the storytelling I saw in Watchmen is amongst the best I have seen in any CBM and I ain't even capping.

if there wasn't a better watchmen then I will have said perhaps u are right

Priapus69:
So is Snyder at best. He barely tells a decent story in his movies, focuses mainly on the fights and graphics and forgets the important thing which is the story he's telling.

u mind am? He keeps hitting hard that MCU which 80% of ppl accepts have been successful and their movie review and box office is a prove of that success as being over hyped and over rated.

But same guy keep hammering on how great Snyder movies are, how a master piece they are, these are same movies with miss reaction and divided opinions. When someone feels he is an island of knowledge and only what he sees as right shud be right then it's a waste of time arguing.

Synder movies are the best In fact they are master piece, who cares so far I can get better movies from other sources am cool I will stick with alternative till when DC finally have sense.

Waiting for Snyder new movie shabi they say it's like starwars make we see now.

MJBOLT:

Kryptonians in the DCEU are massively over powered

Doesn't make Sense

HaLLantern:
What are you talking about? I'm not assuming anything. None of them can see Superman move ,how will they react? Wonderwoman that is fast enough to deflect bullets was PAUSED when Superman moved to stop flash.
The JL tried to hold a "confused" Superman in place and were flinged away.

To me the only threat there is Wanda but she has the thought process of more or less a human which is far less than even wonderwoman. Heat vision will melt her.

I dont think u shud use that scene to judge though it doesn't stay true to the cartoons have seen of justice league

MJBOLT:

Holding him in place won't work
1.They are fighting other people
2.Nobody on that team,even combined has the strength to do so,WW, Aquaman and Cyborg were all struggling against him and he swatted them like flies.

u know I still don't understand how Aquaman wonder woman and cybord had a fight with superman and they couldn't even make a dent, have seen wonder woman have a one on one fight with superman and she held her own and push supes back.

I don't just understand that particular scene in justice league movie.

I'm a marvel fan
I know these characters, I grew up with them
I know Marvel mythos more than many of you MCU fans,
I'm not an MCU fan, I'm a marvel fan
The MCU is just okay-ish
But Una too dey hype am
I still get visibly angry anytime I remember Taskmaster, Malekieth or Hulk or many other cool characters the MCU butchered

You see Fantastic 4 and X-Men
I seriously have my fingers crossed for those projects
Especially Dr Doom, my best Marvel character of all time
Him and Wolverine are the 2 marvel characters that can do anything they want and It will be cool to me so don't say I don't like Marvel...thainkzz

lol humans sha, the same way u say MCU is just okayish ppl just dey hype am, is it safe for us to say Snyder movies are okayish na u just dey hype am? I feel u need to accept that ppl will like movies u don't and won't like movies u do. We all have what we like, but when majority likes a movie, or movies from a particular company more, then that company is doing something right. And the others are not doing something right.

It's just the plain truth

VerifiedStalin:
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.

same way they deprived themselves of an amazing series 'the nevers' just bcus josh was involved.

I dont like Snyder but doesn't mean if he releases a movie I won't watch it and hope to enjoy it.

AnfieldFan:
Zack's movie was better because it had four hours to put a lot of things in contest..
Fundamentals remain the same ...You and I know this...
He added more slow mo scenes, cut Whedon's ineffective comedy(WB specifically requested for this), and changed Steppenwolf's armour..
You can say he gave Characters more soul and backstory e.g Cyborg, Flash e.t.c but it still points to my earlier point about having four hours to have a more cohesive and better story...He wouldn't have had that luxury if it was Cinema..
Implying Snyder's Justice league was groundbreaking just doesn't resonate with me....

exactly. If he was told to strip it down to 2hrs he won't have done that better than josh

pu7pl3:
this is just 1 of many other comments like this littered around here

I still haven't seen where I said I want justice league to be 2hrs in this ur quote

BlackManta:
Is there anything I won't see on this thread

Peeps here really think MOS is a masterpiece

They should see Joker, TDK and Watchmen to get a feel of what a masterpiece looks like..

I tire o, MOS of all movies.

pu7pl3:
Avengers infinity war was 5+hrs long and they already had established characters but you expect Justice League to just be 2 hrs even with the new characters that had to be introduced

Make it make sense

oga where did u hear me say I want justice league to be 2hrs? Biko show me the place abeg.

pu7pl3:
I was blabbing abi? Well let's see how much "flashpoint" is going to be in the movie when it drops

And I wonder why you ignored this question

didn't ignore just don't see the reason to keep arguing with u. Infinity war I think was 2hrs 30mins long which was worth every min and hrs and end game was 3hrs and also worth it. Ur guy uses half of his movie to do unnecessary small mode, or linger too much on setting up the movie it's self.

Batman v Superman was 3hrs long of completely boring dialogue. Still amazes me u want to compare avengers infinity and end game to ZSJL, they are not even in the same league at all

[img]https://c./nLWeHUhYIXIAAAAM/obama-what.gif[/img]

This is exactly the same way u were blabbing yrs back when I said the best and only way forward for the dceu was using flash and a flash point to reboot, but u went on and on abt how dumb I was, lol fast forward now DC is doing the exact thing and when I called u out what was ur excuse? Lol bro don't worry I will call this discussion back again especially when the flash movies comes out. Till then enjoy

pu7pl3:
MOS was a work of art, if you can't see it, check yourself...and I said post Snyder DCEU so I was referring to BOP, Shazam and TSS that you say was "generally accepted"

MOS wasn't a master piece if u cant see it check urself.

U ever wonder why the generally movie goers never liked it? As complex as Nolan movies are it's generally accepted as master piece And those are even original unlike a movie that already have source materials.

So if a small chunk of the population sees it as a master piece and the major population doesn't then I don't get ur argument, cus it's not like it's me that told them all not to like it.

pu7pl3:
This "core" you keep talking about...seems like you don't know what core means

How can you admit there was more character development and a more cohesive plot but still say the core was the same
And ZSJL would have been 3hrs if it was released theatrically because only 3 characters in the movie had previous projects and the rest would still need to be explained, WB rushed it cos they wanted to cash out immediately and you guys are blaming Snyder for it...is it hard to admit that the man is a genius for even making something like that despite all the odds stacked against him?

lol correct genius, so leme ask will two director with same script direct a movie the same way? So bcus one director has a better character development and the other doesn't with the same script doesn't that mean the main plot of the script is different? Baba the core of the both justice league revolved around

1 bringing superman back to life
2 Stepphenwolf gathering the mother box
3 and the justice league stopping him,
Or was there any other major thing aside darkside trying to enter earth which was in Zack version? Biko enlighten me abeg

Both directors just went at it a little differently

Nickshrapnel:
Cyborg had more story and Stepphenwolf’s motive was different in ZSJL.

cyborg had more story, why wont he it was F..ing 4hrs, alot of those stuff we saw won't have made it to a 2hrs cut if he was mandated to, so let's not kid ourself. Stepphenwolf motive was different how? It still revolve around gathering the mother box lol to impress darkside lol abegi jare don't make me laugh hard tonight. I have it on my TV will manage and rewatch it again leme look for what u guys are seeing there for u to say it's so special.

Am not a marvel fan but the infinity wars was just an amazing and we'll thought out movie.

For the record ZSJL didn't make me eager for a part two.

pu7pl3:
didn't you see the villain's motives became more cohesive and logical while also giving him more personality?
Didn't you see the different Flash? ZSJL made him more cool and important
Don't get me started on Cyborg and his dad
Even Lois Lane?
Even the Darkseid added more depth and it made people clamour for a 2nd instalment

Unless you didn't watch the two movies

lol baba, did I ever say it wasn't a better movie? I said the core AKA the plot was practically the same thing, just better character development and more screeen time for some character. Trim down that ZSJL to 2hrs and tell me if u will still get all those character indepth u did in the 4hrs. Don't worry next year is coming we will see what other directors will do then it will be clear to everybody

pu7pl3:
there is no post Snyder DCEU movie that has been as good as MOS guy
Leave all these plenty talks

pls always put IMO. I will take Aquaman and WW over MOS might even take Shazam and SS over it self, just bcus u like MOS doesn't mean everyone else shud.

MOS is a masterpiece to u, but am sorry it's not to me. Turn off for me is a brooding superman, u can say he was trying to potray what it is like for superman to exist in a real world, but baba it's a comic book movie with established materia he doesn't have to over think it, but no Snyder must always do.

Kaycee7:
You, bro, are the funny one.

if u say so.

Kaycee7:
Wetin be "core" of a movie?

bro whatever rocks ur boat

Kaycee7:
Desaad, Cyborg's backstory, Steppenwolf's agenda, the entire freaking climax.

lol, Biko what exactly did Desaad add to that story that was really special? So cyborg back story totally change the story? Errrm steppenwolf's agenda was different from both films? Lol u guys are just funny.

Kaycee7:
I dey try understand the bold statement abeg

are u saying u don't understand the core of a movie?

pu7pl3:
they have been generally accepted but none has been as good...you would probably tell me it's your personal preference and that's okay...

none as been good? Like seriously? I guess it's ur personal preference.

pu7pl3:
How did you watch the 2 movies and come to the conclusion that the core was the same?

how are they not bro? Take off darkside and tell me what exactly is different from the two movies at it's core

pu7pl3:
Una is all of you MCU croonies, that's una

am not a marvel fan and I share his opinion.
Every none synder movie aside TSS, BOP and WW84 have been generally accepted and liked by most movie goers

VerifiedStalin:
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.

shegxy9:
I will make it short guys... I met this damsel February this year and it has been great times since then...

Around may she got admission to University outside the state we are but the main issue is that wen she came back I was telling her about her attitudes when she was in school like most times we hardly talk but she said that I know this is her first semester in school and she apologised that it would not happen again...

But the main issue is this, she said I need to forgive her because she has offended me, she said a guy slept in her room though she swore to me that nothing happened that night...

Pls guys have been having these mixed feelings since yesterday like can she be trusted?? And hope am not in love with upcoming olosho

Pls no insults, only matured responses

smh the way ppl just carry every little matter and make a public discussion is just funny, don't u have close friends u can talk to abt this? Or is it that we all just wanna make front page. So a guy slpt over at her place so u are thinking she might be an upcoming olosho, so bcus she is dating u she can't relate with other guys or what? All this bondage that ppl call relationship nowadays self.


Person wey go cheat go cheat and until u catch her red handled it's best u give urself rest of mind and trust her. Are u saying if a girl sleep over at ur place then we shud assume u guys had sex?

Ochecanny2:
I personally think it largely depends on the individuals involved,
but 1-2 years could be enough for any two individuals to perfectly consider thier mutual compatibility.

then that's dating not courtship. Courtship doesn't take long at all,

TheKingIsHere:
Lol, for where? I just dey laugh as una dey rant.

As for the second bolded, I agree with you, but we also have to play our part by realizing the top projects/shows coming out soon. Those projects/shows require huge amount of cash and I don't think the studio has unlimited amount of cash to splash just like that.

Maybe because I reason things from the business management/financial angle sha

I can still accept this excuse of cash being the reason

TheKingIsHere:
Meanwhile the same D+ does not have any sensible originals except from MCU and Star wars. You can never compare HBO/HBOmax shows to D+.

Do you know what it takes to produce numerous original shows that are top notch? We should remember these when complaining about production speed. How won't D+ have production speed wrt SW or MCU when they don't have any sensible originals?

If HBO drops all the other shows and focus on only DC related shows, we go still come out come complain say they are not focusing on other franchises.

We show remember that these everything does not revolve round DC. Make una dey take am easy o.

u say it as if its same ppl who does the originals for HBOmax that do the DC shows, we are talking Abt DC and marvel in respect to both services.

I believe HBO has its own dedicated team for DC products, it's like u Saying D+ marvel shows are delayed bcus of their starwars shows. I do not subscribe to ur excuse for them.

abduleez1:
The project was supposed to debut this year but you know Covid disrupted plans.
GOT prequel and GL was supposed to premiere this year, in time for HBOMax Europe debut.


The show is in Pre-production.
Lead Casts: Finn Wittrock as Guy, Jeremy Irvine as Alan Scott.
Casting crew already set(ting) up and doing behind the scenes work. Showrunner: Graham Smith, Director: Lee Toland.

Filming set for late 2021(November). Any further delay takes it to early 2022.

thanks, it's cool though I just hope they get the effects right cus that my fear abt GL, it's effects heavy. Practical effects with a touch of CGI shud work unlike full CGI they did with the first movie

abduleez1:
You are getting it wrong.
True, it has been in development for a long time (11yrs or so) but it was never announced as a project soon to be released.

Same analogy as Deathstroke solo movie or Nightwing, Jared Leto's Joker, Gotham City Sirens movies that has been in development for 5yrs plus. They were never announced that's the key difference.

Cyborg, Flash and Green Lantern are projects that was announced and in development but never produced. That's the difference: announcement. Even Plastic Man and the likes were announced by WB but we know that thing seems as good as dead since no word about the progression.
I think we've trashed this before, in devt vs announced projects. While they are both similar they are necessarily not the same.

okay
