I don't like artsy movies, or real life dramas, so, I don't watch them.

Re: movies
I don't have a problem with multiple heroes. It's no different than an ensemble drama in that sense. X-Men has handled that well. Multiple villains is a different beast. The villains, unless they're fully realized characters, are just obstacles to the hero/heroes. So if you've got more than one or two, the story just becomes ridiculous and it's all about stacking odds against the protagonists.BW23 wrote:Five, I think. Batgirl is rumored, too.

I'm not a big fan of the comic book movies in general at this point, but Captain America looks a ton better than BvS. This is mostly Zack Snyder's doing so far, but the DC universe seems to be doing the "gritty" thing to the point of absurdity. Some of the shots look like someone smeared brown [expletive] all over them. Lots of Michael Bay style slow-mo, glory shots of the heroes I could do without. Doomsday looks like a cross between the LOTR cave trolls, the most recent Ninja Turtles, and Thanos from the Marvel movies.

Re: movies
There's that 3am post again from me. I want to like comic book movies. I consider myself a big nerd. I visit upcoming movies websites every day. I love sci fi and action movies as much as any genre. I spent plenty of my childhood with my nose in a comic book. I am simply tired of muscled men in suits zooming around while another city is brutally ravaged, and the Moar Moar Moar logic that ghostrunner is describing. I've whined the same whine several times, and of course nothing's going to change. I'll still see Civil War, but BvS looks to join the X-Men series as the rare blockbuster action movies that I pass on. Bring on Guardians 2!
