"There was an air of defeat on set as if the fallout from the abysmal 'Batman v Superman' had sucked all the air out of the sails of DCEU. A tired, broken-looking Zack Snyder shambled around the London soundstage, positioning the aforementioned Justice League actors to shoot some big action setpiece with an unseen cgi threat. None of them can muster up a smile (blame another dark Snyder-Terrio script or the depressing atmosphere of the room?) as they grunt and growl their way through takes. All in all, I left London and the set of 'Justice League' with even less excitement for Warner Bros. DC movie slate than I thought humanly possible"

Steppenwolf looks grey because that's not actually him, that's a projection of him being made by the kryptonian ship. Like that "recent history of krypton" thing Jor El showed Clark in MoS. Also the mother boxes will likely take whatever form the user needs of them.
>>
>>83938684
They're not grey cubes. That was just the nanite hologram.
From the Cyborg clip they're black cubes that pulse/ping blue.

And It seemed grand to me. Enough at least.The way the score picked up....hit near the mark,

And honestly we don't even know if Snyder IS going to take on New Genesis. I hope he does though. Apokolips is the godddamn wolverine of the New Gods franchise.

You know what I hate about most DC Movie criticisms? They hate that it's dark, and always go on about how "DC MOVIES SHOULD BE FUN AND HAPPY LIKE MARVEL!"

No one complains when Marvel went on a fuckhuge directional shift for their characters or their universe, turning Marvel from the "using superheroes to talk about real life problems" brand into the Whedonfest. So why the fuck can't DC make movies that are darker without being slammed?

Taken on their own, without using the comics as a reference, DC movies are just fine, same as Marvel. But people are so fucking upset that Snyder took characters in different directions than what they wanted, and take it out on the films.

It's simple: Snyder's direction is stupid, and people don't like it.

Newspapers haven't reported it because they ran out of ink.

You can't have this shit both ways and expect people not to notice the contradictory bullshitt. Either based snyder gets it and shoves a metric fuckton of references into the movies or we're supposed to separate the comics and the movies.

Wrong. Everyone loved the Dark Knight trilogy and that's pretty dark.

The fact is Snyder's DC movies just suck. The dialogue is terrible, the plot is all over the place, character motivations are muddled at best and in some cases barely even there, and the attempted themes and character arcs are compromised by Snyder's inability to direct action scenes without egregious hyper-violence.

Marvel movies have a completely different problem. For the most part they're pretty indistinguishable tone and quality-wise, and they never try to be anything but a product they can pump out a few times a summer. But at least they're consistently ok movies, usually.

Marvel movies are an assembly line of consistently mediocre-to-good products. DC movies aim for greatness but fail miserably.

3.) Clark knew killing was wrong before he did it hence him begging Zod to stop. Being wrong doesn't mean it's unnessicary.

Evidently it's not for the majority of viewers, which means that regardless of our subjective perceptions of its quality, it's objectively bad for DC/WB's bottom line.

Snyder was hired to deliver a blockbuster film franchise, and has largely failed to do so despite being handed the keys to the two most iconic superheroes in the entire world.

>“I loved the character and it was the most fun I’ve ever had at playing a role, and most challenging, in a great way, and most rewarding.

>“The character I play is so unusual and complicated. As an actor he’s everything you’d want to do. It’s very exciting for me to play that role. And, secondarily, it’s interesting to be in these massive, high-profile movies, because all the stuff around you as an actor is really good. All the artists are really great, so you walk on to a set and it’s the most-detailed, comprehensive set, and as an actor it really fills in your imagination in a special way.

>“You’re also acting with incredible actors. In the last movie I had lots of scenes with Holly Hunter, who has been one of my favourite actors since I was young. This all exists because this movie is so massive that they attract so many talented people, even in smaller positions. It was really special to me.

In BvS Batman has a tidy little character arc where he starts off pretty brutal, branding criminals which is basically a death sentence for them in prison. Alfred calls him out on this and he's just like whatever, since it's not like he's actually killing them. At the end of the movie he decides not to brand Luthor, in effect also deciding not to kill him. A simple, neat little character arc...or it would be if the movie wasn't intercut with scenes where Batman fucking murders dozens of criminals in the Batmobile and blows up a dude with his own flamethrower. Any kind of arc Batman could've had is made moot since Snyder can't direct action scenes without people dying.

No, they are not. They are made to garner the widest audience possible. Do you think WB wants Snyder churning out auteur shit? No, they want sales to rival Marvel. They *want* blockbusters with mass appeal. He's not giving them that.

And you're right, the takes on the characters don't make the films bad. Superman not exchanging more than two lines with Lex fucking Luthor makes the film bad.

I liked MoS, though it was a bit too joyless for me, but come on, BvS was such a fucking mess. It's a movie which purports to be about the ideological clash between Superman, Batman, and Lex, and they barely talk to each other. Hell, Lex's whole plan didn't even make sense - he's going to end the threat of Superman by creating a more dangerous, totally uncontrollable Superman? Fucking really?

BvS was a hot mess, and WB must be absolutely furious with Snyder for taking what should be a guaranteed smash-hit tentpole franchise and dragging it through the mud.
>>
>>83940204
>No, they are not. They are made to garner the widest audience possible. Do you think WB wants Snyder churning out auteur shit?
Does WB want that?

No

But it's what Snyder has repeatedly done.

You can't look at BvS, theatrical or ultimate, and come to the conclusion it was made to appeal to the maximum audience possible, whatever WBs wished might have been.

That is the whole point of the movie. Certainly makes more sense than in Civil War when the government is pissed off over 70 something dead in a fucking alien invasion. The Avengers did better than literally any army on earth could, so why were they in the doghouse?
>>
>>83940265

If Snyder didn't understand what WB wanted out of these films, they would never have put him on them.

I'm a massive DC fanboy, but I'll never understand why people feel the need to defend BvS as this masterful work because it was panned by critics and audiences alike.

You make a movie revolving around the ideological conflict between Batman and Superman, and they barely have any direct exchange regarding the issue? You make Lex the villain, and the only time he even talks to Superman is a rote kidnapping speech? And let's not even pretend that Lex's Doomsday plan, or Superman's failure to lead off with "he has my mom", made any sense.

Face it, BvS wasn't deep - it was just a poorly made, boring mess of a film. God, I wish it were otherwise, but that's the truth.

The "government is wary of Superman because of Zod battle" plot point was not what I had a problem with. It's the fact that he can't seem to direct a single action scene without wanton death and destruction, besides maybe the Superman/Batman fight.

Also, you seem to be under the impression that I'm a "Marvel is better than DC" guy. I'm not. I don't think they handled that plot point well either. The Marvel movies have plenty of problems too, but their problems are completely different than DC's.

I don't hate Man of Steel and BvS just because they're "dark"

I hate them because for all the people on here who want to believe that they're some amazing piece of cinema and so much smarter than anything Marvel has ever done, they're still utterly fucking stupid movies that I can't help but find laughable.

Man of Steel alone has such amazing scenes like
>"YOU DICKSPLASH"
>Huh, neither of my guns worked, better take out a knife to take on this invincible alien woman with an expression that says "I still got this"
>The awful fucking zooming the characters do in fight scenes that look like shit
>"Welcome to the planet, Clark"
>Both characters smugly smile to themselves as if the writers are practically saying "Oh yeah, we wrote a winner there"

And then BvS has a really shitty version of Lex, the hilariously melodramatic "Martha" scene, and even more melodramatic scenes like when the bomb goes off and Superman just stares at the damage around him while pondering the evils of man.

Ben Afleck was pretty good, and the movie was shot pretty well I guess, but other than that I was bored or trying not to laugh at the movie.

He turned in a great performance in Man from UNCLE. Hopefully WB/Affleck damage control can pry Justice League from Snyder's touch of death in time to save the DCEU. Cavil really deserves better.

It's absolutely nuts that all hopes for the DC movieverse are riding on Suicide Squad at this point. Snyder was a mistake. Not because his movies were dark - Nolan's Batman was dark, but fantastic - but because they're just not good movies.

at this point justice league will be an even more critical failure than BvS. he's got good ideas but doesn't know how to make them pay off.

he isn't worth it and any success BvS had was because of it's titular characters everything he did only hurt the movie.

He's not saving anything, he's dragging the franchise under.

Nolan did everything you listed, but better, and in a manner which still managed to make an enjoyable movie for the mainstream audience.

BvS was a joyless, excruciating slog of a film with heroes that didn't talk to each other, and a villain whose plan didn't make sense.

Superman represents everything Lex hates (you know, that one being cannot be both all good and all powerful, which Superman is believed to be by a good part of the world).


Just like how Joker hates Batman because he is the pinnacle of order and Joker wants chaos. They both have villains motivated by their hate of the hero and what they represent.
For someone who claims to love the Nolan movies so much, you really didn't pay attention to them.
