Honestly, batman V superman=3 hours of meh.
I couldn't really tell you any specific scenes. I wish I hadn't spent my time on it. I'm not a big superhero guy and I wasn't 100% "there" but still, meh.
I liked Ben Affleck. Liked whoever played superman, heck I even enjoyed Eisenberg as lex Luther but Christ, so long, so mediocre...

Henry Cavill

I love him.

(but the movie looked boring in the commericals) - but SUPERMAN is boring. heck I watched all 10 seasons of Smallville, and the crappiest part of it was Clark Kent.

i woke up this morning to thunderstorms :) i'm a happy girl

Superman isn't boring, Clark Kent is. He is just an average guy doing average things.

I actually really liked smallville though but yeah it does get a little boring sometimes.

in superhero lore? Superman is boring. you KNOW he's always going to do the right thing, there's nothing questionable or "holy s...." moves from him.

Batman, Spiderman, ____man ;) they can totally cross that line. Superman never will. Boring.

Batman has always been my favourite, I read the comics, have played all the games, Harley Quinn is my fav female villain (100000000000000 excited for Margot Robbie in Suicide Squad) I even read the comics based off the games :laugh:

My favourite anti-hero though has always been Deadpool. Not just because of his recent movie that came out (I have seen it 3 times so far though) but I used to read all of his comics growing up.

I want to get back into comic book reading as there are so many good ones to get into but I don't know if I want to invest the time.

There are so many different characters and story lines I want to read but as I said, it would take a lot of time to get into. Maybe I could if I just read like a single comic issue once before bed every night or something.

I don't know. Captain America has pretty much the same morales as Superman but Marvel have done a good job making him one of if not the most compelling character(s) in the MCU.

I think in better hands Superman would be more interesting. Unfortunately Snyder is more interested in turning him into some dark brooding superhero who treats being one like it's this huge burden. Superman can still be a good guy and be interesting. Don't know if we'll ever get that though.

maybe. I don't know either. yeah - Captain America is that good ole, American Boy and usually walks the right side of the line - but yeah in MCU he's very.. complex in his straightlacedness. (I love Cap.)

i don't think so. Smallville did it.. but then Tom Welling always played it off as a whiny baby.

Great actor too. Loved him in The Tudors.

And I agree with DJ, Superman is a very boring character. Don't think there's a Superman movie made that haven't been crap, except perhaps Man of Steel.

One of the worst superman movies IMO, just absolutely hated it.

I thought Henry did a great job but the movie was all over the place and I just couldn't get into it. I thought about walking out of the theater about 3/4 of the way through but decided to just wait it out.

Batman V. Superman was entertaining for sure. Critics were far too harsh.

Probably because it wasn't a Hollywood ending...

you can PM me, i'm never gonna watch it, how did it end?

Henry Cavill is a good looking man

yes, he is. Ewan mcGregor too. but i think it's the fact that they look amazing with a beard AND they have an accent. I am a sucker for both, I can not tell a lie.

(sigh). and they are both married so my secret dream of running away to England, bumping into them and getting married to one of them is gone. boo.

Probably no need to PM you with the ending. Spoilers everywhere now since the opening weekend has come and gone.

Let's just say if your up on your DC comic book mythos, Doomsday played his role well.

Was just watching Hockey Wives with my girlfriend and Winnik's wife said he pulled the naked man on their first date :laugh: Apparently he came over to her place to cook dinner but then stripped in the middle of the kitchen.

Just another reason to love Winnik.

It's got plot holes all over, but I found it at least decent while most Superman movies are among the worst I've seen, all categories.

Most superman movies lack a nerve, in my opinion. It's like doing a war movie based on guys driving around in a tank fighting evil, one-legged boys armed with sticks, that want to take over the world. Then in the end the tank crew gets out of the tank to take a piss, ie encounter krypton, at which point the evil, one-legged boys swarm them and wack them with their sticks. Only through Perseverance, Goodness and Sacrifice do the tank crew fight them off, get back in the tank and proceed to save the world. Sometimes they get saved by hot chick along the way.

Cashews have urushiol in them which is the oil in poison ivy that causes the rash. I loved cashews but I started noticing the swelling in between my fingers and palms and hives in my mouth and lips which are a side effect of bad poison ivy reactions that I get(I'm one of those 10% of people who are allergic to the plant who get dangerous reactions from contacting poison ivy). I was surprised that cashews would have that oil in them when the doctor mentioned it. Mangoes as well apparently although I've never reacted from them.

I'm like that with pistachios, walnuts and unbalanced almonds. I would call it more of an intolerance than an allergy. I'll still eat pistachios once in a while because it's worth the annoyance.

Cashews are cocaine though.
