Quote:I don't keep track like I used to, especially as it pertains to Marvel but I seriously hope you're joking (no shade). If true, that has to be one of the single, dumbest creative decisions Marvel has ever made. You have no reason to make that up, so I'm just going to take your word for it because that's NOT something I want to read.

 

 

My bad...that's what happens when you skim and not read completely. Apologies.

 

 

I don't remember the Hulk having a lot to do with Civil War and besides, you can't portray Wanda as this earth-shattering threat with the Hulk and Thor rampaging around. Their omission was likely a creative decision to push Wanda as the patsy for why the SRA was a good idea, since without either of them there, she and the Vision were the two most overtly powerful heroes present throughout the movie.

 

 

I personally think you and Kodiak are both right to a point. Far superior is a stretch but Kodiak is correct in that BvS was much better than most people say it is. It gets flamed mostly because they tried to do too much in a relatively short movie (which convoluted everythin), because it wasn't funny/fun/amusing like the Avengers (DC comics ARE NOT generally funny/amusing compared to Marvel's) and people can't reconcile Cavill's Superman compared to Reeve's (unfair comparison...they aren't even the same character; let's compare Silver Age Superman to New 52 Superman...yeah, that doesn't work). He's especially right in that it gets entirely too much shade from the masses despite being a pretty good movie for what it was supposed to try and accomplish.

 

Civil War was better and BvS did not suck.

The total rage out people are having towards BvS is completely uncalled for. Sure it's not light hearted, sure there some plot holes but it was fun. I'm hopeful that Geoff Johns and Batfleck can help right the ship. I don't really like the tone that Snyder wants the whole universe to be. It doesnt need to be super quippy but it also does not need to be the bleakest darkness ever either.
