A lot of these comic book movies are too long, and plodding.

I don't have skin in the game, concerning DCEU v. Marvel. Honestly. ..couldn't care less. I find the genre saturated, and hokey. The impetus is $$$, not story, art, or anything that explores, or furthers the human condition in a PROFOUND way...they are merely 120+ minutes of explosions, deception, fabricated drama, and thinly executed romance.

Hey, but if that's your jam...have at it. :lol: :lol:


Yeah, we know the Bond and Bourne and Star Bores flicks and Cameron's upcoming Avatar sequels are all about "art." :lol:

Maybe you didn't get the memo, but The Dark Knight single-handedly elevated the CBM genre to another level and won it more respect and kudos than any film before it. Why do you think it's on that list?


Did you mean AVATAR, or Ferngully? :lol:

That is because you are in denial that the Joker and Heath Ledger's death elevated the series. The other two movies are good but not that much better than anything else.

Except for the part about Batman Begins being the best origin CBM.

IMHO, the first Iron Man is the best origin story.

You need to watch the Ultimate Edition of Batman v Superman. My guess is you've only seen the theatrical version.

The story in Civil War isn't anything genius-level. It forces many a contrivance in order to get from Point A to Point B.

BvS has the single best action scene between both movies, too. Zack's the man when it comes to fight choreography.



Zack's best movie is SUCKER PUNCH.

Wow...thanks for setting me straight. Let me note that.

Hilarious. I LOL'd all the way through that. "Tracking device?!" :lol:

I also like this one guy's response in the Comments:

Boring people hate. Simple as that. They will use hate to seem different and seem as if they are "standing" for something. But really, they are just boring.

Which pretty much sums up BvS in one sentence...since that is what 90% of the movie is about....people hating S. B hating S. Lex hating both. The fire monster hating everything.

BORING.

When the JL pic was released, I remember immediately saying that there was something about Batman's cowl that reminded me of Nite Owl. There's no question this time!
