Then he gets back up like it's nothing more than a paper cut. These Kyrptonians are too powerful, and because of that there are no God damn stakes. People just smashing into things and things blowing up and everyone walking away unscathed, shyt is dull.
FOH here with this nonsense

I thought it was lame and stupid. I didn't really feel like there were any stakes, the two villains weren't really fleshed out (Did the big guy even have a name) so the conflict didn't really mean much to me. It looked cool but it was hard to be invested.

Seeing Superman punch a dude into a gigantic train and cause huge explosions was stupid. Hell, I thought it was stupid that he moved the fight into the middle of a populated city.

I was hoping they did more to show Superman try to limit property damage, casualties, and the like. You saw him save that soldier but that's it.

It's like the Transformer movie fights.

The worst thing about the movie is that it had potential. The idea of Clark growing into Superman but being flawed at it is interesting because I was hoping the next movie would show Superman using his brain to limit killing or civilian deaths with his other powers but BvS barely did that.

Best movie in the D.C. universe but meh. I put it up there with Thor 2. Cool moments but fairly forgettable.
Your logic is already flawed. MoS wasn't the best movie in DC, or you're one of those :francis: lames who shyts on batman begins and Dark knight

MoS was a great movie with amazing fight scenes, but insecure marvel stans can't handle that

Tell me how am I wrong? Zod and Superman literally went through a hundred and one buildings and all they did was look out of breath. In BVS Supes got hit by a NUKE... and he came back alive straight after.

shyt is too overpowered and that's why Superman isn't as popular anymore, people prefer more grounded heroes like Batman/Daredevil/Cap America etc etc

When I'm talking D.C. movie-verse , it's obvious that I'm talking about the shared universe. The Dark Knight is a top 2 comic book movie of all time (1, depending on my mood) and BB is horribly underrated.

The fight scenes in MoS were flashy but lacked emotional weight, characters you were invested in, actual stakes, and it did little to flesh out the characters in any meaningful way. Did Superman even have a bruise or look like he was hurt at alll after the fight?

'Shrug'

A good action scene to me isn't something that looks cool but something that advances the story, themes, or characterization in a meaningful way. The beginning action scene in something like Logan was an AMAZING action scene because it told so much about Logan, the tone of the movie, and characterizing the universe in the span of a few minutes.

Superman flies the genocidal opponent smack dab into the middle of a crowded IHOP and doesn't even try to get her out of there. He just tries to continue the fight until she throws him clean out the building. :mjlol:

That's some shyt I'd expect a drunk Hancock to do.

Technically the Kyrptonians arent dead the knowledge and dna is disseminated into his entire DNA so he could rebuild his race if he had the technology.. Remember?
:jbhmm:


Or if he nutted in 1000 woman of various cultures since that entire DNA would be in his superballs. Its a tough job but i think he could do

:mjgrin:

This logic is why Marvel got away with an angry Thor hitting Captain America's shield and Cap not being obliterated. Or Ironman being able to hold his own with Thor. Thor is God status but he's nerfed to make the situations plausible. But in this very thread y'all nikkas want to complain about heroes staying true to the source material. "This is the way Superman is supposed to be" Which would mean him being so powerful and able to withstand a nuke is exactly what you would expect. Except that's what your complaining about. But It's Gucci when Ant-man is reduced to a jokester, Thor is no where near as powerful as he's supposed to be, the Ancient One is portrayed by a fukking white woman, The Mandarin is a member of the Screen Actor's Guild, milly rocking is capable of beating a villain wielding a fukking Infinity Gem. Is it Oochie Wally or is it One Mic with y'all? Pick a stance and stay consistent. Other wise, don't expect to be taken seriously

that dumb logic can be applied to damn near any hero movie

"there were no stakes"

like they really gonna kill captain america or iron man in civil war :mjlol:

Yeah but when Daredevil is fighting some bad guys, it's intense because he's only human and there's always the chance he could die. Obviously he wouldn't, but he could always get shot, stabbed, beat up, injured to near death etc etc.

With someone like Superman or Hulk, there ain't much you can do outside of Kryptonite, even then it only weakens him not kills him. In fact how can you even kill Superman? Is he truly invincible? Because if a nuke and a Kyrptionian Blade (his supposed weakness) can't kill him, what can? :jbhmm:

That's dumb. You're assigning them that vulnerability based on humanness when it doesn't mean shyt in film or TV. Jackie Chan holding a baby is the most indestructible figure in history - does that mean that a fight scene with Jackie Chan is suddenly trash?

Theses are central characters, they're not going to die. Not halfway through a film at least.

if you wanted to argue TENSION, then sure. But that entire argument rests on the merits of the film and the writing which accompanies it. But if you wanted to evaluate every fight sequence by the TENSION it created, then you have to rework your entire train of thought. The Matrix's lobby scene was a gem. Was it trash because we all knew that Neo and Trinity were getting on that elevator up at the end?

Yal need to square your argument away because hating on the Smallville fight is really just objectively pointless.

Says the nikka who decided to talk about a movie he doesn't like. Y'all stun me with the lack of logic sometimes:francis:
I didn't say I didn't like the movie. Not that what you said makes any sense. Nor did I even talk about the movie. Ya'll lie way too much.

It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. Highly forgettable and Superman 2 did the storyline better. Batman vs Superman is highly underrated though. :ehh:

It didnt get a chance to explore all that because fans and critics that shared your point of ciew butchered it so we got a rush job cop buddy sequel in BVS instead of supes really owning up to his regret of having to kill zod to save those people.

He didnt move the fight to the city he was beat up and the enemies retreated or did u even watch that scene? The world engine was planted in the middle of the city what u expect him to say?

Time out lets move this back to my parents farm real quick too many folks out here. Those are the consequences of real i dont give a fukk villains coming to town tryin to take shyt over. In avengers it was unrealistic that the whole nyc was evacuated before the chitauri wrecked shyt
