Batman/Superman Dawn of Justice movie review thread - Page 12

*Shark_Blade* · 03-24-2016, 05:46 PM

Judging from rottentomatoes, the "professional" reviewers hated it, giving it 33% but the moviegoers gave it a 88% fresh.

Good
- Wonder Woman. Wow oh wow, she's a scene stealer. I didn't even know who she was when she's in normal human clothes on. But then Bruce shot an email to her with her battle outfit on. Absolutely love her.
- Superman killing the villain, again. Fanboys gonna cry how "oh noes Supes can't kill",but I love it. Enough of the naive boyscout routine, let Supermanget rid of the grim problem permanently. And he did, and I love it.

Bad
- Luthor. Whenever he speaks I imagined wanting to punch his face. His character is so grating and annoying. He's like Irving from Resident Evil 5, but more obnoxious. He's not even intimidating, such a disappointment.
- I kinda agree, the movie isn't as deep/complex as The Dark Knight. But I still enjoy it albeit a bit weak.
- The ending should've been much shorter to deliver the impact of Superman's death. They keep prolonging and milking it, for example Superman's mom giving Lois a ring from Clark. It's like "oh if he didn't die, he would've proposed to you, dear". Ugh, so corny.

7.5/10

But other than that DKR Batman used non-lethal means to dispatch most of his enemies.

I don't think Batman killed Grace (female mutant member), we don't see any actual wounds, especially no headshot wounds. And it would be completely jarring against Batman's no-kill rule throughout the whole book, especially when he can't finish off Joker, but only cripples him.

So he either did a intimidation shot and only hit the wall, scaring Grace to submission and the blood on the wall was Spot's blood after being riddled by bullets by the third Mutant member, or its Grace's blood after a non-lethal single shot.

No offense, but have you actually picked up a Superman comic, like, ever?

There's more to his character than just the "Boy Scout" label he's been given.

Huh, never thought of it like that before.

Sharkblade is a perma-troll wannabe. All it's posts are pointlessly contrary.

They released new photos of WW today. I'm not a fan of the orange/teal color, but I'm more and more interested in what they do with her.

*turtlefanforever* · 03-24-2016, 07:47 PM

Seeing this sunday. Not really hyped for it. But that'll likely make me enjoy it more.

But the 2nd trailer really f'd it up for me. All but coming and saying "ahh omg we have a commom enemy. We must be friends now and team up and never fight again."

Yes of course, I have loads. My favorite being Superman Earth One.

A sad retard like you will always call other people with different opinions as troll. Don't stray too far from your basement cage.

You are worth nothing to anyone.

*NinjaPug* · 03-24-2016, 09:01 PM

I didn't hate it but that was not a good movie. Very disappointing to have these characters with a ton of money behind it turn into that.

Time to get Snyder away from the franchise.

MoS was a much better movie. This was so disjointed and I'm still trying to figure out character motivations.

*chrisdude* · 03-24-2016, 09:06 PM

Big ol' pile of meh. If anything's great about it, it's the cast. The movie tries way to hard to be two or three movies in one. Mess is the word.

*TigerClaw* · 03-24-2016, 09:21 PM

I'm gonna see it tomorrow afternoon.

Keep it up. That Ban's coming quick fool.

*Spike Spiegel* · 03-24-2016, 09:32 PM

I'm headed to see this tomorrow--

I've got one of those "Movie Cash" vouchers, so it won't cost me more than $2, if that.

*NinjaPug* · 03-24-2016, 09:52 PM

The more I think about this movie the more frustrated I get with it. There are so many things from a story standpoint that just make no sense. They just happen to get the plot from Point A to Point B.

*Slade* · 03-24-2016, 09:57 PM

Honestly, f*ck what y'all say, I loved it.

Nah not really. If someone hates it they'll still hate it.

His talk with Luthor is what led him to that

Ah, now that seems like a connected train of thought on Bruce's part.

Don't remember much but he did say like something bad is coming? I must've blanked out every words coming out of Luthor's annoying mouth from my mind.
