    “Faith, Alfred. Faith.”
    I love Batfleck’s character arc from Batman vs Superman to Justice League. In BvS, he was broken, hateful, and alone. But, Superman’s sacrifice showed him that there’s still good in the world. In Justice League, he’s rejuvenated and enjoys the company of others. He believes in the team, the people around him, he cares for all of them. The final scene with Bruce standing outside, smiling and looking at the sunset, that was brilliant. He knew his parents were proud of him, and he finally found peace.

      Didn't liked it as much as I thought I would. The characters build up of flash Cyborg and Aquaman took too much place in the movie. At the 2nd and 3rd hour I was just wondering where's the action. Its like the story was moving at turtle speed. Didn't liked batman changing his personality, Martian Manhunter introduction. Oh and Jesus batman cowl in the kryptonian ship is just a NO. I thought it was a whedon cut. Nightmare scene was one of the best things of this movie. Flash was great too. Cyborg was great in many ways but in a way leaving flash's story on the side just doesn't make sense to me.
      Wonder woman was great she did a lot. But the team up work wasn't good. I don't like the recent mcu but hell their team up work is much better. Snyder is better at solo movies then movies with several heroes. I'd rather watch bvs. I know it's contradictory but snyder was able to tell 2 stories in 3 hours while in JL, he wasmaking 4 stories in 4 hours while the plot should be centered not put apart.
      *THAT'S WHY YOU MAKE SOLO MOVIES*

Also in man of steel, I believe the black suit was explained as a kryptonian heritage.

Black I believe was representation of going to battle. If it's heritage then that explains both his dad speaking, signifying superman accepted both his heritage full heartedly.

      @theankh2872 Před 3 lety +30

      I think he (and honestly, I too) is never gonna get past the fact that ultimately, both Homecoming and FFH feel a lot like products and entertainment more than the vision of a real person behind the cameras. From I've seen on his videos, Alex in particular is all for movies and cinema being a form of expression for artists, and that's something that Disney's Spider-Man movies have always lacked and will probably always lack: a soul. In this video he basically said it: he might not like Snyder's version of the characters, but at the end of the day is SNYDER'S. Who is Iron-Boy Jr. version of? Certainly not Jon Watts, Kevin Feige? Maybe, but I don't think so; people like to applaud to Feige and everything for doing a successful cinematic universe and I agree, he did an amazing job with that, but ultimately he still responds to the suits on Disney and everything he does is gonna be aimed at pleasing them.
      Zack Snyder, in the other hand, had little to no interference (until JL, of course) and you can see that both his movies and the interpretation of the characters in them are HIS, and I think, again, from what I've seen from Alex, that that's why he will have a hard time accepting MCU's Spider-Man. He is a character that is not only far from his comic book self (if he wasn't he could probably like him at least), but also written by a corporation, not a person, and he feels as such.

      @@theankh2872 I don't know how to feel about Far From Home but Homecoming was a great movie. It felt like a teenage coming of age drama in the skin of a superhero flick. A lot of good movies have done this genre bending/mixing thing - TDK trilogy, Logan, etc.
      The most memorable scene to me is when Liz's father opens the door and Peter beholds the Vulture. There's that moment of 0.0 and a creeping tension permeates, lingering till the end of the car scene - it then immediately translates into another tonal shift as a shell-shocked Peter numbly abandons Liz in pursuit of her father, only to end up buried under tons of rock, at the peak of his emotional turmoil, as if the world's weight was crushing him spiritually and physically. Jesus fuck is that such a brilliant bit of cinema.
      So - idk if that's comic book accurate, but I loved it as a movie-goer's experience. It had character and depth, and I feel that there were real people behind creating it, rather than a corporation.

    At this point, I feel like it’s inevitable that we see the SnyderVerse restored. These movies have generated more noise and garnered more attention than any of WB previous films, and future DC movies to come. If Warner don’t capitalise, it’d be one if the biggest missed opportunities in film history. The money is literally there for the taking.

      Tbh, I wouldn't call it biggest opportunity in film history. HBO max still has less than 100 million subscribers at the moment (only around 40 million at the start of this year). It is hard to say that the amount viewers of Snyder Cut will even match the amount for the theatrical version, especially so when you consider the international markets (many Asian countries are filled to the brim with their own streaming services).
      I saw the Snydercut, and I didn't like it, but it was certainly better than the theatrical version. Many of Snyder's polarizing style is certainly still there and will remain polarizing to the general audience. WB has already tasted some success with their non-Snyder styled films in Aquaman and the new Joker film, and based off of their upcoming slate of films, I don't think that WB is leaning towards the restoration of the SnyderVerse. Affleck has also departed and Pattison is already under contract to play Batman in the upcoming solo flick, and based off of WB's cartoon history (They absolutely hate having two different versions of the same character at a concurrent time). Cavill's status is also up in the air.

The black costume, aside from being a callback to the comics also makes sense from an in-universe perspective because it allows Superman to absorb more of the suns energy more quickly. Along with that, I’m not sure how they want him to be a “beacon of hope” when fighting Steppenwolf. Superman beats the shit out of him because it’s necessary to stop his plan for terraforming the earth and allowing Darkseid to invade.

      True but Spider-Man is not a good example of that because in his personal life he's just a normal kid with the same problems as everyone else. Since his inception he was relatable. Even superman can be made relatable. The only world he's ever known is earth where he was raised from a baby by 2 farmers and had a pretty normal upbringing. Obviously that depends on the writer and to begin with in the 30s he was basically just a god there to save people but I think he's proof that any character can be relatable when you have a good writer. But I agree they don't have to be relatable to be enjoyable. As long as the art is nice, I'm probably gonna enjoy the comic regardless if the characters are relatable

    This movement was about more than just seeing some movie that never truly came out, it’s much larger than. This needs to be a message to studios that THEY are not in charge. Their sole purpose is to fund and make sure their movies are making money THATS ALL. No more no less. Artists must make art, and not a bunch of suits who only care about their own corporate agenda. Imagine in 50 years from now the museum owner tells the painter to leave something out of his mural, or the Producer tells the song artist to make his album more kid friendly to sell more record labels even though he/she is trying to talk about a life experience that occurred to them in their music. That’s such a grim world where art is dictated by companies and it’s a world I don’t want to live in. Say what you want about this film love it/hate it/fucking despise it and want it to burn like it’s original theatrical release, IT NEEDED TO COME OUT. This director suffered the worst pain you can on this earth, the loss of a loved one and a bunch of suits had the audacity to take his vision, shit all over it and make a mockery of his art while handing it over to some hack director who didn’t nearly have the same connection to the cast/characters as his predecessor did. Shame on you WB. #RestoreTheSnyderverse #EndStudioInterference. This industry needs to change and with Snyder cuts releasing, and miracles like that Sonic movie getting reanimated there is hope yet. I’m just gonna say it again #RestoreTheSnyderverse.

    I have a defense for how Lois Lane is portrayed in Zack Snyder's Justice League. She's been on this epic journey with Clark ever since the Man of Steel, through thick and thin, and to see her witness the death of the love of her life is a rather tragic event. Most of her scenes in Justice League are her going through grief, REAL human grief, but is still trying to hold it together by doing something as simple as giving out coffee to a police officer (the way Superman looks out for the little guy) who notices she visits Clark's monument every single day while wearing the wedding ring he gave her. A lot of scenes with her are very intimate and cinematic, relying mostly on visual storytelling and little to no dialogue to showcase her grief. In the larger scheme of things, through Lois, we are also able to tell this world has been losing hope ever since Superman died. Amy Adams excelled well with the little to no dialogue in her scenes. And she still had a role to play in grounding Superman back to his humanity after the Mother Box resurrects him via the will of Bruce and his Justice League.
    I can understand the criticism of how Lois Lane doesn't do much at all in Justice League, but I just hope you can understand where I'm coming from. Basically Lois had a subtle yet powerful role to play in bringing Clark back to who he is.

    The problem with that scene where Batman is threatening the Joker is we don’t have a live action movie of Death in Family to give it context. That was one of the problems with Batman v Superman. Batman was too overdevelopment and too much of his character development was not shown to us. We don’t know why he is so broody entirely because we have not seen his second Robin die yet unless you have seen the animated movie Batman Under the Red Hood. Not all DC audiences have. It is not even cannon with this DCEU. Snyder is trying to make it cannon without showing it to us.

      He made him use guns, he made him kill, he made him brand criminals, and that's the point, his version of Batman (in BvS) was made/thought to be an anti-Batman, because after 20 years spent in Gotham fighting criminals he lost hope and faith in humanity, he basically told you that in 20 years he hasn't done anything that really matters for Gotham or for the world.
      And that was his point, he was lost, and had lost hope, and at the end of the movie Superman's death gives him hope and faith (which is a word that is very used by Batman in ZSJL) again.
