I hate spiders but would probably risk it if the planet I lived on was at risk. Weird character trait that probably could use a modern shakeup tbqh.

The nerd projection on to Snyder is the funniest thing in the world. I wonder what portion of the criticism would disappear if he looked like Joss Whedon.

MOS is pretty clearly environmentalist and anti colonial. You probably can’t get Russel Crowe to be in a pro fascist movie. But because Snyder said he appreciated Rand it MUST BE an objectivist story.

I hope he makes the Rand adaptations and it’s forty minutes of Galt pissing himself in slow motion.

Important to keep in mind that Snyder also has studied art at a minimum college level so is probably aware of things being able to be nuanced.

All that soft light and renaissance posing is no mistake. Excalibur being referenced everywhere in BvS is also a blatant comment on morality and subjectivity. Things can be bad and inspiring. Bad poo poo is real and pretending that seeing Metropolis getting microwaved like a spoon is alarming and intense. It’s like that on purpose.

The main thing that’s really truly endorsed in his DC films is sex with very muscular men. I’m sure there’s a property out there that could synergise with that strength. Perhaps whatever Jo Jo is.

302 is not an aspect of 300 it is a sequel and was not considered at all when 300 was made. This is important to remember in a streaming serial world.

He co-wrote it, so yes.

Also, 302's end credits song is a remix of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs." They knew exactly what they were doing.

It owns when a movie actively disrespects the audience

So what’s the consensus on Sucker Punch then?

300 is satiric, MOS is misunderstood. What’s the story with SP.

Bruce Wayne is supposed to be the peak of physical condition. That said, what does that look like? I remember a set of photos displaying the physics of Olympic athletes from many different sports, and there was a huge variety of physics displayed depending on what the person specialized in.

He’d look like a young Jackie Chan.

BvS owns look at how great the lighting is on that top shot. I do hope they release a good version of JL. I’ve seen BvS two or three times in the ultimate edition form but missed JL. If they do drop a Snyder version I’ll for sure check it out.

I’ve tried to figure out how to read DC comics in the past but I can’t get a handle on the New 52, Crisis on XYZ etc etc grouping. Comics need to be streamlined as an industry.

A monthly year long schedule is crazy. Limited series make so much more sense. Comics are kinda mostly lovely which doesn’t help.

Funny and sad that the same problems that plague comics (insane continuity, weird reinterpretations, creator switches) now are mirrored in the adaptations.

I don’t think it needs support I think this is a phoney grass roots movement and a pretty cynical marketing stunt. I want to see the movie but it’s a bit gauche to pretend that this is not planned by WB.

John Wick of Dogs posted:

There's a Smallville of all things where a Zod based cult is building a tower that will give him his Kryptonian powers back after he had been made mortal. They tell Clark there's nothing he can do about it, it's all legal.

Clark says "ok gently caress that I'm not going to just watch them bring back Zod" and destroys the whole thing with heat vision from a nearby tower. The reviewer for the show from the largest Superman fan site of the time quit in disgust at this lack of respect for property rights.

:gop: this one is incredible. I’d rather be enslaved by aliens than see someone’s property rights disrespected.

Tom Cruise is x or y as a person or an actor but if you put on one of his movies at random there’s a better chance it’ll be somewhere from good to great than any other actor, probably ever.

I don’t understand how people slavishly excavate MCU movies for hidden secrets but are certain that Snyder or Bay accidentally made anti-war movies. Are directors capable or not, internet ??
