First part is glorious, second part is slow, disjointed and weird, last third is CGIfest with shitty acting.

Some scenes are great and better than anything Marvel has ever done (Metropolis destruction, Bruce's parents death, Superman's DON'T READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCH THE MOVIE funeral).

But overal story is clumsy, most characters lack any motivation, action scenes were worse than Marvel (And Marvel has a story with dealing with bad action sequences), plot is overstuffed and you feel like they include 1000 things just to build up, and not for any real reason.

7/10

If you're not married to the characters as they've appeared in cartoons, know comics lore, and don't need a story spoonfed to you like an autistic child, you'll love the shit out of it.

It treats the characters as actual human beings, complete with their own psychologies, the plot's Byzantine in just about the best way possible, and Eisenberg's Luthor is an incredible revamp of the character.

When you're done, ask yourself why Bruce chooses to make a spear, then head on back to his dream for the single-most vital clue.

MoS was about Clark growing up from being a guy from Kansas with strange powers and searching his purpose on Earth to a superhero who embraces his destiny and saves the world. The character arc in BvS is about Clark learning to deal with aftermath of that: the burden of being a public superhero and thus the object of political interest and controversy. He learns that despite his powers, he can't always do the right thing and save everyone. People will still die because he is fallible. A true hero is one who may fall down but just gets back up again.

When Superman saves the child from the burning apartments, he is surrounded by dead people embracing him, even worshipping him. But Superman doesn't happily take it all with a smile. In fact, he reluctantly turns his head away in what appears to be him feeling some sort of dread or pain.

I think this is Superman realizing that he is surrounded "by the dead". That he is so different from them, they will know death, he will not. Maybe it's even part shame, knowing that our fates are set in stone while his isn't. A God among men. But he also desires to be one of us.

In his fight against Batman, Batman says "you don't know what it means to be brave. Men are brave". And this is true to some extent. An immortal God figure cannot be brave as there is no risk involved. "It's time you learn what it means to be a man" means coming face to face with death, which is what separates Superman from man. If he can't do that, then he cannot be brave and he cannot be man.

This dilemma of death is eventually adressed in the climax of the film, as he comes to terms with his own mortality, and pays the ultimate price of a human being. Superman becomes man. Superman overcomes the final trial. And that is accepting his own death. And this is when Batman finally recognizes Superman as man.

Bravo Snyder

If you're a 12-22 guy, it's really good. Basically, Snyder is incapable of understanding characters or motivations beyond adolescent masculinity. His visuals are pretty, but largely lifted from other sources. His themes are hamfisted and surface-level. None of this will bother the young male demographic.

If your tastes are little more mature, you'll quickly find yourself annoyed by Snyder's over-reaching, pretentious psuedo-depth.

So, really the answer is "it depends." You do you, man. It's totally okay to love the movie and it's totally okay to hate it.

>Why does Lex do anything?

Because unlike pretty much everyone else on the planet, Lex learned what the metahumans really are and what their presence means. Their presence is significant and quite possibly not a random occurrence. Lex understands, quite possibly because of what he learned from the Kryptonian AI, that gods and magic are an actual thing, that metahumans didn't inspire our myths. Our "myths" were the reality and the metahumans are just echoes of those forces.

>>83607190
>What about the clear focus on Jesus iconography in MoS?
Wasn't all that clear in focus, actually. It's just that the very least perceptive picked up on the most blatantly obvious and called it "hamfisted" without even bothering to ask themselves why it was there and what it might mean, For example, here's Superman filling the role more commonly assigned to figures like Horus and Apollo. Given the desert setting, you decide which you find more appropriate.

I look on Clark's Day of the Dead rescue as both a call-back to his shared vision with Zod in MoS and an omen of sorts. an indication that he's leading humanity down the wrong path, much like what the talking heads on TV are discussing.

Pic related is the moment when he really starts to understand what it is he's been seeing - worship. plain and simple.

It's a fucking movie. It has to be judged on what it actually SHOWS.
You can make up some "deep" fan fiction in your head with every movie no matter how shitty.
>>
I think I've come to the conclusion regarding this movie...

Everyone has it all wrong. I could sit here and try to explain why you aren't understanding the movie, but it wouldn't work... Because words cannot describe this movie.

And isn't that what movies are for? To tell a story that can't be told through words?

Either you "get" this movie, and see it for what it is - an extremely well crafted, well thought out work of contemporary art... or you don't.

No, he's referring to a miniseries called "Kingdom Come" that came out back in the 90s.

>Why does that make him want to kill Superman?

To step into the role Superman is starting to fill in people's lives. Lex is already seen as a philanthropist, a "saint" if you will, but he wants more. He wants to be seen as the savior of mankind, even if he has to do it from a threat he created, even if he has to do it by proxy. He's willing to both drag down mankind's current savior as well as use him to eliminate the only other man on the planet who could conceivably fill that role in the same way as him.

Lex isn't seen as a savior. just a philanthropist.

Yeah, that's why people aren't reaching out to him like a holy relic, and painting his symbol on their roofs like some sort of updated Passover, huh?

Why do you think he's just hovering there? He's starting to realize the message he's sending to people, how his angle of attack is every bit as important as the end result. What message does it send if he rescues those people first? What about last?

The movie is about Batman fight Superman. On a deeper level, it's a film about what Snyder perceives as the internal struggle of a god learning to live among mortals, and struggle of mortals learning to accept the reality of gods. There certainly are attempts to dissect the concept of heroism, but they rarely go beyond the depth of browsing wikipedia articles about the subjects the film attempts to engage with and looking at classic examples of heroes in art. Basically, Snyder engages with his sources on a sophomoric level. Ostensibly, he is aware of the sources and what they are readily interpreted as, but because he has not devoted the appropriate resources to their study, he does not actually understand them. The result of this is that he is unable to adequately engage with them. Consider something like Milton's Paradise Lost. A quick look at the wikipedia page will tell you that Satan is the "hero" of the work, and if you only read the first 2 books, which happen to be the most exciting and visceral, you may come away with that same impression. But actually studying the work in the context of its creation and the philosophy of its author will reveal that Satan is merely designed to APPEAR as the hero. This is absolutely clear to anyone who as actually read the entire work.

Yes, there are allusions in Snyder's work, and yes they SEEM to display depth, but because Snyder doesn't understand the works he alludes to the work itself misses the mark.

If you get it, but don't actually have any understanding of the stuff the movie is trying to work with it seems like a masterpiece.
If you you "get it" and understand the stuff Snyder is trying to allude to it's returns to being a big dumb mess.

I think this is why you see so much confusion in its reception.

Fully grasping the allusions but understanding their context in the greater narrative and identifying the post-modern reappropriation of imagery as more than just a reference but as a form of dense visual communication unlike anything depicted in commercial cinema before. Here the film doesn't seem to be a masterpiece, it IS a masterpiece, going beyond mastery of developed skills but also innovative beyond comparison in the medium.

Part of what I like about this movie is all the little details. Like when Anatoli Knyazev kidnaps Lois this song is playing over the speakers in the lobby

Then later when he's holding Ma Kent captive he quotes the lyrics to her.

Also there's the reason why Lex kills Mercy which is so subtle you could almost miss it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC46ZLC33hw#t=73

Lex is basking in the glow of the Kryptonite and Mercy walks over to share in his glory, but when he sees her there he's shocked then angry that she thinks she's his partner. So the very next scene between them he's sending her to her death.

This is even more pathetic than the people that try to sell the Star Wars prequels as a master piece.

It's a post modern deconstruction of DCs heroes through the lens of post 9/11 America.

As a piece of art it's one of the most striking ever made in the genre.

At the same time it is extremely alienating to the average viewer as it is rather uncompromising in its vision.
>>
>>83609977
Also when people ask why Clark didn't try harder to convince Bruce that Lex was behind everything, it's because Clark doesn't believe that Bruce will listen to reason unless he's defeated. Remember what the wife of the murdered inmate tells him "A man like that words don't stop him, you know what stops him? A fist" of course this is setting up the twist that in the end it is words that stop him. SAVE MARTHA.

>None of you have managed to come up with any convincing argument though.

Here's your argument:

From the very first scene of Man of Steel, Snyder's subtly been sending the message that under the right circumstances, anything can become a god, even science. That's what Zod and the other Kryptonians worship - science, as embodied in their genetics program. People who don't stick to the program like Jor and Lara aren't just criminals, they're, in Zod's own words, heretics.

The message is that blind worship and deification are dangerous things. Zod can't see past his "religion." It's why co-existence with humanity isn't even an option for him. We have no place in the Codex, his "book" in other words. That "book" is part of Superman, too, in much the same way that for centuries in the West, your "book" was the Bible regardless of whether you ever set foot in a church or not.

Superman's "book," his people, his heritage, are all a part of who he is, but they don't define him, they don't dictate his role in the world. These movies are about him finding his place in the world, and this world reacting to him, the alien in our midst.

If you can't pick up on the immigrant vibes in that, there's really not much I can do to help you. It's all over both these movies, up to and including a media that focuses more on the controversy than the good, a manipulative elite that has a vested interest in propping him up as the boogeyman, and a monster that that same elite helps to birth whose first acts include lashing out at his creator and destroying a statue we earlier saw with "FALSE GOD" painted on it.

Odd are, Superman's "book" the Codex will be important again in JL, because of who the New Gods represent, and what they'd very much like to do with it and the army of brainwashed Kryptonian soldiers it could produce.

And this is just a particular angle. There's more besides this. If you don't find that interesting, frankly, I don't find *you* all that interesting.
>>
>>83610275

Could elaborate more? I'm loving your posts.

What can you say about Snyder consistent portray of the importance of couples, man and woman, to the development of a healthy human being and society in general.

You see that in MoS with Jor and Lara, Jonathan and Martha, Clark and Lois. You see it in BvS with Thomas and Martha, Jonathan and Martha, Clark and Lois, and Bruce and Diana. And there was even more of this in Wonder Woman with Diana and Steve.

>>
>>83610418
I think it's there to emphasize the importance of marriages, both metaphorical as well as literal - science and faith, East and West, god and man, pretty much the same emphasis that Lex makes in his speech. He presents all those "versus" as irreconcilable, because that's how he perceives them. It's the other two principals finding common ground that is his undoing, and all it took was one word.

>>
>>83610418
To elaborate further, the principals' arcs all concern them confronting (or running from) truths about themselves. All three have introductory scenes that begin with them lying to someone:

Clark lies to Lois about not caring what people are saying. This is shown to be a lie by how he's riveted to the television every time someone's on discussing him. The reason he's lying about not caring is because he's in a bit of denial about what he's let his actions become. They're not purely heroic. They're born out of the guilt he's been carrying around over the events we see in Man of Steel. He feels responsible, like anyone would, and he's doing his best to make up for it, but he can't admit that to other people because he hasn't yet admitted it to himself. Clark confronts this and starts making peace with it just by making the decision to show up for the hearings. He confronts it further in his "conversation" with Pa, and he places it firmly behind him when he returns and confronts Doomsday, the literal embodiment of his guilt, and the "ghost" of the only man he's ever killed.

I'm not that poster, but I'm reminded of an interview with Snyder that I read about the John Boorman film Excalibur, which BvS is full of references to.

>http://www.dga.org/Craft/DGAQ/All-Articles/1002-Summer-2010/Screening-Room-Zack-Snyder.aspx

>Snyder marvels at how Boorman is able to mix moods so effortlessly. After Arthur's success in battle earns him the the hand of Leondegrance's daughter Guinevere, and all is festive, Merlin unveils the prophecy that "a dear friend will betray you." But Arthur isn't paying attention, and Boorman uses Merlin's exasperation to play the moment for a laugh.
>"It's the idea that men are powerless," says Snyder. "All the things that make us men—love, hate—that's
our downfall, the thing that destroys us."

This is very relevant to BvS, where Clark's love of his family is both his greatest weakness, and what gives him the strength to try to do good in a corrupt world. Snyder points this out in his use of the phrase "She was my world" in a number of key scenes. When Clark is talking to Jonathan's ghost, his father tells him about his mother "She gave me faith that there's good in this world. she was my world." Before this we saw in Batman's vision a Superman driven to evil by grief (and the influence of Darkseid) who says to Batman "She was my world, and you took her from me" before ripping out Batman's heart, and finally when Superman accepts that he is a part of this world and gives his life to defeat Doomsday he says to Lois "This is my world, YOU are my world." So his love of his mother and Lois is both what gives him the strength to do what he must and what may one day destroy him.

Bruce lies to Alfred about what he's after.

The reason Bruce lies is because telling Alfred the truth would tip his hand. Alfred would know he was on a vendetta and Bruce probably knows that given enough time, Alfred *could* make him see reason. That's really the key to Bruce's character - the "man" is the reasoning, compassionate side of his nature, the "bat" is the irrational, vengeance-obsessed side that is dominating his character for most of the film. It's why he's so tunnel-visioned. He sees only the target for his grief and sees only the things that support that view of his "enemy."

Bruce forces his own confrontation with that truth about himself when he chooses to forge a spear instead of a more "impersonal" weapon such as a bullet. Bruce can't justify cold-blooded murder of a helpless opponent. We see him kill in many ways over the course of the film, but never face-to-face, never without a buffer, never without some means of distancing himself from the act. The only exceptions are in his vision of the future where we see him kill without hesitation both with guns as well as with his bare hands. That is his rock-bottom, something he never reaches in the film, where he has Clark at his mercy, but predictably balks at the commission of the act he can't justify,

It is in that moment that the "man" begins to reassert himself.

Lex lies to everybody,

With the possible exception of himself. Lex was pretty much the poster boy for fake news before we even properly had a word for it. Here we have a man with all the information - literally all of it, and yet he only uses it to further his own agenda, to season his lies with just enough truth to make them palatable.

Lex lies to the Senators about his intentions, he lies to Bruce through the media outlets under his control, pushing the narrative as Superman as an "alien menace," he lies both about *and* To Clark about his reasons for wanting people to see him with "blood on his hands,"

He would have had his confrontation with the truth via Senator Finch, among whose last words were "Now is a time for truth," but Lex has no interest in truth, only perception. He murders his truth in that bombing, and he murders his Mercy as well.
>>
It's ok. The narrative would have been better served if it didn't have to Jumpstart the rest of the dceu. Lois' subplot collects evidence of Lex's wrongdoing and conveniently being in the right place like MoS. Wonder Woman and Doomsday need not be there at all.

Maybe that way, there would have been time for all the cut scenes to be in the theatrical cut. But it essentially doubles down in everything MoS did, good and bad.

Why would I waste time analyzing something I didn't like? I don't need to be validated by you. The movie sucked, but the memes and salt are amazingly entertaining. Im glad the movie happened for that reason alone. If you want to think people who didn't like it didn't "get it" go ahead. If thats your argument, the movie was too deep or too smart for most people, than you either think very little of most people, which is your opinion of other people, which has nothing to do with the quality of film. Or, you're doing mental gymnastics to not admit that if the film failed to convey its intentions for most people. That then denotes the film failed. Blaming the audience and putting the burden on them to prove why its bad is completely backwards. They had no responsibility in its creation, they have to no connection to it once they dismiss it. its on you to accept the two possibilities. Either you think you're above most people and it's work of art that's better than most people or the movie failed. So pick one. Either everyone is an idiot, or one person is, which is it?

I really enjoyed Wonder Woman, but I don't for one instant believe it has the depth and complexity present in Snyder's unofficial trilogy. I was glad to see them doubling down on the "mythology" and magic, though.

It's weird to think of in these terms, but these movies live in a slightly different space than other recent cape films. Those are always presented in terms of a world that could conceivably be our own. These films take place in a world where our "myths" are their reality.

Zack Snyder has given up; the likes of countless fans and critics bestowing their hate upon him have taken their toll, as well as the life of his daughter.

Man of Steel was a failure--a film without a hero. A dour sci-fi fest devoid of hope and the heroic American values that inherently surround the Superman character. A movie afraid to portray the Boy Scout, a movie riddled with the childlike sensibilities of a man with a 200 million dollar budget.

Batman v Superman was the worst superhero film ever made--the worst because it failed on the most simplest of levels; the worst because it took the first cinematic outing between the two biggest pop culture figures and squandered it; their stamp on America being diluted and turned into this anti-heroic abomination filled to the utter brim with pompous quotes and nonsensical grimdark ideologies about "mythical" beings. A film that completely misses the mark, a film that is more concerned with rushing a cinematic universe rather than telling a story. A harsh, cold product.

Justice League will be the film that buries Snyder--it is the film that will expose him as a hack. Zachary forfeits his directing style in favor of a more family-friendly aesthetic that is ironically more in tune with that of Ant-Man; the very movie Snyder has ridiculed in the past. Snyder has turned into the people he used to mock, even going as far as handing the reigns of his creation to the competition; Joss Whedon. If you can't beat them, join them.

This is the end of ZackKino. The end of slo-mo scenes, biblical references, and inappropriate self-inserts of the director. The ride was entertaining, but now it's time to retire it. The bastardization of our favorite characters will now be wiped away and forgotten, this temporary grotesque age erased from our memories forever as we usher in a new age of DC.

Goodbye, Zack Snyder.

And Godspeed.

If you want an action movie then this is OK. A few of the Batman scenes are very good.

It is an awkward mess of a film that suffers from some jarring portrayals and discordant writing.

So as an all-around movie, it gets a C- but if you just want effects and action then perhaps a B+.

If you think DC makes good movies then by all means see this. You'll think it is the greatest.

No reason to be butthurt about it, man. We're not, or at least *I'm* not, trying to prop myself up as some sort of "super genius." As a matter of fact, I'd contend that the people who are really doing that are the guys who smugly declare it shit, then get their legs chopped off by the fans of the movie.

Cognitive dissonance will do that to you. You're getting defensive because someone has challenged your place in the grand scheme of things, made you maybe a little bit more aware of the fact that, just like the rest of us, maybe you're not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Then again, maybe you are. Admitting that maybe there's some merit to what's been discussed in this thread would go a long way toward showing which the case really is. Or you could just continue dismissing it all and clinging to the narrative where you're never wrong about anything ever, especially where this film is concerned.

Dude, do you really not get it? you don't get it. You probably never will, if you don't get it by now you sure as fuck cant expect someone you don't understand to be able to explain it to you. Like fuck, do you try to learn how to cook from some who speaks a different language than you? You admitted you don't get it, I aint here to help you get it, Im just reminding you that you're at least self aware of not connecting or being emphatic to other humans beings. Its your own fault at this point, no one else.

Yes jesus, he does have that rule but this nagging of yours is just fucking stubborn: He doesn't ASSASSINATE but to immobilize a dozen goons you can't hold back and worry they might hit their head a little too hard. You have to STOP them in the least lethal way possible. Well that way still can be fairly lethal.

huh? Sometimes that's all that Marvel can get right. Age of Ultron would have been pure piss if not for the good fight scenes.

No, Im really just frustrated when people say things like 1/4 and 2/3 because stupid as fuck. It just triggers me to see people make up numbers and fractions to back up their statements. Post actual raw numbers/sources, don't pull fractions of out your ass. I see it a lot in timothy treadwell threads, the grizzly man. Ive studied wildlife biology, know a lot about it....but oh do people always got say something like "10% of bear attacks result in an injury" or some shit without an actual information or... it's "10% in Canada" not alaska. I just hate that kind of number ass pulling attitude. If you sat down and calculate the critics, show your math or stop posting fake numbers. You can have different opinion, don't use fake facts to back up your opinion though.

I understood it perfectly well. I also see that they made a dog's breakfast out of the script. They were so focused on the meta-story that they forgot to make a quality film. These DC films from Snyder shock me. I have loved all of his previous movies.

MoS suffered from DC movie writing. 5.9/10

Yeah, if you're saying Terrio sat and dictated the visuals while Snyder drew up his own storyboards, you may be on to something. I doubt that's the case, though, as Snyder gave us this of his own accord. It's easily the single-most impactful image from all of Watchmen to me, and to the best of my recollection, it's no one's image but Snyder's.

oh the irony.


Also what do you need to prove to you it was Snyder? Can you prove it was in Terrio's script? Most scripts dont have visual references like that in them. "Now have him be stabbed just like his father was in the last one." Nah. Also they started shooting when Terrio did his re-writes.


Lastly, Snyder is even doing it across BvS and the JL trailer, pic related.

Ive read thousands of good and bad comics.
Also seen thousands of good and bad movies.

I recognize this as a bad movie and it has nothing to do with my taste in comics. I read Marvel AND DC. I have no allegiance. I just want good writing. So far, DC kicks ass in cartoons with the writing (mostly because they just lift from old good comics) and DC sucks bad in movies (but WW is pretty good)

BvS is just trash. I wish it wasn't but it is.

One of the best things about BvS is that it sheds light on one of the most misunderstood plot lines in super hero history:

Bruce Wayne doesn't turn into batman because he is traumatized due to his parents', his vengeance is not revenge. He wants to prove his father right. His father believed that there are good people in Gotham, that's why he risked taking his family for a stroll in the back alley after the opera instead of getting immediately in his car with security all around. If he didn't turn onto crime, he would have instead blamed his father for being irresponsible in a dangerous city. But Bruce want's to turn Gotham into what his father believed.

AHAHAHAAHAHAHAH this fucking proves you dont read comics. What recent cartoons have they lifted from old good comics? Judas Contract, which they completely changed for their DTV format? TDKR which was years ago? JL: War or Throne of Atlantis from the old old, so old, New 52?


Which comics were adapted the Justice League Action cartoons? Which comics did Young Justice adapt?

The only screen writers that do that are also directors. Most writers that do that know their visual ideas wont make it into the final version.


And again, no proof it was Terrio over Snyder.

Again you guys are fucking brainwashed by auteur theory. I blame Cahiers.

And I guess it's pointless to argue whether it was really Terrio given that we don't have access to his script, but I think it's far more likely a Harvard educated screenwriter was responsible for all the classical allusions and references than a guy who directed commercials before marrying his producer.

Because I actually love this movie. I like sharing things I've noticed with other fans. I like conjecturing on what we think will happen in the final installment in Snyder's unofficial trilogy.

I'm also very intrigued with the world they've set up - actual Themyscira, actual Atlantis, actual gods, climactic prehistoric wars, It's fascinating to me, because it's the first franchise that's treated the lore with respect. It's a lot like watching the comic book equivalent of Lord of the Rings brought to the big screen.

I used a review aggregator and I even qualified my statement by saying that the figures I was using were those who *cared* enough to provide their opinion.

Everyone used to use hella like 15 years ago, meaning its probably still popular in the Midwest of the America.

Also people in San Fagsico still use it, since it originated from there.

> Batman killing people without remorse was awful to watch with no context beyond he's been working for 20 years

You arent very bright are you? It made this out to be a bad thing, something Batman SHOULDNT have been doing. And he has done it in every other Batman movie with less context soo....

Something else I compare it to is being like a big-screen rendition of the comic series Planetary, only using DC characters, where the world has this whole secret history of real-life myth and just lurking beneath the surface.

Someone said something in one movie.

Then someone refuted those points to try and change a characters perspective in another movie.

I actually agree. If you cut out all of the filler and totally unneeded romantic subplot out, there's actually one solidly good film in there. From what I hear, there's even a fan edit out there somewhere that did exactly that.

I'm no huge Peter Jackson fanboy, but I legitimately felt sorry for him after hearing the circumstances under which those films were made.

You know what I always thought could have made it a far, FAR better film?

Making it a sort of framework story, told from the perspective of Bilbo reading the old Elf tales at Rivendell *between* The Hobbit and LotR, sort of a back and forth between him telling Gandalf his recollections of the trip to the Lonely Mountain and him learning Middle Earth's past for the history he was writing, with Gandalf growing more suspicious about how truthful Frodo was being about how the Ring came into his possession.

Okay I'm tired of seeing this meme so I'm just going to explain really fast what caused this and why it's not completely retarded

When someone has ptsd (like Bruce has) they can have flashbacks to the traumatic event (his parents murder) by anything related it.

Superman saying 'Martha' caused Bruce to flashback to the moment where his father was laying on the ground dying and compared superman to his father and realized that he was being just like Joe Chill (the person who murdered his parents)

This caused him to react in anger at that revelation because it's something he doesn't want to believe as he is forcing himself to think that he is doing the right thing murdering superman when deep down he knows he isn't. This anger can be seen in almost any individual when you tell them they're doing something they very actively state they don't like.

It was in that moment of anger where he was yelling who Martha was that Lois was given enough time to come up to him and tell him it was superman mother which gave superman enough breathing room and Batman a moment of reason to realize they were both bring manipulated by Lex.

The reason he still murders or violently maimes the people in the warehouse is because he hasn't had his full rejuvenation of hope and Superman was a special case (at least for the moment in which he needed to kill or imprison Lex.) His full rejuvenation happens after seeing Supermans sacrifice for mankind in killing Doomsday. That is what brings hope back to both him and wonder woman

For Christ's sake. No one DOESN'T GET THIS. Seriously. It's not going over anyone's head. It's just fucking stupid. That's all. It's not that people don't get it. It's just the most contrived, stupid bullshit.
>>
>>83616715
Let me give you something to think about:

I'm not even convinced Clark said "Martha" anymore. I think that's just how far gone Bruce was. He was going to hear whatever it took to stop him from going through with something he knew was wrong. Watch the scene again and watch how Clark reacts to him. Watch how when Lois shows up, Clark starts saying "mother," and Bruce still responds saying "Martha," and how Clark looks sort of confused by it.

I'm really starting to suspect that we're going to get a punchline to this in BvS.
