Violator posted:I hope everyone does their part and pays the $15 for a month of HBO Max to support this after all of these years. Still waiting for UK release information. I'll happily pay for it if they give us a means, but if the only place showing it is on the other side of a VPN they've only got themselves to blame

I've been seeing loads of promo mini-stories on it across the usual media sites so it looks like someone in WB is trying to market it at least

Phenotype posted:Another thing I was surprised that carried over from the Whedon version: Superman and friends still don't have to do anything to defeat Steppenwolf, he's just hosed as soon as Superman shows up. I thought it was kinda funny in the original -- Diana and Aquaman are fighting Steppe side-by-side and just barely holding on, and then Supes just pops in and sends him flying with an uppercut and says "hey guys! how can I help?" and they're just like "I guess keep beating the poo poo out of that guy that's stronger than both of us put together." The real dramatic weight of the scene is in Cyborg and the Flash destroying the motherboxes, though I thought the way Superman just turns up and gives a One Punch Man beatdown to the guy the rest of the team united could barely keep up with was meant to be a little disquieting and underline how helpless even Earth's strongest are next to him

Necrothatcher posted:Leto seems like a pretty gross dude, but it's kinda nuts how some art project music festival one-off thing has turned into "he is a cult leader". Very reminiscent of pointing to the 'genuine racism megathread' in FYAD as proof of genuine racism

He really is cultivating a cult leader aesthetic though so I'm gonna have to sit on the fence on this one

Pretty sure the Superman vs Steppenwolf fight is meant to leave a bad taste in your mouth and underline how overwhelmingly powerful Superman is even to the team's other heavies, which given what we know from Batman's visions means they may come to regret reviving him

General Dog posted:The ending and epilogue seem to suggest Batman was right to begin with and should’ve finished Superman when he had the chance. The whole thrust of the knightmare visions seems to be providing the present with the information they need to prevent the bad future from occuring, given it seems there were two more films planned one of them would probably have been the mad max knightmare film and then a return to the present with Darkseid's invasion but preventing the death of Lois, Superman turning evil and killing his comrades and so on. So it's a pretty ambiguous situation they're in, things don't have to go down the same way but he has a brittle psyche right now to say the least and the league really took a gamble in breaking the laws of nature to bring back the guy who can punch really, really good to win a fight for them.

I feel like I would remember that tree, but I guess it depends on the concussion. Everyone else who knew the way was Slayed

They were also really, really struggling with Steppenwolf prior to Superman turning up, the only reason they got that sick fatality on him at the end was because he punched off all of his seemingly inpenetrable armour that had deflected every other attack against it throughout the film. Without Superman just brutalising him for a couple of minutes there was no trident through the back or decapitation

I mean the entire film is Steppenwolf being an absolute unit and barreling through any opposition against him and even in the final battle Wonder Woman and Aquaman are barely hanging in there and can't land a single good hit on him, I really don't think it's unreasonable to take from that that they really did need Superman to make the difference

He sacrificed his career to destroy Joss Whedon, in a way he's more of a Superman than Henry Cavill

Mormon Star Wars posted:Does Superman accept those objectivists viewpoints and gently caress off to Mars leaving the humans to die, or does he reject those viewpoints that his powers give him a responsibility to help people? Seems like that would be avery important piece of information that would make "are these movies about how helping people is morally wrong" an easy question to answer! Pa Kent isn't esposing objectivism anyway, he's just aware that visibly saving people will 'out' Clarke at a formative stage in his life, isolate him from the rest of humanity and make an exceptionally valuable asset for the government to acquire. He's trying to let him have a normal childhood so he can become a well adjusted person and use his powers judiciously, and not develop Homelander Brain

Necrothatcher posted:I don't think it's that ridiculous. The worst Marvel movies are just bland and boring rather than outright bad. But imo that's a worse crime than making complete stinkers. At least films like Catwoman are interesting in a what the gently caress kind of way. Perhaps 'bland and boring' is a type of badness in itself? If a trainwreck like WW84 is more fun to watch than Marvel's The Avengers Neoliberalism Man 4, in what way is it a worse film?

Neurolimal posted:Fwiw WW84 is extremely liberal, and in a more hollow and clumsy way than any Marvel film (except probably Iron Man 2) I'm not saying it isn't, but it was done in such an inept and downright weird way that it's a fun experience to watch and at the very least you can tell it was directed by a human being who was at least trying to communicate something through the film, which is more than you can say about some other comicbook film series 'pipelines'
