I think Jhans is terrible at reviews. Seems like a cool guy worth hanging out.
He more of a first impression kinda of guy. He doesn't take time trying to analysis much.

I'm aware it's an actual thing. But there is no need to actually show that, when it was only a transition in the book. It just looks plain silly on screen, instead of conveying unease as it's supposed to.
It's been a number of years since I saw the film, but while I liked it, I remember feeling like the director just copypasted what he saw in the book.
Having seen more of his films since, I can see now Watchmen the film works because the source material is so strong that literally recreating it can still work. BvS has no such strong material so his cribbing of comic book panels, other films and art ends up meaning nothing.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
Erh, Civil War was weak though. Bless the John Wick filmmakers for the airport scene because without it, the film would have been quite dull and was at times uneven in pacing and editing. Bless em.

Nah. Miller is better than that. His talents would be far better utilized making another Mad Max.

They should have just picked one of the 3 or 4 movies this tries to be and made a good version of that.
To be fair, his review have been already posted two times before.
Stuckmann is far superior imo. I don't always agree with him but he usually has reasonable opinions and explains them well.

So this is still doing pretty poorly huh? That's kind of a shame. And despite the thread title and whatever else was said in here about Thor 2. I thought BvS was much more enjoyable and I think Thor 2 is about as boring as Man of Steel. Unfortunately though I guess this potentially underperforming due to shitty reviews means we probably won't get another suicide squad movie for better or worse.

I agree, but I won't lie. I hate signs.
WB should hand Miller The Matrix reboot.

Nah, screw Justice League and Mad Max.
Miller should do another Babe.

Because i linked a review, suddenly i am very invested in this movie? The guy´s comment was fanboyish, and i called him on it.
I have not read all the 34 page thread, so i did not know it was already linked.
You forgot the ''Pretend it's good'' phase between the last two ones.
It's like the school of youtube editing. I can't stand youtubers that does this and I find it ironic when they criticize a movie for editing lol.
Nolan pulled the plug on Miller, because Miller wanted the main Villan to be Thalia Al Ghul and Nolan had called dibs.
Now this is a cinematic universe I need.
I never knew I wanted this. Get the John Wick guys on board and light that shit up.
Nolan Nooooooooo
He also hired Snyder (because he was the only one that said he would do it lol iirc )

What the heck are you talking about LMAO
Step away from the computer screen bud, you're getting too heated
He's a bad reviewer whose videos inform you little about the movie beyond the RT consensus, that's my take on it
The fact that you jumped to fanboy conclusions is hardly surprising given your avy and posting history tho

Nolan is to blame for the sad state that the DCEU is in.
Rotten Tomatoes agrees with you. That's what sets people's asses on fire about these DC movie reviews.
Thor 2 is dope.
AHAHA

Nolan went scorched earth so that no one after him could make better movies.

Because he created something so good that no one else could match it?
Thor 2 is better than Thor 1
So how much did you love Thor 2?

Some folks in here trying to make it seem the MCU is the best thing since sliced bread. Absurdity abound,
Great Cinematography? LOL!!! Get outta here with that.
Amazing Soundtracks? AHHAHA nope.
That's GAF for you. Buying into that Marvel assembly-line product. The lack of true creative vision and risk with directors being stifled in their level of control; it's all perfectly calculated.
DC's biggest mistake is thinking they can do the same thing. It's like they hopped on the toilet as quickly as they could with this "me too" attitude only to have to strain and force out the most constipated, grotesque looking shit imagineable.
There hasn't been a truly memorable FILM in the MCU; nothing that could stand on it's own as a masterpiece like Nolan's interpretations (or rather, one of those). This genre is becoming a bit of a joke; fanboy flame wars abound on the eve of each and every release. There's that initial clamor, the "OMG BEST MOVIE EVAR!" (usually in the case of the MCU), and then it all blows over until the next one, which everyone has been reminded to see in a post-credit sequence of some sort.
Don't worry. I'm eagerly awaiting South Park The Fractured But Whole and its takedown of this nonsense.
Wasn't Nolan the one who decided to hire Snyder for Man of Steel?
Keep in mind the other candidates for the job were Ben Affleck, Darren Aronofsky, Duncan Jones, Jonathan Liebesman, Matt Reeves, and Tony Scott.

Thor 2 is iight
It has a cool final fight, good visuals, nice fight with Kurse, and Loki's hijinx were always entertaining
Really unfunny at certain points, and a very dull drag for the first two acts

Well he picked Zack and presented Goyer proposal for a Superman film to WB.
Leading to green lighting it.
So yes Nolan started the DCU and rise our hopes for greatness and then left to do his own things that bastard.
Still love Nolan tho
