DC Movies - 2020


Recommended Posts

Love Patty Jenkins:  

The Justice League? … No, I think that all of us DC directors tossed that out just as much as the fans did. But also, I felt that that version contradicted my first movie in many ways, and this current movie, which I was already in production on. So then, what are you going to do? I was like… you would have to play ball in both directions in order for that to work. The only thing I have done, and have always tried to do, is -- I knew, when Zack was doing Justice League, where she sort of ends up. So I always tried… like, I didn’t change her suit, because I never want to… I don’t want to contradict his films, you know? But yet, I have to have my own films, and he’s been very supportive of that. And so, I think that that Justice League was kind of an outlier. They were trying to turn one thing into, kind of, another. And so then it becomes, ‘I don’t recognize half of these characters. I’m not sure what’s going on.’

The thing about the "Release the Snyder Cut" people is, when it was announced that the Leto Joker would be back, they got excited. They like the Leto Joker. That's who we're dealing with here.

We saw about three minutes of Leto's Joker so I don't see how anyone could make a fair assessment and that was after studio involvement. 

If you thought Man of Steel sucked and BvS sucked you are going to think this sucks.  It's more of the same but obviously there are plenty of people who like it and none of us are the authority over what's good or what's not good.  There are other options out there.  People who waste their time watching things they hate are worse than people who waste their time watching things they enjoy. 

Detractors aren't smarter  than the Snyder Cut people.  The 'Snyder Cut' people actually got what they wanted out of their campaign. That is a victory for them and a loss for the people who wanted Snyder to go away.  

And no I personally did not ask for the Snyder Cut to see the light of day.  I can live with Whedon's mess,  I saw it once, that was enough.  But it does put a smile on my face that it's coming out.  If nothing else it irritates those who didn't want it to come out.

Stuff like this is why I'm thrilled that they're releasing this monstrosityThese things are drama machines. 

I'm replying to a take that states the people who launched the "Snyder Cut" campaign are idiots. Maybe they are idiots I don't personally know them but the campaign succeeded and the people who didn't want it to are still complaining about it..   that makes them worse.  They are upset because a movie is coming out. You do realize this yes?  They are mad because a movie is being released.  ?

The only good thing about no HBO Max in Canada is it removes any temptation I may have had to watch this and have a chuckle. 

Now watch it be the one thing that actually ends up on Crave immediately...

There are other ways to watch it and I'm sure you will find them. ?

Batman is going to say Fuck! BEST MOVIE EVER!

For the record, I don't think anyone's mad and angry about the Snyder cut existing at all. It's more of a mocking bemusement that the Snyder fans would be so intensely passionate in their belief that an absolute car crash of a movie is in any way salvageable. They're like Dolph Ziggler fans or something.

They are both angry and sad. Superheroes that say 'Fuck' are more realistic than superheroes that don't say 'fuck'.  I like my superhero movies to be more grounded in reality. I'm pretty sure if Darkseid and the parademons attacked earth there'd be a couple "oh shits" flying around in the process as well.  I'd advise Goyer or whoever wrote this to put that in the script.

You're spending too much time watching superhero movies that want to treat alien invasions like they are a laughing matter.

I'd punch it up and have Aquaman inject heroin into his cock. Maybe have the Flash deliver one of Joe Pesci's rants from Casino. Make sure people know they're watching something grounded and mature. For adults.

Maybe in the Uncut Snyder Cut.

"Grounded in reality" with "Darkseid and the Parademons". Yup.

That's no way to talk about a man that James Cameron once called a 'genius'.  Accept the L.

Deferring to the Oscars and James Cameron because people enjoy dunking on the Sucker Punch guy is some weak tea. Rather than continuing to defend the merits of the things you like, you're hiding behind these things that you think confer authority. That's sad. That's as sad as Ben Affleck doing press for Batman vs Superman.

It's not that *I* personally think the Oscars and James Cameron have an authority..  you quote reviews and stats from Rotten Tomatoes as an authority.  That's the road that you and others chose to travel. ?  

"but it has 13% ...that must mean something."   That's you and no I'm not digging up all the past discussions.
