stop, please fucking STOP. Just a heads up BvS is a shit movie. Do not fall for the meme, yes its well shot, but that's fucking it. It lacks substance, a good story. Basically every element required for a good movie. Again this is a warning DO NOT FALL FOR THE MEME. I repeat DO NOT FALL FOR THE MEME.

They'll exist for as long as capeshit is an entity in Hollywood. BvS is the flagship of the DCCU,The movie is at all times darker, more dramatic, and less fun than its marvel counterpart, making it the perfect antithesis to the MCU. This conflict creates a symbiosis...one can't exist without the other, and when one thread dies the other will shortly follow.

Was the Martha scene too complex for Reddit?

They keep complaining about "WHY DID IT STOP BATMAN FROM KILLING SUPERMAN" but it's pretty fucking obvious why

Synder even showed flashbacks in the exact same fucking scene to hammer it into the audiences head and they still didn't get it

You mean overrated shit ?

It's obvious and apparent facts treated as revelation. Yes of course Superman has a mother. Everyone on earth knows he has lived on earth his entire life. The Zod broadcast in MoS has made this clear.

It's "we're the same, you and I" taken to a ridiculous level. It's amateurish filmmaking and scriptwriting 101 mistaken for craft and high art.

it's definitely the 9/11 of our generation

True but I still think a nigh-invincible figure telling you to save your "mother" is reason enough to a mentally traumatised vigilante pause.

>>
>>70242244
Yes, but the phrasing makes no goddamn sense. Suddenly Superman is referring to his mother by her first name?

Symbolism and subtext don't work on their own or else that's all they are. They have to work within the context they are presented to be effective otherwise a line like "you have to save Martha" is just ham-handed amateur wordplay.
>>
>>70242244
Yeah...but the way they immediately become friends is VERY dumb
>>
>>70242507

Seemed to me like Supes was giving an identity, but Batman's foot made the Kent jumbled.

If that were the only reason, yes, that would be weak, but it's not the only reason. It's also his father's dying words. It was his father's example Bruce had been following most of his life - trying to be the hero and protector that his father tried but failed to be, so there's an element the whole Arthur/Ahab dichotomy in it.

Bruce is all armored up like a knight, pulling the whole "sword from the stone" bit with his k-spear, but at the moment of his victory, he realizes that the man he's beaten is far closer to the example his father's example than the obsessed hunter Bruce has let himself become. In that instant, Excalibur turns to Ahab's spear in his hands.

In disgust, self-loathing, and anger, he tosses the spear away.

Bruce will find a way to make a difference. He even stopped one of Doomsday's electrosplosions in the final battle.

Cool story bro, but why did he call her Martha instead of my mother

Giving what identity? Just the name Martha doesn't narrow it down. "he's going to kill Martha Kent" or "you have to save Martha Kent" would have made sense.

>>70243316
>>70243555
There's two ways to interpret the scene. One is that Batman is overcome with empathy upon the revelation that Superman has a mother. This doesn't work because it's obvious that Superman has a mother. This shouldn't be any sort of revelation.

The second way is that hearing "find him, save Martha" snaps Batman out of his rage through the possibility of reaching catharsis by saving his own mother. "Save Martha" is what he wishes he could do when he was a child, "Martha" was his father's last words, (we know this because the movie shows the Wayne's murder AGAIN during this scene). I agree that in this interpretation, Batman's response kind of makes sense. He has the pretty standard "what have I become?" reaction though I think the Arthur comparison is weak since he's the one who put the spear in the cement in the first place.

The reason this doesn't work is the ham-handed way the script gets Superman to say "Martha". "Luthor has my mother" or "he is going to kill Martha Kent" make sense in the context of that scene, but Superman only referring to his own mother by her first name strains credibility. Remember, when Zod threatened his mother in Mos, Superman managed to call her "My mother" while he was beating Zod through the cornfield. It's clear that in his mind, she is "mother" to him, not Martha. It's a shitty way to get to a decent enough payoff.

>>70243650
Because he knows Bruce's story by that point. It's the last chance he had, and it worked, if only to rattle him long enough for Lois to get in and act as a human shield, completing the mental image of him having become the cold-blooded killer behind the "gun."

Admittedly, that all works far, far better if the audience is shown Clark making that connection, but I hold out hope that Clark's deleted investigation reveals that detail.
>>
>>70244010
So he tried to manipulate Batman? Superman is beyond scummy
>>
Gonna rewatch Man of Steel tonight, but I have a feeling it's going to be just a shitty the second time around.
>>
>>70243848

I meant that he was saying Martha Kent
>>
>>70244186
Go torrent the movie. He wasn't saying Martha Kent.

"you're letting him kill Martha" and "find him, save Martha" were the lines. There was no attempt at Kent.
