@TimeMasterX I didn't like Man of Steel much the first time around because I thought it tried a little to hard to ape the Nolanverse style but I rewatched it recently and it's gone up in my estimations. I think were it released in a vacuum it would have been better received but because it came after Nolan and between a swathe of more devil may care, playful Marvel movies it suffered. It's why the X-Men movies (barring First Class) suffered - the constant bleakness wears on you after a while.

Hopefully in BvS they give Clark a chance to have a definitive Superman moment where hope wins out in the end and the whole film isn't a two and a half hour long episode in trying (and failing) to subvert the superhero genre.
It looks like it's going to be a very busy film. I enjoyed Age of Ultron but I did feel slightly like I got motion sickness halfway through because how quickly everything moved and how many characters there were. I'm starting to think Batman vs Superman will suffer from the same thing. Batman vs Superman is enough of an event in and of itself but introducing Wonder Woman and Doomsday on top of that? Good luck making that stick.
@The Grey Warden I hope you're feeling a little better now, Grey.

@Vandy Damn it. You've worked out my Kryptonite. Zack Snyder-directed superhero movies with a miscast Jesse Eisenberg in them.
@Vandy You know how that ends, right?

What's that? Where are Vandy, Sep, and TimeMaster? I don't know, last time I saw them they were posting text emoticons in the OOC thread and then all of a sudden...

The next person that uses a text emoticon in the OOC thread is going on a timeout.

To paraphrase the Man of Steel:



“You are better than this,” Superman addressed the crowd. “I know that you are better than this.”


They call him America's first black president for a reason. <3 Bill.
@Byrd Man Look at you, posting in the OOC thread and shit. You're a changed man.
Alright, I don't want people to have to sift through pages of you two flirting. If you want to play footsie all night, take it to PMs.

And come up with some cool Hulk/Thor stuff whilst you're there, damn you.
@Kingfisher Heh, I wish there was some rhyme or reason to posts coming all at once sometimes but I think it's just a happy coincidence. Ultimately all but one of those posts were standalone so there's no pressure to get round to reading them straight off the bat. You take your time and tell the story you want to tell at the pace you want to tell it. As long as you're happy with what you're putting out, I'll be happy with it.
