I thought it was in keeping with the book. It seems like half of the Dr Strange appearances I can think of involve his astral form. Dude loves him some astral forms.

As soon as I heard that I went: “Ugh. American accent.”
I understood the movie just fine. I understood that it was crap.
Feels like I’m wearing... Nothing it all.
The Vision Collection. Coming Soon.
YES! YES! AMERICA! YES! *sobs*
“a national level” means “Deadspin.”
I wonder if the missing lens is significant...like Valentine shoots Harry in the right eye, but the bulletproof lens smacks into his eye socket, resulting in a fair amount of blood and gore but a deflected bullet. Valentine’s aversion to blood prevents him from confirming the kill, and his minions just don’t care…
Ant-Man, Winter Solider, Guardians, Thor - whatever else you care to name. It doesn’t matter. No other Marvel movie, except for the Avengers 1 & 2, was supposed to gross as much as BvS. At all. Not even Iron Man 3. That was a surprise at the time. And it kicked the shit out of The Dark Knight Rises, its direct…
It’s Ben Mendelsohn
It’s a bit more complicated than that, the studio doesn’t get all of the money from the box office handed directly to them. In the US the theaters take about 50% of the ticket sales on average and overseas theaters will take an even higher percentage. It’s a bit more like:
“But if the viewer shuts off any logical processing, they could at least appreciate the pretty explode-y stuff”
I view that a movie has to earn the right for me to shut off my brain. Case in point, Pacific Rim. The characters are likable enough, the plot is coherent, and the fight scenes are incredible. Something like BvS doesn’t earn that level of “good if you turn your brain off” because everything there is barely anything to…
At least you’re not like those other assholes who somehow think every critic who doesn’t like the movie must be a troll.
Oops my bad. I wanted to enjoy the action, but aside from WW, it was not to to be had. But I wasn’t bored by the CGI—-I can’t complain about it because how else can you accurately depict Superman and and Wonder Woman in action?—-the way I was in the Metropolis battle in MoS.
And I respectfully disagree with you both. I found it a near unbearable display of utterly misguided and ultimately incompetent storytelling (they should have just let Synder sate his love for The Dark Knight Returns by directing the animated version).
I love superman. I've loved superman ever since I was a kid. Growing up, the first big narrative arc that I read was after Superman killed the Zod and his crew in the pocket universe, then went into self-exile because he was couldn't get past the fact that he killed people. Superman does not kill. Superman does…
You know what? I totally disagree with you, but I like that you can just say that without the need to get defensive or insult anyone.
Someone watched Winter Soldier and decided to add “that thing they did!” to the movie.
