Joel’s Notes |
| WARNING MY NOTES WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS IMMEDIATELY! |
| It took me a long time to process… I didn’t love it but I didn’t HATE it. I’m not sure if I liked it. Either way it missed the mark. |
| I think after some processing time my feeling is heavy disappointment. So close and yet so far. It’s very frustrating as a fan. |
| I wish people who don’t like Superman would stop making movies about Superman. |
| NOT GOOD |
| Even the romantic scene with Clark and Lois in the tub looks like something out of a Tim Burton film. |
| Jessie Eisenburg who was HORRIBLY cast and potentially horribly directed. |
| Bryan Cranston was up for the role of Lex Luthor. HOW WAS HE NOT CAST !?!?! |
| How many dream sequences did you count? Hint: ONE is too many. Dream sequence INSDIE a dream sequence? Was Snyder BORED? Fuck. |
| Boring predictible end game. |
| Doomsday both how he was made and his presense was dumb AND predictable for all the comic fans. |
| Zero character motivation for Batman to be doing anything he’s doing against Superman. |
| Weak ass reason to have a change of heart. “Wait… Our mom’s have the same name? Dude, I’m sorry for trying to stab you through the heart with a kryptonite spear. My bad.” |
| I am going to vote with my dollars. I will not be seeing any more of the DC “hero” (Justice League etc) films in the theatres unless under very specific instructions from trusted friends. |
| IT WAS TOO LONG! |
| Breaking box office records. I wonder if it’s more curiosity than anything. I don’t think it will continue to climb. – UPDATE – Box office fall record as well. |
| GOOD |
| The acting was spot on. |
| Take out Superman and Batman as a theme and it was actually a decent action movie. |
| Gal Gedot was stoic and strong in what little (unfortunately) she was in the movie. Didn’t matter if she was in a CLASSY evening gown or her Wonder Woman armor. She was a force on screen. |
| I would watch Ben Afleck in a well written, well directed Batman movie. |
| I like a universe where Lois and Clark are together. It adds a lot to Superman’s character. |
| Mastermind manipulation by Lex was good IDEA. Superman’s mom as a target was smart/evil. |
| There were only a few surprises in the film. (Bomb at the senate caught me off guard.) |
Matt’s Notes |
| Pros |
| Batman can kick some serious ass. I would watch an entire movie of Batman beating up badguys. |
| Wonderwoman was far cooler than I was expecting given that, leading up to the movie, it seemed like she was an afterthought |
| I liked the idea that not everyone in the real world would be comfortable with someone like Superman existing. |
| A great theme of “people can get hurt even when you make the best possible decision, but that’s no reason to stop trying.” |
| I loved the whole voice modulator that Batman uses. Much better than someone growling. |
| Cons |
| The pacing was a bit off. Kinda felt more like a director’s cut than a theatrical cut. |
| I agree with Joel about Lex. Played a little too crazy. |
| I’m definitely getting my fill of overly epic storytelling. Maybe I’m getting to be a dull grown-up. |
Robb’s Notes |
| I didn’t see Affleck anymore, jsut Batman/Bruce. Affleck was the thing that had me most worried! not an Affleck fan… |
| Now I’m looking forward tothe Batman movie |
| Superman seemed threatening to me. Like the part where he told Batman that he was shwoing mercy to him. I love Superman, but that made me want to see him get his ass kicked |
| I wasn’t as annoyed by Eisneberg as I thought I would be, I thought he was okay in this. He seemed like an actual threat…yeah but he was a bit goofy |
