The last Third is pretty bad man, not enough to ruin the movie but it's really in Stark contrast to the rest of the good movie

It's not really that bad to be honest. It's not great by any means, but it didn't take away from the movie at all.

 

[Firemind]

Going to walk out if that nanananana moment is in this movie.



There was a leak yesterday that involved Flash singing the title melody or humming, I forget.

We fourth wall now

Difference of opinion I guess, basically e everyone I watched it with was flabbergasted around then.

Spoiler

the final villain in particular being so incredibly lame

 

[J_Viper]

Going from murder Batman to jokey Batman would be weird, yet highly entertaining to me.

Comedic Batman is not a problem because Affleck is a funny dude

It really isn't.

The Ares reveal was a miss, but the rest is fine.

 

[DecoReturns]

Oh I know that. Affleck is pretty good at comedy

It's just tonally since BvS took itself super serious. But shouldn't be bad since I'm expecting mostly sarcastic humor.

 

[Spinluck]

the spoilers I've been reading about it in the other thread in the community section make this movie sound like shit tbh. hopefully its all just conjecture.

I don't think Snyder takes criticism very well and expect lots of more "super deep imagery" and "subtle" jabs at the press and fans as the humor form. I also don't trust the trailers as this series has already shown us

Honestly, even if this film turns out pretty good, it's gonna be hard for me to buy into any possible tonal shifts regarding Batman or Superman's personalities because of what's been previously established.

"subtle" jabs? lol

 

[ZeoVGM]

Jesus this movie is gonna be a mess reading that impression posted on the last page.

Throw in IM3 for me and you're on the money.

Can't throw in the best Iron Man movie!

 

[Ahasverus]

The movie leans on Batman for the comedic parts and it's awkward.

What the fuck? no really, What the fuck? WHAT ARE YOU DOING DC!!

Screw this and screw everything. You don't do that to Batman. Fuck. You. WB executives.

And especially fuck Joss Whedon. Hack.

 

[Ashhong]

Well, the last probably 1/4 of the film was garbage so those early screenings are used to try and fix things. They fixed most of the movie so it's not unreasonable to say that the movie was really bad at first.

Garbage? Really? lol. And it's pretty unreasonable to think that a movie went from really bad at a test screening to great. That's not how it works

 

[WhateverItTakes]

the spoilers I've been reading about it in the other thread in the community section make this movie sound like shit tbh. hopefully its all just conjecture.

The spoilers for the Cursed Child made it sound pretty crap but people who've seen it really rate it. Maybe not the same. I'm expecting a 6/7 out of 10.

 

[Veelk]

Lol.

Depends on how they do it, but for me the best batman humor comes from his seriousness, so I hope that's how it happens.

 

[TI82]

"subtle" jabs? lol

Maybe throwing a rotten tomato at a reporter

So many good movies were saved after really bad test screenings that I won't even bother listing them. Seriously here's a cracked article on just a few.

It's not even the last 3rd (ie the last 40 minutes... it's the last 10 minutes) and even that isn't enough, like you said, to ruin it.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Lol.

Yeah.

I mean, Batman was sometimes a funny guy in The Animated Series, which is usually agreed to be the best version of Batman.

I hope his him trying to ease up and work well with others.

 

[PanSexual_Peacock]

Ben has said countless times that's exactly what Bruce is trying to do in this film.

 

[opoth]

I've learned never to trust these things ever since Attack of the Clones was gushed about as "fixing" the previous movies mistakes.

Never again.

Half true. It fixed them, but created new ones in the process.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Honestly, even if this film turns out pretty good, it's gonna be hard for me to buy into any possible tonal shifts regarding Batman or Superman's personalities because of what's been previously established.

So it'll be just like how Batman acts differently in Batman comics and Batman/Superman comics and JL comics?

 

[Ashhong]

None of those examples seemed to be "really bad" movies that were saved. It was a specific thing that was changed and it made the movie better. Except for maybe Anchorman. My point still stands regarding Wonder Woman.

 

[DecoReturns]

Awesome.

Don't really keep up with films cause I like being in the dark most of the time

 

[KillLaCam]

So its back to being just another super hero movie?

 

[Ashhong]

So its back to being just another super hero movie?

Pretty much this.

 

[Blader]

Bruce has been pretty jokey in the trailers ("I hear you to talk to fish", "I'm rich," "Maybe temporary", etc.) so the movie leaning on Batman for humor isn't that unexpected.

So its a normal super hero movie?

Well it's Justice League, so yes, it's a superhero movie

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I hope his him trying to ease up and work well with others.

I think that was mentioned in one of the trailers.

So it'll be just like how Batman acts differently in Batman comics and Batman/Superman comics and JL comics?

I get your point but comics are... y'know, comics. They're numerous and have been handled by so many different people. This is a direct sequel to a movie that established certain themes about it's universe and characters, so it's just gonna feel a little jarring for me (if they indeed go that route).

I'm probably just nitpicking now, though. I hope the movie is good.

 

[Apt101]

The screenings of BvS resulted in glowing opinions. We saw how that turned out. I no longer trust these things.

 

[PanSexual_Peacock]

Awesome.

I think more jarring will be the difference in Supes. Batman had the "I thought she was with you" line in BvS and then you can see some change in Bruce at the end. Natural progression I think

 

[Cipherr]

Update: It's further said that a Superman fan that was not happy with Man of Steel or Batman vs. Superman loved Justice League, so take that for what it is worth.

Good Taste Confirmed!
THAT DOES IT FOR ME! Fucking HYPE!

 

[DecoReturns]

I just realized. All three of Zack's DC movies involve catastrophic damage

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I'm still sad about Batman killing people, honestly. But yeah, Superman is definitely gonna be the most jarring change. His brooding could've given Batman a run for his money.

 

[LotusHD]

So its back to being just another super hero movie?

As opposed to what lol

 

[Ashhong]

I just realized. All three of Zack's DC movies involve catastrophic damage

What was there in BvS? They specifically went out to an empty area blah blah blah. Looks like JL will be in a deserted area also

I'm still sad about Batman killing people, honestly. But yeah, Superman is definitely gonna be the most jarring change. His brooding could've given Batman a run for his money.

I'm ok with that, but it definitely seems like they fixed that part of Batman for you whiners out there

 

[ZeoVGM]

So its back to being just another super hero movie?

I mean, BvS was "just another super hero movie."

Except it was a bad one.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

As opposed to what lol

 

[Wag]

Ill watch it for aquaman

Aquaman is surrounded by seamen.

 

[Ashhong]

Aquaman is surrounded by seamen.

Absolutely nothing wrong with seamen.

 

[KillLaCam]

Edit: I liked Man of Steel but not BvS. Didn't like that at all

As opposed to what lol

Something that doesnt resemble a Richard Donner superhero movie

Naw, Id never go that far lol

 

[eatingforwork]

Can't trust these early reactions anymore. Man of Steel had really positive early reaction buzz during screens and look how that turned out...

 

[IconGrist]

If even half of what I read about JL turns out to be true I just might skip this movie altogether. Which pains me greatly since the only miss for me so far has been Suicide Squad.

 

[a916]

Can't trust these early reactions anymore. Man of Steel had really positive early reaction buzz during screens and look how that turned out...

It turned out amazing!

 

[Bleepey]

Jokey batman is far closer to actual batman than whatever that thing was in BvS.

All Star Batman was murdery and a joker. I love the God Damn Batman

 

[MisterHero]

I'm gonna watch it to express my disgust throughout the internet.

 

[Switch Back 9]

Y'all love Iron Man 3, the boringest most lame superhero movie ever, and yet we'll get multiple pages on BvS.

 

[spootime]

Y'all love Iron Man 3, the boringest most lame superhero movie ever, and yet we'll get multiple pages on BvS.

I think batman vs superman is absolutely terrible but I would watch it over iron man 3 any day of the week.

 

[Data West]

VERY COOL

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I'm ok with that, but it definitely seems like they fixed that part of Batman for you whiners out there

 

[DeathyBoy]

All Star Batman was murdery and a joker. I love the God Damn Batman

Best Batman

Should've been ASBAR Bats played by Clive Owen in BvS
