What was up with that? What has happened to those guys?
>>216956028It's almost 10 years ago.
>>216956028/tv/ used to have diverse opinions. Instead of just /pol/trannies spewing their vomit all over the place.
>>216956028the contrarianism got too tiring even for this board
>>216956028The whole Snyderverse praise thing started as shitposting love for obviously terrible movies but then retards came here during the election tourist surge and thought it was a real thing and started defending them seriously. It's only finally fucking stopped, for the most part.
>>216956028It was part of their job to promote it. It's called astroturfing. You have the same thing going on with the new Superman movie.
>>216956073you’re not allowed to discuss cape media or really anything that’s popular. if you try to talk about anything other than the sopranos or boomer movies, you get accused of being brown or a shill. i’ve had to go to other boards to discuss things because nu /tv/ has become a shithole.
>>216956101There was barely any discussion about it but whereas with BvS autists used to post about symbolism and Arthurian references all the time.
>>216956101>Everyone who has ever discussed anything on 4chan is an advertiser who’s trying to heckin sell something to me AHHHHHH I’M GOING INSAAAAANE!What’s it like living with schizophrenia?
>>216956111It's such a narrow list of things they enjoy too. Sopranos, Breaking bad, Robocop, Starship Troopers, Conan the barbarian, etc... Even lotr gets called capeshit these days. BORING!
>>216956028I can't believe I shat on those folks. They seem quaint compared to the losers that infest the board now.
Nothing. It was a great movie and might still be my favourite superhero movie. Snyder almost single handedly elevated the genre to a place of artistic legitimacy.
>>216956028Snyder recreated Watchmen and 300 page for page, and then fucked up making his own superman and Batman movieWhy the fuck didn't he just adapt a graphic novel again?
>>216956819he tried to with TDKR but realized he was supposed to be making a Superman sequel so he tried to awkwardly cram in the Death of Superman too
Reminder Leto Joker was raped by Darkside army and turned into The Raped (canon in Snyder Director's Cut)
>>216956819>Snyder recreated Watchmen...page for pageHe adapted Watchmen scene by scene and still managed to completely miss the point of the book and turn it into a badass fest of people punching through walls. Acting like Watchmen is a good adaptation of the comics is a midwit take, although the movie is actually watchable on its own which is rare for Snyder movies.
>>216956028How is this a debate? Superman can just attack Batman's mouth area, where he has no amour, and probably severe his spinal cord instantaneously leaving batman defeated. This is not even close.
>>216956965really the Watchmen sucks as a movie but a couple of individual scenes and segments in it are the highest order of kino. Dr. Manhattan's origin(a segment where Snyder's obsession with slow-mo is actually appropriate), Nite Owl's I's death, Rorschach in prison come to mind. But it's a movie very much less than the sum of its parts and dragged down by Snyder's autistic teenage sensibilities and need to shove in shitty slow-mo action shlock into everything to make it "cooler".
>>216956965The only thing he changed about it was getting rid of the alien octopus and not having the pirate shitAlan moore is a hack and unironically thought Rorschach was the bad guy, and that veidt did the right thing. Anyone with half a brain cell knows peace is only temporary. And all veidt did give Russia more time.Moore is a fucking moron
>>216956028Those were just memes, dude. Nobody actually liked this piece of shit.
>>216957046changing the entire ending isn't a minor change, and to Snyder's credit they did include the pirate shit on the Ultimate Edition.>Alan moore is a hack and unironically thought Rorschach was the bad guy, and that veidt did the right thingif you unironically think this was the message of the comic I don't even know what to say to you. Moore never said Rorschach was the villain he said he was tired of neckbearded autists walking up to him and saying "Rorschach is literally me". you're not supposed to side with Veidt
>>216957046you're retarded
>>216956954>t. person with a Joker tattoo
>>216957065Moore literally thought that some sort of existential uniting threat would stop the Cold war, the problem with the book and the movie is, this threat is a literal one time parlor trick.It's retarded and the only character who understands is Rorschach, but Moore himself actually thought something like this could happen, he's delusional
>>216957110The book in no way shape or form implies that what Veidt did was right or would lead to a permanent end to the conflict.
>>216956028One of them is a president of the United States now, again.Another is the president of Russia right now.
>>216957110>moore thought some existential threat would stop the Cold Warthe comic literally ends with Manhattan telling Veidt that "nothing ever ends" when Veidt uncertainly asks him if he did the right thing, and the ending is a mirror of the the Comedian's bloodstained button that the story began on as the clock strikes midnight. you are not supposed to come away with it thinking Veidt's plan is at all rational or sensible. it is intentionally absurd
Moore is a flower power hippy who thought space pussy would solve world wars and he hated nixon despite that the fact he was a peace president who wanted to end Vietnam asapMoore also vehemently hated trump, and who had ended no less than 13 wars now
>>216957110kek how did you read pic related and think the author was trying to side with Ozymandias. this board really is retarded.
>>216957179You've incorporated some culture war memes about how Moore reacted to people's Rorschach worship into your actual read of the book/movie and you're embarrassing yourself.
>>216957129>One of them is a president of the United States now, again.
>>216956028Troonicide
>>216957179All true>>216957217You are unreliable and nobody cares therefore. It is why libtards always can Only parasite on the RW culture.
>>216956028>What has happened to those guys?dead
>>216957224what a meme country lmao
>>216957240I don't give a shit about Moore's personal politics or what have you. We're talking about adapting a book. You can keep your mazed sidebrained nonsense to the other 149 shit threads on this board.
>>216957365I'd gouge your eyes out for talking to me like that irl.
>>216956028The sane ones figured out it's over. There's still a few mentally ill retards who think the Snyderverse is coming back, though.
>>216956028Because it was revealed that jeets also adored Snyder and so it wasn't cool to be attached to his movies anymore.
>>216956028It was mostly a reaction to the coordinated disneyshill campaign against it, same reason Superman was /tv/'s movie of the year 2025 even though most of us haven't even seen it
>>216956101>You have the same thing going on with the new Superman movieYeah it's the same disneyshills spamming agaisnt it.
>>216956028It's been discussed to death. The ones still not getting it are probably too dumb and evil to ever get it.>>216957625No. You dysgenics literally made that up.
>>216957650Also it really filtered out a TONS of fraudsters who were later revealed to be pedophiles and or even worse + proved that nothing really changed since 1933-1938, still Too many loudmouths dislike the very Idea of Superman.
>>216957625gypsy trashpickers and all pajeetscan go to hell, i watched bcs maybee 5 times ,watching it again soon
>>216956028My mom saw the image of Superman 2025 on a streaming app at Christmas and said "what the fuck have they done to Superman".
>>216958254Superman 2025 is good. But only because SnyderVerse exists.
>>216956028Part of THE reason why Donald won the 45Literally the Only high budget film criticizing Obamna drone strikes.
>>216956028>What has happened to those guys?Indians found new board (/v/) to post
>>216956028It was fucking annoying 10 years ago, it's fucking annoying now.
>>216956028Reddit took over
Everyone knows BvS is a masterpiece, so there's no point defending it anymore.
>>216956028What happened is that finding violence/darkness as deep/mature is nothing but a teenager emo fase. Most of us went through that at some point . They simply grew up.
>>216956028Marfa! Marfa!! Why did you say that name????
>>216957046The fact you think the alien/bomb ending or Moore's opinion on Rorschach were the only diferences proves that, like everyone who claims the movie is a good adaptation, that (You) haven't read the comic.
>>216956028The masculine, grounded, darker aesthetic was the whole reason i watched DC stuff in the first place. Not a thing anymore so whatever. Stick your comics and redditlefty sensibilities up your ass
>>216959345that's the gayest shit i've ever read
