   Is it just me or does your guest need a better connection. He seems to keep cutting out.

      Nope, the first podcast that I could barely get through. Please check these things before recording guys. No matter how good your podcast is (and let's be honest, Batman-News podcast is pretty fucking great!), a bad connection resulting in incomprehensible gibberish is never helping...

   How about this, how about telling Zack Snyder to next time lighten up the superman moments, keep bats the same and let Ben and terrio help edit these movies. I thoroughly enjoyed BVS but it did have its flaws.

   Now ss, seriously WB?!?! Are you gonna have a knee jerk reaction every time the critics and trolls start their crap. Yea it's not the tdk or is it light like avengers....

   History of WB knee jerks

   Batman Returns: too dark and sexual can't sell toys
   Solution: Schumacher....bat nipples

   Tdk and Tdkr: doesn't set DCEU
   Rushed Snyder script and rewrites, prolonged filming with an unconventional take on the man of steel (which I enjoyed but still)

   BvS: subsequent excuses after its critically shredded by trolls and critics.....
   Ss made lighter when it's about the joker and evil villains....it's never meant to be the guardians of galaxy tone for DC
   Movies added and shuffled
   Most likely makes more batman movies (yay) but won't set a dark tone...

   Get a hold of yourselves!!!!

         pot meet kettle,what about your name?

         in case you havent noticed critics arent the only one hating the movie,being the trinity and all you know first time all 3 are on the big screen this movie should have made atleast 1.5b by now,so yeah there is a problem somewhere and it rhymes with the word strider...

         dude calm down, I'm a big dc fan, batman fan, but for most a movie fan, when you look to a movie in my opinion i see first who is directing it, now is zack snyder you will see great visuals and that's good the visual effects were great, but as a story telling of a character zack snyder is good but telling it for one character, not two characters at the same time...know the movie sell because of the title and it has that reviews because the plot and how is it telling was not good, the acting was great, but the plot was all over the place, and i can tell you because I watch complicated movies(inception, interstellar, the prestige, yes a nolan fan too), but for this one they try to have alot of topics(3 I think) and they make a mess, instead on focusing on the battle of batman vs superman and how superman is dealing with the world thats it no more(they rush it to bring the dawn of justice into this one).

            I'll just admit while liking the movie (bvs) I just feel the problems it had should have been an easy fix. The acting was good.

         I'm suddenly communist because I said they shouldn't have a knee jerk reaction. I'm not calling people trolls because they didn't like the movie. I was speaking to people who hated it just to hate it???

         Really? Making sure you justify yourself as a normal comic book fan when no one personally picked you out.....sounds suspect trollism

            well you didnt really specify did you?
            of course i justify myself as a comic book fan,with you bunch of people in this site you have to be careful,if you ever dare to post something negative about dc,wb,snyder,mos and bvs you call them out as marveltards or trolls...

            and then this pearl of wisdom:

            "I was speaking to people who hated it just to hate it???"

            dont really see the reasoning behind this,hated to just hate it? i seriously doubt it,if people hated they must have a reason for it,cant blame them im on the same boat.

               Shouldn't have to specify. I must have really struck a nerve from some really "non-biased" ethical comic book fan with all the right views and slants on movies.....but has a guest name....to a website whom gets butt hurt on and feels the need to tell it like it is.....

               Yes, I didn't call anyone out specifically except those who hated it just to hate it....and suddenly a "guest" commented all defensively.....

               People will hate it because they want to exploit the marvel v dc internet war!

               If you have good reason not to like it then good for you. Go have a cookie and drink some milk with it. I hope your jimmies never get rustled again!

               Ps unless I call your guest name out, I'm not referring to you so dont assume....

      Yea I think editing failed them. The second time I saw it made it better for me. Unfortunately, WB sold out on zacks bvs before they knew what it was gonna be. Now it's so close to JL filming and everyone is calling for a mass exodus from the original plan of movies...

      Batman Forever was actually a pretty successful knee jerk solution. Clearly, Zack Snyder and WB have to make some adjustments, in order to increase the box-office potential of the upcoming DC movies.

         It was and it wasn't....I never complained about that movie except for the villains....maybe I have been ruined by ledgers joker but I would have preferred less campy villains....yes I'm ok with robin saying holy rusted metal on his first outing lol

   That moment when you realize, after seeing BvS for the tenth time, that Zack Snyder chose to show a freakin' courtroom scene where Superman didn't even speak, and not show Batman breaking into LexCorp and stealing the Kryptonite. That OTHER moment when you realize, that Batman and Superman's first confrontation in the movie, lasted less than two minutes, which consisted of Superman totally ignoring the bad guys who Batman was chasing, and was a clip that had already been released online, before the movie came out! LOL That being said, I CANNOT wait to see what Zack Snyder has in store for Justice League!!!!

   I don't understand the Kevin Feige cry. Feige produced 10 years of "mediocre" films (x-men, punisher, fantastic four) before he got it right. I agree that Feige is now doing an excellent job, but he had a tough road initially. Snyder has made two "controversial" movies and people are going nuts, I don't get it. Snyder is doing a much better job in his first two films of the main DCU world. I hope JL is more upbeat and someone else direct JL2 to get a different take. Snyder is DCU Kevin Feige.

      Kevin Tsujihara is the DCU Kevin Feige...He made Snyder cut the film the way he did. But it was still a really good film. Way above average. And I loved the writing. Ive noticed that a lot of the complaints that trolls on the internet had about the movie were explained IN THE MOVIE. Lol, but they refused to pay attention

      One guy even complained about why Martha Kent didnt run back into the diner when she saw the car waiting for her outside. If they really paid attention to the movie then they would see why

      A lot of the complaints were extremely silly. Its like no one walked into this movie expecting to enjoy it. And they were so biased (had their own expectations and baggage in regard to the characters) that they nitpicked at everything and just failed to pay attention. And its astounding b/c Marvel movies are FULL of plot holes, yet no one has ever ripped it apart the way I'm seeing them rip at Batman V Superman, for even the smallest things. Its shocking.

         It's not shocking. It's what happens when a highly anticipated, perhaps overly marketed comic book movie, made by a controversial and divisive director, comes out. And typically flawed scripts, are helped out by humor and having a lighter tone. Unfortunately, Zack Snyder's BvS movie played right into the critics' hands, who hated Man of Steel.

         BvS was great! It started the DCU in the most awesome way, I'm actually sad that there has been so much negativity from some fans that are either way to attached to their own understanding of characters, people that are not open minded, or people that expected a marvel-like movie. I had my issues with the movie, but I can't wait for the rest of the movies.

         But what I was annoyed about is that I've read in many places how DCU needs a Feige, as even the podcast seems to agree, but nobody mentions how it took Feige 10 years to get a working formula, so DC can't push the JL for 10 years until they get a let's call "DCU working formula". They have to be bold and I'm glad WBDC is bold and agressive, I I hope the next movies remain in the same world, but with more dark humor, and I hope more people accept this new universe.

            I agree... I can't wait for the R-Rated BVS to come out... It would be fun... I think people need to start enjoy all this DCCU movie... I don't see any problem actually in the BVS... It was great... Because the story is full of plot and easter egg for all upcoming DCCU movie...
