>deniro wasn't even nominated for Dirty Grandpa
oscars are a fluke

Because the Oscars are an embarrassment.

He settled for a Jolly Rancher.

Fuck off retard

For the oscars, no cares who you are u til you put on a mask. A mask of deceit. And BvS is anything but. Snyder would never allow that.

The fact that it got razzies proves that people are MASSIVELY butthurt that they did not get another mindless flick starring two over-portrayed men in capes who were, this time, done justice.

The Razzies are a joke. Even the clickbait journalists avoided reporting the razzies this year. The awards were petty and consisted of shaming ambition. I think the Disney PR flung the hammer just a little too hard at BvS. People smelled something funny.

Yeah, and there was a ton of bad PR for the film right from the start.

Are you a sadist?

Yes. But if you have a better gif or a webm I would be sincerely grateful.

Do you have the movie? Use WinFF to convert it.

Legit if BvS ever ends up on a streaming site like netflix, amazon, hulu etc. I'll check it out...

but I'm not paying to rent it

Mainly because every normie, and that means not only the viewing audience, but also somewhere in the neighborhood of, oh, let's say 73% of "critics," did not understand this movie. They didn't understand the characters, they didn't understand the plot, and they for damn sure didn't understand that what they were watching wasn't your typical big-budget-beat-em-up. It was a complete curveball from a guy that's already proven he likes to throw them.

Eisenberg and pretty much everyone on the project did a superb job, and I hope they take satisfaction from the fact that their real fans know it. I also hope they get satisfaction from the fact that they just busted out 73% of people writing reviews to either be puppets or plebs.

No one who understands what this movie is and what it has done can hate it.

Do you even realise how far up your own ass you are?

okay

>that cam wuality
>shit aspect ratio

what the fuck is up with people on youtube uploading clips in 16:9? The movie isn't in 16:9.

Oh wow, I forgot they hired that little faggot to play Luthor. That was when I turned away from DC "movies" and never looked back.

That's the beautiful irony of it - your own statement only serves to reveal the truth of the matter.

stop projecting

terrible casting on top of terrible acting.

It's cherry...

Why are you suddenly in every thread? Stop replying to me, fucking tripfag

Look man, BvS really isn't what you think it is. It's not some high-brow, mind blowing, thinking-man's movie
It's a well done superhero movie that was butchered in the theatrical release.
I liked it, and I'm not constantly rambling about Martha, CGI, or marvel for that matter, but BvS really is just a superhero movie, and it shouldn't be regarded as some next level shit, nor should you be watching it and proclaiming ''you just don't get it''. It's pathetic

Not sure what's more pathetic, BvS or Star Wars prequels apologists, there's probably a lot of overlap between the two groups though

>notice batman v superman has been playing on HBO for nearly six months nonstop
>decide to watch it once
>they resized it for TV and cut off the sides
>it's not even ultimate edition

>Why are you suddenly in every thread?

Why are YOU browsing every thread I am?
>Stop replying to me, fucking tripfag
no

false equivalence

The ultimate cut is reserved for physical media.

>false equivalence
I don''t think you know what that means, but judging by the fact you think BvS is high art that would make sense

yet another non-statement that exists only to insult.

great job.

kys

Throwing around terms they don't understand in order to sound intelligent and lofty...what does that remind me of?

>Look man, BvS really isn't what you think it is. It's not some high-brow, mind blowing, thinking-man's movie

I disagree, and I'll even post up all the reasons why I think it's what I say it is, and I'm gonna throw on a trip to do it so there's no mistaking what posts are mine.

Almost as bad as leto's joker. They really need to get better at casting villians.

There is, and it's a hatred for Disney.

Get some taste and stop shitting up the board even further

Kill yourself.

I must insist.

It's definitely a statement, and even if it's mean to be insulting doesn't detract from its validity, because it's apparent to everyone you have bad taste and are in fact contributing to the decline in quality of this website

I'm just going to assume there's nothing coming, confirming the movie isn't art, but just another superhero flick

>everyone

Do you think this board is your ally?

Why are you responding seriously to bait? Are you a retard? Are you new?

I make more money than you and fuck girls. You don't.


:::drops mic:::


Don't even bother replying to me, I'm already gone.

What the fuck?

It makes more than a year and I still cant believe how bad this movie was. So many things shoehorned, so many characters having to be stupid for it to work, so many comic book plotlines I mean fuck.

It deserved a lower score

>there's probably a lot of overlap between the two groups though
I never thought of that but totally agree

It hadn't occured to me either until I made the post

>He browses Sup Forums but hasn't seen koty 2016

I'm waiting until it ends up on Netflix or something. At this point I need to see how bad it is myself.

*teleports behind you*

Ding dong
Its was shit

>tfw you bought the ultimate edition on Amazon Prime and have no regrets

>being so mad about the kino BvS you can't stop bitching about it a year later
>being so absolutely buttblasted that a 27% on RT is not. low. enough.

Just watch it on a free streaming site.

Like a plebian? The smallest I'll watch my movies is on my tv screen.

Because he didn't play an *alcoholic* super-villain.
Otherwise, he would've been a dead cinch.

Well then you'll have to pay for it. What's it gonna be?

The waiting game.

Torrent the uncompressed blu ray you fuck

I don't know what that means

Im not mad just still shocked about how bad it was I just didnt thought it was possible to fuck it up that bad

>torrent the bluray
>stream to your smart tv or just use an hdmi cord if you're a pleb who doesn't have one

You have no excuse other than being a soccer mom tier retard who can't into basic technology.

Smart tv?
Hdmi cord?

Stop using words you don't know the meaning of in an attempt to fit in. You're literal human garbage.

Because it was a miscast that should have went to Michael Cera. Sort of like every movie Jesse whatever is in

>Hdmi cord?

Yes, a requirement for virtually every TV in existence made in the past 10 years. At least be consistent in your lame ass bait attempts, if you can work Netflix on a TV then you know what smart tvs and hdmi is.

Me too. And I actually liked Snyder before he caped.

You mean Jay Baruchel

I liked 300, found Sucker Punch so bad its good, MoS was cool, so all im for Snyder shit, but yeah bvs just really didnt delivered

I'm still typing it all up.

Why are people talking about how Michael Cera is a better version of Jesse Eisenberg. It's the other way around.

Peepee

Jesse, literally nobody likes you. Zombieland could be an easy 9/10 with Cera . Social network might be watchable

if Marisa Tomei got one he could too

Here's the first installment,

It's taken me better than a year to put all of this together, but I think I'm finally ready to say all of this for the record. I'm a comics fan, an *old* comics fan by the standards of this site's demographics, so my knowledge isn't only practical, it's experiential. I was alive and reading a lot of what many here think of as comics history. My father taught me how to read from his own comics collection and the legacy that he passed on to me was more than just some musty old crates. It was a love of these characters and a love for myths, legends, and tales. In the paragraphs that follow, I'm going to do my best to explain why I believe that what Zack Snyder and the creators behind the DC Cinematic Universe are doing is not only a service to the fans, but to the spirit that lies at the heart of the myths themselves.

Before I begin in earnest, I should take a moment to point out that there is a lot going on in these movies. Jeremy Irons, the actor that plays the role of Alfred Pennyworth, went on record saying that he thought the project(BvS) was, in his words, "a bit overstuffed," and I think of that as a masterpiece of understatement, as I don't believe there are many people who could possibly appreciate every last aspect of what Snyder's unofficial Superman trilogy is accomplishing - a modern perspective on the characters that simultaneously honors their roots, brings them forward into a new century, summarizes their comics history, and explores the nature of myths and gods, how they are born, and all this presented within the framework of an allegory that's telling us not only what our responsibilities are to the "alien," but also what that alien's responsibilities are to us.

It may seem strange, but in order to talk about Superman, first I'm going to have to talk about the Batman. Bruce Wayne, the most "mortal" of DC's core heroes, is also the most fundamental. He embodies the human ideal - the very outer limits of what man is capable of accomplishing by his own will. It is this quality that makes him so resonant with the public, and it also hearkens back to an earlier type of hero - the pulp heroes of the earlier twentieth century, characters like Zorro, Doc Savage, the Shadow, all of them are present in Bruce, and while the Batman's creation wasn't until some years after the debut of Superman, he has long served as the representative for the pulp hero - the man who triumphs through a combination of resourcefulness and determination
Bruce has gone through three major phases over his long comics history. In his earliest appearances, he is virtually indistinguishable from his earlier pulp counterparts, simply a masked, crime-fighting, gun-wielding vigilante with a bat motif, and while both he and his sidekick Robin did maintain something of a cavalier attitude in regards to killing, this phase of their existence didn't last very long in the grand scheme. With the advent of the Comics Code Authority in the mid-50s, killing became largely a thing of the past for the Batman and virtually all other comics heroes, deaths typically being presented as the fault of the victim or through consequences that the hero could do nothing to prevent. It was through this era, the Silver Age, where the hero's depiction reached the height of camp, almost as if the writers, shackled by their publishers and the CCA, were mocking the restrictions under which they were forced to work.

>Social Network might be watchable


Slow down there, user.

Then came the Bronze Age, which saw an increasing amount of violence as the CCA relaxed its restrictions. This era introduced characters that could only be described as hyper-violent, such as Wolverine and the anti-hero the Punisher, and as the violence increased, and the stories became more mature, the age range of comics readers began to broaden. These were no longer strictly stories for children and comics creators reacted to this in a variety of ways. Most notably, Alan Moore gave us his ground-breaking commentary on the dangers of letting our comic-book fantasies escape the page in "Watchmen" and Frank Miller crafted a tale wherein two of comics' most iconic characters came to blows over their differing ideologies - the story he titled "The Dark Knight Returns."

In the tale, we're introduced to an older Bruce Wayne, forced into retirement along with his fellow heroes and witnessing as his beloved city is overrun by a violent street gang. It is this rising tide of violent crime that rouses the Batman into action and into eventual conflict with the Man of Steel. This is a Bruce Wayne striking back against what he rightly labels as injustice and forced into conflict with a Superman who has sold out to the government, compromised his most core principles in service to what he sees as a greater good, a Superman who no longer fights for justice. He is the troubled, reluctant villain of the tale. The street gang that prompts Bruce's response calls itself "The Mutants," and they all wear visors tellingly reminiscent of a certain famous mutant character.

It's a fucking superhero movie, not the Odyssey or othello or some shit, grow the fuck up, BvS will never be what you want it to be no matter how long this meme is forced

As the story unfolds, the compromised Superman is alluded to having relaxed his restrictions concerning violence(having crippled the Green Arrow) and killing(shown in the battle of Corto Maltese). In pursuit of justice, Bruce edges closer and closer to overstepping his own line. He is depicted shooting an anonymous gang member and crippling the Joker before at the close of the story, relenting and allowing his vanquished opponent, Superman, to live. The tale is a beautifully crafted allegory concerning what Miller saw as our heroes becoming increasingly compromised as we as a society more readily embraced increasingly violent heroes as well as an ideological war between factions at work within American society - the American people, their ideals largely uncompromised(as represented by the Batman) and their government(represented by Superman), who insist on seeing themselves as policeman to the world while rationalizing all the "necessary evils" it takes to fill that role. It is a dark, grim tale whose message was largely lost upon its audience, as it, along with Moore's "Watchmen" birthed what we now view as the "modern age" of comics.

These stories, told in the mid-80s, shaped much of what was to come in the 90s. Their messages simultaneously embraced and ignored, we saw the psychologies of the characters becoming increasingly complicated as creators embraced the concepts Moore and Miller introduced to the genre(or at least made famous) - such things as "socially acceptable violence" and "the hero as sublimated villain." The 90s saw the culmination of the trend that began in the Bronze Age of the 70s, with our heroes becoming increasingly flawed, in many cases barely being distinguishable from those whom they fought. Guns! So, so many guns, and in the midst of all this "grit" and "realism," Superman died.

Yeah, they're all just tales meant for children, Nothing to learn here.

You can understand a movie and not like it.

I didn't say they were for children, that's your projection. There are a good number of superhero movies that are above average at least in their own right, BvS is not one of them

>the only time they could ever allude to the classic Mother Box PING
>they don't

FUCK YOU RIGHT IN THE ASS SNYDER

What stream sites even have an option for streaming to your TV? I'd like to start doing that if possible.

Superman, a terrible fit for the 90s era if there ever was one, suffered declining sales across all his titles, so his creators did what it took to boost them back to something respectable. Instead of compromising the character's ideals, they killed him. To be truthful, it wasn't even all that well-crafted a story, but to any long-time fan, it still hit like a ton of bricks. The villain of the tale, Doomsday, was as one-dimensional as villains come - just a killing machine with no back story, no personality, just a plot device, really. The story arc didn't tell us anything new about the characters, didn't fundamentally change any of the players. It didn't really do anything other than what it was intended to do - boost sales and give them an opportunity to introduce some new characters. I know that sounds incredibly cynical, but then again, it was an incredibly cynical time.

Throughout all this, the Batman continued to grow in the public consciousness. Having enjoyed box office success courtesy of Burton's movies, he had quietly started to step into Superman's spot in the American psyche as our representative hero. He was dark, he was broody, he was troubled and noble at the same time, but most importantly of all for that era, he was "real." But would he kill? No. At least not directly, not even in his films. He killed, sure, but in the films it was always by means of some secondary device, never a weapon in his hand. He's blown thugs up, knocked them down stairwells, and on one particularly memorable occasion he decided he didn't have to save someone. In the comics, however, they took a decidedly different route.

The Batman suffered his own death in 90s, albeit in a much more symbolic fashion - Knightfall. The long and short of the story has Bruce Wayne being crippled by the villain Bane and choosing a successor for his role as the Batman in the person of a young man by the name of Jean Paul Valley. Valley(also known as Azrael) was a programmed assassin for a radical religious order whom Bruce had helped de-program. Over his tenure as the Batman, Valley's conditioning intruded more and more to the point where he was rationalizing killing to himself, much to the horror of his partner, Robin, whom he increasingly alienated. Everything about Valley's story arc right down to his morphing appearance as the Batman, was commentary on the state of contemporary comics. It was a way for the Batman's creators to have their cake and eat it, too. Now they had a Batman who embraced the attitudes of the time without compromising Bruce's ideals, all while throwing subtle jabs at their esteemed competitos. In other words, whether or not Bruce Wayne has ever killed in comics after the Golden Age, the "Batman" most assuredly has.

That brings us to the Batman's next major appearances on the big screen - Nolan's trilogy. This was the Batman at his most deconstructed, stripped of all hint of camp, and presented in very "real-world" terms. This was, in essence, the hypothetical of "what if a billionaire really tried this?" He's extremely grounded, and while not entirely without its comic book elements, the trilogy places far more emphasis on this Batman existing in our world, or at least one virtually indistinguishable from our own. In other words, Nolan's Batman doesn't exist in a comic book world.

nice bait

Now I understand why DCucks love this movie.
