Thank you.
that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
loving the poll, is this a bad time to say I really like Thor: The Dark World, I guess the first one is better, but yeah I love that shit.
I enjoyed Batman v Superman more than Civil War, who is with me?

CW is the better made movie, but I had more fun watching BvS. I was hoping the action in CW wouldn't feel a flat a other MCU movies but it did. When superheroes fight I want them to seem super and just like a bunch of people fighting. The fight scenes were cool they just didn't feel like these were powerful comics come to life. BP and Spider-man were the exceptions because they were just fun to watch anyway.
Deadpool isn't a part of MCU.

There's a poll now? Where's the Iron Man 3 option?

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
I'd say the conflict presented in the movie is ironic since these two movies are basically aligning "fans" in #teammarvel and #teamdc which isn't really helping anyone. This isn't the time to take a side but rather to leave the fight. We don't have to be invested in it. We can let the studio exes duke it out.

I am not with you OP, I think cw is a better film on many levels, but I did think and talk about BvS a lot more.
the action was top notch, I'll probably cry next time I see Nolan's Batman fighting.

This too. it would have been nice if Lex was the worse thing about Batman v Superman but the whole movie is just bad. Makes me wonder how Synder can get this so wrong when Batman and Superman have been teaming up for a long time in comics and cartoons.

Thor: The Dark World is always the answer.

I can't understand people who enjoy their SO pissing on their face but different strokes for different folks.
Those people don't go out in public telling people their negative opinion on getting pissed in the face by their SO is wrong.
Usually.

Nevertheless, it's a valid opinion. 9% of people gave CW a thumbs down on RT, 28% gave BvS a thumbs up, it's certainly possible for these populations to overlap although they would be a small minority.
How do you know there are so many if they haven't been discovered?

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
Definitely on a different page with you on that one. Thor: Dark World has put me to sleep multiple times. I've actually never finished it.
Just curious, are there are any superhero or action films you haven't liked? You mentioned your opinion on Sucker Punch changed with time.
Hasn't made Catwoman tier, sadly.
I did this and I liked WS a lot better. After some time thinking about it I think its because outside of Iron Man, Captain, Spider-man, and BP everyone else is boring. They just drag the movie down for me.
WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME?!
They're really beautiful movies. It is a shame everything else isn't as solid. His Dawn of the Dead remake was great for zombie film.

Ah yes, literary allusions and symbolism, the two pillars of good film making.
I feel like you're constantly pushing this narrative because you think if you say it enough, it'll come true.

At least Batman V Superman was better than Thor 2 and Man of Steel. Blech.
Just saw Civil War and loved it, but my brother enjoyed Batman vs. Superman much more. He says Batman vs Superman is more artistic, and Civil War is too talky. I really think he only enjoyed Batman vs Superman so much because he was on shrooms. God knows what movie he saw. I fucking loved Man of Steel, but really came away mixed with BvS.
I'm not saying it's an invalid opinion, an opinion is an opinion and ifsomeone actually liked or enjoyed BvS, good for them. Still doesn't mean I understand it. It was a bad film 30 minutes in. It started out great, focussed, Wayne sees the destruction from MoS, great starting point for a movie, great spark to ignite conflict, I don't remember anyone ever doing something similar. But after that, the movie goes all over the place, heaping comic panel upon comic panel that Snyder googled and figured he wanted that in his movie, regardless if it makes sense storywise. Kinda like when you were a kid, playing with your action figures, you went from action setpiece to setpiece, just because they were cool. And then your mom yelled dinner's ready and you need to wrap things up, so Snyder brought in Doomsday, the trinity is formed out of thin air and BOOM end of movie.
There's a good story buried underneath all this mess, I just hope it come to light once the Extended Director's Final Unrated Cut is released. As the movie was released in theatres, it's objectively not a good movie, nor is it's story well-told.

I don't care if that horse has beaten to death, it deserves it and then some.
OP: I will respectfully disagree and I will try to keep this as short and to the point as why: Batman v Superman had one or two moments that could be called genuinely good in it (Wonder Woman's first appearance and maybe the Joe Chill/MYPARENTSAREDEAD91939 retelling). The airport scene alone in Civil War moves from one great moment to the next, building up from one step to the next where it all culminates in one of the most twisted and brilliant in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's perhaps the most comic book-ish scene i've seen in a movie, the action playing out like you're reading from panel to panel with your imagination filling in the character's motions between each one, perfectly capturing that sense of motion and thrills as your turn the page to find out what happens next.
That's just one amazing scene among so many others, and it's not even the best one in the film.

I grew up watching dc cartoons and the way they fucked up bvs was spectacular. Like it takes talent to screw up that badly. Even Civil war had better trailers then bvs. bvs basically spoiled everything with the doomsday trailer. Civil war managed to give you an idea what their movie was about without spoiling the important plot points or overall film.

In that I enjoyed the movie, I haven't seen Civil War yet.

Why did you make this thread? Lol
My answer is absolutely not. Iron man vs Cap was SO much better than Bats vs Supes.

I have to admit, BvS does have this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gw_o7XUX3fg

It's like you're living in the upcoming Wonder Woman film!
Yep, he wants to see that on shrooms too.
Yep, that's what really brings BvS alive with excitement for me. It was like 'omggggggggggggg... Hold on tight!'
I didnt really have any of that feeling in Civil War. No music stands out to me from that. Whilst I remember that music and the music with the scene of Lex walking down the corridor.
