Wait, I though this was an MCU General thread
I just finished watching MoS. I feel that It gets more hate than it deserves and I think it's unfairly shat on. I probably won't watch it again but l was buying what they were selling. With regards to the damage, I think he only brought the fight to th population once and that could fairly be attributed to anger from having to defend his mother. The U.S. Army was way worst but that could be justified. Generally, I don't think there was much to do to stop the violence, Zod would not stop till Earth was terra formed.

Sad Affleck is going to pass the Batman v Superman final trailer in YouTube views today.
All according to plan, right? This was DC's and WB goal?

all part of Marvels master plan for Thor 3

Makes sense. Man of Steel told a story while this movie only pretended to.
Some of the worst editing and pacing I've ever seen in a movie. And the
forced Justice League crap was just so bad and didn't feel natural at all
Lex Luthor was absolutely terrible, like criminally bad.

They hated MoS for being joyless and dour, so I think I know what they're going to think of this one.

Just finished it. Not particularly a DC fan, didn't like MoS too much, was okay.
Thought this was great and I feel that a lot of the negativity towards this film is way overblown, but the complaints are valid.

Well that's a strange thing to say
Good for them.
It won't get any better than this. They played their Justice League card here, and nobody is excited to see more Aquaman.

I assume they mean "it isn't perfect, there are valid criticisms to be made, it also isn't an irreparable unwatchable trainwreck demanding a public execution of Zach Snyder"

Yep.
Tons of people come in and say "the critics we're wrong!" Then say the exact say thing they were saying and basically give the same score.
No. It's terrible unless you want to be bored for 2 and half hours.

Impressions are all over the place. Loving Man of Steel means nothing, they're all over the place in that group too. Good luck!
Question: While MCU has Kevin Feige holding the whole thing together, does the DCCU have an equivalent?
It feels like DCCU is being rushed too much to "catch up" with the MCU, with the way they are already setting up for Justice League. By comparison, MCU started small and gradually got bigger as they slowly set up the whole Avengers thing.
With a strong leader, I imagine that DCCU would have avoided much of its current problems.

Pretty sure Snyder is filling that role.

It's the long con. You set up Affleck as the unfortunate soul whose ambitions were ruined by Snyder and Eisenberg's bumblings, so that everyone feels sorry for him and is happy to just let him do solo Batman movies without asking for the whole Justice League thing.
WB can go back to making profitable and critically lauded Batman movies, without being constantly harassed to "expand the universe" into Aquaman or Cyborg or whatever other lame-duck that's expected as a result of Deadpool and Ant-Man succeeding.
The perfect scheme.

Batman kills,
but outside of blowing up cars, he kills maybe 3 if that
Now the editing and pacing criticism is on point.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
Apparently they did it this way because they are not Marvel. So they released ensemble movie before their individual movies, and also no post credit scene. But deep down inside we all know they are after that pot of gold without the groundwork.
They said the Marvel way isn't the only way for this to work, but we ended up with a movie that suffered from having to juggle several stories, and those jarring dream scenes and that cringworthy awkward JL email scene.
While Age of Ultron made the same mistakes with those Thor scenes too, they were never this bad like the dream scenes we have here.

There's no Kevin Feige figure, the closest one is Zack Snyder, who's a director or producer in most DCEU movies, which is why plenty have lost hope for the DCEU unless Warner announces next week that Zack Snyder is no longer working for them (fat chance)

Yes.
Agreed. Gal Gadot's acting isn't terrible. The material she had to work with is bad.
Rich Evans's laughter lifts my spirits.
