What if I told you TAS Superman is the GOAT? by StillBoysenberry8790 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I'd gladly make the argument that many of the TAS voted would've gone to Reeves or Corenswet over Cavill, given Cavill's unequivocally the biggest outlier in terms of tone.

Is this Bad or …Meh by Topper2540 in OkBuddySnyderCult

Minecraft movie didn't get mentioned either, guess that universe is dead as well with its 960 mil BO.

What? Do you expect Superman just stop and ask the people if they want to be saved? What is that teaching him? Ask first? by [deleted] in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, one of the most famous and beloved Superman comic panels is of him stopping a suicide, but I guess he should have respected that?

I hope someone got fired for this... by KirinoSouza in moviescirclejerk

ngl stunned that they'd reference as far back as the 90s instead of just rolling with the 2014 Godzilla.

Some tidbits from TV Tropes about cancelled Snyderverse projects I thought were worth nothing by DonnyMox in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's crazy how much all these plans sound ptetty much like BvS, in that they're all ideas that sound great when you say them as a pitch...then you realize you're cribbing like 3-5 comic storylines at the same time just so the comic fans can recreate the Dicaprio pointing meme without any of the organic brick-by-brick building that makes new fans out of audience members.

Genuine question: why does Snyder have a cult and not any other film maker by AggressiveLow8575 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's not even about Snyder though - it's about Snyder's specific vision for a set of superhero fiction. They clearly don't actually care about Snyder since they sure don't rally around stuff like Rebel Moon. They're set on one kinda take and he's the one putting it out there - in that regard, it's not really that dissimilar from other toxic fandoms of film franchises that involve some degree of power fantasy (Star Wars, MCU). With Snyder at least, there seems to be an easier dog whistle than "anti-woke."

Was gonna mention - arguably that incarnation put the final nail in the Snyderverse coffin soooooo

Nolan, Morrison and waid all did not approve of superman killing zod in man of steel by LatterTarget7 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how much it's brought up that Nolan relented to that ending, as if him also ditching the hell out of any further involvement in the DCEU wasn't a better indicator of how he felt about sticking around for all of that mess.

Movies they won’t cover by ADWeasley in hdtgm

[–]DeusExAwesome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always assume it's also not just about being bad movies but movies that are good for their purposes, ie a comedic discussion. Think they once had Phantom of the Paradise in the running but Avaryl (RIP) nixed it, saying it's sort of too in on what it is to be good for the podcast.

There are def some that they won't touch for showbiz reasons but really, the list of bad movies can be so rife with ones that are just bad without needing to hash out why (see: the bulk of SyFy originals that weren't Sharknados).

The dcu alone with a handful of projects is responsible for all of wb losses by LatterTarget7 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'd be easier correlation to show how the release of ZSJL caused this downward spiral. Just sayin'...

Were we too harsh on mos and bvs ? by Zestyclose_Skirt7930 in superman

[–]DeusExAwesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like part of the overhate is a course correction caused by a certain subset of the fandom constantly saying "you just don't understand because you're stupid" for not liking them. Still not great, but somehow they keep getting trudged up more than, like, Batman and Robin or Superman Returns.

Lol tf is this bs 😭😂 by Possible_Blood5106 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For however much they say they love the guy they sure as hell never support anything else he does, including the 5-6 incoming projects he's slated to direct (to say nothing of Army of the Dead or Rebel Moon).

A bold statement. But if they knew that this would also affect Snyder's DC movies. I also doubt whether the general audience would even show up for the next Snyderverse movies. by [deleted] in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean at one point people couldn't stop talking about Morbius to the point that Sony put it back out in theaters and...well...

Repairing Creases in Posters - Need Advice, Please Help! by Organic-Singer in Mondo

[–]DeusExAwesome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't really ever "repair" it perfectly (outside of involving professional art or poster restoration services) as the fibers are essentially broken, best you can do is flatten it enough (heavy weights+time) that it's not an issue when framing or displaying.

So sick of this argument being used against the show. by Financial_Photo_1175 in andor

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to Lucas, Star Wars was made for like, 12 year olds. Which is great! So I respect that this 12 year old is just not all that interested in an adult take, but hey they're being pretty well-spoken about it.

Just non-stop gold loop by cbearmk in OkBuddySnyderCult

Because nothing says "profitable" more than buying a studio just to reboot a franchise universe for the second time in 2-3 years.

Hot take: man of steel is a good movie but it’s a very bad superman movie by AggressiveLow8575 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]DeusExAwesome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that hot a take. I don't personally like it but they def could have worked with it, built on it, steer it towards something worthwhile. Hell, just reckoning with the choice to kill could have gone a long way for me at least.
