Poll Do you wish that Snyder's DCEU never existed? (46 votes)

Yes 46%
No 54%

Imagine if DCEU had a good director from the start. Like James Gunn or if Nolan was interested.

Maybe even both going in the Russo brothers route.

Snyder single handedly ruined DC.

With awful plots, dialogues, characters being nothing like they are in the source materual, bad casting choices (especially his Superman and Lex), emo dark blue filter to make the illusion that his movies are mature and etc.

Making him the main director of DCEU was one of the biggest mistakes WB ever made.

James Gunn a good director lmao, Henry Cavill bad casting choice lol, Snyder had the vision, not everyone is perfect, he has flaws, but let's not talk about the past, what happened has happened, Gunn ruined it for me by firing Cavill, if the movie goes bad or even worse than Snyder's, you'll all take those words back.

Cavill is a terrible actor.

People just accept his bad acting because he's a cool person irl.

And because he's hot.

Cavill's Superman is easily the worst Superman and Cavill's Sherlock Holmes is easily the worst Sherlock Holmes.

@theserpentking: by "flaws" you mean abysmal plot and characters being nothing like in the source material?

Snyder even wanted for Batman to be sexually violated in prison and for Batman to have a kid with Lois while Superman was still alive.

But he had a vision! Nobody is perfect!

Gunn is easily far more talented than him and is a much better director. Firing Cavill was a great choice. Gunn wants actors that can act.

Bad casting? Bad dialogue? How far does the beard go down your neck, buddy? Those are two high points of the DCEU, excluding one or two miscasts.

He strayed from the source material with the characters, sure, but I doubt we will ever see the quality visuals and action that Snyder delivered.

Let’s not anoint Gunn yet. He’s not writing Guradians of the Galaxy or Peacemaker, so if the tone matches those for Superman, we will see a larger #restorethesnyderverse movement.

Maybe, but that doesn’t change that Affleck, Cavill, Gadot, Shannon, Momoa, Dafoe, Simmons, Fishburne, Irons, Adams, Crowe, Lennix, Meloni, and Costner and many others were all well cast.

There are so many bright spots in the casting, but neck beards who definitely know how to make multimillion dollar movies can cast better.

As far as dialogue goes, you have to focus on the bad parts and completely skip over the good/great parts to say it’s not a bright spot.

So, I thought she was a good WW, and I liked her in Red Notice. I haven’t seen her in anything else, so I won’t die on that hill.

The castings for Clark, Jonathan Kent, Lois, Lex, WW, Barry and Jimmy Olsen were terrible. Basically most of the main characters (Olsen was barely on screen though).

And that's only from Snyder movies.

Dafoe has nothing to do with him.

Adams is a good actress, but Cavill's terrible acting and abysmal plot made their chemistry non existent.

They are together just because. One of the worst couples in the history of media.

Name one good dialogue from BvS.

Every word coming from Clark's mouth is cringe inducing. Especially with Cavil's delivery.

And overall the dialogue is abysmal.

"IF THERE IS A 0.0000000001% CHANCE HE'S BAD I KILL"

"DO YOU BLEED CUZ U WILL"

"SAVE MARTHA!"

Who even adresses their mom by her name?

@kingdragneel: Do you think Marvel didn't do that? Abysmal plot and very far far/stray away from the source material.. Hulk's romance with Natasha feels forced, storyline is trash, some bad movies and shows lately, they destroyed Ultron, Hulk, and Mandarin in Ironman 3, even they managed to make Thor as punching bag to weak Ultron, Kurse, Hela, Thanos etc, and a failed stand up comedians at LaT, above all they ruined Mary Jane for me they turned her black and annyoing af, there are so many hot actresses with natural red hair to play Mary Jane Watson why TF did they choose that fing Zendaya? She doesn't even look like MJ and they keep calling her MJ makes me sick, it's like an insult to the real MJ from the comic, (fyi i'm a huge Spidey fan since 5 yrs old), she's a white caucasian with a red head, you know what? Gunn defended her casting as MJ before Spiderman homecoming WTF, and tell the fans to accept it, screw him!! I hope he failed with his shitty ass plan for DCU garbage and, they also made Valkyrie a lesbian, WTF?

@theserpentking: MCU still miles better than DCEU. If we talk about the earlier phases or even the peak movies from the latest phase.

You can't really argue that Iron Man 1, Thor 3, Captain America Winter Soldier, Civil War, Infinity War, Endgame, Guardians 1+2 , Black Panther, Avengers, Ant-Man and Doctor Strange are infinitely better than all DCEU movies.

Latest phase for the most part was trash but we had great NWH and AMAZING Guardians 3.

Banner and Natasha had chemistry and buildup unlike Clark with Lois. The authors just didn't explore their relationship properly.

I agree that MJ casting is bad and that making Valkyrie a lesbian is stupid. But 99% of american media suffers from this woke infection these days. Not limited to MCU. And at least Guardians 3 didn't have that.

Lol, stating this towards me is a big fail because I always use Snydercut feats for Superman in the rules of my threads.

Guardians 3 was incredible and even went against the MCU formula. Dark and mature movie that makes the genre be taken seriously for the first time in a long time.

Like I said, you have to focus on the bad to kiss the good. The Martha part wasn’t great, but this scene came right out of source material with a few changes.

Loading Video...

2:00-2:38 - The talk between the two encapsulates the dichotomy between the two heroes and two regular men. It’s also interesting that Bruce asks if he owns the Daily Planet because it shows how Bruce socially is above Clark, but Bruce ends up talking about Superman, who is above everyone else in the world.

The part you talk about where Bruce says the “1% chance,” he is paranoid. He is older, Robin is dead, and he sees Superman as a threat that only he can take out. He is taking action, something he didn’t do with Joker before he killed Robin.

That is why they show that Robin is dead.

It is a very basic dialogue in both cases. The comic book one is even corny (most noble and kindest nation in the world my ass).

The video made me laugh when Clark said "he thinks he's above the law". Cavill can't act for shit, lmao. The delivery is awful.

And all I see is two insecure characters hurting the egos of each other, unintentionally.

It's very basic dialogue with not much substance.


Especially considering that Bruce jumps to conclusions based on a vague baseless theory of Superman going bad.

It has as much substance as "HE WILL BE EVIL TRUST ME BRO".

But it is kinda funny because of the unintentional part.

Yep, his Superman, Lex, Flash, Jimmy, Joker, Martian (mostly because of how random it was) and Lois are easily the worst versions of these characters.

I would say Batman too but Clooney exists.

I remember paying to watch BvS 5x in theaters

Each time I would leave wondering why it wasn't awesome and saying " I must not be in the right head space because this should be awesome." After the 5th times I realized that it wasn't me and that the movie just fucking sucked.

There was some decent stuff to come out of it. I liked Man of Steel, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Aquaman, BvS Extended Cut. I don't think I would outright like it to not exist, it was entertaining.

Man of Steel is one of my top 3 favorite CBM ever, (also, wholeheartedly approve Cavill's casting), so no. Snyder circa BvS' period can rot in hell.

They should have kept him to work on visual style and fight scenes imho.
