I think this is pretty much the only real example.

Oh, and maybe Family Matters

- Charles Roven isn't the only one leaving the DCEU as producer as Deborah Snyder will also be leaving after Justice League.
- There were some changes done to the Justice League script. Zack Snyder added nightmare sequences in the Batman v. Superman script that weren't written by Chris Terrio and he planned on doing nightmare sequences for all of the Justice League members but the studio put the brakes on those plans. However, there will be a scene that ties into Batman's nightmare in the film. The nightmare sequences alone would have cost an extra 35...

What the fuck?
>>70086296
Channing Tatum should be Shazam, give up on Gambit dumbo
Just finished season one of Jessica Jones and I loved it. What do you think of it, /tv/?
Didn't think I'd like it much, but I did.
Mediocre with an incredibly unlikeable protag

Smarter and more philosophical than BvS and Synder could ever be

As usual Mel says nothing but truth. How can anyone hate this guy? I mean unless they're a hook nosed Christ killer.
>>70082381
It's true. The mid-budget risky film is all but dead in American cinema.

goddamn young Mel is so fucking hot

>On paper, this season’s big superhero action films — “Captain America: Civil War” and “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” — from the rival studios Disney and Warner Bros. could almost be the same movie, so similar are their plots, action sequences and allusions to heavyweight themes of topical interest.

>At one level, the explanation for the outcome is simple: “Captain America” is a much better movie. After a marathon of superhero moviegoing in Times Square this week, I can attest to that.
>But you don’t need to take my word for it, or that of the established critics who praised “Captain America” and panned “Batman v Superman.” After a big opening weekend, attendance at “Batman v Superman” plunged, suggesting bad word of mouth. On...

Wow two massive flops . Why do they keep on making cape films??
Both these movies had to gross 13 billion each to just break even

>Marvel nu-males hate Snyder
I'm not surprised. After all, their idols are Peyton Reed and Joss Whedon.
Seeing an alpha male like Zack Snyder causes them to remember how they were bullied by an alpha male and uncomfortable and lash out the only way they know how -impotently typing out hateful words on a Japanese jpeg board. Some, like Ant-Man director Peyton Reed when shown a statement from a capeflick rumor monger saying "DC directors can physically beat up Marvel directors," choose to withdraw into safe spaces instead. It's little wonder why /tv/ connects with Marvel more.
Snyder directs in sweatpants and Under Armour wristbands.
If that's not badass I don't know what is. Nerds can't stand that an alpha auteur is in control of their products, and he's elevating them to heights their puny brains can't comprehend. They can't stand that someone who appears on the outside as a manchild with a comic book fetish, is pushing the medium further than they thought possible.
Snyder, Affleck, and Cavill get the bitches and gays all juicy. They are just ripe with raw sexual energy. This offends the virginal fanboi. MoS and BvS deal with emotional issues and belief systems in a mature way. This doubly offends the fanboi, who is stuck in perpetual adolescence. They can't process or register mature emotions. And people hate what they don't understand.
P.S. The NY Times has lost credibility for years now, and will do anything for clickbait trending articles. Right now they're openly supporting the 'baby men" argument of why people hate Ghostbusters.
So, Nolan has started shooting Dunkirk.

Hyped?
will this be the best movie of 2017 and blow away the capeshit?
>>70080628
Vimy Ridge is more interesting.
also, Dozens of set photos have been released.
>>70080645
Fuck off Canada
Why are they so perfect?

No black in the cast+ pure blonde shieldmaiden.

>Gimli only on one poster
>Legolas and Liv Tyler have two
That's some serious bullshit
>>70079876
yeah. I watch them at least once a year. It's glorious.
Didn't see a thread for the official best film of 2017
Is ;_; going to be in this?
Is pic related the MC
>>70079628
No
Who else here was extremely underwhelmed by the white walker back story reveal? I mean, yeah it makes sense and it's not TERRIBLE but man, there are literally so many places they could have taken it. Why not have made them a completely different race with culture and beliefs completely alien to the people of westeros? Why not have them want to come back because something is out of balance? So many possibilities they passed up.
it's pretty fucking retarded
>man are cutting down the forests, we must fight them
>yes let us create a magical undead race incompatible with nearly all forms of life as they'll raze the lands into a freezing wasteland and turn the living into their creepy collective - that'll definitely help us!
They destroyed all the mystery this last eppisode. Also the minions just tuned into walking dead zombies. This show has jumped the shark after stannis death.
>>70077324
I would have much preferred that it be left unexplained. It just demystifies the story, and makes it less interesting. They went from the mysterious unstoppable personification of winter and death itself, to some bioweapon run amok. I'm not mad about it, but there wasn't really a feasible scenario where I wouldn't have come away underwhelmed.
See also: Prometheus, the Star Wars prequels, Mass Effect 3's ending, or just about any other prequel that I didn't mention.

She doesn't look too bad for the part. Probably could be worse. I just don't want Rodriguez bringing the story down to grindhouse level cheesiness. There's a lot of pathos emitted from the characters in the manga that's probably going to be tossed out the window in this.
discount MEW.

Since when is downloading features legal in any country?
I've illegally downloaded terabytes of everything from movies to expensive software with no sort of precautions, and have never received so much as an email
>X-Men Days of Future Past 92% on Rotten Tomatoes: "I liked it because it wasn't completely forgettable like the Marvel movies!"
>X-Men Apocalypse 49% on Rotten Tomatoes: "I didn't like it because it wasn't enough like the Marvel movies!"
The fuck?
Bump, seriously what happened? Why should a good movie suffer because of Marvel fatigue?
Why should a movie be criticized about being "formulaic" while the Marvel capeshit gets high 80s and 90s on RT?
>>70075186
Are those retarded opinions of the same critic, or what are you trying to say?
Personally, I loved Apocalypse, but I get that it wasn't as strong and well paced as DoFP.
Also, DoFP had a LOT going on, trying to reboot the franchise at the same time of dealing with political issues as well as annihilation. It kinda makes the strongest villain pale in comparison, because that was the only thing motivating this movie. Maybe human compassion and selfishness, but that was very subtle.
What Apocalypse...
