This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]473279[/split]
How... does that work?
Batman is an urban legend, nobody knew or thought he actually existed. Superman was the first public superhero.
Damn it, I'm never going to get the last post/first post of a given Superman thread.lol

On another note,
Out of curiosity (and forgive me if this sounds confusing due to my knowledge for the proper terms)....do you guys prefer the film-grainy look that we saw in "Man of Steel" and wish to see that moved over into this film as well? Or would you guys prefer Snyder switching up his camera and use one that provides the same quality that we see Marvel Studios use for their MCU films?
I get that intent but it's one of those things I'm going to have to see implemented in the film to believe. Having a Batman that's been physically fighting crime for 10, 20+ years and yet no one knows of his existence outside of "legend" is a huge suspension of disbelief for me. It's like saying SWAT teams have existed since the 1990s but not enough people have seen them to make them believable.
Marvel shoots digital, as does David Fincher. But on principle I prefer film so film it is.On another note,

He just as likely could have been fighting crime in Gotham for 5 to 10 years and be entirely plausible.
Snyder sounds so reverential of Superman, as if it is something sacred and something to be worshiped. He keeps saying this is an extremely important story for our times.
Really????????
I abhor this from DC film-makers. Have you ever seen any of the Marvel guys say their films are important or that they worship their characters?
Not even directors making Shakespeare get precious about it.
I say ****ing get a grip, it is just a ****ing superhero movie.
Avengers was shot by a 2 timed Oscar nominated cinematographer and I think it looked really good.

MOS looked good on ocassion but ass-crack ugly on other occasions. The finale was a grey blur of pixels. The prologue was a brown blur of pixels.Ironic given on how so many thought that the cinematography for "TA" was one of its weakest attributes, with many (including myself) feeling like it was shot like a television show at times.
I had no problem with a majority of the cinematography that was used for "MOS".
I thought it looked very beautiful. My only issues with it were the washed out color filters and how I felt some shots shouldn't have been done on shaky/handheld camera...that and some dodgy CGI.
I really hope that with this film having more down-to-earth heroes/villains, they'll rely more on traditional stunt work and on-set location.
Of course it's plausible but like I said I need to see it to both understand it and like/dislike how it's implemented. Batman as an urban legend, for me, doesn't work on paper if he's shown as someone "sho bears the scars of a seasoned vigilante." That statement implies both longevity and many physical confrontations.

if they do go the magic route with WW, that means magic DOES exist in the MOS world.......and yet the world they presented us in MOS seemed fairly normal and not like a world where magic/supernatural stuff are commonplace.
otherwise, the whole "first contact" story wouldn't be so shocking to the public if they're already used to weird **** already happening in their world.
the next film is definitely going to have to come up with a good explanation as to how Superman is the "first" when we have a seasoned/veteran Batman AND WW, a character who's origin is rooted in mythology and magic.
