JUSTICE LEAGUE SYMBOLISM

>God reaching out to Adam symbolism
>Horseman kills dragon symbolism
Why is this necessary? It's been established before that the JL as a team aren't gods. BvS was awash with this kind of symbolism as well.

>>85340697
They're certainly godlike

I unironically love this.

I don't know why you fools hate it, but I guess Ive always have had a soft spot for religious works of art and allusions to them.

>>85340739
So the criminals and the JL are similar in a lot of their methods?

As someone who doesn't get into this Marvel V DC crap, I find this symbolism interesting and enjoyable.

DC doing this stuff and Marvel doing the family-oriented stuff is great in my opinion. Better than having the same old shit.

More religious symbolism that literally means nothing while sacrificing the overall cohesiveness of the story. For how long will you fucks keep defending Synder. I think the Warner Bros execs saw him fucking up JUSTice league and they killed his daughter to get him to leave, and brought in fucking Whdeon to do some reshoots and editing to make the movie make sense.

>>85343536
haha the finn one and the last one are completely different.

>>85340746

I don't hate it. It's all just shit posting. I don't understand this board mentality. Even if Infinity War does better how does it kill DC? From what I can tell both universe seem popular.

I just LOVE when people try to find any kind of depth in this piece of shit. For fucks sake, none of it means anything if the plot is nonexistant. And i truly doubt these scenes have anything to do with religious art.

You can do that shit with any movie. ANY MOVIE. Hell, you can do that with any fucking thing, man.

Come on, name me a movie. Any piece of shit you can think of. I'll pick a shot from it that resembles some religious painting. Or some chinese painting if you fucking want.

You fags only get impressed because these things are pointed to you by faggots with too much time in their hands. Nice, subtle symbolism in movies has existed since the birth of cinema.

Direct symbolism like that pic ironically makes a movie more simpler and finite.
Once you "get" that it is the representation of that religious painting there's nothing else to it, simple and finite. No need for any rewatches or further analysis ever.

>>85345064
Look, I hate Snyder, but it's obvious this is on purpose. The problem is that it's the only thing Snyder knows how to do, reference previous works of art, but he doesn't know how to organically integrate them into the movie, nor to make all his reference make some sort of sense to add layers to the plot instead of getting in the way of it.
He's pretty much trying to look smart by quoting other people without processing those thoughts to make his own concepts. That's why his symbolism falls flat and has absolutely no effect on the audience, except those who are trying so hard to like the movies that they go out of their way to find every single reference.
That's not how symbolism is supposed to work, it's subconscious and works on you even if you don't notice. When people feel as apathethic towards a movie as they did with BvS and MoS, it's a pretty good sign you absolutely failed at symbolism. When symbolism in a movie works, like in Kubrick, people walk out feeling they got something, even if they don't quite understand it.

Because this is bastardization of religious allusions. There is no artistic aim behind this other than "look at me aren't I so deep, please see the movie in 3D". If you want serious religious allusions watch Tarkovsky, not a corporate diarrhea moneymakingscheme#965 like capeshit.

Knowledge bomb, dumbass.

The religious and mythological iconography aren't saying that they're gods. It's saying that they're resonating with these mythic, godly beings, becoming modern incarnations of them, echoes if you will, both in the minds of mankind as well as tapping into that same godly magic. The only exception to this is Superman and other Kryptonians, where they're perceived as gods but aren't heirs to that source of power. They're merely the catalysts for awakening magic in the world. It happened with Kara thousands of years ago, and it's happening again with Clark in the modern day.

Literally everything in the movies from the imagery all the way down to the expanding range and vividness of the color palette all ties back into this. Just because you're too dull to pick up on shit like this doesn't mean the rest of us are.

First off, it being warmer does not mean it's more colorful. Instead of everything being green or blue, he added some orange which is just the most basic complementary color scheme. It's still monotone and not colorful at all.

Krypton uses a richer palette than Earth, earth is desaturated and Nolan-esque, while still being very bright in terms of light

>BvS
Uses a color palette more similar to Krypton's opening scenes whenever Superman's around, reverts to desaturated Nolan-flavored scenes any time the action's centered around Bruce or Lex. Diana's scenes tend to utilize a warmer palette, too, specifically the museum scene, which, fittingly, centers around a tale regarding a myth. Even though the film is darker with many night scenes, the palette is broader throughout. The largest exception to this is Bruce's first scene, where he's at his most mythic and being perceived as some sort of demon and consequently gets the same broader, warmer palette.

You ever feel bad about letting someone you love down? When they die, you re-assess everything you've ever said and done, regardless if it affected them directly or not. You measure yourself up against what that person that loved you would have thought if they'd known all the thoughtless horrible shit you've ever done. If you're not a completely soulless psychopath, you torture yourself with it as part of your grieving process, and it forever alters the way you act.

Doubt away, but of the two of us, I'd wager I'm the only one who's already lost most of his older relatives, including my dad. You don't want to stock up on heartless shit like this. Take my advice and beat the rush to becoming a less shit human being.

Your explanation proves you wrong, idiot. It does resonate wih many moviegoers, that's why Snyder has such rabid following, and BvS is still discussed to this day by people. Unless you are implying that if you showed 2001 to a movie theater packed with modern audiences expecting to see a summer blockbuster they would actually enjoy it and not tear apart for being boring, empty, etc., in which case you are more of an idiot than I thought.

A few autistic retards here and on reddit do not really count. There's a reason why all of his movies bombed and got mixed to downright negative reviews. They do not resonate with anybody, and what it's worse, he's doing a popular genre and is completely unable to connect with the public.
With this, I'm not implying that all superhero movies should be risk free, comfort movies like Marvel's seem to be (I've only seen Civil War, and it was a cynical piece of garbage). I somewhat appreciate Snyder's attempts but he's just a lackluster director that doesn't know how to build a flowing narrative, nor get engaging performances from his actors and his visual style is monotone, dull and relies too much in references to previous imagery (which he uses in the most blunt, and shallow way and it's not creative at all about it).
I do not think BvS and MoS are shit because they're too serious, I think they're shit because they had shit scripts and a shit director that did nothing but highlight all their faults instead of improve on them, like an actually talented director would.
And having Whedon replace him in the DCEU is nothing but a monkey's paw wish to me, before anybody tries to shove their bullshit company wars on me.

>>85362581
Dude, I don't give a shit how you try to spin it. No matter what the budget, no movie that rakes in nearly 900 million dollars is a fucking bomb. The fact that it managed that feat uphill against the most relentless smear campaign I've ever seen only makes it that much more impressive.

Transformers and PotC get shit from the critics, too, but there doesn't tend to be a net-wide collection of articles cataloging their shortcomings, whether perceived or otherwise.

Dude, his DC movies made about half of his total box office in the opening weekend, which means it was all due to hype and marketing and once the movies came out, they dropped like a fucking rock. They had shit word of mouth, and people weren't going to watch it again. Just look at Wonder Woman: that movie connected with the audience so it didn't just get good reviews, but might end up making 4 times what it did in the opening weekend in the US, and will make about 70 million more despite opening to 60 million less in the domestic box office. And with a much lower budget, much less marketing and a much less bankable name like Wonder Woman compared to two of the three biggest superheroes ever.
If it wasn't for those huge opening weekends, his films would've been massive failures, just see how much they made in the following weeks. If anything, they didn't bomb thanks to WB's marketing team and not Snyder.

>>85353074

Snyder and WB took a pretty big fucking risk - they made a megabudget blockbuster comic book movie that is actually targeted at comic book fans instead of bandwagoning fanboys.

Frankly, I'm amazed it got made.

Your post would be 100% spot-on if you were talking about Watchmen, because that's not a normie-friendly comic. BATMAN and SUPERMAN fighting each other, however, is, and isn't a risk in the slightest.

>>85364019
And yet actual fans are still finding things in it better than a year after its release. If anything, it was *too* well-made for normies. What pisses me off is faggots endlessly spewing "it's shit" and then proceeding to blame the movie for them being too stupid and formula-indoctrinated to watch and appreciate a film that doesn't assume they're fucking retards.

Want to know a little secret? For all the pissing and moaning the fanboys do about it not being a shot-for-shot live-action DKR, if we'd gotten that, normies would have fucking despised that, too.

HOWEVER

>>85364199
I read pretty much every DC comic from the early 90s to the mid 2000s or so, plus a lot from before my time. MoS and BvS were definitely not made for me.

>>85364508
I'm a comic book fan, and I fucking love it.

>>85364411
I liked the Superman theme playing in a minor key. That told me pretty much all I needed to know. I'm forever hype for this.

>>85364677
See >>85364698

>>85364698
Nobody expected it to be a shot for shot live action DKR because only a very small portion of the movie's audience are even familiar with DKR, let alone actually read it.
If people would've liked the movie, the movie wouldn't had dropped the way it did worldwide. With its opening, it was on track to make over a billion and fell way short of that.
The problem isn't that it is or isn't formulaic, the problem is that it's a poorly written and directed movie.
And we still get the ocassional thread saying The Mummy was good, so that's not a good example of anything. We know /tv/ is full of contrarians willing to defend the undefensible in order to show they're not "normies".

Yeah? The problem isn't that people are literally too dumb to get things right in front of them? If that's the case, then why do I constantly see retards on here who actually believe that Lex thinks Superman is a god?

That's not the movie's fault, nor the script's. Its the audience's fault for assuming that since it's a comic book movie, it can't possibly be smart and the villain must reveal his dastardly plan to the hero because that's just how these things are done.

>>85365083
What a great fucking comic. Miller went off the deep end though.

>>85365853
He went off the deep end because he wrote a graphic novel detailing the perils of normalizing extreme violence and "gritty realism" in comics and maybe one person in a hundred got that. So what did he do? He went into satirical self-parody mode, pushing the envelope ever further in hopes that more people would get the joke. They didn't. They embraced it.

Almost exactly the same thing happened with Lobo.

We already know Snyder can't create anything interesting on his own, so he relies on reference to attempt to do so, most of the time not realizing that what made the original powerful it's completely missing from his reenactment.

At any rate, of course there's gonna be somebody to like the film. Even the shittiest films have their fans. But the fact is that the vast majority of people didn't like Snyder's films, that's why they have such shit performances on the box office, after having such auspicious opening weekends.

That the people behind it have said so and the fact that there is clearly a subversive intention behind the movie, which would knly work if you already have knowledge of who this characters are and the stories they've been in. The thing is many comic book fans don't like seeing their characters subverted, specially in the movie that is supposed to kick off the cinematic universe.
So that's why you have many comic books fans who hate it while at the same time the movie being made for comic book fans.

Exactly, and BvS had about 10 minutes of that in a near 3 hour movie. Kids won't hate it, they'll just get bored by it and move onto another movie.
And I'm neither jaded or cynical. Nice projection, again. I went with him again to see Wonder Woman and we both liked it. And our experience seems to reflect pretty much everyone else's, considering how these movies performed everywhere.

Nah, generally kids love it, just like any other superhero flick. it has enough Batman and Superman in it for them to come out satisfied, specially considering the third act is almost entirely one big action set piece, so they come out of the theater with that fresh in their minds.
WW didn't have a whole lot of action either, they don't see the difference between those movies, they are all just the same to them.

I'm just going by your posts, dude. Also you are an adult, your sense of wonder is not the same as a child, so yes, you are jaded just like most adults, and cyinical because you think no kid can enjoy BvS, when the fact is a lot of them certainly do.

I'm not, just look at the fucking numbers. If kids would've loved it, they would've gone to watch it again and again, like kids do, and the movies wouldn't had dropped like they did.
On the other hand, look at how Wonder Woman is performing. That is what happened when most people actually do like a film. They recommend it to others and go to watch it again with their kids. None of this happened with BvS, and that is an objective fact, backed up by actual numbers and not personal anecdotes.

>>85364666
You're right. Forced references don't make it faithful. Good thing that's not what ihey're doing. They pay homage to iconic CMB imagery while also honoring the spirit of the characters and their central themes, things that are absolutely lost on normies.

Donner gave us some wonderful Superman films back in the 70s that honor everything that was best in Superman's Silver Age. Snyder's given us films that capture the character's modern incarnation while honoring the history and spirit of the entirety of comic book history.

>>85367640
Look at the pic in >>85365083 and realize that Clark's thoughts are basically what happened in comics between the Golden and Silver ages, where comics characters like the Batman morphed from pulp vigilantes into family-friendly, "wholesome" entertainment in response to parent's groups and "morality police" like the CCA.

Realize that the Mutants represent the resurgence of comic book violence.

>>85381253
Also, take note that up until the iconic fight, all of Clark's violence is presented in the finest of Silver Age tradition. It's either only alluded to or shown in such a way that any casualties are incidental. He cracks battleships in half, he blows up anti-aircraft guns, but never once do we see him directly inflicting death on another person. That shit is not a coincidence.

Go ahead and take the test then, chickenshit. DChads honor strength, be it physical. Intellectual, or spiritual, though a mixture of all three is ideal.

You're trying to persuade 15 year old internet autistics that they're not deep. No force in the universe has ever been able to that except time itself. Just roll your eyes and move on while they keep trying to imagine that Zack Snyder of all fucking people, is some genius director because he can reproduce the composition of a comic book or a painting.

>>85340279
Based Zack

Marvelets are too brainlet to understand. DChad intellectuals all the way.

A terrible movie where nothing has consequences except at the very end

You're not even smart enough to understand what the title implies.

>no Kryptonian

The amount of information conveyed by these two words is staggering, and it goes a long way toward confirming what DChads have been saying ever since MoS.

>>85349280
There is no artistic aim behind this other than "look at me aren't I so deep, please see the movie in 3D".
seriously all you religophobes

if you truley dont see the allusions then you need to go back marty

>>85368378
i know right, how dare he use the comic books based on the characters hes portraying in his film, for refrence to story, and character what a fucking hack,

>>85393070
its a hint at black adam mate hinting to the shazam film, back in the day darksied and his gang were banged our by atlanteans and themascera and a kyrptonian and a lantern but the kyriptonian was actualy black adam before he went mental darkseid was unaware of what black adam was and coul;d only atribute such power to one of kyptonian origin or such that which live in orbit of a red sun, the person alfred talks to is actualy shazam/ billy and its similar to how ironman meets spiderman

This thread is great. Don't let it die.

No. The first 3 DCEU movies are written like dipshit fanfiction, even worse than some of the comics.

Can he make up his goddamn mind. Earlier DC movies were weak because of a weird gimmicks like that. On one side they try to be superhero movies for general audiences on the other Zack Snyder inserts the out of place symbolism. This things are not going well together either make the serious movie in which you are focused on your philosophical messages. Or make the blockuster movie about heroes for general audiences. You can't have both as presented in a Superman and BvS because this things are not blending well together.

Why try for a third time? I am afraid that this movie will reach the height of bizarre. On one hand normal marvel-like superhero things because studio wants to make money. On the other hand blatant and unclever symbolsim.

It's either Clark, Hal, or Kara.

Also, just the simple mention of Kryptonians implies they've encountered them before. It's a possible hint that the version of history both Zod and Jor-El reference in speaking with Clark isn't Krypton's true history, and their real reason for abandoning exploration was because of Darkseid.

>>85396559
No, you're just an idiot that needs spoonfeeding. Sucks to be you.

>>85374512
Man of Steel trailer was fucking beautiful.

I wish the movie focused more on outcast Clark.

>>85399818
I would love to one day get an extended cut of Man of Steel.

>>85400260
I want a director's commentary for MoS and BvS. Why won't Snyder do one? He did it for Watchmen.
