Justice League Vlog 

Ersanven It depends on what scenes they needed to reshoot. It wouldn’t work for him to have a mustache disappear and reappear.

What, you never heard of his Super disguise powers?

Ersanven lmfao omg I would of loved that

I said why they just didn't give him a beard and a mullet. Its sorta true to comic and no weird CGI. smh DC is filled with ass clowns

Maybe they could say his hair kept growing after his death (which is actually not true), and Flash (perhaps as a prank) decided to give the man a mustache.

Holy crap! Guys, upvote this so people can see

If you wanted to know the name of the effect studio it's called MPC and they reside in Vancouver, Canada.

Your roommate is a liar. Good try though 👍

whedon and wb butchered the movie and made it a mess, just like they did with SS

@Tobi I mean, they got the studio right, MPC did, indeed work on Justice League, and do have a Vancouver location. Do you have anything to back up that they're lying?

purpleunicorn12 real shit batman was so disappointing in this movie. He had barely any fight scenes and in the few he did have, they were terrible. The bruce wayne aspect was boring as well. Its really too bad because i fucking loved his portrayal in BvS, especially the warehouse fight.

purpleunicorn12 It's inexcusable, especially because having Cyborg on the team as the tech guy makes Bats even less useful

purpleunicorn12 compare that to how awesome and also relevant Batman was in the Doomsday scene lmao- whatever you might think of the scene it looked Viking awesome and mysterious /decandent like Batman and he fired that Kryp. Grenade at doomsday lmao Whedon. have you seen Zack Snyder's one pic. He Vero' of an anti- dementor gun, I mean can you imagine him ever shooting Batman stiffly coming down on that fucking string gun after the rest of the league just jumped the gate, and shooting him in broad daylight - even on the poster, what were they thinking-- or when Superman fucking slapped him lmao. Or when he picked him up by his cowl and made it look all plastic I mean what an idiot. Atleast Snyder's films look good enough to be called films. Avengers was good you know in its way- but.....

Krypt. Grenade being softened blow or whatever. Also I mean when he came down on the string bit by bit storytelling and it would have been inconsistent but he should have just been inside waiting in the dark and even cheesy and not exactly written like this but Aquaman could say 'where did you come from' and he just turns and swishes his cape and walks in Nolan firm image of character bcos he's a professional, Snyder's fucking awese- visionary imo. Whedon..... oh well Avengers is good you know

Honestly, I'd put a lot of the cringy stuff on whedon..... like the flash falling in her boobs is literally right in the avengers movie too, lmao.

crotch shot? nice =) JK. By the way, 180 instead of 360 makes more sence

Given how Whedon's already exposed to be a cheating asshole I'm not surprised :/

Yep, Ragnarok > League

At least the Flash moment was over really, really fast. Like they move on in 5 seconds

"I'm losin' to a bird!" --Barry Allen, probably

Gaahhhh! Damn you! Now I can't take my eyes away from it!!!

Noooooo. Now I can't see anything else.

thank you for saying what I didn't have the courage to

Thank god I only saw this comment with one minute left :D

Can't be unseen :)

Indeed, it is interesting. For instance, everyone really did think that the opening was Snyder's doing, despite the opening included "Directed by Joss Whedon" over a still image of a homeless man with a sign that reads, "I tried" (the meaning of which is now very obvious). But now we know that it was Whedon's. My biggest takeaway from that realization was, "Wait a minute; he was able to convincingly imitate Snyder's directing style all along? Not that I'm complaining."

Your mother is adorable.

It is! and we get to see Superman acting like Superman

Trademark that name NOW! :D

You could wait until clips show up on youtube. That way DC lose even more money.

I saw the movie and forgot to look for it. I'm not paying to go again.

jorge_cloonez find the Chinese version online for free

That's legit why I went to see it.

Well it sounds like they need the money if the quality of the cgi is anything to go by

I theorized that Whedon wanted the chance to re-enter superhero films in a way where its hard to blame him if its bad.

Whedon was announced to be directing a Batgirl movie about a month and change before the news broke he'd be replacing Snyder so he had already joined the DC camp

Honestly it felt really refreshing too. Snyder's visuals were gorgeous, but Whedon's banter totally sold me on the League itself

Whedon and Snyder... all my nightmares at once.

Snyder called Whedon, not WB

Yes and no. I was surprised how much was in the original, but I was also surprised how much Whedon reshot just to slightly change tone or add a funny line. Like, reshot a whole sequence, shot for shot, line for line, except for a line or two added or removed.

And to realize how awful Whedon and Snyder's cuts are in their own special ways.

@@_V.Va_ Honestly, while the theatrical version is still garbage, the Snyder Cut gave me a newfound appreciation for it. For instance, I disliked the bank scene when I first saw it, but then I saw how Snyder had it that Wonder Woman spattered the walls with the blood and brains of the bad guys and blew up a huge portion of the bank herself; likely killing a number of cops outside, I like that the theatrical version got rid of both the blood and the explosions. Similarly, one of the few scenes I liked when I saw the theatrical version was the one where Wonder Woman sees Batman's bruises and dislocated shoulder and tells him, "You can't keep doing this forever", leading Batman to admit, "I can barely keep doing it now." It was a really nice character moment and, guess what; it was added for the theatrical version; it was not in the Snyder Cut, because the Snyder Cut seems to think Batman's an invincible brute.

@@matthewmuir8884 As much as Snyder likes the imagery of Dark Knight Returns, he is clearly a major fan of Dark Knight Strikes Again's view on superheroes in general, and Batman in particular. Which is unfortunate, because DKSA is a terrible comic which gets Batman as wrong as you can get him.

I wonder if it’s danish audio it is gorgeous

Check out Brandon Boyd's mic from the 'If Not Now, When' Tours and Studio recordings

lol that's a soulman mic

And that's exactly why I didn't like it. If it can't take itself seriously, then I cannot take it seriously and it just get boring. Also hurts that 90% of the jokes just fall flat for me.

I think it’s a fun flick but overall the two plots of Hela vs Planet Hulk have nothing to do with each other and don’t mesh. It doesn’t help either that there’s pretty much nothing about Hela that’s interesting, she’s mostly reduced to a woman scorn which is dumb, at least Cate Blanchett had fun in the role. Ragnarok should’ve been a Planet Hulk movie exclusively and dropped the Hela storyline altogether for a future movie so they could actually pay some attention to it.

@@handsoaphandsoap Exactly. I hated how two dimensional Hela was. And the humour felt quite forced.

Waititi's humor was amazing to me! It felt like the movie could joke while also taking itself seriously in the right moments. They barely use bathos (when a serious moment is cut by a comedic one), instead having a lot of comedic moments and some serious scenes. Felt great fir me and I strongly disagree with the idea that the jokes were forced, but I can comprehend people who didn't vibe with it for any reason.

@@haggisa Hela is literally a metaphore for the evil of colonialism. Like, the film is about how to move past forms of identity that hurt you and move on to new ones that empower you. Hel played her part in the film perfectly.

or hawkgirl. or green lantern. they should have gone with the dcau lineup.

Martian Manhunter Martia Manhunte Marti Manhunt Mart Manhun Mart Mahu Mart Mah Mart ah Martha

drksideofthewal Eh, it's a bit of a stretch. But, not as much of a stretch as it was in the movie.

Martin Manhunter: "Don't give them any ideas. I don't want any part of this mess."

#ULTIMATETRUTH

Surely not the Freddie Mercury biopic.

If anything, I WANT moustached Superman!

+TheStanishStudios Exactly. It has personality.

Pleasantly surprised to find a classic Jack comment here.

you nailed my feelings perfectly

Nathan Holstrom she was just as forgettable though

Marauder Of Diagon Alley Not really

Goldblum was the real Villain in Thor 3, Hela was Kevin Feige's hand in the movie.

The Question the villain was poorly written and underdeveloped and she was "threatning" you say?? Don't make me laugh. The woman was a joke. Hulk was more threatning than her and he was one of the good guys lol

Pretty sure it's going to drift in and out by a few frames. I was lazy and used OBS to record directly to hard drive, but OBS uses variable frame rate, which Premiere "fixes" causing drifts in audio that will phase in and out depending on instantaneous bitrate.

Folding Ideas I like that you actually look through comments. Good on you

@@FoldingIdeas I thought this was folding ideas not folding excuses

dracowheelz5 imo he is portrayed better in this one.

TheGreeklover08 ok thank you!

He eventually comes out the boyscout in blue and red that we all know and love, it just... takes a while to get there.

The boy Scout is back and it's great. His sheer raw power is also on display. Supes is great.

Name Here he has left already due to personal reasons. He wont be wprking on dc projects for a while.

Ricardo Aviles Thank god!

@@ricardoaviles2260 Look who's back!

@@mburumorris3166 But thankfully only for his cut of the movie; hopefully he'll leave DC be once he's done feeding his own ego.

oh no

Before clicking: "I must see it" After clicking: "I need to lay down"

(._____.) Some things just can be unseen.

oh god

He looks constipated as hell.....

Mulch Butler so, disclaimer: I have not seen the movie, I’ve only watched a couple reviews, but it seems to me that compared to the other DCEU movies, it’s reasonably competent and people really want the franchise to succeed despite its many failures, so they don’t say “it’s terrible” they say “it’s not that bad” and feel hopeful despite themselves. That’s my theory anyway.

Mulch Butler I don't think they're afraid, it's more about expectations. Everyone was braced for it to be Suicide Squad again. It's not, it's low mediocre not Fan4stic. So everyone is pleasantly surprised. A Marvel movie, or even a Fox Xmen movie couldn't get away with this, because we've got expectations for them. But DC movies at this point are the disappointment child; "yeah, he dropped out, but at least he hasn't gotten arrested again..."

I see your point but the Rotten Tomatoes thing was very worrisome, and most of the reviews I've watched/read can all be summarized as "meh, you'll like it if you like comics or action, but here's a whole list of problems that are unforgivable at this level".

Just seems like if this wasn't a comic book movie, no one would recommend it. "It was nice to see the Justice League come to life" I hear that a lot.

I feel like I covered this in the vlog, during my summary at the end, but the short of it is that the movie ends on its strongest foot, which colours the way that viewers mentally frame the movie. It's not great, but I didn't leave the theatre angry. It is, objectively, riddled with problems, but it's at least coherent and feels like it's focused on a singular comprehensible plot. I wouldn't recommend it, but if you're basically going to see it anyway because friends/family/whatever then it's passable. Also I feel like a lot of YT critics are deliberately using "damning with faint praise" titles (as I did) due to the very specific culture of toxic fans that have arisen around the DCEU.

Snyder was talking about bringing Superman back in the next movie within a week of BvS coming out.

Good point

yep, at least BvS is memorable for how bad it is, this just sounds like a nothing movie that will be forgotten by the release of Star Wars

maybe thats the plan, put people to sleep than soft reboot the DCEU

Maggiddo[X]Gaming hahaha, still a more plausible theory than Disney buying critics though

Just like Suicide Squad , he doesn't just say he hated it or loved it, there's a grey area you know, i mean i enjoy the fast and furious movies, they're still pretty bad though

That's not a problem of the movie, as much as is a problem of you using that rule like it's universal. Even in that video, Dan says that things DON'T ALWAYS need to be set up, reinforced and pay off, just that it makes it feel better. This things you mention just happened. And then are mentioned again. But aren't neccesarily big stuff anyway. The problem there was Suicide Squad has a pay off that turns out to "transform the unicorn into money out of nowhere", not that "there is no pay off for the unicorn" after being reinforced.

Yeah, they should've pushed the release date to January or February in all honesty. And let it be more than 2 hours.

George Daugherty Yup I guess now I know what it feels like to watch a workprint cut of a movie.

Enthused Norseman I dunno, mostly I didn't have a problem with the comedy infringing on the dramatic bits. The scene with Odin was good, the "get help" gag didn't especially infringe on the elevator scene, stuff like that. I do agree that Taika Waititi should have just shut up during the destruction of Asgard, especially since it was such a predictable joke. Korg only ever had lines that were comic relief, so it doesn't work as subversion because you're waiting for the punchline the whole time. But yeah, that was the only moment that really jarred me out of the film.

That was probably the worst offender (just to be clear, I didn't dislike Korg as a whole. His introduction to the arena was hilarious), but I noticed several other moments as well. Hela in her entirety seemed to be portrayed with a level of ironic distance (constantly having to re-explain what she meant, never being taken seriously, only really having a single, bumbling and incompetent henchman, etc.) that ultimately made me feel like she was less of a threat, no matter how many enemies she beat up. This wasn't helped by the movie not really showing us the consequences of her reign beyond a few small vignettes. She felt much like a repeat of the Malekith character in many ways, albeit more comedically portrayed, as mentioned above. Her "revelation" ultimately had little influence on the story aside from conveniently giving her an army. No tension over whether some Asgardians would actually *want* this heritage she presented. There was also the issue of the Surtr sequence in the beginning also being predicated on ironic distance to the genre conventions, which felt a bit jarring, imho, when compared to the other movies we've seen Thor in. Thor has always had swagger, yes, but sarcastic banter? I don't know. Surtr's last appearance was also marked by some level of comedy which included Hulk acting like a puppy dog biting the mail man, which wasn't as jarring (by that point the tone of the movie had been set well), but still ultimately made him a bit of a joke. My last example for now will be the plot thread of the disconnect between Hulk and Banner which was introduced, but then more or less dropped before anything came of it. There was a little bit of tension before the last transformation, but then everything was fine and no one mentioned it again, so it was effectively a dramatic cul-de-sac, if you will. (There's also the rather odd notion that apparently a pair of M16/M4 assault rifles were able to wreak more havoc upon the undead army than what most of the magi-tech of the Asgardians could, but that's a bit of a different oddity, I guess.) Anyway, thanks for giving me a fair answer. A lot is in the eye of the beholder, I guess, and despite my rant, I did actually enjoy it as a whole. Mainly the Sakaar bits.

Yeah, I think a lot of this does come down to subjectivity. Found Hela more threatening than Malekith, mostly because she was allowed to have emotions, and because I really love the Warriors Three from the comics, so her killing them was a gut punch. I think handling Surtr with ironic distance really worked, because there's really no depth to him at all. I do wish that they had cut the joke with Hulk punching Surtr, because while it was funny, it didn't actually change anything. I don't have a problem with making him a joke in this context, though. I do agree that they should have gone a little further with Asgard's bloody history. Thor's last scene with Odin should have been shot through with discomfort, and should have been more specific about Odin's regrets, and that Thor's refusal to stoop to Odin's level is what makes him stronger. Ultimately, though, I think the movie had a pretty clear vision of its own that it executed with great success, and I'm fine letting a couple of missteps slide in exchange for a deliriously fun realization of the genre-mashing wackiness of actual Thor comics.

In the case of this movie it bothered me too.

Regarding the ending, while the ending might make you sad, the whole point was that ________ is a people, not a place. So while the place has blown up, the people are what make it important, and those people are still there. ____ making a joke is supposed to signify that the people aren't gone and that they are still here, laughing and enjoying life.

That's what I figured it was trying to convey; that everyone didn't know what they had until it was gone.

I would 110% go see Blade Runner again over this.
