The trailer looks beyond lame :/

Im getting spoiled by Nolan's and Snyder's approach to comics. Everything else seems to be made for preteen.

Iron Man would like to disagree with you on that. Though not as plot complex as Nolan films, they're still pretty darn good.

Thats right, I forgot about Iron Man, I enjoyed those, but not as much as Batman, Watchmen or Sin City.

The thing with TDK, it's so mentally draining compared to IM. Some people like to be mentally challenge throughout the film, while others like to sit back and enjoy a somewhat mindless comic book movie. Watching both IM films, I didn't want it to stop. So much fun.

And this time I dont agree. Batman, yeah, its tense but I dont think it's mentally draining, its just a tense rollercoeaster. Watchmen it is mentally draining, maybe even Sin City, but Batman dont.

I like my superheroes flawed and human. Maybe that's always why I loved Batman.

Yeah I hope even if they aren't directing they get to oversee the movies leading up to justice league.

sucks

Its like this

but with some CGI. They believe that if they contract some "good" actors (note the quotes) and add some graphics, they will have a hit. Who knows, the ppl is stupid by definition.

does that include you, or you just like to state your opinion as fact? people have different tastes, deal with it.

I think it's kind of sad that these two film-makers are the pinnacle of comic book based films. I mean Nolan has some taste at least, but Snyder?

How's that Snyder has no "taste"?

It's like Snyder's whole thing about making films is to make them so "badass" to the point of being ridiculously hammy and bombastic. Watchmen is a film I really want to like but there is so much done in bad taste; like he has no aesthetic principles beyond "cool" that I find it difficult to like.

    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
