So why do DC fans still seem so angry? Even when you guys get something nice, you find a way to get salty about it. Hell, the board is stuffed with DC rage today.

We got something incredibly fucking nice with Mos and the UC of Bvs but that wasn't good enough for you inflexible selfish mother fuckers who won't tolerate valid unique alternate versions of characters. Your childish fucking cowards who won't try or accept new things.

Part of it is how they have to rethink things.

The common excuse was that RT/critics are bad and terrible and have an anti-DC bias.

But the same people who hated all of that, liked WW.

By admitting that critics were right about WW, the also have to admit that the old critiques were also right.
>>
>>93343530
Mos and the UC of Bvs factually were competently made in almost every way.
>>
>>93343377
Guess because the critics praising it also took a jab at the other 3 movies, like "A woman saved the dceu" articles and shit.
>>
>>93343377
I'm not mad at it, as someone who loved BvS and MoS, I also liked WW a lot. Don't be dense, of course you are only ever going to see the most extreme opinions because those that hold them are more dogmatic and thus more likely to shout into the void that is 4chan than someone with a moderate, or even non-fanatical, mindset.

And the bigger issue is they have a insufferable bordering on fucking insane level of not paying attention, the number of blind mother fuckers who said Clark destroyed the city when he FACTUALLY ON SCREEN DID NOT DESTROY A SINGLE FUCKING BUILDING is cancer in the purest form imaginable. That extends to the people saying that Pa Kent said to let people die and to not help anyone ever for selfish reasons which is the polar opposite of what fucking happened.

You know about that quote that says one death is a tragedy, one million deaths are a statistic? It's the same about heroic acts. Saving "the world" is an abstract thing. Nobody can conceptualize 7 billion lives. They are just words. On the other hand the scene about the suicidal kid in All Star Superman has a much bigger emotional impact than all the "saves the world" you want.

I'm a Marvel fan(a real Marvel fan too, not a MCUck fanboy from /r/marvelstudios who likes company war bullshit) and I thought Wonder Woman was amazing and a step in the right direction for the DCEU.

After Doctor Strange and Guardians 2 which were generic MCU flicks and bastardizations of the source material, it was refreshing to see capeshit with some originality for once.

Not really, see pic related. the phrase has a dozen different sources. Still, it would be true even if said by Super-Hitler.

Strange and Guardians 2 felt nothing like the other MCU movies. Just like how Winter Solider felt different when compared to the other films.

>>93344872
Except Strange is almost exactly like a typical MCU movie?

I'm a lifelong Marvel fan and Wonder Woman was better than most of the MCU films. Y'all gotta stop it with this juvenile console wars bullshit.

>>93343377

Most people i know like the film, myself i place it at a similar tier as MoS with a few flaws but wholly good final product.

>>
>>93343421
MCU fag here. I think MoS was unfairly maligned, even if it had some problems and I fucking loved WW except for the climax. Look I got nothing against DC, in fact I like a lot of their roster - particularly their villains. It's just that a lot of angry internet fucks have latched onto the DCU to fuel shit flinging, particularly /tv/. I will watch and like any good capeshit that comes along, whatever it's source.
>>
>>93343421
It was okay.

I mean, it wasn't the 9/10 masterpiece that low expectations and virtue signalling critics have made it out to be, but it's not bad. It's definitely better than the Thor films.

Unfortunately, it has some severe issues, like most of the action being underwhelming, Gadot still being an inert plank, and the third acting being a mess, but it makes up for it in other areas. I'm really surprised that the film seems to actually understand WW, and that's what lends it a lot of its charm.

I doubt I'll watch it again, but it wasn't shit.
>>
>>93343377
I didn't like the movie very much. I mean, I certainly didn't dislike it, but I liked Man of Steel and the first two thirds of BvS UC much more.
No anger here by the way, just a feeling of bewilderment as I'm sorta disappointed by first DC movie everyone else seems to like.
>>
>>93344872
Strange did. I mean, it was actually a good film, despite the contrarian streak running through /co/ these days, but it adhered pretty slavishly to the studio formula.

Guardians you have a point with. The structure of GotG is really weird, and it doesn't conform at all to anything you'd expect from the MCU. The only recognizable element from other films is the huge CGIfest at the end, which is an unfortunate hallmark of big blockbuster movies, as suits don't feel like they can sell a movie without one..
>>
>>93347089
>Gadot still being an inert plank

I find her acting to be similar to Keanu's. Might seem like an insult, but I like Keanu and will give movies a try because he's in them. He doesn't have a big acting range, but he's a likeable presence.

Anyway it easily beats watching the DCEU Bats or Supes grimace for a few hours.

I don't like it because it's pretty much a Marvel movie, and it has doomed DC to release samey and clonic movies that won't feel any different from Marvel or FOX's.
BvS and MoS felt different, but they were garbage, so I don't count them.

They're praising it for the wrong reason. Anyone with an IQ of over 100 will tell you MoS and BvS were more compelling, thought-provoking and just better films altogether.

Wonder Woman's story was simplistic, the villains weren't fleshed out- it did not have a sense of grandeur.

>Conversely you then had Marvelfags claiming that Wonder Woman only got good reviews because it starred a woman
Well, most of RT reviews praising movie basically "MUH GRIL POWAH"
>>
>>93355359
I would say that MoS and BvS did poorly because they simply tried to cram too much stuff into one film. They lost focus by trying to cover everything.

WW might be a more simplistic story overall, but I know more about all the characters from that story than I do about any of the characters in MoS and BvS.

A disjointed complex narritive is great, if that's the whole point, but for super hero films, which are largely character driven, focusing on the narrative to the detriment of characters makes them much worse.

BvS really suffered from this, Aquaman, Flash, and Wonder Woman should not have been in that movie. Doomsday especially, while awesome, was a huge derailment. It's a single movie that really should have been 2 or 3 movies on its own. Cramming it into one just makes it awful.
>>
>>93355343
That degree of self awareness is rarely found in these parts. Congrats.
>>
>>93355513
This. Say what you want about MCU movies, but they tell a concise story with a beginning, middle and an end. BvS had some lofty ideas, but it felt muddled.
>>
>>93355513
>It's a single movie that really should have been 2 or 3 movies on its own.

Oh please. You're basically just demanding spoonfeeding from the movie.
>>
>>93355690
No, I'm saying they put in too much stuff, and it would work better as a longer narrative that actually has time to dig into it.

At the very least, if they ditched the Doomsday arc of the film, and focused on the "Heroes come together to stop superman, and make peace" it would have worked better.

They crammed in a bunch of stuff so they could justify doing Justice League, without doing all the legwork that the Marvel folks did by establishing a more solid foundation.

A short nod and a cameo, and a more focused story would be better for the film.
>>
>>93343471
Why would a DC fan defend those turds? It was always Snyder fans that did all that work.

Welcome into MCU 2.0 DCucks
Jon Berg & Geoff Johns get honest about the DCEU

-They admit that the DCEU was too dark

-People embraced WW due to the film being positive and optimistic which is what the DC comics/characters are about

-Suicide Squad didn't work narratively and had a bad plot but had great characters/actors

-BvS was too dark

-Batgirl & Harley Quinn movies are in the works

-Joss Whedon had a meeting with WB/DC and saw Batgirl's name on their master board and expressed interest

-Geoff & St.Patty Jenkins are currently working on a WW sequel treatment

-WWs role in JL isn't changing due to the success of the film. She always had a big part in it due to the audience reception in BvS

That comes after Clark already failed. Sure, it's nice, but it doesn't make me forget that half of Metropolis was turned to dust or that Supes dodged a fucking oil tank only to let it explode on a building that was shown to be full of people

He should've saved multiple people DURING the fight, not as an afterthought, like Donner's did or the Avengers

This.

I'm gonna use a food analogy, because it's how I think;

If I order a basic cheeseburger and I get a basic cheeseburger, I'm satisfied.

If I order a fancy souffle, and what I get is a burnt collapsed mess, I'm not at all satisfied. It doesn't matter that the chef tried to cook something complicated; he wasn't skilled enough to pull it off, the dish didn't work, he shouldn't have put it on the menu in the first place and I'd rather eat a cheeseburger.

How did he fail? He had to go around the world to destroy one part of the World Engine since nobody else could do it. And the oil tanker somehow did more damage than what Zod's eyebeams or the world engine had already done? Come on.

>He should've saved multiple people DURING the fight,

This is pure autism. How the fuck can he save people while combating a military nutjob who had just vowed to commit planetwide genocide? A guy who btw is genetically engineered to be better at fighting than him. Clark was barely holding on as it was and Zod was growing better and better at using his powers every second.
>>
>>93355941
>Doomsday arc

He's a mindless monster to punch, he had no arc. His creation was directly tied to establishing how connected and widespread Lex's influence was, which strenghtened the idea that he could figure out Batman and Superman's identities.

>A short nod and a cameo, and a more focused story would be better for the film

That's literally what Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg cameos were.
>>
>>93356679
I know it's hard for you people to understand this, but here's how it works: if the writer/director want something to happen, it happens. If Clark wasn't able to save people it's because the creators specifically decided that wasn't going to happen, not because that's the only possible outcome. Screaming over and over again "HUUUURRR ZOD WOULDN'T ALLOW IT" is literally meaningless, because Zod has no bearing on the script

How the fuck do you get "spoonfeeding" from that you fucking idiot
>>
>>93356735

Why is it bad that people died in an alien invasion? Superman cannot save everyone, it's literally impossible for him to be everywhere at once. People already died when the World Engine went online and the collateral damage killed some more once the fight with Zod moved on. Criticizing that two Kryptonians fighting in a giant metropolitan city would hurt anyone even indirectly is inane.
>>
>>93357125
Nobody's saying people aren't allowed to die. In fact plenty of people die in most cape movies. WW didn't stop the wars just with her presence, just like the Avengers didn't automatically save everybody from the Chitauri or Ultron's robots, Zemo made a bunch of politicians blow up, Logan loses people all the time etc.

Problem is, we see those heroes struggle to save the innocents. With Clark we see no such thing, it's all about punching things, and that inevitably frustrates the viewers, and the fanboys have nothing but "well, he's SUPPOSED to be retarded!" as excuse

He made a fucking oil tank explode on a building. You don't need years of superhero experience to realize what was going to happen. That particular situation is so ridiculous some Snyderfags ended up claiming maybe Clark thought it contained fucking water so it's not his fault
>>
>>93356735
If Superman had stopped fighting Zod to save people you would be bithing about Zod not attacking him while he does it or destroying the world at the time, or if he did it you'd be calling Supermab a dumbass for getting distracted while there is an overpowered alien about to nuke the entire planet. Since there is literally no winning with you guys, all these criticisms have very little value

Just Marvel fans false flagging as DC fans, just like every time a DC movie comes out. Either that or corporate shills.

The only thing to get angry about is that critics once again chose politics over giving legitimate reviews. Sure, it's nice to have critics like it, but they liked it for the wrong reasons. Judge it based on its merits rather than "yaas queen slay."
>>
>>93343377
OP I'll tell you what it is

it's comic book readers

they're predominantly older, male, sometime in their probably early 50s now, with a family and a lot of free capital (high earners)

there's fewer and fewer of them every year, because the older ones are dying off

what you get as a subset of these is very vocal fans who fit the basic profile but maybe don't have kids, or still read comics to escape their families even though they don't have a lot of money

and this subset are the superfans: the ones who know every storyline from the last 10 years, even the ones they hated

they read it all, and they get angry about it, and to be honest, that vocal anger can sometimes drive the publisher's offerings if the publisher mistakes them for the majority viewpoint because of how loud they get

so it is with movies: they've followed the comics for years and they feel that publishers "owe" them (in fact, the transaction "money for comics" has been satisfactorily completed every time they've bought anything) and by extension production companies working on movies about those selfsame comic book characters "owe" them (which is ludicrous)

and when you get a movie that's not aimed at this subset, or which isn't even aimed in their general direction (such as the first two Thor movies), they complain

a lot

and they will never stop complaining, because they feel that they somehow "own" the characters, they're emotionally invested in them and their worlds; broken little men playing with dolls

ignore them, most people are normal, even among comic book readers
>>
>>93357389
It's feminist propaganda from a feminist director. Critics call them as they see them and many agree this movie was good because it followed the MCU formula

I'll also use a food analogy- when you order a cheeseburger from Snyder, you get double patties (beef v lamb), cheddar inside the patties, swiss between the patties, american on top of the patties and parmesan dusted over the bun. There are layers to his cheeziness.

Cheese enthusiasts will understand what he is aiming for- from where he draws his inspiration. And even after two years you'll still try to decipher the flavors in every bite- there will be articles about about the discovery of a new form of cheese inside the bun. That's the depth Snyder can achieve. He will keep you wondering, he will keep you discovering, he will have you engaged.

>And even after two years we'll still be composing senseless analysis and explanatory pics to justify this absurdity, because we need the world to accept our contrarianism as deep understanding of a deep work of art, and then we'll paint our obsessions as the proof that these capeshit movies were actually so deep that you NEED to talk about them for 4 years straight just to scratch the surface, you just don't get it, it's not like we're insecure about our preferences or anything

>>93358512

Snyder really isn't all that complex. His movies all opt for style over substance. He's at his best when he's working from a good script (Watchmen) or when the story is secondary to the visuals (Sucker Punch). Batman v Supermsn reads like a thirteen year old's meditations on the nature of power and Man of Steel really did not deliver on its own allegory for a christ-like savior. I'll give him props for his aspirations with these movies but it really does feel like the end result isn't what he was hoping for.

And speaking of bad scripts, it was a mistake to go with Johns' story for a Justice League movie. Final Crisis is a way better match for Snyder's strange, ideological style.

Yep. Problem is that half the population has an IQ below 100 and prefers safe samey paint-by-#s shlock ending with vacuous proclamations about 'the power of love and friendship'

Guess which half most people that blog about movies for a career are in?

>Conversely you then had Marvelfags claiming that Wonder Woman only got good reviews because it starred a woman and Iron Fist is actually amazing but critics hate it because something something white genocide

WW partly got good reviews because it starred a woman, but it mostly got good reviews because it was /directed/ by a woman. Truly a mediocre film, hype aside

Also, had quite the laugh at your post implying it's wacky to acknowledge WW got the 'grrrl power' critic boost and Iron Fist got whitebashed when a clear majority of reviews explicitly gush over 'the social importance' of the former and the 'problematic white savior' complex of the latter. See for yourself homie, there's no need to speculate:

But i thought you guys said BvS and MoS were about love and hope
>>
>>93359870
BvS and MoS are fundamentally hopeful films, but they don't end with characters braying "by the Power of Love I defeat you!" because they actually have real thematic and sociopolitical complexity, which irritates the barking sea lions that make up most of the tomatometer ^_^

You mean critics and audience in general?RT is just a compiliation of critics.

And no those movies are simply Edgy shit, Zack Snyder never made anything that was not edgy shit in his life

>>93343377
>So why do DC fans still seem so angry
M8 those are not and were not fans of anything, they're shitposters, pot stirrers, baiters, haters, and any and all manner of instigator and controversy seeker.

They've existed since before console war faggotry, but they're likely exactly refugees from /v/ or /tv/ who are only here to divide and ire because it amuses them to see others upset. They derive no joy or entertainment from any of the media. It's about the reaction it gets or can get.
They'll bring up all the frustrating topics every chance they can for years but they'll likely never watch these movies a fraction of that figure, if they watched them at all.

>>93360372
Don't worry, they're tossing you guys bones now, you can expect more "I Believe in LOVE!" shallow romps instead of philosophically profound and politically complex deconstructions :)

Myself because I wanted an interesting movie. Not a by the numbers action comedy flick.

Now consider the following, it had a great push thanks to social agendas from bloggers, critics in what was described as a feminist movie (i dont think it really is, but these people push as it if was). The second and third week were all thanks to huge push the media gave to the movie. And even then its the worst selling DC movie. Now imagine the numbers without the free pass the media gave it. They would be shit.

>>93360755
Ghostbusters kind of proves you wrong, my dude. SJWs have zero (0) impact on the audience reaction and the box office
>>
>>93360918
GB was beyond terrible. This was a mediocre safe blockbuster within the rules of the MCU formula. The great reviews sure helped on its third week. If it was being shat on like BvS it would had an awful third week. And even then the movie is not making money.

Its fun to see articles saying "its the third best selling movie of the dceu" when in fact there are only 4 movies in the dceu
>>
Do you guys think it may be related with the couple of dozens of marvel shill who raided this board and /tv/ making hundreds "WW is shit DC is over", to the EMBARRASSING point of posting pics of empty theaters, maybe couple with the now confirmed disney shills publishing suspicious unsourced letters about WW being shit months before a finished cut was edited (so it was impossible for them to know), all of them being BTFO to the deepest, darkests limits of the BTFO dimension in the past few weeks?

I don't consider myself part of the Marvel vs DC war, I have seen all DC films and only a few Marvel ones, but Wonder Woman is the first DC movie with a competent screenplay.

The Zack Snyder movies and Suicide Squad (in particular!) were messy and incoherent. Suicide Squad was infuriating because I know they wanted to copy Guardians of the Galaxy with all the jokes and quips and music but they completely fucked it all up, Fantastic Four-style. SS actually would have worked as a dark movie. But they didn't have the balls. "ZOMG! HAVE TO COPY MARVEL! QUICK GET THE RIGHTS TO A BUNCH OF COOL SONGS!"

Yeah,no.
Snyder has spread CheezWhiz on everything and told you that its fucking amazing. Not wanting to be caught out as the pseudo-intellectual that you are you parrot the BS
Its just CheezWhiz.

IF we are talking about this crap at all in two years, it will be "how did anyone think this was real cheese"

>>93361908
Hoe does that affect the absurdly good box office WW is having? The movie is still better than GotG2 even if a couple of reviewers mention girl things in the reviews y'know
>>
>>93343377
because DCEU fans are just contrarians. How can they show off how deep and intellectual they are if they like the same movies as the unwashed masses? That one intro film analysis class taught them everything they need to know about film

He dodged the oil tank like any normal person would because it's a reflex and he's not used to fighting and using his invulnerability to specifically shield his surroundings. Stop being autistic.

I find it funny that Marvelshits are actually attempting to push a narrative that DC fans are angry about WW success. You fuckers are almost as retarded as Sony fanboys.

Almost

I'm confused, when did superhero movies start getting actually good? I watched Thor and all that crap, those movies were fucking shit compared to these.

It has higher reviews than it should, but overall most flesh and blood people I've talked to about liked it, thought it was fun, enjoyed the characters, and hated the casting/misuse of real Ares.

Naw brah,

Superman would've been saving and fighting at same time. Superheroes thwart, he didn't thwart enough.

>>93363566
MCU shit is fairly bland.

Its not all of them, its the contrarian ones, the same ones who think the BvS is some philosophical masterpiece. The only person I know that has liked any of the DCEU movies that wasn't like that only liked Suicide Squad, and she liked Wonder Woman too

I like the MCU a lot but WW was a really good film.
I don't know why people would feel the need to complain about having more good movies to watch.

/co/ is literally the only place people are hating it. Everywhere else, DC fans are happy that we got a movie that didn't suck. MoS was ok, but the other 2 were shit. I'm a DC fan and I love the fact we got a competent and decent movie in a while, especially one about Wonder Woman. Where the heck are you getting this "DC fans hate it" bullshit?

Please try to explain how your analysis is the objective standard that determines whether a movie is "good" or "bad", irrespective of literally everyone else's opinion. Please do it.

>>93364943
Well, I figured the degeneracy hole that is /co/ would consider Rorschach badass.
