I like Man of Steel and especially Watchmen more than many people in this thread it seems. In fact, for whatever reason I'll never be able to explain I fucking LOVED MoS. I wonder if BvS dissapoint me too?

 

[Discotheque]

it's a corny movie outside of the mcavoy/fassbender parts. those xbrats can go kick rocks too. singer did great in killing a majority of them off.

hell i bet

Spoiler

havok dies in this one lol

 

[kswiston]

deadpool was just alright tbh

but man if xmen apocalypse is shit i'm going to go on a sabbatical in the woods

It is the third film in the First Class line. Being shit would provide a nice symmetry with the first trilogy of X-flicks.

 

[Kelsdesu]

Holy shit it went down?!

Mofos gonna be watching this rating more than the goddamn stock exchange lol.

 

[MegaSackman]

In what way?

In that AoU is a mess of a movie, not horrible but a bad one.

 

[AgentOtaku]

Iron man 3 has a terrible climax but I enjoyed it as a Shane Black movie that just happens to be about iron man.

Pretty much the only way I could enjoy it as well!

Havoc's coming back, bro. Though I'm sure he'll be better utilized, like Beast was.

EDIT: Just saw your edit. lol

I liked Watchman, hated MoS, I'm on the same boat because I want this movie to do good. I want my Flash movie.

By that logic Wolverine 3 would have symmetry with .... Oh god

 

[kurahador]

This thread is killing my heart. It genuinely dawned on me that we are getting a shitty DC movie after 3 years of wait. Bring back Nolan pls.

Nolan is the reason WB in this mess. WB need to hire Bruce Timm as their Kevin Feige pronto!!!

 

[SimleuqiR]

If the movie is this bad I hope it does not do well in the box office. Hope it tanks.
Let WB/DC keep doing TV where at least they are OK. Don't really care to see Affleck's Batman.

At least we get a Wonder Woman movie, but who knows how good that will be.

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

Certainly not a bad movie.

 

[icespide]

Phil lord and Chris Miller are doing the flash movie right? could be good

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Nolan is the reason WB in this mess. WB need to hire Bruce Timm as their Kevin Feige pronto!!!

That's true in a way. They are trying to hold on to Nolan's gritty lightning in the bottle for too long without focusing on why it worked.

 

[Magwik]

Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1.

 

[Cuburt]

He's on record saying WB actually was READY to make it a 3 hours movie, but he pressured HARD to shorten it as much as possible. That's what I'm salty against him, this is his fault.

If WB is pushing for a 3 hour movie and the director is fighting against that, that tells me that they wanted to fill it with more; they are the ones pressuring him with all the characters and storylines. And if that is the case, how can you blame Snyder for wanting a shorter, more coherent film in those circumstances?

If it was the director's vision to fill the movie to the brim with plot threads, characters, and world building, why tf would he be arguing to shorten the film? That makes no sense to me.

 

[Netherscourge]

I thought Superman Returns was better than Man of Steel.

Not even joking-

Come at me, Bros.

 

[E the Shaggy]

are they

rubber bullets at least?!

You could probably have argued that, but then the tank treads that crush people in their cars and the fire that consumes them would also have to somehow be non-lethal I guess.

 

[B33]

They understand storytelling better than Zack Snyder.

 

[NomarTyme]

Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1.

WTF?

 

[Cipherr]

Well.. We still get the score and the cinematography.

 

[Sanjuro]

I thought Superman Returns was better than Man of Steel.

Not even joking-

Come at me, Bros.

You are correct.

 

[FTF]

Strange that there are still only 44 reviews on RT...what's the hold up? Usually huge blockbusters get 200+ reviews. Did it not screen for all critics already?

 

[Neoxon]

In that AoU is a mess of a movie, not horrible but a bad one.

It wasn't even bad, just disappointing.

 

[Prompto]

Phil lord and Chris Miller are doing the flash movie right? could be good

I think they left it to do the Han Solo film

 

[void666]

It can't be worse than MoS. I'll be okay.

 

[Shaanyboi]

I thought watchmen and 300 were horrible, so this is no surprise for me.

Zack's one of the most overated directors in Hollywood and he's definitely been given enough chances.

does not compute

 

[Blader]

No, they just wrote/are writing a treatment. Seth Grahame-Smith, of Dark Shadows and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter fame, is writing and directing the Flash.

What if those scenes were really needed though. Sometimes a long story is a long story, like TLOTR or even Kingdom of Heaven.

I'll stalk you before I come at you though...I hope that's your thing.

I think applying the decent -> good -> shit progression pattern to the Wolverine trilogy results in the third movie being the anti-life equation

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

That's true in a way. They are trying to hold on to Nolan's gritty lightning in the bottle for too long without focusing on why it worked.

It's all consistent with Snyder's previous filmography though, not like he was just apeing on Nolan's bat films. Other than both being "dark" I don't actually see much of an overlap between MoS and Nolan's body of work. Not seeing this until Friday though.

 

[Salsa]

I read 1 one of those spoilers

holy heeeeeeeell

 

[Frozenprince]

Good lord they really don't have any idea what they are doing.

 

[NEO0MJ]

I wasn't expecting much but this worse than I imagined.

 

[Blader]

Well, more directly, Nolan hired Snyder for the job.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1.

It's a pretty great Shane Black film.

 

[CLEEK]

I thought Superman Returns was better than Man of Steel.

Not even joking-

Come at me, Bros.

Even Superman III is better than Man of Steel.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

I go back and forth on whether Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1, but depending on how I feel, it's either the third or fourth best MCU movie.

 

[Toa TAK]

Well, more directly, Nolan hired Snyder for the job.

So, really, it's all Nolan's fault?

There you go internet mob.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Seth Grahame-Smith, of Dark Shadows and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter fame, is writing and directing the Flash.

Just reboot this entire universe already.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

Good lord they really don't have any idea what they are doing.

There was a Thor movie directed by someone who used to do Game of Thrones episodes. The Russos were known for doing comedy on TV.

The bar isn't exactly super high with the b tier stuff

 

[flaxknuckles]

The rest of the 250 reviewers are gonna give this movie 4s out of 5. Believe

 

[mreddie]

No, they just wrote/are writing a treatment. Seth Grahame-Smith, of Dark Shadows and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter fame, is writing and directing the Flash.

Dammit.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1.

No lies detected.

 

[Discotheque]

Good lord they really don't have any idea what they are doing.

almost every comic book movie writer, even the marvel ones that you may be a fan of, has written a lot of basura.

that's a scary ass director choice though. i don't have hope for these dc films outside of suicide squad and batman.

 

[Ahasverus]

Well, more directly, Nolan hired Snyder for the job.

Nolan is the master troll.

Even Superman III is better than Man of Steel.

How about no. Jesus Christ.

 

[Magwik]

WTF?

Starks arc post-avengers and most of the movie being around him and not the suit are the best parts. Yeah yeah the twist, but the sum is greater than the parts. My strong opinion of Iron Man 3 is part of the reason Age of Ultron was such a disappointment when it comes to Tony.

 

[Chase17]

Iron Man 3 is better than Iron Man 1.

Iron Man 3 has the best trailer in the MCU.
