generous tbh

I just saw Aquaman called a decent film somewhere this week. On the basis of Justice League and BvS I'd find that a bit difficult to believe but Wonder Woman was quite good.
Am i missing something that is actually worthwhile?

aquaman is the most fun dc movie by some distance - if you thought wonder woman was good you'll probably enjoy it

Yeah, Aquaman is decent, and also kinda batshit crazy. There were still moments where I just can't fathom they've wasted so much time and money to do so little - there's an incredibly shitty chase scene for instance - but it's probably the best DCEU has made. The green screen scenes in Justice League are so awful I can't believe they thought they would get away with it.

The "honest trailer" for Aquaman is kinda OTM, both in how closely it follows the arc of another big comic movie, and in how they threw in every single big Aquaman story arc like, ever, into one movie.

aquaman is terrible, but for longtime ILXors there’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it Easter egg establishing that his dad was the kind of doof who plays bass through a guitar amp

I really think we need different ways to describe films. Aquaman is not 'terrible', there's, like, several minutes of kinda okay visuals. It is, though, all in all, completely worthless, devoid of any accumulation of meaning.

Or perhaps we don't really 'need' any different ways to describe anything. It might not be worth it. I kinda liked the film, but it's not in any way 'good'. I was just watching DC films to prepare for watching Joker, and it's the only painless one.

The decision to chop off your thumb doesn't really require a practice run on all of your other fingers, but go with god, my friend.

Better way to prepare to watch Joker is to watch the Budd Dwyer video

I am not a prude when it comes to violence, but there were two scenes where it felt a little too 'real' for me.

one month passes...

Was curious about the recent #releasetheSnyderCut furor. Good Vulture summary to remind myself some folk like grim DC, and not everyone is tied to a Golden Age or Darwyn Cooke JL version.

Some people like putting cigarettes out on their genitals, too. That doesn't mean DC should cater to that audience.

...OR DOES IT?!?

Honestly they should put something out there if only just to shut these people up.

I love that not only does Batman create a bat outfit to put fear into the hearts of criminals, he also sculpts an angry facial expression onto his cowl as well https://t.co/DPQ2T6xx6x

Trust me I have no desire in defending this movie or especially Snyder, but surely that's a set photo and not an actual snydercut still?

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 22:44 (four years ago) link

I assume the costume is the same in the footage as in the set photos

insecurity bear (sic), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 22:48 (four years ago) link

Right.. but I didn't get the sense that the original tweet was talking about the costume itself, just the retweeter. But now I've thought more about this movie than I've ever wanted to, so just as happy to have misconstrued and be wrong.

soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 22:53 (four years ago) link

I found a postable version of the photo there bcz I don't know or care what the original tweet was talking about either, but I found his frowny-face mask hilarious too

(don't think I've seen any photos of the Snyder Batman before - I did see a billboard in 2017 but iirc it was cod-Alex Ross paintings)

insecurity bear (sic), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 23:25 (four years ago) link

How has someone as stupid as Snyder not yet got trapped in a bin and starved to death yet?

Yeah the costumes have been pretty silly since they added the nipples to the Batsuit. I thought the original tweet was laughing at the absurdity of Bats and the other superheros huddled around a clipboard for a mid-mission briefing.

If by 'studded codpiece' you mean 'floppy two-foot rubber phallus covered in rhinestones' then yes, of course he does.

I wouldn't have know there was anything wrong with that bat costume until someone said I was supposed to realize it was obviously terrible to the point I should be crying laughing. Either I have terrible taste or I'm extremely out of the loop? Is a scowling cowl (s-cowl) for batman wrong? Tell me how to feel.

Evan, Thursday, 21 November 2019 16:50 (four years ago) link

If this on-set photograph is your first encounter with the character known as Batman, I can see where you might howl with laughter until your bladder emptied itself in great spasmic arcs. Otherwise the costume is a little silly-looking but nothing particularly OTT.

War Crimes Tribunal of the Network Stars (Old Lunch), Thursday, 21 November 2019 16:55 (four years ago) link

OK thanks... yeah the s-cowl did not seem particularly new or odd on batman at all.

Evan, Thursday, 21 November 2019 16:58 (four years ago) link

After Bat-Nipples and Bale's totes hilar SCAWY BAT-GWOWL, I don't know what absurd heights a cinematic Bat-depiction would have to reach to catch me off guard.

BRING BACK THE BATUSI

Οὖτις, Thursday, 21 November 2019 17:23 (four years ago) link

Call me when a Bat-movie has the bravery to feature a scene as Bat-shit as Adam West hanging from a chopper and spraying the great white munching his leg with shark repellant only to have that fucker EXPLODE when it hits the water.

OK thanks... yeah the s-cowl did not seem particularly new or odd on batman at all.

imagining him running back to the car to change his entire costume into one where he has painstakingly moulded a kind and caring face, in between crushing the spine of a baddie and comforting the little orphan girl that the baddie was menacing

Didn't see the original but BvS was demented enough for me to check this out

this is much more pedestrian than the gonzo BvS. it was also a better movie. but a forgettable one.
