Check. Dialogue so bad it'd embarrass Schwarzenegger? Check. Enough whip pans to keep chiropractors rich forever? Check. So much shaky cam it's like watching from the inside of a cement mixer? Check. Acting so bad that a kindergarten play director would flee in tears? Check. Audience comprised entirely of closeted 14-year-old boys who have to go home and change their underwear? CHECK.<br /><br />Folks, this crap is why premium cable is raking in all the adults and other intelligent viewers. It's why movie theaters have become so popular among pedophiles. It's why nobody worth a damn wants to be in movies now.<br /><br />But hey, you like watching guys in pantyhose "bonding." Who am I to judge your alternative lifestyle? :-DScreenplayed Outhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13200411028348927174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-24307474642010365772013-12-05T08:51:18.034-08:002013-12-05T08:51:18.034-08:00My guess is, that the movie will be a buddy comedy...My guess is, that the movie will be a buddy comedy with Superman as the main character. In this universe, the man of steel is a flawed character with lots of room for character change. With Superman as the hero, they can really show off Batman's skill as his opponent. Lex Luthor will be the dangerous, secondary outside opponent the buddies have to defeat together in the end, when they have overcome their differences.<br /><br />Wonder Woman could serve as a love interest for both Batman and Superman. Batman, as a billionaire playboy, is open for any kind of romantic adventure, but Superman could be in a relationship with Lois. To me, that sounds interesting.Sven Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03873117557810215390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706282221761427996.post-48362538083353206392013-12-05T02:51:14.964-08:002013-12-05T02:51:14.964-08:00My ultimate question is: Did Batman exist during t...My ultimate question is: Did Batman exist during the most recent Superman movie timeline? You would think his name would have surfaced during the film at some point. Or, does Wayne become Batman now that Superman has made his intro to Earth? Marvel did a good job of connecting the various films of the Avengers franchise with comments and cameos. I think I need a little world-building connective tissue before a big DC hero get-together.
