BvS All Things Superman and Batman: An Open Discussion - - - - Part 94

Exactly. I've seen far more people already defending the movie against the "hataz" & "naysayers" particularly on these boards than the opposite. First of all, aside from overly privileged suburban kids trying to appear to be something that they're not even remotely close to being, I didn't realize anyone actually used the word hater anymore.

Secondly, I'm seeing more people in the 'you can't appreciate Ben Affleck as Batman b/c you're a jackass. Daredevil was 10 years ago, get over it. His Batman is gonna make Nolan/Bale look like beyotches/I believe in God, I mean, the Fleck/Jesse Eisenberg will be the greatest Luthor eva, Heath Ledger shut you hating bastards up before' crowd than that other group (on here at least). I always wonder 'who exactly are you aiming all this at?' Because the people on here mostly appear to be passionate & care about what happens to BvS. Now maybe outside the hype on sites like Twitter, Yahoo News, & YouTube exist these people that were all negativity & venom at every announcement concerning BvS, but those people faded away & moved on to new topics to whine about or just flat-out stopped bringing it up months ago. I don't even bother to read anything off those sites dealing with pop culture stuff anyway. Who cares? Mainly on them are just trolling. Those same people will be there opening weekend.

Finally, the few people on here that did have apprehension or didn't care for a casting choice, rumored plot line, etc. made decent coherent arguments explaining their position(s). I've seen more people with a 'I hope this is good/wait & see approach than the 'Affleck is playing Batman, that's it. It's gonna suck. I'm Redboxing that crap' approach (yes I used a lot of exaggerated paraphrasing to get my point across lol). I'll admit I wasn't crazy about the Fleck as Batman idea initially, I'm liking it now more & more. I was okay with Gadot, but thought she needed to bulk up. From what I've seen, she looks good. Everything so far looks good. Now I still need to be sold on Eisenberg as Luthor, but I have faith that Snyder can at least pull out a good to decent film. Even though I believe he looks at these characters almost from a jock/frat boy POV, but that's a topic for another day :word:

So I was too distracted by your name...

Before there was The Penguin, there was Oswald Cobblepot.

Is it true that Scoot McNairy has been cast as Jimmy Olsen, or is this just rumor?

Rumor. But, to be honest, that rumor that came out about him is one of the more plausible rumors to come out for this movie so far haha.
 
Film and TV universes aren't connected (thank Zod) so he still can use him.
 
I kind of wished Constantine did. I like Matt Ryan as John. Even del Toro said he wouldn't mind using him.
 
I think the Olsen rumor will end up being BS. It doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense and came from a very unknown and under the radar site.
 
That is not a promo pic of him as Lex. Unfair to use, makes him look unrelated to the movie :(
 
God we have the Trinity finally on the big ****ing screen and they are fighting Jesse ****ing Eisenberg.

I still facepalm at this.

Back to EisenRehab with you, you were doing so well too.
In all fairness, that pic isn't just not a promo BvS pic, it's not even from the BvS set, it's for an entirely different film.

Why can't Black AdRock be the villain?

That's the first pic that's made me think the Benedict would be a perfect choice for the part, not that I didn't think he'd be a good choice, the dude's practically a good choice for anything considering how talented he is. He does play intelligent better than pretty much anyone though, something required for MM. Now so long as they don't let Goyer decide who's in JL the character has a chance.
 
Wow! I don't understand myself how someone who has those questions and conclusions can function in society. Definitely another registered voter.:yay:

Yeah, with that level of nitpickery you could take down The Godfather, poor MOS didn't stand a chance.
