Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice THREAD

[verslibre]

I'm as much of a Tim Burton fan as I am of Obamadingdong. So keep grasping at straws. The real issue is the trainwreck currently being filmed by Snyder and Co. Aquaman is pissed because the world engine disturbed all the carp and the salmon in the ocean? This sounds like Z-level garbage. No wonder Christopher Nolan bailed.

Cool story bro. So it's easy. Don't go see it and GTFO. Lawls. As for Nolan, he's the one that actually went to WB to perk their ears up to actually lift Man of Steel off the ground after Goyer notified him with his idea of Superman. You know that...right? And after Snyder pitched his last idea to kill of Zod, he gave him the greenlight to do it. You know that, right? Though Nolan is now beyond superhero movies within his realm of directing, Nolan's basically the reason why this garbage is happening and continuing to begin with.

'Xactly. I even detailed Goyer's path to MoS back in this thread. And for all the Goyer-hate, people must remember...HE and Nolan wrote — yes! wrote! — the last three Batman films. What, do some 'round here have the attention span of a 3-week-old puppy or what?

P.S. Zack's remake of Dawn of the Dead, a film that's near and dear, was surprisingly good. Better than I'd anticipated (and it didn't copy the original scene-for-scene, either).

Re: Nolan's Batman movies.

Yes, I know the Chris & Jon Nolan did the screenplays for the 2nd & 3rd, but Goyer provided the story. Goyer did write both the story & screenplay for Batman Begins.

Just keeping it out there for whom it may concern.

Yup and Begins is the weakest of the trilogy. Out of the Blade trilogy, only the 2nd is good due to Del Toro's rewrite. Goyer blows.

I have heard zilch about Nolan producing B v. S. You have posted NOTHING contradicting that.

You're on crack. All three BatNolan films are excellent. And the first Blade is the only good one.

Goyer was Nolan's boy. Now, Goyer is mainly going to be a producing figure in this cinematic universe. Goyer wrote the screenplay, but Terrio was brought in to overlook it and put his writing credentials onto the project and more than likely, on all the DCCU films. Terrio is unreal and BvS will be tightened up without a shadow of a doubt. They have a great team. Snyder got his original cinematographer back for this project and the team of Affleck and Terrio behind the scripts and input behind the camera will do NOTHING but make BvS top notch. Add in Snyder's visuals and SIAHNARA.

Bad dog. Nolan was a producer on MoS and he is again (exec. producer) on the new movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2975590/fullcredits?ref_=tt_cl_sm#cast

Oops!

Not a big fan of Begins, Neeson's mustache twirling take on Ras is especially hammy and clashes with what is otherwise a gritty urban reboot. Not a fan. Jonathan Nolan saved the day with the next two films.

Imdb is the Wikipedia of movies. Not official. Nolan may still be involved, but I've heard nothing in the media about it.

Not a big fan of Begins but you complimented Green Lantern as "another fine Martin Campbell film"? Geddoudaheah!

There's nothing hammy or campy or corny or cheesy about Begins. Nada.

Define "media."

Warner Bros' initial July 2013 press release listed Nolan and Thomas as executive producers.

A rumor circulated that Nolan may have left his e.p. role to focus primarily on Interstellar but nothing was confirmed and it appears he is still attached.

Btw, IMDb is a very good source for info. No reason to whizz onnit.

Much on IMDB is user submitted. That's just a fact. But keep pretending to know everything. If that's what u need to feel special and important in life, more power to you.

If you say so. Anyone familiar with Goyer's filmography knows he's responsible for more misses than hits. Begins has some good stuff in it, and alot of stuff that doesn't work. TDK got everything rite tho. As for Green Lantern...yea, I thought it was a good movie. Martin Campbell is a dying breed of action director who can let a scene breathe for longer than thirty seconds. Snyder should take his ADHD meds and take a few pointers.

Says the guy who refers to himself as "all-knowing."

So, All-Knowing One...where's your irrefutable source that says Nolan is most definitely NOT a producer of any kind on BvS? Since you're the one that brought it up...

GL looked like it could have been directed by anybody. Nothing special there. He's an okay director who manages to do something cool here and there, like Edge of Darkness. He's directed two different Bonds, and Casino Royale was a clear improvement over GoldenEye, the latter having more of a "TV movie" feel to it (TV being where he got his start). Legend of Zorro was entertaining but that's a movie you never feel like watching again.

The entire point of this forum or thread is to simply update what's going on with this movie no matter if the whopping 5 posters that still post here are interested or not. That said, most of the participants in this thread, including yourself, keep the forum going with topics and believe it or not, we've actually have had some good and interesting discussion's because of it. Don't care, don't post. I don't give a shit, I have forums that are LITERALLY 500 people deep daily talking about this movie. All I do is bring news here in case anyone is interested and I'll continue to do that.

Seriously, just the other day brought in over 100 users just from a rumor about Lex Luthors hair, lmao. Anything regarding rumor with BvS brings in massive traffic all over the web.

Nobody gives a shit about this shit sucking movie. "Batman vs Superman vs Cyborg (who the fuck is cyborg?? lol)" is shaping up to be the Ishtar of superhero films, just a cosmic tragedy of errors. Goyer managed to kill off his own successful franchise with Blade 3 and is following his own self-destructive tendencies again. They might as well throw in a Shaquille O'Neal cameo reprising his acclaimed turn as the comic character, Steel.

Now THAT was a great Russell Crowe movie! One of my top 5 in any genre.

[RedWingFan]

I think it speaks volumes that you think this forum is the Center of the Fucking Multiverse, when it isn't a kernel in a micron-sized turd that broke off a dingleberry formed by the shitpipe of the InterWebs.

There's tons of talk all over — just not here, if your "all-knowing" ass can fathom that.

(And if you didn't care, you wouldn't be commenting.)

Man, ur pretty touchy and insecure about MOS's popularity (or lack thereof). Contrary to what you say, I think MR and this forum is a good cross-section of the public at large.

This is true. Me and TNC haven't agreed on 1 thing in my years on this forum.....until this. MOS sucked. Thus, it must be true!
Hey, it makes more sense than, "Let a bus full of children/classmates drown" then run into a tornado to save a flea-bitten mongrel.

Actually it does. Jonathan lived up to his word when he was the one that issued Clark not to save him. Jonathan never told Clark to not save those children. Jonathan's entire point was that Clark was too young to handle the burden of being the first known alien to come out of the woodwork and how he wasn't ready for how people viewed life as we know it. He just wanted young Clark to do it in a more careful way of not being seen. He always knew it was going to happen, but only when Clark was ready and old enough to handle the aftermath because there's no going back. Ironically, Zod's appearence forced Supes into the descision and Supes turning himself in was the deciding factor.

Superman Returns sucked too. Every Superman movie since Superman 2 has sucked. When was that made? 1980? That's 34 fucking years.

Don't tell me you liked Green Lantern, too. Geez, Luis.

The bottom line is that most people got turned off because Supes gave Zod a terminal massage.

The "other" bottom line is that there are still quite a few people who think Superman should remain a cartoonish Boy Scout type. How boring would that be?

If you didn't like any part of MoS, you're lying. It was right up there with Avengers in terms of action and FX.

No way. The fx in MOS wasn't good. The fight in the ihop comes to mind. There was no sense of gravity or weight to them. You should be ashamed of yourself for mentioning that movie in the same sentence as the Avengers. I did say the opening scene on krypton was cool.

Puhleez. The FX in Avengers weren't entirely perfect, especially where/when the Hulk (who is all-CGI) was in shots with human actors.

No "sense of gravity or weight"? That's funny.

The Avengers had Joss Whedon. MOS had David Goyer. MOS needed a rewrite. Dont get me wrong, I liked some of it. Once Zod came to earth with the world engine or whatever, I tuned out. It felt like the film made a wrong creative turn from comic hero origin story to War of the Worlds 2, or something.

Okay, let's hear your idea(s) about where the film/story should've gone.

Haven't given it that much thought. Just know the movie didn't work for me in the same way recent comic films like XMen: DOFP, and TAS2 did. I'll rewatch it at some point, and get back to you.
