I don’t dislike the first MoS or Bvs because Batman and Superman kill in them. I dislike them because they (and SS) are bad movies.

It depresses me that this article isn’t the dumbest take I’ve read in even the past couple days (I read a column about the Cosby trial yesterday that made me want to throw the Earth into the Sun).

Winners:

I was saying above, I thought MoS had a lovely soundtrack, I love Flight, but I also think it lacked a great/memorable central fanfare style theme. A “Here comes our hero/epic tale” bit like Williams had for the old Superman movies or Elfman had for the old Batman movies, or Poledouris had for Conan. When people…

I think Man of Steel had some wonderful music, except for a central “Superman fanfare” type theme.

Graphics, day night cycles, blah blah big universe blah. I’m sure it’s all very nice, I don’t care.

Yeah, I’m going to really struggle to tell Ezra Miller apart from Jason Momoa, what with the same hair color.

To be fair, if you think all the games in the genre are subpar, then that means there’s space for someone to make the “great one”.

Yeah, it’s like Blizzard making a first person shooter...madness.

One of the great things about being a kid is the ability to feel about things unironically.

Someone at Marvel who deals with the Black Panther property really likes Run the Jewels (the rap duo featured in the trailer). When Marvel was doing Hip Hop album-themed variant covers, Black Panther got a Run the Jewels cover. and RtJ was the soundtrack for the Black Panther motion comic thing from last year as…

My initial comment was not flippant or a throwaway. I was completely serious. I also think people are overreacting to my use of the word ghettoized, I use to to speak of segmentation and categorization, nothing more. I didn’t use it to be cute or as some kind of double entendre. I don’t care if a handful of randoms…

Actually, I’m going to give this a more serious answer. I don’t care if there are articles about Black Panther on The Root. But Marvel has made 15 of these damned things, and it will drive me insane if the overarching cultural take on Black Panther winds up being “Oh, that’s the black one, with the black people, for…

Uh, sure.

I’d prefer that this movie out of all the Marvel movies wasn’t ghettoized out of i09 because the characters/director are black.

It’s a teaser trailer for a movie 8 months away, they barely have any finished shots to use at this point.

Lower lip, it’s a lip plate/disc, they can be removed.

That rule loses you some really good movies. Scarface, The Departed, Magnificent 7, Cape Fear, The Thing, Invasion of the Body Snatchers. It’s a bad rule.

Enh. The last one was 30 years ago and that was underseen. When you’re looking at decades of special effects changes and decades of political stuff (these movies tend to be allegories for contemporary anxieties), I don’t object to stories being retold for new generations, any more than re-dos of stories from…

Too small for Barda, but the others, sure.
