But in the comics, Doomsday was essential to the story. He set off that entire plotline. I can't see him serving any other purpose in this one, other than being an excuse for seeing 30 minutes of dumb action.

Other than Doomsday being an existential threat, which he excells at, that takes the League to defeat.  You know...."Rise Of Justice"?

Does anyone else think the exploding Rocket CG scene looks terrible.

Yeah, that's video game level CGI right there. © Zack Snyder 2006-2016.

Well, I guess you're right, there really isn't a good way to bring them together unless you have a threat each can't handle on their own. Still, a freaking monster... It's like Iron Man fighting a robot, how many times have we seen that one.

I am excited about the movie, but I do think they are overdoing it a little. I really wish we had a solo Superman movie to follow up MoS. The appearance of Wonder Woman seems so damned cheesy too.

They're starting Justice Leage and she's a founding member. She also needs to be there to lay down the law when 'the boys' start slamming sausages on the table or do something stupid.

If you think that's annoying, the script leaked a year or two ago and everything in it matches up perfectly with what's already known. Knowing that is truly annoying.

The problem was, it leaked long before the first bit of information came out and before the first teaser. It was thought that it was someone making it up. Only after the trailers started to come out did people realize it was real.

I never even knew a script leaked, also, I've only seen the teaser trailer for SvBDoJ and have never watched the full trailer, I actually stopped watching trailers a long time ago, unless I am sitting in a theatre waiting for a movie to start.

How did they spoil the entire movie? I kinda doubt WB etc would let them just come out and talk about the villain(s) etc, but then again who the hell knows these days. (in spoiler tags please)

Huh?  It wasn't spoiled at all.

It sure felt spoiled to me.

 

Spoiler

They basically laid out the whole plot... Bruce blames Supes for the events of MoS, Lex manipulates stuff so the two of them end up fighting then he unleashes Doomsday and WW won't appear until the end of the film to help fight it.

 

Sure, the trailer kind of alluded to some of that but here they just spelled it all out leaving nothing to speculation.

Fixed that for you :)

 

You shouldn't have had to, it has been working fine after not working for so long, and now it's not working again.

The only thing I did was change the URL.

 

I've found if you use the "share" link provided by YouTube it's a hit and miss (the one that shortens to youtu.be) whereas if you copy the URL straight out of the address bar it seems to work more reliably. It's no issue either way, happy to try where I find anything like that :)

    • Why it's almost impossible to produce a smartphone in the United States

      By WaltC · Posted

      (Topic to get the juices flowing this Sunday morning!...) Actually, the situation has almost nothing to do with "lack of skills", especially since assembly-line skills can be taught to anyone, including Americans, certainly. Rather, the inadequacy-to-impossibility of large-scale tech manufacturing in America today, and the reasons why America finds tech manufacturing completely onerous in the 21st century, has to do with politically driven laws amid a plethora of non-scientific, utterly politicized "science-fact" that is patently false, punitive business taxation at every turn, an array of judicial fines of unimaginable scope and complexity, and, last but not least, American unionization strictures that serve to actually slay job creation and hobble all such manufacturing endeavors in America before they can get off the ground. Globalism emerged, they tell us, as the needed answer to American hubris and an unholy American drive to excel. Unless one is buried under mounds of political propaganda, it's easy to see the absurdity of labeling the employees of SpaceX, for instance, as "unskilled labor"... Etc. ad infinitum. At one time in the recent past, American manufacturing prowess was the envy of the world in a wide variety of technical fields! The current federal and state government roadblocks against America becoming competitive globally in tech manufacturing are considerable, it's true, as anyone with a working brain knows. But remarkably, that is only half the story! The other half of the story is, of course, the corporations themselves... Chinese tech manufacturing is simply unassailable in terms of profits, because the Chinese government wants to see its tech manufacturing second-to-none globally so that no companies/nations can compete in terms of ROI, and China has completely succeeded in that goal. Let's tic-off a few things: *Chinese tariff policies are set according to what is considered best for Chinese business, Chinese employees, and the Chinese people. Huge difference with how things are done with tariffs in the US--as the US government (SCOTUS in this case, Congress in others) plainly feels that tariffs are "unfair" for the limited number of citizens who may pay them, whereas nothing is "unfair" when Congress considers the Personal Income Tax rates to be infinitely hike-able, along with infinitely enlarging annual budget deficits. *The Chinese government boldly subsidizes Chinese companies to artificially amplify their profits. *The Chinese government deliberately refuses to avidly demonize Chinese businesses and does not consider Chinese businesses "the enemy", so very unlike American (D)s these days. *Chinese labor laws and businesses are allowed to set their own labor policies according to what Chinese companies consider is best for companies and their employees... Simply put, American workers in tech manufacturing are not allowed to set their own labor policies! It is the height of hypocrisy for Americans to decry working conditions in China while simultaneously ensuring that American products are manufactured in China, not in the US, simply to maximize profits. There is nothing wrong with making a profit, of course, absolutely nothing. But there is plenty wrong with attempts to normalize hypocrisy of this kind! But rank hypocrisy and the (D) party in the US are longtime bedfellows... The current government in Washington is working overtime to see if it can toss out the horribly poor, failed economic policies of the past, while the (D)s still in Washington work very hard to bring back the stupidity whenever possible. With the right policies in place, America can be an infinitely competitive manufacturer.

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      All these CEOs got the biggest boners thinking about firing employees for AI. Turned out it was just a wet dream.
