What was this scene implying?
>>71628667
I think it's just nice imagery
Whenever the horses are shown onscreen serve as a parallel to Bruce's mental frame and metamorphosis, Bruce in this instance represents humanity as a whole.
The first time the horse is seen is inside the dust cloud in Metropolis, wandering aimlessly. Humanity has lost its way. This horse has a saddle, but no rider.
>The red capes are coming. You and your hearings, galloping through the streets to warn us. One if by land, two if by air.
Bruce feels the necessity to warn mankind that Superman is a threat, but remember that his judgement is clouded (dust cloud in Metropolis) so he doesn't realize that Clark isn't a real threat (yet).
During the Capitol bombing, a horse is shown standing on its hind legs, a signal of conflict and confrontation. Losing our way can lead to violence and tragedy, which is what happens to Bruce. The horse has a saddle but it's still thrashing with a policeman mounted on it, this scene is very reminiscent of a rider trying to domesticate a wild horse, which is also what Superman is trying to do with mankind: turn it into a force of good through cooperation and a bond of brotherhood.
Jonathan's story of drowning horses brings up the suffering and harm that Superman's birth brought upon mankind. By revealing himself the Kryptonians came to Earth, and Bruce's people died. A necessary evil that Clark and mankind have to learn to live with in order to move forward.
The final time it appears is during Clark's funeral, a two-horse carriage pulls Superman's casket. Mankind has been tamed at last and is ready to work together. Bruce is convinced that he needs to assemble the Justice League, and carry on Clark's legacy.

the horse was representative of the neighsayers that doubted affleck
Does he ride the horse? I assume if then it's reference to The Dark Knight Returns.
>>71628762
Bravo Snyder
>>71628667
Kino
>>71628762
huh that's actually a nice reading.
even forgot about costner's horses reference and the funeral ones
What was this scene implying?
He is the Dark Knight, A Knight has a horse but the horse is lost in the scene, showing how poverless he is
>>71628667
It's a reference to the Dark Knight Returns, but also narratively links the opening scene with Pa Kent's story about accidentally killing the horses, and thus Superman's guilt.
>>71628762
Based Snyder
>>71628762
There are more (talking about the bust not the senator)
>>71629029
>>71629029
lolwut
Just more plebeian hogwash aping Zhangke
>>71629029
I was just about to say. The senator counts in my opinion.
>>71628667
I can't see a picture of a horse in a vaguely dangerous looking environment without hearing "WAR HORSE" from the shitty SNL skit that came out when War Horse was playing.
I think I've seen 4 episodes in the last ten years and my brain clamps onto that particular moment for some reason.
IT'S MAKING ME CRAZY.
>>71628667
The film had no rider, hence why it was a mess.
>>71628762
Knowing Snyder, it was actually
>Batman rides a horse in TDKR, so... uh... I will put a lot of horses on scenes... uh... to represent that comic because... uh... that comic is cool and... uh... I love comics, you know
>>71629438
>this autist who thinks oration is a measure of intelligence.

>heh, this'll show him
Wasn't that just a nice homage to Tarkowski?
>>71629642
Thank God your visuals are so strong
>watching first mins of BvS
>that scene where Bruce saves the girl
>touches her chest
>mfw
>>71629666
quite a compliment ;)
>>71629668REAL LOLITA SHIT
>>71629438
this seems like the most logical explanation
you only need to listen the watchmen director's commentary to find out that Zack is a retard
well then there's a bunch of his interviews also
>>71629812
And yet they give him 450 million to fuck up the 3 more famous characthers in capeshit.
WB must be using Snyder movies for some kind of money laundry
>>71629812
>>71630181
Why do you faggots come into every BvS thread and shit it up?
>>71628762
Pure kinography.
Bravissimo Snyder.
>>71628773
underrated
>>71630254
calm down bucko I actually like the film
just dislike Snyder
>>71628773
Carlos!

Because secretly he's an extremely ass-blasted DC fanboy. Take note: I said fanboy, not fan.
Fanboy faggots like this sit around all day obsessing over "muh <hero>" like they're the only person on the planet that understands the characters and has a say, no a God-given right, to dictate the direction they're taken in by the people who actually do this shit for a living. It lets them cower inside the delusions of all the things they *could* do if given "the chance." With fanboy faggots it's always about those "chances," because by deluding themselves into believing these chances originate from anywhere besides them getting off their fat, complacent asses and applying themselves, it's not their fault that they're just gutless losers spouting bile and vitriol behind the veil of anonymity a site like this provides for them.
This guy's deep in the closet with his fanboy faggotry, because this just goes so far beyond what a person who just wasn't a fan of the IPs could muster. If I were solely a Marvel fan, I doubt I could muster much beyond casual indifference for DC's properties. No, this undiscovered country of asspain can only come from someone who feels deeply betrayed, and is such an entitled little fuck about it that this whole board must tolerate daily infusions of his impotent, puerile rage.
>>71630582
Hehe. Pasta.
>>71630308
unironically correct.
it's pretty amazing that one man directed the three greatest capefilms ever made.
>>71630308
He's completely correct
>them arms
what the fuck
>>71629088
I can see how this fits with >>71628762 's reading - the special forces guys made the very human decision to go in and rescue Lois rather than let the entire compound get taken out by the drone.
>>71628762
>>71628762
>>71628762
Nice try but no
>>71632603
you convinced me a im a #marvel now
>>71628934
That Batman did nothing wrong
>>71628762
>>71632682
You don't have to be any please. Nolan and raimi is enough
Batman is Nietczhe
Superman is the ubermensch
that is batman's turin horse.
google tthat
BRAVO SNYDER
>>71632754
>nolan and raimi
:^)
>>71632788
Nice bait
>>71628762
Holy shit Snyder confirmed for King Kinographer. How can the Russos even compete?
>>71632850
Comic book shit will always be flicks
>>71632894
you've convinced me i'm a 14 year old now
>>71632788
Batman has gone his whole life thinking he is the perfect creature.
Superman, something he aspires to be but so casually comes through and shatters all his illusions of sense
He sees the damage the universe can do onto the world, just like Nietzche sees what cruelty can be done even to a horse.
Do i have to break it down for you?
Someone roll spiderman and giantman scene
>>71633579
yes
From a literal sense, it implies that the rider is dead or wounded, so it's a part of the destruction in Metropolis
>>71628667
I don't know if you guys are ready for this little tidbit of information but that horse's name is actually Martha
>>71632859
>How can the Russos even compete?
By leaving Marvel to become Snyder apostles.
>>71628762
>>71637060
>that hairline
JUST
>>71628773
hmm...
>>71629029
shit, even Holly is ripped
why is Gadot the only one that couldn't?
>>71637060
great scene
>>71628667
wait when did this shit come out?
Where is it?
>>71639168
These posts aggravate me something fierce, it's one thing to not know when it came out but FFS don't act like you don't have a regular go to place for torrents you could check.
Unless you're a streamfag
>>71639257
I'm afraid of da police :(
It's a visual reference to the horses Pa Kent was talking about in his ghost talk with Clark. The horses only show up when Clark tries to do the right thing, but the unintended consequences haunt him.
Really simple stuff here.
>>71628667
It's a metaphor to how much of an ass Snyder is for being so pretentious in a movie about a guy flying around in his underwear and a guy running around dressed like a bat.
>>71637060
Why did he regenerate so fast after being nuked but before when he gets his face scratched with the spear it stays there for like 20 minutes? Is it because hes closer to the sun?
>>71640025
Yes, with the krpyto gas out of his system and being far enough from the spear his powers began to return, in space with no filtering ozone it was like a nice big dose that revived him.
>>71639578
Oh so its a vague set-up to a vague dream monologue from 2 hours later where Pa Kent's Force ghost mentions horses.
This makes the movie good apparently.
>>71640131
I like how it got rid of the scar
>>71640817
>i need everything spoonfed to me.
>i hate ambiguity and nuance.
>i hate david lynch and terrance malick films too.
>>71628762
How do people even read into a scene like that.
To me it was just some cops horse that got loose because cop either fucked off, was dead or what ever the horse was tethered to was destroyed.
Do you require a certain level of insanity to come up with these versions of 'symbolism'. Symbolism only gets the point across if your audience is familiar with the concepts you want to deliver in the first place.
It's not 'humanity is lost' to me, it's a cops horse, a fucking set piece.
>>71628762
How did we get Terrence fucking Malick tier filmmaking for what should be just popcorn?
>>71640992
That's because you're a pleb
>>71628667
batman is turning into horseman.
>>71637060
Why couldn't he regenerate his hairline as fast as he regenerated his body?
