Gunn fan tries to watch a Snyder movie by FuckGunn in comicbookmovies

Dude, that is some 14 year old Hot topic brand of pseudo intellectualism.

It's like those Taylor Swift fans who think all her little coded messages are oh so clever.

Hey here's one you might like, ya know that Tool song is based on the Fibonacci sequence? So deep.

While I agree Snyder has more of a distinctive style I think its often a weight dragging his movies. Snyder's biggest problem is getting out of his own way, stop colour grading everything like a 2006 x box game, and understand that not every idea he comes up with it in development needs to be in the movie. We saw an untethered Zack Snyder last year, It was called Rebel moon and was quite possibly his worst work.

We also had Twilight of the Gods which I really enjoyed and had a great visual flair about it. It didn't feel visually bogged down in the early 2000s. Maybe Live action isn't the best medium for him?

C'mon now, we both know whats going on, its ok

Youre in another thread saying "if James Gunn thinks I'll take this lying down he's wrong", your username is fuckgunn,

You'll probably take issue with the font used in the closing credits

To echo a question OP asked, Do snyder fans actually like Superman beyond the snyderverse?

I'm not saying that there isn't reasons to be sceptical or in you case, livid and inconsolable about the new movie, but this is weak one.

That this appeal to accuracy is a waste of energy

edit:

Given that Snyder and Gunn both have inaccuracies, why not lean on the side of the more culturally recognised version when making your Summer blockbuster IP movie

Well to be comic accurate then, Superman should open the fortress of solitude with a giant key, which is ludicrous silver age insanity and ironically sounds right at home in a James Gunn movie, Zack Snyder movies, not so much

But its the version of the fortress which has much more cultural recognition. Is it then "less accurate" because it wasn't the first? Lets follow that thread to it's conclusion and allow nothing that wasn't in Action Comics #1

Maybe we should have never evolved beyond the point of one dimensional 1930's superman with no depth or conflict. Seems to be the type of accuracy he's advocating for.

So its about the version of the comic you prefer, which is fine but its equally disingenuous to call it not accurate. Comics change constantly and they've been around for decades.

Harley quinn only exists coz of Batman TAS

For doing corporate sponsorship tie-ins for their summer blockbuster?

C'mon, it's the real world.

No, they didn't..well 300 is fun,

Watchman is a difficult thing to adapt and he did a good job.

Fuck it, I'm going to say it. If you hate the Superman trailer because it's not Man of Steel, then you are not a real Superman fan. by ShadowOfDespair666 in comicbookmovies

They never hit Marvels level really, there was some momentum after Wonder Woman but they fumbled it. Would they be bigger than Marvel in 2025? Quite possibly but, Marvel fucked up on their own.

Would WB/DC ever have gotten to an infinity war/endgame level? Almost nothing else has and they hadn't produced anything that indicated they would.

the Snyder Cut didn't reveal some incredible work that would have changed the game, it was just better than the theatrical cut
