Well shit...

I guess it really was literally 2DEEP for Marvel fans and critics.

Goddamn it. I don't know how I feel about this.

/tv/ autists figured it out straight away.

Also, Kevin Smith is a suck-up who genuinely didn't like the film but recants so he doesn't piss off WB.
>>
>>67800736

The Studio, he obviously upset his paymasters
>>
>>67800696
He's saving face. He's owned by WB since he is too closely tied to them through their marketing.

He's not just a random podcaster, and he can never be. Once you become a director, they own you, and control what you say.

I really wish the industry would stop pretending Kevin Smith has any sway with anyone under 35

If ask your average 18 year old who Kevin Smith is they'll stare at you blankly
>>
He's right. The film is deep and intellectual. Your average audience member isn't going to get it. For us with a brain, who can actually appreciate it, Batman vs Superman is a work of art, a true masterpiece of cinema. It is, by definition, capekino.
>>
I'm guessing he got a call telling him he would never work at DC again if he didn't apologize.
>>
>>67800696
Marvel must have bribed Kevin Smith to shit on BvS and then take back what he said so it looked like WB is the one bribing people. It's the only thing that makes sense
>>
>>67800696
Nah man, Kevin Smith just realized that Warner Bros maybe wouldn't let him direct any more episodes of The Flash if he kept bad mouthing their latest blockbuster.

The movie truly is awful.

Like if we even take just the batman from the movie... the memes... of batfleck sucking. Everyone compared casting affleck as a batman to Ledger being casted as a Joker but without a chance to turning it out like in his case. Everyone though that he will be a daredevil skinny lanklet nubatman. But he nailed the rough, brawler batman and even more so the Bruce character. He overperfomed so hard people well left so dumbfucked and pretended like they never doubted in afleck in the first place. But everyone did make fun of him.

This is something I will never understand.

Ive read a few comics/graphic novels in my life when I was a kid. I used to like spiderman and batman.

Now Im 28 and havent read a comic in decades, yet I loved BvS.

I hated every single spiderman movie ever made, but BvS was incredibly entertaining.

If you dont like it then say so.

Dont pretend like your dislike makes everyone who disagrees with you a "dc kek".

I honestly think that /tv/ is literally worse than /pol/.

It's so dense, there are so many things going on in each scene. Because Lex is a funnier character than we've even had before, hopefully it will work.
The plot was a vehicle for the visuals. The innocence and brilliance of youthful perception. A love letter to our world and what is in it.

His atrocious and tasteless hack job manages to carry one entire theme, one might even say the main theme, in an exclusively visual manner.

The only person besides the protagonist's inner circle who views him as a human being for the entirety of the plot is the principle villain, and he never says so aloud, although the entirety of his plan working depends on him being right and the protagonist acting precisely as the villain would given the same dilemma.

The plot contains unresolved mysteries that allude to events both before and after the plot of the film, and they're presented in a way that feels organic and integral to the action.

But yeah, hackpiece for sure.

>>
>>67805153
Here's some complexity for you. What all the hack critics took to be "heavy-handed religious imagery" entirely missed the point that the imagery isn't because the audience is supposed to perceive Superman as a god. It's to remind us that practically every character in the movie does, and he has to fight uphill just to be taken as one of us.

The villain never once states his true intentions and they can only be gleaned when one views what he has versus what he wants.

The foil(the Batman) only comes to perceive how far he's fallen when he finally recognizes himself in his perceived foe. His redemption arc begins in that moment.

Kevin Smith, the perpetrator of such trash as Yoga Hosers, Cop Out, Tusk and Red State, as well as such personal atrocities on the Batman franchise as Cacophony, has the balls to criticize another interpretation of Batman.

>The villain never once states his true intentions and they can only be gleaned when one views what he has versus what he wants.

He apparently intends to control one of the two invulnerable aliens he has no means of fighting.

He can threaten to kill Superman's family, and hope this is one of those rare time Supes can't hear them screaming from the other side of the planet and instantly fly there and save them. Because apparently Superman isn't very good at his job.

Or he can awaken Zombie Zod and... well, there really is no mastermind plan behind this, is there? Just rolling the dice and hoping for the best, because even if the monster doesn't destroy the world, powerful people know Lex is the one with access to the materials to make it.

So tell me more about his master plan.

I just saw it, and the action, soundtrack, cinematography, and overall style was fucking fantastic but the script was an absolute tragedy. Events bounced around for no reason at all, they tried way, way too much at once to the point that it makes Spider-Man 3 look reserved and subtle, and Jesse Eisenberg gave the worst preformance I have ever seen in a super hero movie.

This whole Martha scene makes sense when explained on paper, but the execution was garbage.

This is bad. I am not a Kevin Smith hater, but when he starts saying movies are good just because they have some background character from DC comics in them, this sends a bad message to the movie studio. It sends the message that all they need to do is include something from the comics never seen before,, and fans will be ok with a mediocre story.

NOT good. This is why fanboys having their opinions on capefilm movies is bad, for dumb reasons like this that have nothing to do with the quality of the storytelling in the movie.

>I haven't read any superhero comics since I finished with Watchmen. I hate superheroes. I think they're abominations. They don't mean what they used to mean. They were originally in the hands of writers who would actively expand the imagination of their nine- to 13-year-old audience. That was completely what they were meant to do and they were doing it excellently. These days, superhero comics think the audience is certainly not nine to 13, it's nothing to do with them. It's an audience largely of 30-, 40-, 50-, 60-year old men, usually men. Someone came up with the term graphic novel. These readers latched on to it; they were simply interested in a way that could validate their continued love of Green Lantern or Spider-Man without appearing in some way emotionally subnormal. This is a significant rump of the superhero-addicted, mainstream-addicted audience. I don't think the superhero stands for anything good. I think it's a rather alarming sign if we've got audiences of adults going to see the Avengers movie and delighting in concepts and characters meant to entertain the 12-year-old boys of the 1950s.

I'll believe you there, I never watched that show. It being in the world of TV I believe it's mostly shilling. Podcast wise though he's usually nicer to Marvel stuff. He ripped TDKR and MoS apart repeatedly but never stopped jerking off over Avengers.

He sees himself as this outsider to the industry (it's his excuse when he shits out terrible movies) so his opinions often have to seem so out there and beyond what anyone else is thinking. Even when he has to twist reality to make it seem like he's a misunderstood genius. I don't believe it's shilling, he's just stroking his own ego.

And for all his love of Batman, all he talks about is The Dark Knight Returns. Has no idea what's going on with the character.
