Thought it was terrible. Didn't expect much but that was even worse than I ever thought it could be.

Honestly enjoyed last year's Fantastic 4 more, heck maybe even Green Lantern.

I honestly can't find anything I liked about Fantastic 4
(though their transformation comes the closest).

What a mess. Poor Cavill and Supes, getting next to no dialogue once again to work with. One day we'll get a modern day interpretation that does the character justice.

I can't believe the time and effort spent on building that Senate scene.


That entire scene is the literal antithesis of what Hitchcock spoke about when he referred to putting a bomb under a character's seat in a movie. If the audience knows it's going to happen and the characters don't there's tension in that scene-but if you just have it happen out of nowhere then there's no tension whatsoever.

I just got out of the movie. I thought it was a pretty solid movie. I don't see the hate and I don't get the piss poor reviews. There Is no way this movie should be rated as low as it is compared to so many other movies.

I feel like they could have used at least 5 more haunted dreams

We probably would have had a better grasp on Bruce's psych if
that old man nap he took while files were decrypting was three dreams deep instead of just two.

EDIT: Super minor spoilers.

I thought it was alright. Not terrible. A lot of the time it tells a lot instead of showing.

Luthor is the only thing that didn't quite make sense to me sometimes. I just took it that he inherently saw meta-humans as dangerous for humanity at large and wanted to convince the world of that.

The whole point of the movie was "why would you need a Justice League?" and "who do superheroes answer to?" Snyder kinda made Watchmen again.

Fishburne was the MVP of the movie.

Yah as if the haunted dreams that the audience will have after the movie is not enough.

I wasn't being serious lol. The haunted dreams he had don't even make sense considering this was old Bats. He should have been past that shit, or being haunted by "other" things.

But you know. Snyder and all

That scene is just so odd and bizarre and out of place. Man, it's weird to describe....

Layoff The Spirit guys ;(

Samuel L Jackson in full Nazi gear, I mean lolwut

I couldn't tell you the story, plotline, or anything remotely a coherent arc/scene

I do know it was black & white and had some smoking females that had weird names
 
I just watched it. WTF on the hate for this movie... I'm serious. It was not that bad at all. It story is coherent. 7 or hell even 8 out of 10.

It was definitely better than the Thor movies, Hulk 1 & 2, and Ant-man,
 
Funnier than Deadpool

I just think people are making it out as if you need a PH.D to understand the story. The motivation and story lines are all there. My only real complaint is that it's too long. They could leave some stuff off and it would have been a better movie. This actually makes me worry for a director's cut if it's suppose to add another 30 mins to it.

It's funny to see people suggesting that WB pay Nolan whatever he wants to work on the DCCCU.

You guys know Nolan is filthy fucking rich now right? He made more off of Interstellar than WB did. What in god's name could WB offer him to make him come in and sweep up after somebody else's mess? He already can do whatever the fuck he wants.

And he's choosing to do Dunkirk with a member of a boy band. As a genre film fan it's more than a tad disappointing that he is cashing in some of his chips on that.
