Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)


Recommended Posts

I saw the ultimate edition a few days ago and forgot to post about it, this is definitely better, they took out scenes that ended up creating plot holes in the theatrical version of the movie, very stupid.   It would've been better for WB to release this 3hr version from the get go, sure it might have been a issue, some people get turned off by long movies, but they wouldn't have been slammed so much in the end by critics and fans.

I agree.  Not major changes but it did seem to flow much better (particularly the drone part early on).  Did they cut something from the theatrical?  I swear something seemed to be missing.

I don't think the ultimate is missing something the theatrical had, I believe they only added and didn't take anything away.  Heck, even batmans fight in the warehouse to save Martha had new bits to it.   This version gives Superman/Clark more screen time, more development/emotion,  shows more Louis being a reporter, and even develops lex more and flushes out his plan more.

Saw it today. For me it was better than Man of Steel. I mean, it's big, loud, and dumb, but at least the action doesn't leave you wanting to kill yourself just so you can make it stop. It's better in that regard, but yeah, not much else to write home about. I did feel sorry for the kids in the cinema, Jesus, they don't have Batman and Superman anymore, they have utterly violent psychopaths instead.  There were also some parents with really small kids (and I mean really small, like three year old), who deserve to be sterilized. The couple near me spent the first half of the movie actively trying to distract their kid from watching the screen, because of the content on it: deaths, murders, point blank executions, jump scares. They moved to some empty seats luckily so they weren't that annoying, and the kid must have fallen asleep after a while, so it probably won't be traumatized, but that was some grade A parenting right there.

I can't comprehend why parents bring such small kids to movies that are clearly not appropriate for them.  Basically just idiots.

I have to admit, I rather like the Ultimate Edition. I like Man of Steel more, but BvS is no where near the ###### show I thought it was going to be. Plus, they added (from what I understand) a key scene from a certain part they cut for time obviously, and it really helps flesh out Supes more. In my opinion anyways. Also, not sure how long the actual fight between Superman and Batman was in the original version in theaters, but it seemed to be long enough to not get grating and to long.

How are you guys watching the ultimate edition when it's not out until the 19th? :hmmm: :laugh:

 

 

It is available on vudu to purchase and stream(that is where I watched the extended/ultimate cut) and it looks like you can buy it through iTunes.

It's weird but WB put it up on streaming services first and the BD pack later, you'd think they'd release it at the same time but the market is heading more towards streaming than physical media.

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
