Is ZSJL's case really brigading? Or is it more a case of a movie being successful with its target audience? Can the Snydra fanbase really be accused of brigading if they were the majority that watched and rated the movie?

The popular votes are heavily influenced by fans, are they not? It's brigading 101.

Kaycee7:

Boy, aren't we busy bees? From gaming audience polls to rigging streaming numbers? Funny how Netflix doesn't realize that and is making a prequel but you on the outside are privy to this information.

Spoken like a true Snydra lol. I mean, why would you defend a film you haven't even seen? Anyways, Netflix doesn't care about rigged or gamed streaming numbers as long as the outcome is very beneficial to the company. Like every mega corporation, its motivation is purely revenue based.

I haven't seen Shang Chi yet but I doubt...
I have mixed feelings about AOTD....
Good action...Good plot on paper...Abysmal plot execution and direction on screen...

What do you mean you doubt Shang-Chi? Such blasphemy! Shang Chi is great fun, great fight choreography, and comedy. It's your loss if you don't wanna watch it.


AotD plot was never good on paper to begin with. The premise had some potential but the plot was a dumbster fire. Snyder in his typical pretentious fashion made it more complicated than it had any right to be.

I read the plot on Wiki. Don't intend seeing it. Wasn't moved by what I read, looks like a cliche Chinese film. Besides not really a fan of Chinese film.

I'm not arguing AotD's quality. I'm just wondering why the brigading squad couldn't game its ratings same way they gamed ZSJL's. I mean if they could game the streaming numbers, audience polls sound like a piece of cake.

I mean't AOTD being better than Shang Chi..... Literally everyone loves the movie(Shang Chi)....

As regards AOTD....The premise of stealing from a casino in a city overrun by zombies can make for a good story on paper.... Just the execution was subpar...That's what I mean by being good on paper but poor translation on screen...
Maybe, a different director would have done better...

Who is una......A cinematic universe like MCU deserves all the praise it gets..... So if it gets hyped, it's because it's deserving....
I like the DCEU films except maybe ones from Snyder...If I say I don't like them, doesn't mean I automatically hate the verse...It just means I don't like that particular movie

Zach Snyder is a hugely talented director who is bogged down by his lack of identity. He's a weird mix between Michael Bay, Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg and Denis Villeneuve. This amalgam of different styles essentially makes him a jack of all trade and master of none. He's got the visual artistry of Michael Bay, the classic technique of Spielberg, postmodern ambiguity of Nolan, and voyeuristic hostile/abstract approach of Villeneuve. But in all of these, he's 2nd rate at best because he's merely a student learning from the masters. Sometimes simple is better, alas a concept that is as foreign as it's elusive to Snyder.

Any half decent filmmaker with a firm, and clear understanding of straightforward storytelling would have done wonders with AotD script.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League turned a bad movie into a longish okay movie. The fact that he got to make it at all is a huge win for the Snyderverse fandom and they should be proud. But the movie simply isn’t great because Zack Snyder isn’t a great director.
like I always say, if it was a theatrical release he won't have that luxury of 4hrs. Movie was just ok in my opinion, if it was strip down to 2 to 3hrs not sure it will have been been an okay movie self. The core is still the same with the josh release.

Which suicide squad?

I don't like Thor 2 very much....I would place it in the same ball park as the first suicide squad...
Suicide squad 2 is clear of Thor 2..
I prefer Thor 1 and Ragnarok in the Thor series so far...

I think if Snyder's cut was theatrical.... Removing the excessive slow mo scenes and grand posing would have cut like an hour off....
Whedon's being bad made Snyder's look great though it was basically the same..
