Krypton dropping the mic. The massive amount of resources and lives that America sacrificed in WW2 isnt up for debate. IDK what sort of BS anti-american conspiracy theory history aziz has been reading but he needs to throw that **** in the trash along with his bias.

Work in progress.
At least I won't question WWII thing anymore.

American movies do tend to de-emphasize the impact that non-American troops had in WWII.

Also, remember, it was a former artist from Austria that killed the Fuhrer.

And its true that american movies do de emphasize the role that other nations played. America sacrificed a lot, but other nations definitely sacrificed a lot as well. America couldnt have done it own our own and I think some directors and writers and americans in general forget that. WW2 cost so many so much.

That's why Letters from Iwo Jima is still my favorite war film after Saving Private Ryan.

and The Book Thief is a surprisingly great book during World War II about "good" Germans who didn't care about Hitler's supreme race and his hatred for Jews and just wanted to live regular lives and survive the bomb raids.
of course, that's not the main plot of the book per se, but WWII is the reason for everything in the book.

How do I upload a avatar?

1. Draw a circle in the ground.

2. Light candles, place around circle.

3. Dress in a squirrel costume. The more authentic the better.

4. Dance in the center of circle [warning DO NOT CATCH SQUIRREL COSTUME ON FIRE] while chanting:

Oh great mods of the hype
I offer my nuts up to you
I had been saving them for winter
But now I want an avatar
I am a humble squirrel
In me there is no lie
Wakka wakka zooba doo
Wakka wakka zooba doo

5. If that does not work then read this.

6. Rinse, repeat.

So i must be a member for more than 1 Month and must have 300 posts?.....

The squirrel dance didn't work?

Do the films honor the Batman mythology?
Is Robin John Blake the right way to end the story?
Was Bane the right villain for Bruce to go up against in the final film?
Was it the right choice for Alfred to leave Bruce?

Do the films honor the Batman mythology?

I believe they do. The essence of the character was there. Ending his run on a grim note has never been essential to the character. Same with the color of a suit, what gadget he's using, just how deep his voice is, or who is playing his sidekick. I personally don't feel like those things represent the essence of the character. It's about the soul of Bruce/Batman, his motives.

Is Robin John Blake the right way to end the story?

That's a matter of opinion of course. I think it was but it's something that every fan should think about before answering. What are the options? When i break everything down, i arrive at "a successor". The question has nothing to do with whether Bruce lives or dies at the end of the trilogy. It's about whether Blake is the right direction to go in or not. It could have been Dick Grayson instead but it still would have been that character, played by JGL in the movie. The successor should have been someone who almost represents the best of Harvey and Bruce at the same time. John Blake was that guy. I dont think it needed the Flying Graysons. Or the character to be younger, like a kid. You can say it would be interesting if Bruce stuck around and trained Blake. Or adopted a young Dick Grayson instead of JGL. I wouldn't mind a new discussion about that particular idea. Open the flood gates in this thread again. But i would have went with what we were given. It sounds logical to me. But let's hear it, after all, it's been close to 3 & a half years.

Was Bane the right villain for Bruce to go up against in the final film?

Absolutely. If you're going to follow TDK with a third movie that has to do with ending Bruce's story. He's perfect. If it wasn't the end, then perhaps the Riddler, Hugo Strange, Black Mask or Penguin would have worked. It was fitting to go with the physical test for Batman.

Was it the right choice for Alfred to leave Bruce?

In Alfred's mind it was. And that's all that matters. What would Alfred do as a character in this situation? It doesn't matter if it's the popular decision or not. Alfred would leave him because there's no other way to stop stubborn Bruce in that situation. Of course it didn't work. But the point is, how is Alfred feeling? It shouldn't be about "oh we need more screentime for Alfred, so we gotta shoehorn him into the third act".

http://imgur.com/lOC4LBvI'm sorry... why isn't anyone mentioning THE JOKER-IZED HOT WHEELS CAR?! Obviously between that and the note to Bruce, Joker IS in this movie (or at least his presence is felt). It's been my contention for a long time that the massive delay was to reworking BvS to fit with SS and possibly include the Joker into the story. Why is this not being discussed? Pretty huge revelation

flipper zod didn't even get a car does this mean shannon is just a corpse after all???

No car for Lex or Jason Todd???

lex should get a convertible with a removable roof

symbolic for when he throws his wig off

Signed up since 2014 and only has 3 posts.....................

And a post of his from last year

I just posted this elsewhere, and I am not sure if that was the right place, so here it is: Guys. I actually just joined to address something I find so insanely wrong, yet so universally accepted, that I had to chime in. Everyone on this page keeps talking about the Comic Con footage as if it won't be in the movie. It is absolutely 100% in the movie and I gotta say... it's insane to think otherwise. The comment they made referred to NOT releasing it BEFOREHAND. Not that they spent 200,000 on a clip that isn't in the movie! Please pull your heads out, this in the biggest nonsense ever, and frankly I am sick of everyone saying it as if it's true. Anyone dumb enough to wager, I'd be happy to make a real monetary bet. I can't take the smug 'all because of a scene that won't be in the movie!' It's in the movie. It's from the movie. Stop this, it's embarrassing.

Batsfan1 is having mood swings.

Wow. They really are committed to being a poorly written show, aren't they?

God bless you! God bless your family and everyone else in your life!

 

[Drizzle]

Does the dude not realize he can just make that his signature and not include it at the end of every post?

On second thought, it's funnier this way.

 

[Sawyer]

I can't decide if that's more or less annoying than the poster who put all their posts in maroon comic sans font.

 

[The Shape]

The comic sans guy was worse. Is he still around?

 

[KevanG]

Manglebop? I think so.

 

[KevanG]

He's already banned and most of the posts removed.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Hope proper authorities monitor the online activities of that one.

 

[jokesonm3]

Yeah he cray cray.

 

[Marvolo]

ZOOM! (Possible season 2 spoilers)

 

[The Shape]

Exactly.
