being mad the dream sequence didnt flow well into the other stuff is one thing. Bitching there’s even a dream sequence with fucking batman involved is a whole diff thing. the complaint wasnt about it not fitting into the movie…but bitching batman was floating 5 min in…THATS NOT THE SAME THING YOU’RE COMPLAINING ABOUT.
Nah, that was paranoid, bitter, sociopathic Frank Miller Bats down to a T.
Right down to his hypocritical view of Superman and his methods as a totalitarian do-gooder, whilst he has Gotham’s citizens scared shitless of him and his actions.
I know it’s Miller’s Batman. They dun goofed hard by adapting the “end” of Batman as his starting point in the new universe, but it’s Zack Snyder so yeah.
I don’t understand the decision to make him so old either. Affleck could play someone in his 30s no problem.
Batman has a hatred for Superman in DKR because he’s sick of his shit after decades of knowing him. They tried to go for that same feeling in BvS but Batman hasn’t even met Superman when they have their epic confrontation. Just another example of going for too much to quickly.
I also just want to point out the irony of us having a more intelligent analysis and insight into these characters and their actions than the actual film or director of said film…
I was kind of numb to *some *bad shit in this movie on account of low expectations and having seen Zoolander 2 earlier this year. Now, as I review things, I’m catching more bad flashbacks than a VA hospital.
Spoiler
-Lex says to a dead Zod: “You flew too close to the sun.” Somberly. With a facial caress too, IIRC. What was that? I still don’t know.
-Marvel had movies to introduce the Avengers. DC used an E-Mail to introduce the Justice League. What was up with Aquaman? He stared at the camera for a good 5-8 seconds before doing anything.
-Batman: “I don’t want to kill Superman now, so I’ll just leave this Kryptonite spear I went through so much trouble to create here in the ground. I won’t need that later at all.”
-Lois: “Batman doesn’t want to kill Superman now, so I’ll just throw this green spear of a substance that could have killed Superman into the water. And I’ll somehow know to go get it once Doomsday, who I know nothing about, arises.”
And once again, fuck Lex. I just felt like saying that.
In the last 2 weeks, I bough the Batman and Superman Cereals by General Mills.
Thoughts:
Batman: It states it is “chocolate-strawberry”.
The strawberry is overpowering and the chocolate is dark and slightly bitter like this Affleck rendition of the Frank Miller Batman.
Its very different than most cereals I’ve had.
Grade: 7/10
Superman.This is a caramel flavored cereal with lighter puffier pieces shaped like the s shield, yellow in color.
It is lighter and taste and pretty straight forward. Some have stated it is similar to Waffle Crisp, which I am unfamiliar with.
This cereal would be a favorite of the Golden Age or Reeve superman imo.
Grade: 8/10
I’m more of a chocolate fan and I like atypical stuff, but overall the Superman cereal is better imo.
Every time batman isn’t on screen thats a cue for a toilet break, maybe sneak into another screen that is also showing BvS but started later so you get even more Batman for your buck!
Where batfleck got triggered on “Martha” and pulls a 180, “She wont die tonight, I promise you!”. THEN “Im a friend of your son”… really? You just spent weeks/months seething at the chance to kill this guy and now he’s your friend because your moms share the same name.
Am I the only one wondering why this Oilykroken guy is recording youtube videos and running other electronics in a flooded/flooding/susceptible-to-flooding basement?
