Most people talking shit about the movie simply don't get what Snyder was trying to do.
Snyder is attempting to equate superheroes to mythological beings, making parallels between the events in the movie and works of universal literature, greek myths, iconic religious figures and arthuric legends.
Every single one of them serves a different purpose.
Moby Dick illustrates Batman's obsession and the loss of himself that ensues.
Luthor comparing Supes with Prometheus illustrates his allegorical fight against Olympus and his comparison of Zod with Icarus mirrors Zod's exhorbitant ambition.
Arthuric imagery deals with the entire tragedy aspect, the rupture of a pact shatters the lives of those involves and precipitates their death, moral (BW) and literal (CK), but since at the end they are reborn in those aspects that's when religious imagery comes in.
Religious imagery is both used to convey how timeless these ideals behind the superheroes are, and to establish a dissonance between Clark by himself and clark as seen by others, it is also used to convey transformation, rebirth and absolution.
Also people complaining about Clark picking up the spear at the end are stupid. This is the one and only truly selfless and heroic decision he takes during the course of the movie, the harpoon he takes being his only weakness actually adds another dimension to what's happening, he's living up to his image.
I noticed a neat visual reference to the dissonance between ideal superman and actual superman in the shot when you have Supe's monument on the left, Superman on the right and doomsday in the middle, the framing makes Clark look minuscule in comparison to both.

MoS = Birth
BvS = Death
Justice League = Ressurection
Quite literally, of both superman and the DCEU
Goddamn give it a rest already.
And, much like your post, it's still a giant mess of half-baked ideas poorly presented.
why couldn't Captain America lift Thor's hammer in AoU

Does box office really matter?
even with 12 movies, MCU's average BO is slightly above DCEU's.
Why does /tv/ always bring up box office to talk about a movie's(not just capeshit) success?
>>68705195
y are dccucks still going at it?
>>68705195
This is interesting.
I wonder if the difference is in the marketing budget. I guess they need more money for DCU.

Has Eddison Tollett been dispatched by Ser Davos to enlist the service of The Twenty Good Men?
Would they even be willing to fight on behalf of the now deceased Jon Snow?
Will their accomplished mettle on the battlefield be enough to turn the tide in favor of Jon's fledgling supporters against the Night's Watch?
>>68704720
they're twenty GOOD men, anon.
they only work for morally upstanding individuals like Ramsay Bolton, not exiled thieves and rapists guarding a wall at the ass end of nowhere.
>>68704720
Kind of obvious really. I feel as though they should simply rename the show to: "The Adventures of The Twenty Good Men" at this point.
The Night's Watch would be so fucked. Ditto for those pussy White Walkers.

Wouldn't it have been better if Batman threw Zod's body at him and he said

Jeremy Irons is an improvement Michael Caine's feeble Alfred. How does he stack up against other Alfreds in tv & film?
Oi, ya got an Alfred thread goin on here, do ya m8?
Both were pretty good to be honest. Caine had more fatherly moments, whereas it felt like Irons was always snarky, I guess?
He was also reasonable that one time saying Supes was not their enemy, but that was it.
