Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I don't disbelieve Snyder is an "artist" in the broadest definition. He's certainly not a journeyman. But the works he creates would be best described as kitsch, a whole ironic art branch of its own. Smeltington and Arpy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn’t contradict anything you have said, but here’s HBO Max’s official twitter with a promo image in b/w. So there’s definitely a “mix” in how the movie is marketed - it’s not very congruent. @DarthDementous I got it. 😉 DarthDementous 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes of course. I haven't seen any official images in color from anyone really, but I guess my point was to show that the whole Black & White thing started with Snyder and I imagine the posters and promo images have followed suit. Snyder, though, is committing 100% to the b&w stuff while HBO Max is putting trailer out in color, I assume, to avoid confusion (since the film will ultimately be in color) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,499 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Let me get this straight. Any one of those people could take on their enemies, and defeat them singlehandedly. If that's so, then why are there six of them? I mean, Superman flew a nuclear rocket out into space, then saved California from an earthquake, then turned the fucking world back in time, so that none of that shit happened in the fucking first place, before capturing the bad guys, and taking them - personally - to prison! Why does he need five others?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmilson 7,393 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Because in the 1960s some editor saw that comics that team up two or more heroes had great sales, so they decided to put all the major DC heroes in one single powerful group. Then Marvel saw that the Justice League comics were selling very well and asked Stan Lee to create their own group of super-heroes.

Some will say it’s a marketing stunt, but I highly doubt they would risk getting in trouble for that by playing an R-Rated movie in place of a kids film. Especially when it comes out next Friday, too. It’s unfortunate, I agree. Especially because, as far as I’ve heard, no one actually got to see it all the way through. I’ve heard it cut off at the 90 minute or so mark. There’s tons of clips and images floating around too. Oh well. I didn’t see it, but I will next Friday. Cant look away lol.

mstrox 6,647 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Unsurprisingly, there is a nice cross-section of Snyder goons and idiot conspiracy theorists.

Edmilson 7,393 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I've seen some nutjob on Twitter saying that he managed to watch the first hour of the movie and it was the best DC movie ever made. He was praising the movie, until I remembered that I don't take seriously opinions of people who think BvS is a great movie.

rough cut 1,714 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 For what it’s worth, I hope it’s good, and that that it in turn will lead to more good movies. I really liked the last slew of DC flicks (haven’t seen WW84 yet, but I’m counting WW (the first one), Aquaman, Shazam and the original (yeah, I said it!) Justice League. Getting a Snyderversified movie at this point, when the DCEU is finally free of Snyder and his Snyderisms seems like a step backward. But whatever. Here’s to hoping! As a phenomenon - a petition-turned-reality, a rare see-what-could-have-been, an official-and-alternate-version of that thing we loved to hate - I think that the Snyder cut should have a pretty big pull in it’s target audience. But if the movie, or part of it, leaked, and people think that WB did that intentionally... that’s the most stupid thing I’ve ever heard.

TSMefford 1,509 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 These fanboys are ridiculous and have shown from the beginning that they haven't a clue how filmmaking works. They insisted that there was a 100% completed Snyder Cut (there wasn't) and they insist that WB is hiding some big masterpiece. Now, they insist WB/HBO is purposely trying to kill it? Lol.

TSMefford 1,509 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 What a poorly paced scene. You're telling me Superman stays in his landing pose for a solid 20 seconds so we can have everyone react and prep? I know it's a dream, but still.

TSMefford 1,509 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 To be clear. I don't want to hate this movie, but I did not like Man of Steel or Batman V Superman and it's quite difficult for me to think I might like this film after seeing those two. I'll have to do my best to try and watch it with an open mind, but just from an editing standpoint that scene doesn't paint the most optimistic picture. It could easily just be that moment out of 4 hours that is poorly paced though...who knows. In the end, good for Snyder and good for his passionate fans, but I also know I probably won't like it. Plenty will though, so I'm happy for those that will enjoy it. bruce marshall 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
