The OP may have single handedly fucked over this movie.

If one dodgy rumor from a crap website is all if takes to sink this film then it deserves to flop.

 

[thehypocrite]

"If man can't appreciate this movie, then the devil will do it!"

lol. Glorious.

Batman Robot voice: Tell me, do you deep?




You will!!!

Batman V Superman |OT| Too Big For Little Minds

Yes.

YEEESSSS

Spoiler

still has the OT rights. I think

Do you suppose it might be God?

Spectre will kill Doomsday, but a mid-credits scene will show Doomsday evolving an immunity to divine wrath.

If history has proven anything, it's that evolution always wins.

 

[Dahbomb]

I think it's a fair assumption that any studio putting out a several million dollar budget film that is supposed to kick start an expansive cinematic universe will be very nervous about its performance.

You guys should know that the guy who instigated this rumor is the same guy who said that DC had a no joke policy in their movies and that Joseph Gordon Lewitt would play Batman in the Justice League. So he's not exactly bullet proof when it comes to these rumors.

 

[DonasaurusRex]

geezus you don't let this kind of stuff get out to the public before a release....

 

[Laughing Banana]

What I don't get is how in the trailers they clearly show Batman and Superman already working together against a monster (along with Wonder Woman) so mehh, what's the point of putting a Vs. on the title again?

Also, it would have been better if they just keep Wonder Woman under wraps and reveal it as a surprise during the movie itself. Of course, they can't resist showing a Terminator Genesys level of trailer :/

 

[IconGrist]

So we just making threads every time some dumbass says something about Batman v Superman? Okay.

 

[Escape Goat]

Deep story...oh boy. Okay, lets get this over with WB. Roll film!

 

[Mashing]

"Deep story written by an Oscar winner." Well, there's your tagline for marketing folks. Nothing else to see here, move along.

 

[Zubz]

So they're preemptively pulling a "If you don't like it, you just didn't get it" months before it's even out?

 

[-Horizon-]

Deep?

 

[MisterHero]

Deep?

Deep references to fathoms.

As in Aquaman

 

[Dai101]

Dawn of Justice’s deep story that was written by an Oscar winner.

 

[Velcro Fly]

i'm more insulted that WB thinks i'm too dumb to comprehend the obviously complex story of a comic book movie

get the fuck out of here with that shit

 

[Error]

So they're preemptively pulling a "If you don't like it, you just didn't get it" months before it's even out?

They (that is WB or Zack Snyder) never said what's in the OP.

 

[Mighty Chin]

Deep for a WB Executive I guess.

 

[broncobuster]

The stuff in the OP reeks of a controlled leak for PR damage control after the last one.

"The only bad thing about

Spoiler

Gears of War 2

Batman V. Superman is that it's too good!"

Those crafty folk at DC Studios had an anonymous source tell Batman on Film that they're concerned about the critical and financial response to their multi-million dollar project. Where's The Question when you need him.

 

[JB1981]

The problem with Batman V Superman is that it's almost too good.

 

[Northeastmonk]

I think the question they're asking is, "Why is Batman and Superman fighting?". I had someone at work ask this and you can basically boil all of it down to the whole superheroes should be accountable for their actions.

I don't see how people even remember the plots as is. Most people will walk in, get their thrill of the violence and cinematic effects, and then leave. I don't hear about too many mainstream outlets of generic groups of people (who aren't fans of Marvel or DC) discuss any plot in any movie.

IMO they're basically wanting to put pretty images on the screen and get people excited. Doesn't anyone else feel like these movies come with their own push and shove? One minute everyone loves it and then the next there's something majorly wrong with it.

It's like video games in certain ways. One moment everyone's talking about it and the next they're all proud that they don't sit at home and play anymore.

 

[foxtrot3d]

So the problem is that the movie is too great?

 

[q_q]

The story did look pretty deep to me... Until wonder woman and the monster thing showed up. Ill pass.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

Where did this "___ is too good" meme come from? Did the makers of GoW 2 really say that?

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Zack Snyder makes crap movies, not deep movies

Man of Steel was a great movie.

 

[Brutalitops]

It just looks bad. I've cringed every time I've seen Wonder Women in those trailers.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

A review of gears of war 2

 

[SlimySnake]

fuck. i came to post this

 

[Dark Ninja]

Going from what percentage of Batman may be in this movie. It may just be mediocre, which is worse than being horrible.

 

[TheOfficeMut]

Zack Snyder makes crap movies, not deep movies

You could say he makes... deep shit.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

Man of Steel was a great movie.

You could say he makes... deep shit.

 

[Magwik]

Nice rebuttal there. God forbid people have opinions.

 

[bengraven]

People are so used to shit, we're not sure if they'll enjoy quality.

 

[The Silver]

Man folks don't even bother to read the first line of OPs anymore, how are people still responding as if WB said this.

 

[Cipherr]

holy shit this thread.... my sides

God I cant wait for the next slate of comic films man

 

[Zee-Row]

I doubt it will be another watchmen fiasco.

 

[Opto]

What could go wrong with a movie with batman and superman having like a billion fights and then Wonder Woman shows up and Lex Luthor is manipulating everything and then Doomsday shows up

 

[Silver Arrows]

Nice rebuttal there. God forbid people have opinions.

Comic book threads always bring out the worst / childish of GAF. The old console war fanboys didn't vanish, they just moved up to dick waving about their favorite comic book company.

 

[SchrodingerC]

Unless BvS is secretly a comic book movie version of Brokeback Mountain, I'm doubting the plot isn't much deeper than the usual CB movie.

 

[LionPride]

But Man of Steel is good. Plus it's the best Superman movie that we've gotten period

 

[Rktk]

They should be worried they made a Batman Vs Superman movie.

 

[MisterHero]

But Man of Steel is good. Plus it's the best Superman movie that we've gotten period

I love Man of Steel, but not quite that much. lol

I also really liked Watchmen and Dawn of the Dead. 300 had some nice shots too. He's okay with me.

 

[Magwik]

A mod really needs to change the title

 

[WadiumArcadium]

WB is worried about light rain in the forecast tomorrow.

 

[Future Foundation]

The two titles in regards to this story have both been really misleading. Speculation is being presented as fact and it's fucking people up.

 

[LionPride]

Superman and Superman II really ain't that good. By comparison to the previous films before it, Man of Steel is the best

 

[Ahasverus]

That's hilarious. I'm now relooking forward to this Oscar worthy story of three superheroes fighting a space monster.

Totally. Messypandas, we need a Neogaf DC carnival of stupid pic, plz.

 

[Poodlestrike]

The two titles in regards to this story have both been really misleading. Speculation is being presented as fact and it's fucking people up.

I'm gonna borrow Dash Riprock's enduring words of wisdom and say that if they're getting fucked up by this at this point it's because they deserve to be.

(By which I mean they really want to be. Like, you'd have to stop reading the OP halfway through and spend 0 time looking through the replies.)

 

[Strangelove77]

Who is this boy? I dislike his face.

 

[BKatastrophe]

If history has proven anything, it's that evolution always wins.

i thought that was the thirst?

 

[flkraven]

Lol this seems like some pr company for WB found lemons and decided to make lemonade.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Literally days after Deadpool shocks the world by offering up an irreverant experience skewering how seriously superhero movies take themselves, we get word that BvS is simply too deep and too cerebral for audiences to understand.

L-o-fucking-l.
