You are talking about an administration where one of its high-ranking officials used the phrase “alternate facts” without a shred of irony!

No. You are trying SO hard to justify that scene. It was bad. It was cringey. The way it was shot was bad. The timing was bad. You can write paragraphs doing some high school report version on why it was a good scene and 9/10 people will still disagree with you.

No one disagrees with you on this.

Ignoring the rest of his statement in order to call out a single moment to mock it devoid of context? Yup.

Its Yttrium’s passive aggressive at first approach to defend a bad movie that devolves into comical backtracking that I find so enjoyable. And it’s never a Marvel V(s?) DC thing until he makes it a thing.

You what a really great way for them to end their fight could’ve been? Doomsday. Doomsday roars or breaks down the wall or something. Batman is about to kill Superman and then they suddenly realize they have to put that aside for a moment. It doesn’t end their feud, in fact, it would probably continue later. And…

My goodness, just because you’re unaware how forced that “emotional” parallelism is, doesn’t mean it wasn’t.

We’re not dumb. We understand its a call back. It’s still incredibly stupid storytelling.

everything is presented to you the viewer in the movie

I think we found a lurking DC exec. Soon he will tell us how making money means a movie is compelling.

Now all we have to do is research what this behaviour and liking Batman Vs Superman have in common.

This has to be a weird culture thing beucase no one I know ever calls their parents by their first name, be they 18 or 50. It’s always mom and dad. Granted, I call my stepdad by his first name but that’s because he came into the picture later in my life and never really slid into the dad picture in my head even though…

I was with you until this:

I don’t think it is a “ Marvel vs DC” thing, it was an example from a very similar movie that had even more issues but gets overlooked because it is “marvel”

I will concede that literally the only interesting thing about that moment is the realization that both their mothers are named Martha and no one ever did anything with that before (as far as I know).

POP QUIZ:

My guess is you’re just messing with us, but in case you’re sincere I’ll go ahead and respond.
That’s great that the scene worked for you, but explaining it to others is not needed. Most of us knew it was a call back to Thomas’s dying words, and I see what they were going for with Bruce finally seeing Superman as a…

“Most of the people I know call their parents by their first names.”

forced is the airport scene in CW

Cavill is a good actor and could do a lot with the role. It is the script writers that are underusing him and holding him back.
