The Official Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Movie Thread

[R=G]

Finally saw this

pros
Better than MoS
Batman and Wonder Woman were pretty good, as was Alfred.
Action towards then end was good
At least the fought in a abandoned part of town instead of in the heart of a densely populated city this time.
I thought everybody turned in solid performances.

Cons
It takes a looonnnnnggggg time for them to fight
Fight was too short
I chalk Lex up to bad characterization rather than acting, cause that was no lex i've ever seen. I actually believe he was originally going to be Riddler.
The end to the fight was

Too many damn flashback. Why do we need flashbacks to stuff that happened a hour before in the movie? Also fairly sure newborns know batman's parents died.

at Batman saying he was a friend of Superman when rescueing Martha Kent. You were about stab and kill him not even 10 minutes ago

Darkseid/evil superman/flash sequence was just weird.
Can't do with Batman killing people.
Killing Superman should have been kept till later on.


There were other things i didn't really like, but those were the main ones.





Like i said, Eisenberg would have made a nice riddler, but that was no Lex i've ever seen

Not sure when Darkseid is appearing..the first Justice League but Superman dying in this. way too early. Justice League makes more sense...then you flip him back in for his next flick. The way Darkseid is portrayed is a big key after this Luthor flop.

I guess that Darkseid may arrive at the end of the first part. They'll probably focus on uniting the Justice League for most of the first one.

Snyder explains the ending to Batman V Superman

Spoilers:

Basically the end of Batman V Superman , Superman is dead , but as he is in his coffin , some dirt rises off his grave. This confused some people so Snyder explained.



Will Superman Appear in the Justice League Films?

Is this a joke? Ppl didn't understand. Even if u were sleep during the film, you know they're making a JL film.... With Superman on the team....

That why i hated them killing superman. Not only did they immediately tell you he's not dead with the dirt, but everybody and their mom knows he's in the Justice League, why not wait till then to put him 6 feet under for a time.

I don't know if it's been said already but Batman >>>>> Wonder Woman in this movie.
I get she only had a little screen time to establish her as a character but overall
I wasn't all that impressed with her.

ZACK SNYDER TALKS FORMING THE JUSTICE LEAGUE; JABS AT CAPTAIN AMERICA, HULK & MARVEl

Pretty early on I had this idea that I wanted [Superman's death] to happen. I really felt like if we were going to move forward with the Justice League, that Batman needed to put it together, and you couldn't have this... I mean Superman is Superman," Snyder said. "If he's around, he's going to be put in charge because he's Superman. And so I really felt we need to - in a cool way - create a mechanism that could get him out of the way. And I didn't want to [rolls eyes] freeze him on ice and shoot him into space. I thought that was boring [laughs]."

Snyder continues with mention of all the deaths in Man of Steel and Batman vs. Superman (that some fans complained about), seemingly taking another swipe at Marvel by saying, "Because I really feel like consequences are important in super hero movies. Otherwise, they are slightly irresponsible, and we're just saying 'blow everything up and no one gets hurt, it's awesome,' and I just felt like no, no that's not cool..."

He hasn't written a good death scene yet,so he shouldn't sound so cocky

Unless he thought Clarks pops getting killed by that tornado was some goat shyt

I thought the Superman death was good,but then I was on youtube and saw that Superman actually died in the comics fighting Superman and it looked way more climactic how it really happened...But I'm still going to say they pulled it off pretty good in the movie being they had to cram so much into it....The only downside is I didn't really care about Superman dying,because this movie didn't do much to make you care.....I already covered not being impressed by Henry Cavils acting or the direction he's being given....But if they gave him more time I think I could've managed to give a little bit of a damn....Zack Snyder should realize death is only a consequence if people care about the character

Interesting to see him say he had to think of a way to get Superman "out of the way" for Batman though...Have any Superman fans complained about that shyt....His whole take on Superman seems like he doesn't give a shyt about Superman,and this movie definitely felt that way.

I thought Zod (MOS) and Superman (BvS) death's were pretty good. But just the death's themselves. They build up/setup wasn't that great.

It's weird cause I thought The Comedian and Rorschach's death's scenes in Watchmen were damn near perfect.

 

[Still Benefited]

in the animated series version of it/comic version it looks like Doomsday just beats the shyt out of Superman with pure muscle....I wouldn't have minded them introducing that as something that's possible.

I didn't like the Zod death either,but never saw all of Watchmen

Snyder is the worst

Superman dying at the hands of Doomsday could've been fukking awesome and impactful....instead it was a generic comic battle with a big, no-name monster. Nevermind that he'd already died, on screen, about 20 minutes earlier. And Superman sacrificing himself at the hands of an unbeatable enemy would be believable if we got to see that enemy actually wreck shyt....like Zod did. They had the mass casualties/destruction in the wrong damn movie.

The more I think about BvS and what the DCU could've been, the more disappointed I get.

Supes just committed that to. He was just like, "OK, I'll die to kill this thing." He didn't even try to survive. "The S on my chest stands for Hope."

I kinda agree with the Doomsday part. i would've liked to had seen Doomsday being built up from the beginning.
However I was pleased with the overall film
