Forget saving the energy, I'm saving money by not going to see this.
As for not liking DC movies....that's a load and a half. I'm a huge fan of every animated movie they've ever released. It's their live-action stuff that leaves me cold.

I'm glad you enjoyed a thing. It's fun to enjoy things.

Anyways, will be on my way to see it.

Yeah but lots of money doesn't make a movie good.
Don't be dumb. I know it's hard but try not to be.
You guys are so goddamn frustrating.

Then what do you call the many comic book fans I've talked that have also derided the movie?

This is what I mean when I think people are so consumed with trying to find things they don't like that the actually miss when the plot smacks you in the face. Clark was already upset over Batman branding criminals, someone even says, that brand is a death sentence in prison. Then Clark LITERALLY gets a package of photos of the criminal and each picture says "Judge?; Jury?; EXECUTIONOR?!" which makes Clark angry. So you don't know why Clark would show up? Because he's sick of how Batman is acting. He doesn't care why Batman is chasing guys, he doesn't know why, in that moment he is stopping him to tell him "ENOUGH, Your way is not the right way." So it's not "because reasons" as I keep reading.

Oh, and

Spoiler:

Nancy Grace

can **** off.

This was the worst part of the movie for me, I hate her.

Typical butthurt response from someone insecure of his own opinions that they have to lash out at the frighting notion people may not take to the movie because it's just not well structured.

I liked Man of Steel by the way, I think DC trump Marvel every time in regards to just about every aspect of the medium, so stop tar and feathering everyone just because you can't take it. I thought BVS was a half-baked mess. So do plenty of others. And they all have legit reasons.

PS, pick better reading material to start off with than Death of Superman and f*cking Knightfall. I grew up with those stories too, but there's way better than that.

Yeah, I'm not butthurt. I actually enjoy Marvel movies and DC movies, but I am smart enough to leave the comparisons alone. They are not the same. The characters are not the same, the worlds are not the same. When a lot of the criticism from MoS and BvS is "justified" because they say Marvel does it better, we like Marvel's happy, bright, fun, jokey tone! I want to puke. DC is not Marvel. DC is doing their own thing. If you didn't like MoS you shouldn't go see BvS because you won't like it. And there is nothing wrong with that, there is nothing wrong with saying "These movies aren't for me".

PS, I was like 11 years old, and those were the newest issues of the time. Can't go back to when I was 11 and pick something YOU think is better.

Is Amaranthus some sort of prototype version of Leo or something?

Leo said this was going to be the best comic book movie ever.

Well, I've seen it. It's awesome. Doesn't deserve 29% on Rotten Tomatoes at all.

[Amaranthus]

Stop confusing me with those anime icons!

Yes it does. And I say that as someone who found a lot to like.

I'm pretty sure Deadpool is like the only comic book movie that the comic book fans and general public agree is great. Comic book fans being disappointed is a common occurrence with these movies. The comic book fan community all have their version of these characters, and almost none of them get satisfied.

I was gonna change it, but then I realised that it's kinda cool that there's two Ryūko Matois.

Opinions.

[Amaranthus]

I love it when people happily join in on saying others are wrong for liking something they don't like. But when it happens to them they pull the opinion card.
This is TMNT 2014 all over again.

Spoiler:

Loved the Batman Forever reference.

I'm not saying anyone's wrong. Everyone else is free to think what they like.

Yep. TMNT 2014, The Force Awakens, Dawn of Justice. All dividing opinions. Bring on the Ghostbusters reboot!

And this makes me extremely happy. If there's one character who can bring people together, it's Deadpool.

I meant to say all over again.
As in the fight between people who liked it and didn't like it.

Ah, okay. I'm not touching that one. I've voiced my opinion and that's it. As for the rest of 'em...

Which is all something that could be sidestepped if people weren't jerks about the things they don't like.

If they don't like it, that's fine. Because I completely understand why some people won't like this movie. But at least try to have a rational conversation about it.

No kidding.

[NinjaPug]

Question for those that have seen it?

Spoiler:

When the Flash visits Bruce doesn't he tell him that Lois is the key and that he must save her? If he said Martha it would've made more sense in context of the film. I'm almost positive he said Lois which makes me think it could be a setup for JL

[turtlefanforever]

Wow. What a twist.

Batman crashes the batmobile and superman about to kill him with his eyes and robin comew out of no where and holds supermans arms behind his back. Superman is struggling to break free. Batman reaches into his back seat and pulls out a steel chair. He hits him over the head with it. The steel of steel contact. Superman falls to his knees. He's grasping at batmans legs trying to get up. Batman wraps his arm around his neck. DDT! DDT Right onto that very same steel chair. Superman is knocked out. Batman walks into the nearest building and starts climbing to the top. Robin has his hands behind his head grinding over supermans face like ravishing rick rude. Batman reaches the top of the building. Standing tall on the edge. Reaches both arms out like jeff hardy and jumps off the building. In the skull! The kryptonite bladed elbow of Batman right into the skull of superman. The bloody fricken carnage. It was too much. Kids in the audience were screaming.

Great movie
