I never really got the problem with Bruce getting back to Gotham without passports. I mean, country hopping with no resources is literally the first thing we see him doing in the series.
I think people considered the timeXdistance concept. He was literally in the middle-east or something similar, he travelled half the planet in 1 day? Damn, that is a very faithfull adaptation if you ask me, there's no character in any form of media with more plot armor than Batman.
It wasn't within one day. It was a few weeks. There's some time jumps in the movie that are just kind of mentioned in brief dialogue that's really easy to miss. Which I would say is a flaw of the movie.
"You know my mate Joe?" "Yeah, sure." "His dad's a builder." "Uh huh." "He's like an old school Italian..." "This story has got to get a lot better real quick."
I really enjoyed the conversation about the Dark Knight Trilogy. I've never heard anyone who has such similar sentiments about all three movies as I do, the way Will does.
I think a Zack Snyder biopic would be fascinating. The guy has gotten as much hate as George Lucas, if not more, just for adapting characters from his favorite Comic Book universe to film. He didn't even ruin them either. It was simply that his method of storytelling let audiences to think that he turned Superman into a selfish emo narcissistic mass murdering sociopathic amoral villain, despite the fact that he chose to use his abilities to help others when he was just a little boy, everything he did was for others, and he did nothing that could be considered amoral or villainous. Moviegoers have hated him since Dawn of the Dead. It makes me wonder how he was treated in public, or how the studio treated him, as a result of audience response to him. Not to mention how much it took out of him to make his DC Films and dealing with his daughter's suicide and the monsters who celebrated that so they could "get a competent director". It would make for an amazing biopic.
Great show but I gotta say the reason why Maz didn't explain where the saber was from was because that's the light saber that was cut off with Luke's hand in Empire. Sounds like I long story to me...
*QUESTION* : Why didn't Cavill shave his mustache for Justin League and put on a fake one for Mission Impossible? Wouldn't that be easier and (most importantly) cheaper...?
TheSinglePlayer there's a part in mission impossible where Tom Cruise has to comb Henry cavills mustache just right,or else a bb goes off,so there's a lot of mustache action
Best thing about the Nolan films is he doesn't kill the Ninja temple was a plot hole. I was fine with it. To me he felt like a real hero instead of some murderess guy who could not kill people but does.
Just started reading 'Kill or be Killed' and as Mason said 'nothing but good'. Would love to hear your thoughts on it once you get started and hopefully James gets into it as well.
With the auto pilot part in dark knight rises i beleave batman has a thing built into every vehicle which tricks his enemys by looking like batman is in the vehicle but hes controling the vehicle from somewhere else.
So basically the production of Han Solo is exactly like the production of Superman 2, where they had a director film a lot of it, then they fire them because they're good at their job, then hire another director to reshoot 80% of the movie to get directing credit.
Can you guys compare and contrast the Lord of the Rings Trilogy with the Dark Knight Trilogy? Which is the best? Positives and negatives of each? Similarities, differences?
The thing that weirds me out about the Snoke picture is the color of his cloths. It's like a nice shiny gold robe looking thing which doesn't fit with the traditional Sith. It would be so interesting if Snoke is an ancient Jedi with all these old fucked up ways of doing things who is trying to bring it back. I mean, he is a force user because he senses the awakening, but if he were a Sith, he'd go by Darth, surely. Especially with Sidious gone. Maybe Luke's books are the ancient ways of the Jedi which is why he believes it is time for them to end because maybe their history is sinister and it was only during the New Republic that they became peace loving since the Sith were gone. I mean, I doubt that's what they'd do, but if done right it would be a very interesting change in the classical Star Wars dynamic. Edit: Also that might explain why Kylo doesn't do many dark force abilities.
O god does anyone else think Will's voice sounds eerily like a deeper version of James' voice? It's like there are a present and a senile James from the future in the same room together
Winter Naomi Vera It does kind of lose its sheen though when we have the live action embodiment of the Animated series incarnation of Batman in Batman, I mean Ben Affleck. Bale is the original model. Batman, I mean Ben Affleck, is Batman 2.0. I still love The Dark Knight Trilogy though. The Dark Knight earned it's nomination, and we wouldn't have the DC Films Universe if it weren't for The Dark Knight Trilogy. We wouldn't have the Marvel Cinematic Universe either, for that matter.
I'm not gonna be able to watch Justice League without trying to spot the phantom mustache. I imagine it'll look like Cavill's got Grand Moff Tarkin on his upper lip.
That's what's the saddest about this whole thing. That these garbage rumors will have fans looking for things that, more than likely, aren't even there. Apparently it would take months to digitally erase a mustache, and not two or three months either. Like six months at the least. There is no way in hell this is true. But people will buy an anonymous source over the studio and even the actors involved in Justice League, and even the director of Mission: Impossible 6. It's just so sad.
Agreed. It's not like Batman has never lost sight of who he is and what he believes in, at least once, in the comics. I have read multiple stories where he contradicts his principles for this reason or that. I have also read stories where he is so consumed with rage that his detective skills go out the window. But, as always, he learns from his mistakes and goes back to being, or becomes a better version of, the hero we all know and love, just like he does at the end of Batman v Superman.
Leon Fernandez I think that's exactly what they did. Apparently it would be chronologically impossible to digitally erase a mustache in the time allotted. But, of course, Henry Cavill shaving his mustache for Justice League, and growing it back for Mission Impossible 6, is too boring of a story, and Zack Snyder is such a great punching bag for them. So they need to turn it into this huge disaster to benefit their narrative.
Winter Naomi Vera Thanks to the reply yeah true even tho I don't like Batman V Superman I felt like Snyder this week I had a project at work they selected me to do it based on my past work so then my boss said this is crap compared to what you did before So I thought that's what Snyder feels lol! I do think he could have done way way way better but we are all human we all screw up and will screw up in life All I wanted to say instead spending millions on a mustache grab that money and feed a village on Ethiopia!
I don't think there are any ravens at the Wall. I think that Team Danny were at fault for launching their operation with so little intelligence. Probably overconfidence.
Thomas Jefferson had a child with a slave, still had some serious race issues considering he owned her as property. Hell, Donald Trump's wife is an immigrant. Just because your penis isn't racist doesn't mean the rest of you isn't.
CGi mustache... *sigh* Just do it Warner, flashpoint, random crisis, etc.. Just reboot this crap and recast everyone. It can't become more embarrassing than this...
But that just isn't true about Lovecraft, try actually reading his work instead of parroting whatever you hear. His descriptions were on-point. He was also nowhere near as racist as people think he was. Yeah, he was clearly racist, but not THAT racist.
The Helpful Pug I mean his descriptions were lacking in a traditional sense. He was a master of knowing that what we don't know is scarier than what we do and focused heavily in that. There are also entire stories of his based around a horror that people see but is never described in any way. I personally enjoy his work but it's fair to say why that it's harder to enjoy from a modern perspective
@Mason Mclaughlin Have you read his work? I have, he goes into extreme detail on many occasions. The "it's indescribable" meme is based on some of his first-person stories, wherein the character himself doesn't know how to explain what he's seen.
@A L E X Who said anything about defending him? He wasn't so racist as to honestly believe that black people lay eggs, what are you getting all high and mighty about?
The Helpful Pug oh yeah I understand exactly what you mean, I got the necronomicon and I'm a big fan. I just understand why people would find issues in some of his stories.
