Man some people get really defensive about liking a poorly reviewed film. Its fine if you like a movie thats not technically sound or conceptually great or anything. Theres no massive conspiracy among critics simply because you disagree with the consensus.
 
I wonder how much higher the RT score would be if the Marvel logo flashed on screen at the beginning before the movie started.

Hmm...
It has more to do with quality than the logo
Well I don't think they have a good track record lately. My expectations are really low and I enjoyed green Lantern and extremely dislike man of Steel and dark Knight rises.

Just came back watching the movie and all I have to say is the critics are complete idiots and are in bed with Disney. I give this movie a solid 8.5 if not for the confusing flashbacks etc, but man the action scene is top notch. Batman went straight Arkham knight mode like in the game doing brutal takedowns and just bone crushing everyone . the doomsday fight oh boy shit was crazy.
 
from what I hear there's not much before the credits either

Just saw the movie

Got to say this thread has made me so uneasy the last few days, thought I was going into another spectre situation.

Movie was great, yeah there are some flaws but left a great taste in my mouth. Everyone I was with liked it as well. It's not the greatest superhero movie ever but I think the foundation is fine and I'm ready to see what they have in store for us.

Also people complaining about superman, I'm not sure half of you read the comics because superman is a giant dick in the beginning of the new 52 run. He is nowhere near new52 levels in this movie universe.

This is not a superman sequel, it was originally but then became a justice league .5 during pre production and people need to realize that when they complain it's too dark.

There were a couple things I didn't like but the good outweighed the bad by a significant margin.

Loved it

Not Marvel, stop with the conspiracies

We know they're all owned by Disney Corporation :P
 
You made a very good point, but there IS something about people who automatically dismiss or join in the mockery of a movie that is popular and getting poor reviews. You've seen plenty of people who have already decided for themselves that the movie is terrible, a trainwreck, what have you, based on the opinions of critics. You were totally right, though, that a big problem is the people who think that anybody who has a dissenting opinion is 100% doing it to join the crowd and be accepted. That's a ridiculous conspiratorial and unhealthy way to look at it.

What do you think the function of critique is? I always thought it was to let people know whether a thing is worth their time and money. This is ain't no different than avoiding eating from a poorly reviewed hibachi.

This thread is pretty entertaining in a way because of this, but sad in another for the same reason.

I can't wait to repeat this whole cycle if Civil War gets bad reviews as well.

Why do people keep saying this shit?
 
Also.... I'm all about different interpretations of characters (IE Burton's Batman that killed from time to time) but holy fucking shit was Eisenberg miscast here.
This is almost NOTHING here that even remotely resembles Lex.

I'm dying

Bobby where are you
 
I can say with certainty and after the money that disney has given me that civil war is a better movie than batman vs superman

also eisenberg did a great job as joker but for some reason they kept calling him lex luthor
 
It deserves lower.

This is a trainwreck. This is a terrible move. This is a boring and long movie.

Treat yourself and go see something like My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2. You'll thank yourself.

Maybe rewatch Green Latern. You'll save money and be far more entertained.

You did it, bruh

You caught the marvel shills right in the act

Your gold medal will arrive shortly in the mail
 
Guys, I went to see the movie a couple hours ago and I gotta say, it was great!, had great time from start to end, and while the movie has some flaws I think it did well in the things that really matter.

This kind of experience always remind me no to thrust the over reacting internet all the time.

Supes was alright and Batffleck knocked it out of the park, and by far the weakest links were Luthor and Lane (both the actors and the writing were meh at best). Go ahead and watch the movie, have some laughs, some surprises and some over the top moments, it is a movie after all so dont take things too seriously, I sure as hell left with a great taste in my mouth.

I'm sensing a trend.

Well it did score 10 points higher than that other infamous versus movie. Alien vs Predator.

Also getting tired of these 2.5-3 hours movies and thats before 20 minutes of previews...

You're right that there is merit to what critics do. People who don't want to see it due to the number of negative reviews are totally in the right. I am talking about people who keep talking about how terrible it is without even having seen it themselves and knowing that there are positive reviews as well.
