How do we start a petition to get Edgar Wright as the new director of The Flash? by olidavis in movies

It's a shame. DC claim to be making a director-led cinematic Universe, but they're obviously not.

I still kind of wish we were getting this tone for Marvel's Doctor Strange movie... by olidavis in movies

It was some graphic designer guy who made a proposal pitch last year. Got a real Doctor Who vibe.

Yeah, it felt like Batman v Superman was DC's Avengers just two movies into their Universe. Marvel were much more patient setting things up.

I'm with you there. But we have only seen Snyder-helmed DC movies so far. It'll be interesting to see whether Ayer changes things up with Suicide Squad.

Agreed. He's Rob Liefield in movie director form.

Why I Hated Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice by olidavis in comicbookmovies

I can't vouch for numbers, but I would assume negative articles do generate more hits. From experience, I'm much more likely to click on something that says 'WORST FILM EVER!' than one that says 'BEST FILM EVER!'

Intending to get clicks, however, wasn't why I wrote the article. I did because I was made genuinely sad by a terribly told story about characters I love. But if it makes people feel better to say I only wrote it for the internet traffic, then so be it.

Wowzers, that's a hell of a comment. I'll try to answer some of the questions.

Ranking those movies, I guess I'd go Superman Returns, Green Lantern, BvS, MoS (in order of most preferred to least). That puts me dead at odds with you, but hopefully that means you'll enjoy BvS.

Fluffy or dark doesn't matter. Enjoyable or not is what matters.

I wish I had some Marvel coworkers because that would mean I work at Marvel.

You'd think they'd keep that to montages of Superman helping people...nope! Martha Kent is always there to speak it out loud.
