IT'S NOT 1938 ANYMORE
>>81548106
IT'S NOT!?
>yfw 1938 was 20 years ago
>>81548106
Here you can see the grandeur of Snyder's brilliance. You have a black man at the head of a company which would have jailed him in 1938. You have a woman as the star reporter who can subvert the patriarchal system. All the while the super "man" is relegated to sports columns and ither dredgery. He must experience the opression himself to better understand the world.
This of course combines with the existential crisis of modern journalism, as it wishes to have legitimacy in the day of perfidious blogs and childish treatises put out by new media. Such trash is for the lesser plebes in society. Newspapers are for those of us who strive higher.
Truly the highest quality Kino.

Not to mention that in '38 USA was in an economic crisis too, and Hollywood filmed movies that made the poor forget their sad condition. Therefore there was no time to be educated.

Bravo Snyder.
First of all, Clark's story is an opinion piece and should be in the opinions section.
Second, Clark presumably already has a section of the paper he works in, he should be doing work related to that.
Third, Batman has been around forever in Gotham, so presumably the Planet has already had plenty of articles on the subject, it's probably old news at this point even if it's all new to Clark.
Finally, how the fuck does Clark have this job anyway? As far as we know he never went to university for journalism or writing or anything. He's a cub reporter without a degree, he should be be grateful that he has a job not arguing with the fucking editor.
What happened to Lombard?! Did he get fired after MoS?
>>81548106
IT'S NOT PIZZA TIME ANYMORE
>>81549018
Much like comics, I don't think Snyder actually knows how a newsroom works. He just watched something with a newsroom in it and thinks that's enough
>"Clark you're on sports"
Like what? You're supposed to have specific people for that
>>81549204
Maybe he said "spots"
>>81549204
Can we be sure it's just Snyder who doesn't know how a newsroom works?
It could also be David S. Goyer. Chris Terrio and Ben Affleck also might not know this. At the very least, they overlooked these bits because they didn't have time to fix everything, and is evidence against their much-vaunted ability to fix the movie.
>>81549204
I love how we're holding this against Snyder like ANY depiction of a newsroom in comics, let alone any form of media, has ever been fucking accurate.
>>81549018
>how the fuck does Clark have this job anyway
Same way he got a job as a porter at a classified military project in the middle of nowhere despite being a hobo with no identity.
>>81548106
Tell me about it.
>>81550558
Out of everything I've seen, Spotlight and The Newsroom. Spotlight in particular reminded me of my own workplace, atmosphere-wise.
>>81549082
Should have stayed away from that intern pool

>born to play Perry White
Okay, buddy.
>>81550946
Yeah, this is America! I voted in Perry White, not Perry Black! Vote Grump!
>>81549018
>how the fuck does Clark have this job anyway?
He always keeps deadlines thanks to superspeed.
He always remembers everything thanks to super-memory.
And I think he's kinda hot.
>>81548543
It's when the first Superman comic was made.
>>81549082
He left to work with President Underwood.

Have a guess.

Jesus, Snyder.

Your cleverness is astonishing. I'm glad a met you. Have a good day, firend

I MEAN COME ON IT'S 2016 WE NEED A GRITTY AND DEPRESSING SUPERMAN LOL
Really Snyder?
>>81551747
Why doesn't Marvel make an All-Star Hyperion movie?
>>81548790
kek
>>81548106
It actually is 1938 in India right now. Seriously, go look it up.
I mean there really couldn't have been a worse year to deliver that line to a country that contains 17% of all the people on the planet.

>>81548790
>IT'S NOT PRE-CRISIS ANYMORE
Morpheus was the best part of this movie.
>>81549204
Snyder is just director, why the fuck does no one, even on /tv/, know that a Director isn't in charge of story, casting, marketing, etc. They're there to shoot the storyboard and convey the emotions.
>>81550860
Two movies out of thousands.
>>81548774
>swearing
this made me laugh way more than it should have
>>81551532
Because he fantasizes about paying them to fuck each other and let him watch
>>81548106
Clark, I'm sick of hearing about your action comics. We've all heard your actions filled comedic anecdotes.
>>81553402
You're pretty naive if you think the director's only job is to be a glorified camera-man. If we want to assume he didn't try alter the script with his own shit (and we know for a fact that he did since he's the one with a fixation for Excalibur and religious imagery), Snyder still had to approve things at the very least. Or do you think the producers were there breathing on his shoulders to make sure he wouldn't suggest the actors or Terrio to make the characters say something less retarded?
>>81553432
A movie and a show, to be exact, but yeah, you're not wrong.
>>81551532
Did he know who they were at that point? He knew who Clark was by the end, but did he know who both were from the start?
>>81548543
>Truly the highest quality Kino.
WHAT THE FUCK IS KINO?
>>81554161
Russian word for "movie"
>>81550558
True, but this was one of the worst. It wasn't just typically cheesy and bad, it was unusually terrible.
>>81554161
A movie that is pure art
>>81551342
But Clark isn't a reputed journalist. That's Lois Lane. All Clark is doing is covering the local football team for fucks sake.
>>81553402
The director is the single man was has the most influence on the final product of the film other than, in some cases, the producer. It seems clear to me based on interviews and the film itself that Snyder is largely responsible for the shit-show that is Batman v Superman, moreso than the writers or producers.
>>81548774
I want White's BBC
>>81554438
Remember when a young Hunter Thompson had to cover a sports event?
>>81554587
yeah, but he wasn't a reputed journalist until later in his career. nobody would be excited to meet pre-kentucky derby Thompson, because nobody knew who the fuck he was.
>>81551876
Wasn't the global panic made up/ blown out of proportion?
>>81554161
>>81554802
So, another /tv/ meme?
>>81554793
Yeah, it wasn't a huge panic like people believe, but it's a good story so the misconception's survived this long.
>>81553694
Yes. The movie all but states that Lex figured out Bruce being Batman before Zod arrived.
>>81548413
why are his hands bigger than his head.
>>81554802
Is TDK cinema or Cinéma?
Be use there's a huge distinction
>>81548106
Shouldn't the image be renamed Perry Black?
>Clark shows Perry his comic collection
>it's a cardboard box filled with dirty, old comics with bent spines, torn pages, etc.
>"Wow, Clark, those are some.."
>Perry looks directly into the camera
>"Defective Comics"
>the Seinfeld theme plays for an hour and 45 minutes.
>>81548869

He did it good though.
>'Crime wave in Gotham. In other news, water wet'.
>'It's a bullet, Lois, you shoot people with them'.
>>81548106
Weird thing is, 1938 Action Comics 1 was probably closer to Snyder Superman than he was to Silver Age Superman. The guy was pretty brutal.

I rather take this line than the shitty "Action Comics #1" recreation photograph they put in one scene.
>>81553694
He knew who they both were from the start. He was just being a smug ass in that scene
