Lots on my mind this week so I've decided to come back to the comforting embrace of a film where Batman's parents are murdered.Permalink On Internet Archive

There are a lot of people being murdered in this film. Which is always a shame but especially when Superman is doing the murdering.Permalink On Internet Archive

Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor is unbearable. I always had a soft spot for Kevin Spacey's Luthor.Permalink On Internet Archive

There are so many parallel subplots going on here. Russian crime, Kryptonite, whatever Lois is doing. I'm not sure I care about any.Permalink On Internet Archive

Bruce Wayne can't keep himself from mansplaining. Even to Wonder Woman. Dick.On Internet Archive

Now this Injustice-style sequence where Batman is a terrorist and Superman is a fascist leader. Now I'm into this film.Permalink On Internet Archive

Oh, it's a dream.Permalink On Internet Archive

Now even Batman is straight up murdering some dudes. Is Wonder Woman the real hero of this film? She hasn't murdered anyone yet.Permalink On Internet Archive

Off sick so finally finishing off Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Tedium.Permalink On Internet Archive

The problem with this film's interpretation of Batman is that Batman is compelling as a character /because/ of his One Rule.Permalink On Internet Archive

If he's ready and willing to kill people without hesitation, then there's no contradiction of inner tension to his character.Permalink On Internet Archive

Additionally, this interpretation of Batman is /too/ hung up on his parents' death.Permalink On Internet Archive

Like Batman is always hung up on Crime Alley. But not so much so that he would let himself get distracted in the middle of the fight.Permalink On Internet Archive

Snyder's Batman just gives up the fight and changes his mind about Superman because Superman reminds him of his parents' death. Nope.Permalink On Internet Archive

Fundamentally, this ultraviolent and non-charming Batman is not someone I care about or want to see succeed. He's a dick.Permalink On Internet Archive

This version of the funeral scene from Wrath of Khan is just making me angrier. Spock's emotional funeral was earned. This was not.Permalink On Internet Archive

Following that, there's a scene with Jesse Eisenberg and quick violin music that made me think of The Double. Stop referencing better films.Permalink On Internet Archive
