Could someone translate this into video game terms? I'm not a big movie guy but this being bad seems to be a big deal.

Assassins Creed 3.

Game was Hyped, Left to be Disappointing.

 

[Shamrock7r]

Where are you seeing 41%?

That's actually innacurate according to the fresh to rotten ratio. Should be lower

 

[shoreu]

humorless, not fun.

Well fuck, seems like critics really don't want variety.

I don't want to comment but yeah superhero movies don't have to follow marvels method let DC have their serious movies.

Holy shit

 

[Nokterian]

And here i wonder why in the world Warner Bros wasn't smart enough in just making Man of Steel 2 and a new Batman movie instead a long side Wonder Woman and then at last maybe in 2019 that you then can make a Dawn of Justice.

The way i think of it WB just wants go after Marvel but they haven't planned like marvel did with their phases and that is a shame...

 

[Fewr]

I keep refreshing and it's still showing 10 fresh, 17 rotten for a 37% for me :/

Same

 

[StriKeVillain]

I compare Snyder to Ridley Scott.
No one likes his theatrical cut.
Director's cut will be baller as hell.


Thank god for that.

As a huge Ridley Scott fan, this makes me sad. :/

[Popnbake]

After the RT 100% for TDKR and the controversy over that critic who gave it a negative review, I can't imagine BvS being much worse.

It's just not possible.

 

[Poodlestrike]

I keep refreshing and it's still showing 10 fresh, 17 rotten for a 37% for me :/

I'm seeing 10/27 too, but the actual meter reads 41%, lol.

 

[Tobor]

Zack Snyder made a shitty movie? I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you!

Fire this clown already.

 

[Timbuktu]

I don't know how Affleck can go through shooting this, knowing that Snyder will fuck it up. This isn't really surprising at all.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Sooooo Suicide Squad reviewing better than Snyders offering(s) on the universe is def going to happen lmao

 

[Chezzymann]

That's actually innacurate according to the fresh to rotten ratio. Should be higher

10/27 is 37% though

around the eight minute mark. Rofl

people are using her review as their last hope for this movie being good, and she says stuff like this

(also she's clearly shilling for Dolby so...)

 

[Dalek]

I guess they might give Max Landis the job in the next Man of Steel movie?

They would get someone that loves Superman. His American Alien series is a love letter to Superman.

This is vicious

 

[VAD]

My expectations are set at the lowest. I'm still going to see it. Hopefully Civil War will be able to wash the bad taste if the movie does actually suck.

 

[tabs2002]

Snyder sucks but I didn't expect reviews to be this bad, yikes.

 

[jack_package_200]

RT is nearing 50%

Think that'll do it for now

Where the fuck are you seeing this?

 

[Shamrock7r]

10/27 is 37% though

Meant lower. Yea.

 

[shira]

RT is nearing 50%

Think that'll do it for now

Yeah but the scores of the fresh ratings are ~70%

 

[Spinluck]

Ask the people who liked ASM2

This is scoring lower than that film, so yeah, lol.

I cant even read this past the first paragraph.

It says a lot of very depressing things about our world right now that this astonishingly dumb film has real-life parallels. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice is the story of a self-important billionaire with a casual attitude to the truth, who becomes paranoid about a segment of the immigrant population. He decides to take brutal and - as it happens - entirely unjustified and even self-endangering action against that immigrant, to the benefit of a rich psychopath who wants to distract everyone from their own nefarious grasp at power.

Seriously? give me a fuckin break.

 

[mrjohill]

I bet that Cyborg movie just got canceled

Yeah plans definitely have to change

 

[Ray Down]

Doesn't matter if the movie will be good or not the double toasted review will make this worth it.

 

[pbayne]

Zack Snyder is going to make me lose my smile

Check San Antonio

Jesus those reveiws. Hope it'll be like Speed Racer or something where its universally panned but actually enjoyable to watch.

 

[Maximus.]

Did not expect all the negative reviews with the script rewrite and what not. Still going in with a neutral mindset though.

 

[Poodlestrike]

They would get someone that loves Superman. His American Alien series is a love letter to Superman.

Yeah, but he's a terrible screenwriter :/

 

[Ganzlinger]

Aw man... bought my tickets today...

 

[UberTag]

I'm seeing 10/27 too, but the actual meter reads 41%, lol.

Clearly two more positive reviews are being held up at the border until they clear customs.

 

[ghostjoke]

I was expecting it to go one way or another with no middle ground. In retrospective, with Snyder at the helm, this was to be expected.

[TheGreatDirector]

Goddamn I did not see this coming.

 

[LionPride]

I feel like it won't be the worst Superhero film of the year, quality wise at least.

 

[mreddie]

Where the fuck are you seeing this?

41% on my side, again, first day and we could likely close out near 50%

 

[Spyder_Monkey]

But is it better than All-Star Batman and Robin?

 

[Jarmel]

I guess my 80% RT was wildly optimistic.

lololol

 

[Anton Sugar]

Jeff Cannata's non-spoiler review is pretty good and insightful on why he disliked it so much

Yikes. Sounds like Snyder/the script just completely flubbed the characters and the second-half narrative/structure.

 

[Shaanyboi]

But is it better than All-Star Batman and Robin?

Most things are.

 

[Poodlestrike]

I feel like it won't be the worst Superhero film of the year, quality wise at least.

Gambit got pushed to next year.

 

[3N16MA]

Aw man... bought my tickets today...

RT score sways your decision to see a film like this?

 

[Creamium]

Jeff Cannata's non-spoiler review is pretty good and insightful on why he disliked it so much

Two things really worry me here

Spoiler

1. Superman also being a brooding character (the biggest sin of all), and 2. Batman using guns and killing people? Damn.

 

[RedShift]

Ha wow, I came way too close to folding and deciding to see this movie even after the awful trailers and how mediocre MoS was.

 

[LyleLanley]

Just saw this on Twitter.

 

[JTripper]

http://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/batman-v-superman-review

I know I haven't seen the film yet, but fuck using a line like that. Sometimes critics are more hyperbolic than the worst of forum posters and that seems like a sentence generated for pure shock value rather than saying anything meaningful or constructive.

 

[moggio]

I compare Snyder to Ridley Scott.

Please don't.

 

[NomarTyme]

LMAO wow. Oh well still watching it.

 

[BronsonLee]

Yeah, this'll probably taper out to around 50-55.
