My thing is,I love the film. Absolutely love it.
But,I understand why some would hate it. It's a polarizing film. Zack is a polarizing director. He makes choices. He is an auteur and puts his stamp on it. It's going to rub people the wrong way.
I do not,and will never understand the people that can't just say hey its not for me,he's not for me. I don't get how anyone who likes film can say he is a hack or a bad director. The man is extremely talented. He has a gift for visuals.
BVS is a film that is absolutely beautiful to look at,the music is top notch,every frame is drenched in style and atmosphere. Side by side compared to the helicarrier scenes in avengers is just night and day between what a talented director is and someone who doesn't really know what he is doing behind the camera.
But,it's taking iconic characters that people grew up with,that have an unhealthy obsession with and refuse to have them portrayed differently and doing something different with them.
I like films that challenge the status quo and aren't meant to just be generic crowd pleasers aimed at pleasing the masses . BVS is that.
People wanted to shut there brain off,see the characters how they want them to be and have a safe happy film.
The reaction to BVS was one of emotion,not reason. And it continues today and will continue for some time.
It's a film like MOS that invokes passion,from both those that hate it and those that love it.
Personally, I'll take that over generic comic book film #368 that I'll forget 5 minutes after its over.
Hate or love,both films, they stick with the viewers. There's so many scenes that randomly pop up into my head.
And personally, I loved Jesse as lex. The more I watch, the more I like him. The court scene with the jar of piss is a top 5 moment in cbm history for me. And I absolutely adore the rooftop scene.
I know I'm not going to change anyone's mind on wether they like or hate it. I actually love that the film is so polarizing.
And I firmly believe we would be still getting flash in march as well ben affleck still directing batman with that coming next year had they not removed snyder. And wonder woman would be getting the same reaction regardless.
Even people that don't like snyder as a director are giving him props and thinking maybe wb should have just let him work with other directors like he did with patty.
Geoff johns only experience before this was the absolutely god awful green lantern film. And he's a mark for his own work and green lantern

Well bruh, I just think BvS had too many issues, story wise, character portrayal and overall tone. It's a very serious movie and I like that but it's bogged down because it doesn't seem to understand that people need to be entertained. Those dope visuals alone couldn't save it from being a very uneventful film for a good hour and a half almost.My thing is,I love the film. Absolutely love it.

I gotta disagree on Esienberg, he's not believable and more riddler than lex. He just seems so out of place. Major issue for this movie. Nolan was able to make serious batman movies but his villains aside from begins are top notch. You want to see joker and bane, lex just wasn't believable at all. Terrible casting choice, just can't co-sign him.
The court room scene is one of the most wasted scenes in the entire flick. I definitely disagree with u there too. Could of been a great moment, superman could have spoke and then showed him saving lives, the ultimate cut still isn't enough and doesn't impact the movie like it could have.
I think it can be more appreciated down the road cuz some people can't even admit the action in the third act was dope af. So u know people are just hating.
But the movie has some serious issues Snyder couldn't save. That script was terrible bruh.

Just saw it... thought it was meh. Kinda long-winded and shyt. 6/10 DC needs to hit one out of the park with the next movie or they're done. These shyts (outside of Suicide Squad) just aren't entertaining.

Going by the critical reception, I think it is safe to say that they hit it out of the park with Wonder Woman.

Ok? I still thought it was meh.
you are free to have an opinion.
Well,saying they need to hit out of the park with the next one or they're done is just silly because of the reception this film has gotten despite what your personal (or mine ) feelings are about it.
Ok? I still thought it was meh.
They did knock it out of the park with this one already. The reception from critics and audience is overwhelmingly positive.
They've made over 3 billion in 4 films. They're doing very,very well.

Pain and Gain is better than anything Hack Snyder has done
I don't got time for your troll accounts. Pain and Gain was 
Michael Bay couldn't make Dawn of the Dead, Man of Steel, Watchmen, 300 etc.
Alpha Male
Spare me your daps
it sounds like you're impressed by BVS simply because it strives to be an intellectual movie, regardless of whether it succeeds in that aspect or not.
Michael Bay couldn't make Dawn of the Dead, Man of Steel, Watchmen, 300 etc.
Troll accounts? So posting my opinion is trolling?
Dawn of the Dead was dope, hated 300 MOS, never seen Watchmen.
Just my view
