I don't understand why people here are happy that this movie is getting bad reviews. I was looking forward to this movie and feel disappointed at the result. I really want this movie to work :(
 
Movie is so bad that the thread had to be locked for a second just to try and stop it from dropping it any further. Kind of like closing the stock market.

Putting together a compset for BvS. Here is a list of its peers, comic book movies that were similar in critic reception. You know, plus or minus 10%.

Daredevil: 44%
Fantastic Four: 27%
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer: 37%
Blade: Trinity: 25%
X-Men Origins: Wolverine: 38%
Green Lantern: 26%
Batman Forever: 41%
Superman III: 26%

And comic book movies that are way out of BvS's league:

Man of Steel: 56%
The Amazing Spider-Man 2: 53%
X-Men: The Last Stand 58%

2005 or 2015 FF?

We're all disappointed.

We're just trying to cope anyway we can. For example, by watching Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
 

Let the records show that this committee holds him responsible

YOU'RE TEARING ME APART

I am done man, this is moving into bullying territory, holy shit.


It has to do 800 million just to break even. Depending on what consumers response is its possible this movie isn't even profitable.

This will do 800 million on name alone, so stop worrying. None of us have any reservations about having a laugh at it turning out badly because we all know that its still going to bring in that dough. It will lack legs, but they will make their money anyway.
 
I honestly prefer Marvel than DC, but there's no fucking way it can be this bad like holy shit.

I mean when people said divisive they weren't joking. This movie is getting heavily criticized and stomped on. It seems like critics were ready to rip this movie to shreds since day 1.

Anyway I'll eventually see it for myself.

After the dreadful MoS movie I had hoped snyder would learn from his mistakes, but I guess not it seems.

Not even gonna bother watching this at the cinema now. Guess I'll wait for it to hit vudu/netfix before I see it.

Sometimes it's fun to see people in denial, also, I've been wanting Snyder out of the DCEU since the beginning and this could help
 
So what do you think is going on at DC HQ right now? Performing animal sacrifices to insure the reviews don't impact the box office in any meaningful way like Transformer movies?
 

Lol that's what I witnessed at my showing last night. People were practically begging for something to cheer for and there were like 1 or 2 moments. Otherwise after the ending we watched the credits roll hoping for a stinger and instead left in silence.

And something similar happened when I watched MoS in theaters. You would think silence is good for a theater experience but usually these comic book movies lead to nice pops with some crowd pleasing scenes. Instead we all watched in silence and left without any reaction haha.
 
"This is just like my grades every semester. I'm riding high thinking I'll get at least B's in all my classes and then finals come around and I fail.

Maybe I should spend less time following superhero movies and more time studying."

from that reddit thread!1 :D ... /alreadydead

i wasn't hyped for this movie at all but dayum ... figured 70s and such easy.

suicide squad for all the monies i guess...

contrast this experience with Deadpool where people were laughing, fist pumping, 'fuck yah"ing all over the place. How does a superman movie not pull that emotion out of people... so crazy.
 
This is slightly out of context as I think he's referring to how they sat through the entire credits only to find out there was no teaser at the end

Are you sure it's not that they're waiting for a teaser but that they just couldn't move because their brains couldn't process the badness of the thing they just watched?

Good to know about no teaser after credits though. Not gonna waste my time seeing the credits roll later... especially if the movie is just as bad as everyone said... damn.
