DC Comics Multimedia General - A crisis of infinite fuck ups

[DocAwe]

I saw Super Girl, 5/10. Already forgotten about most of it.

Not sure who the movie was made for, having the villains be a pedo group was a really dumb move if they wanted the family market. And the flat out ugly grey look also wasn't a good move, it doesn't stand out visually anyway, which might have helped sell itself in the trailers if it did.

And with hard-core comic fans, it does nothing fresh. It is very much a run-of-the-mill comic book movie. If it came out in 2016, maybe people would be fine with that. But at this point, people are sick of the same old shit.

It was made for the modern audience.
Not fans.

This is something that I don't get about Gunn. He is friends with Michael Rosenbaum, the only person that consistently goes toe to toe with Clancy Brown as Best Lex Luthor. He personally praised him for being such a great Lex

But he went with a cartoony Lex that admits being jealous like a teenage girl. Even the actor he hired to play Lex is better suited for something serious, and threatening, but his Lex just isn't.

It's not bad just for Superman, but it also cheapens Lex as a villain.

Lex in the animated series, Smallville, and even the 90s Lois & Clark mogs the new one.



Having your villain be so pathetic that he breaks down crying (in his first appearance no less), seemingly openly has a gay crush on superman (im fine with this being a slight subtext thing but gunn lays it on so thick with his bad writing/amateur directing), and gets cucked by jimmy olsen just makes the entire thing an embarrassing waste of time.

"a hero is only as good as his villain" and this villain is as much of a whiny pathetic gay bitch as the "hero". Why do I care about a couple homos having a slap fight over an annoying dog?

Lex should be a chad, he'd be tony stark if superman didnt exist, he should be bedding supermodels, killing people, and listening to Tchaikovsky. Rosenbaum was good as a young version of Lex, he was charming, seemingly well-educated and cultured, but also increasingly obsessive and conniving.

Hoults Lex is just completely pathetic, seems like some kind of limp-wristed tard with a weak jawline. Not a threat at all.

seems like you could get some milage out of Bruce Wayne and Lex getting into rich guy drama

Those people are retarded the only thing that remotely comes to "good" in Snyderverse is when he straight up plagerizes comic panels for 5 seconds.

And it's still better than what Gunn does.
