Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)


Recommended Posts

You really pulling the last strings of an olden sweater....

You cannot complain about trailer, because it is pretty decent.

You cannot complain about affleck. Since, it looks like he is doing an ok job...

So.... you got nothing.

Ohhh. Wait. you can call him fat. Score!

Good job not impressing anyone ;)

 

good-job for writing a complete lecture, concluding nothing.

The difference between this and Nolan's batman is that his batman was more the "real life" batman. Example his suit was pretty much retrofitted from something else, and no real over the top comic book moments. 

 

Do you think Superman would fit in Nolan's films? No.. 

 

Anyways, Superman > Batman.

 

 

I believe the first major difference between this and Nolans batman suits are the armor.  If you go back and look at the suit Affleck is using, it's got nowhere near the "armor plating" look to it that the above Nolan suit does.  Guys, that's 90% Ben, he's buffed up, look at the comic con panel when he's standing next to Harvy, he's f'ing huge man.   The new suit has very little "padding" and "armor"  It's more like the traditional comic/animated version where it's really just a thin suit and it's shape is mostly just how batman is physically as appose to any rubber or Kevlar armor/padding making him look built/buff.

hey, If I were to get paid millions to bulk up, i'd drink anything

true story bro!   if i can spend, even $10000 on fitness, i will have blood work done daily, and controlled hormone injections.

 

i will certainly look amazing. like i am naturally gifted.  

 

but, it  costs TOO MUCH.

Some of the crew over at Cinefix are doing a "Superheros in training" thing where they are using this guy who basically gets all these actors into screen shape to play whatever superhero it is by doing this massively hard workout regime etc. In about 8 weeks some of these guys doing it look RIPPED and some just look like they lost weight and look way better. So I don't doubt Affleck did somehing to bulk up - whether it was this or not. Because he looks HUGE compared to Cavill.

what?   they mentioned batman :shifty:   just mine thoughs.... on what would really happen.... ;)

 

 

hello?  batman?  this is superman! i am invulnerable. i can fly. i have super speed and super strength. you are dead!

Mad Max: Fury Road proved that you can have an all action film with limited dialogue and still make it compelling, whereas films like Man Of Steel and Age Of Ultron fell flat. To me Superman seemed like an extra in his own film - Zod was the more compelling character.

I don't get that at all.  While I also enjoyed its visual spectacle, I cared for its characters far less than in MOS.  Zod is supposed to be more compelling.

Mad Max: Fury Road demonstrated that you don't need length dialogue to make characters compelling - it's how they're portrayed and their body language. Sometimes having a character say nothing is more interesting. Superman in MoS simply wasn't very compelling or relatable and I'm concerned, based on the trailer, that Lex Luthor won't be either. Certainly he bore little relation to the character I've seen in so many other forms (previous films, comics, TV series, animated films, etc). The action scenes in MoS were terribleand excessive and BvS looks to be going in the same direction.

 

A lot of people are really excited about the trailer but to me it looks to make a lot of the same mistakes of MoS. That said, it's just a trailer and they can be misleading. The only thing that's clear is that the CGI is terrible.

The effects look amazing to me.

Just some scenes, hit something like the same bad point on uncanny valley as scenes in Blade 2/3 (forget which one had the ninja style vampires) and a bunch of other bad CGI in cinema.

Not quite sure what it is, it can't just be the lack of access to the virtual muscle tech used by ILM as plenty of animators have made scenes without such tech that looked more realistic to me.

I don't know, maybe I'm even wrong and it's just that they've overworked the postproduction and actually made the actors and their movement LOOK like it's CGI at those points, heh.

    • Can you still click his nose in the about box?
    • In that case this product has no value to me. I'd rather use older Creative SB that were better in my opinion or onboard audio chip.
