The Dark Knight Rises You Have My Permission To Lounge - Part 4

[Snow Queen]

Yes, it was. In bad taste, too. You don't publicly join in a 'F**k Marvel' chorus at the premier to your movie.



Only one? How many reviews have there been?

Just the one, last I checked.

As far as RT ones, anyway.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Only one? How many reviews have there been?

It's the only one I heard of, I don't even know who reviewed it.

 

[BatLobster]

From reading the Reddit reactions to the early screening, I'm not getting the best vibe tbh. Very few raves, a lot of "it was decent but nothing special" type posts, and Leto's Joker is getting a mixed reaction. And these are from DC fanboys.

I've got my tickets for Thursday, still trying to remain cautiously optimistic. This movie just seems like too fun of a concept to screw up, I'll honestly be shocked if I walk away feeling let down. I'm not looking for it to be the next TDK, I just want good characterizations, good performances and chemistry and hopefully a decent story to hold it all together.

We'll see what the critics think shortly...

 

[Spider-Aziz]

7 tomato reviews in, only 1 of them is positive.
Wonder if the score will remain low.

 

[BatLobster]

Oh dear. Here we go again..

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Regardless of the critical reception, you can still hope to have fun with it.
Call it a bad movie you like.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

What's the impression of Letoker guys?

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Damaged?

 

[Tacit Ronin]

24 reviews. 9 Fresh. 15 rotten.

 

[The Joker]

If it ends up with a rotten rating, it makes me think Snyder had a lot of input on this movie.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I wanted this one to succeed, but I'm laughing at its failure just like I did with Fant4stic.
Director's choice of words before the movie release probably had a thing or two to do with it.

 

[The Chris]

What the hell has happened to DC movies since the TDK Trilogy ended? I mean Lord what's going on over there?

 

[Spider-Aziz]

If it ends up with a rotten rating, it makes me think Snyder had a lot of input on this movie.

Perhaps.
Who interfered with his input in the Arnold movie from 2 years ago?

Looks like Letoker doesn't make much of an impression. Of course, fanboys will tell me "it wasn't really his movie. He didn't have time to make an impact. Wait for Batfleck solo film. Then you will see. Then you will agree with my verbal ******io".

 

[Ryan]

Looks like a bunch of reviews have come in. None too favourable of the film itself and I don't see many raves about Leto's joker.

[Chip Chipperson]

I can't say I'm surprised. WB never really knew what they were doing, and it proves that they got so lucky with Nolan.

But he has toys.
I think I prefer Joker's story in the MK vs DCU game.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

I think Wonder Woman is the first movie they will succeed critically with. Hopefully they've kept Snyder's intervention at a minimum.

 

[The Joker]

I swear if this ends up rotten the DCEU needs a serious overhaul. Or reboot it from scratch. I mean three movies in a row slammed. Ridiculous.

Perhaps.

Which movie do you mean?

honestly think critics will be scared to give it a bad review regardless of quality, so in that sense I agree

 

[Tacit Ronin]

the comments section in Batman-news is cancerous. Yikes.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Which movie do you mean?

Sabotage

 

[BatLobster]

Let's be fair here. Ayer should be held accountable for his own movie. He's pretty hit and miss with critics and has directed some rottens before:

Sabotage (20%)
Street Kings (36%)
Harsh Times (48%)

 

[Tacit Ronin]

Reading through some of em, it looks like Letoker is gleeful and over the top, but not very threatening. That's the assessment of him I had from the trailers. Of course, I was met with fanboy responses like "is u kidding? He is the most threatening Joker eva!".

Yeah. Sure.

Oh right. That's one of the ones you meant, Aziz. Yeah well in light of this there is every chance this balls up is his own doing.

It's just when you hear Snyder involvement in a movie, huge red warning lights go up.
