    I can't even throw a punch, that bitch would laugh at me if I tried. :D

    Origins can be tricky in that situation. I think they gave Barry too much back story. His dad part makes sense as it shows his motivation. The part with the girl was a waste of time. 

     

    I'm still scratching my head about that stupid terrorist scene where the plan was to set off a bomb that would level a couple of blocks yet set Europe in to the "dark ages" . 

     

    I guess it's a way to show terrorists without connecting them to any modern day ideology

    i just read online a few minutes ago about how Ridley Scott's director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven is like a "completely different" movie than the original theatrical version.

     

    so i want to go see that now.

     

    the most crazy example i ever heard was that HBO documentary show where Ben Affleck and Matt Damon pick a writer's script and they have him film his movie, Project Greenlight.

     

    That movie was supposed to be a coming of age drama, and it was supposed to be serious. And apparently the movie just sucked. It just didn't work.

     

    So they re-edited the movie to be more like a comedy. Not raunchy or anything, but definitely more light-hearted. And it turned out to be a decent, watchable movie.  The Battle of Shaker Heights, starring Shia Labouf and Amy Smart.

     

    Kingdom of Heaven after the new cut went from his worst movie to maybe his best movie. It's insane.

    Lol I'm confused. Like only Snyder movie has ever gotten good reviews but that's fine because they were limp wristed, feminist vegans who couldn't handle his pubescent macho energy. 

     

    Now one review says it's better than Avengers and you act like you lost your virginity. 

     

    so mad :D

    He gets panned because he's a terrible story teller. 

     

    :D You keep saying that yet he apperently told a better superhero team up story in one 4 hour movie than Marvel managed with 4 Avengers movies. 

     

    BTW Those aren't my words

    But the other way the experience of “Justice League” is shaped by timing is that now that Snyder has restored the film to its pop operatic grandeur, it strikingly echoes the sinister extravagance of the “Avengers” saga.

     

    “Justice League” accomplishes in four hours what those films did in nine

    Yeah I saw the Donner cut way back when I was renting blu-rays to test out the new PS3.

     

    Its a solid movie, the encounter and eventual takedown of Zod is rather predictable, but they avoid doing anything stupid.

     

    The more I think about this, the more I only blame Snyder for half of this, and not give him full blame.

     

    The Marvel movies best trick is that they hide the disney-fication. The Warner bros. DC movies make no such attempt at Disney-fying anything.

     

    That's a double-edged sword because on paper, the Warner Bros. execs will say "if we make comic book movies, then lets just design the movie around that demographic" and that leads to more-bleak-than-usual and brooding superhero narratives.

     

    Also, if you notice. The DC movies don't have accessory characters to help deliver comic-relief. Marvel movies are like putting a superhero around 4 or 5 actors that would be in a sitcom (think TV show Buffy being surrounded by 5 people who have no powers)

     

    Batman is surrounded by just Alfred, Commissioner Gordon is not going to provide comic relief. Superman is almost always operating by himself. Only when Clark Kent is at The Daily Planet do we actually get some pleasant scenes (not many of them in BvS).

     

    Also, here's the other major Disneyfication in Marvel movies: innocents don't die.

     

    And the more you think about it, the stupider it feels to watch Marvel movies.

     

    Seriously? Nobody died at the 2012 Battle of New York? OH, that big flying creature was only nicking at the corners of buildings, and windows, and he fell on the roof of a building.

     

    Nobody died at Sokovia besides a handful of people? Oh, they brought these big-ass ships to get them off.

     

    It wasn't until Civil War where Scarlett Witch threw a suicide bomber up higher and he did what? Like blow up two apartment units? And killed like 10 people?

     

    And ONLY THEN were the world governments like "this is too much!!" and Tony Stark was agreeing with them?

     

    If Zack Snyder did that with Batman and Superman fighting a real city-wide threat, comic book fans would absolutely slaughter him. You just can't do that.

     

    Yea but if you recall critics panned snyder for "too much destruction and casualties" in Man of Steel. Which makes no sense there are aliens fighting.
