live action superhero universe they were portraying.

>>90510560
again other then Johnathan, when has this argument been used. Also,

>Because 'he doesn't want to".. It makes no actual sense, but "he's human! he makes mistakes!"
batman makes mistakes in the comics a lot too, so that suits.

>>90510680
English, Paco.

>>90510703
Maybe you have autism, or maybe you just dismiss major complains regarding characterization (and Snyder know problem of making bland MCs) as they were not important.

>>90510585
Logical inconsistency.
Now admittedly the way the film is cut helps to obfuscate this, but if you think about it logically, Clark never should've been on that bus as a kid. His super senses trigger and he has his first super power freak out years before that. His heat vision? 30 minutes to an hour after that. (Imagine if they were switched. He'd have killed his classmates).
Why's he still in school after that, if Jonathan is so paranoid and so fearful of his discovery? Why isn't he removed from a situation where he's constantly being bullied and might lash out with his weird alien powers and get discovered? Why's Jonathan taking pieces of alien junk to get analyzed if he doesn't want Clark to be revealed?
It's like they wanted to get the "When people discover you shit will hit the fan" scenes, but didn't think about the implications beyond that. Jonathan puts Clark's true nature at risk through both his actions and his inaction, and we're either not supposed to notice, supposed to ignore it if we do, or dismiss it as "he's not perfect!"

>making bland MCs
I don't agree with this though.
MoS Clark is not any more bland than Superman 78 Clark. He's just less flamboyant.

>They are interesting and ambitious.
That may be, but there is more to portraying the DCU than putting people in costumes, calling them the right names, and using them like action figures to recreate classical art.

>>90510648
Yes, Clark flies around saving people.
He does it while crying like a pussy.
You don't seem to get that flying around saving people isn't enough. You also have to not cry like a pussy.

>>90510703
If I jump off the roof with cardboard wings, that's ambitious. It's only brilliant if you SUCCEED.

I still don't get your issue.
I don't see how any of those things are things a normal person wouldn't do.
And you're doing that thing where you take a core idea of a narrative (that people have failings and make mistakes) and make it off limits to use in an argument.

>>90510833
And they are doing more than that.

I also never got how "jar of piss" is supposed to be indicative of a bad film.

This. Every goddamn board on 4chan is now basically /pol/

>>90510866
And they have, to a certain extent. Enough that I want to keep watching what they are doing.

Maybe this will help.
For the record, this is purely meant to convey tone. I'm not referring to particular scenes, and while I made this for MoS, it still applies to the entire DCEU in my book.

But the "what I expected" shot is from the fucking movie, you stain.
I don't care what you meant to convey, that image is retarded on a fundamental level.

>>90510898
Well, it is a jar of piss, and it is an integral prop from a significant moment in a plot that takes itself more seriously than 90% of Oscar bait. It's fucking surreal. If this were a Farley Brothers movie it wouldn't stick out. For the record however, that was meant to convey the significance of the jar of piss in the plot.
>Don't piss in a jar and call it Granny's Peach tea.
Don't say you're giving me something when in fact you aren't.
In the case of the DCEU it is the jar of piss being sold like it is DCU on film, when there are fundamental necessities missing that prevent it from being able to accepted as such.

Ironic that you call out Snyder for Pseudo-intellectualism, yet this analogy is it's very apogee.

>>90510878
I know you don't. I also don't know how to make "this plot point lacks logical consistency" any clearer for you.
I'm also not saying the core idea of the narrative is off limits as an argument. The core idea of the narrative *is* part of my argument; namely that Snyder defines humanity almost exclusively by its flaws and spends almost no time on its merits, which is not only diametrically opposed to the humanist spirit found in DC comics, but results in a failure to explore why the nominal "heroes" do what they do.

For all that Clark was 'humanized" by constantly being dragged through the muck, there's no clear picture of why he wants to help people. There's an ASSUMPTION that he gets his altruism from the Kents (because it happens everywhere else, and you guys are so sure that Snyder gets it, so that must be the case here even if it doesn't look like it) but it doesn't actually match up with this version of the Kents, Jonathan especially, were shown. His characterization and his actions, like many other characterizations and actions in the movie, are an inconsistent forced, and inorganic mess that I'm supposed to overlook for no apparent reason than >muh realism.

And naturally even noticing this is nitpicking.

people got very triggered didnt they

>>90510973
I don't know if you're aware, but there are things called trailers that show parts of a full movie before it is released in full. They are meant to give people an indication of the content of the final product. They typically provide a hint at what people can expect from the entire movie. It is entirely possible to have an expectation of a movie based upon a part of it. Nevermind the fact that it is also possible to have an expectation of a movie when a part an expectation is based on is from an early portion of the movie.

Lex is pretty incongruous with the rest of the universe though. Everyone else gets to be sedate, subdued, grounded, and stoic, while this Lex is even campier than Hackman and chews up the scenery every time he's within 30 feet of the camera.

But hey, you guys are defending casting done ion the basis of "He doesn't give a fuck' so I guess that works for you?

This just isn't true m8.
When you guys go off on wild tangents like this it always makes me wonder what movie you've seen, because in the one I watched, Pa Kent was a supportive, loving, but fearful Father who was trying to be a role model for his Son.

The only thing i'll grant you is that the Tornado scene could have bee replaced with something less grandiose.

These two don't contradict each other like you seem to think they do.
There are different types of people and personalities in the world.
