I don't go out of my way to hate stuff because some of the fans are idiots. Sports fandom would be impossible if that's how everyone operated.

>The Avengers that high
Go back and watch it. It's pretty mid action schlock with an enormous budget. It had a lot of buzz purely because of all the build up to the first superhero crossover movie but it's literally just "hype and aura" the movie.
Most of the Avengers movies are pretty mid scripts carried by expensive spectacle fights. Infinity War being the one exception that's actually just a good movie.

>That's the entire concept behind a monarchy
Okay, well in America it's just kind of accepted a priori that monarchies are bad.

>What about the fucking destruction of metropolis, everyone suddenly evacuated within an hour?? 0 casualties apparently.
And it would have improved the movie for you if they said a bunch of people died? The whole evacuation is played for laughs anyway when they juxtapose it against the Daily Planet crew's singleminded focus on breaking a big story.
>Lex luthor being a whiny manchild was a good choice too?
It's a legitimate portrayal of the character and matches some of his early incarnations. Being the ultimate Superman hater is pretty consistent with him. Also parallels some you-know-whos in tech entrepreneurship who also see themselves as great men of history and social architects.
>He was that smart that he needed to yell out combinations instead of having some AI shit cover that for him.
It's storytelling shorthand.

Snyder is just a bad writer and he falls victim to a lot of bad writing tropes, one of which is becoming so obsessed with specific scenes or moments that he forces them into the narrative instead of letting them play out organically. Some audiences can't really articulate this very well so they default to simple arguments "Superman would never do that!" The real problem isn't the subversion--tons of popular Superman media has tinkered with the same idea--the problem is it's just a really hamfisted trolley situation jammed in at the end of the movie with a foe that's already vanquished, victims we aren't emotionally invested in, and bizarre cinematography that makes it look even more ridiculous.

I'll give you Star Wars and Pixar. Even though they made billions of dollars off those IPs, everyone recognizes that their heyday was pre-Disney.
>Marvel
I'm just as sick of the MCU as you are, but this is ridiculous. Disney grew Marvel from the Pepsi of comic book nerds into a multimedia juggernaut that ruled the box office for a decade straight. And they did it without the rights to Spiderman, X-Men, and the Fantastic Four. How many Avengers shows/movies do you remember pre-Disney? None, because no one gave a shit.

This is Andor all over again. There are many real world conflicts where a big bully invades a smaller, defenseless nation. It's just for whatever reason everyone wants to make a point about Israel/Palestine but rightoids/leftoids aren't really comfortable bringing up Russia and Ukraine (because their anti-America second option bias is so strong they wind up supporting the bully).

Okay I read the plot synopsis on wikipedia
>"Superman, already weakened by kryptonite exposure, is fatally wounded by the creature before it dies."
>"A memorial is held for Superman in Metropolis, while Bruce and Diana attend a funeral for Clark, who was also declared dead. Martha gives Lois an envelope containing an engagement ring from Clark. Bruce tells Diana that he regrets failing Superman and asks for her help in forming a team of metahumans to protect Earth in Superman's absence. As they leave, the dirt atop Clark's coffin levitates."
Okay fine. In the movie where Batman and Superman stop fighting each other because their mothers are both named "Martha", there is a genuine resurrection allegory.

>the Jesus metaphor is quite popular with Superman though
Yeah, because it's obvious. When something is that obvious, you should figure out a unique angle. Like I don't know, maybe Superman dies while he's Clark Kent because Jesus presented himself as a humble carpenter.

>BvS Ultimate Edition is actually what I would define as kino (a serious film that has prophetic dream sequences).
Fucking everything has a prophetic dream sequence. It's one of the most well-worn storytelling contrivances. Dune has prophetic dream sequences. Final Destination has prophetic dream sequences. Fucking Digimon, an animated children's cartoon designed to sell toy merchandise, has a prophetic dream sequence. I'm playing Expedition 33 right now and THAT has prophetic dream sequences. Merely having a prophetic dream sequence does not make a film original or sophisticated in any way.

And fucking /v/ of all boards is offended by that? This is the most classic case of "narcissism of small differences" I've seen in my life.

>incomplete and low quality games becoming more frequent
Fuck off. Snoys deride everything that doesn't fit into their narrow box of "hyper realistic 3rd person cinematic narrative" as low quality. They're the most embarrassing segment of gamers because they have a shameless inferiority complex towards prestige movies/television. You want to talk about low quality? Watch actually good films/shows and realize just how mediocre Sony's "prestige" narratives actually are.

I don't even fucking own an Xbox retard, I'm just subscribed to GamePass on PC. My only console of choice right now is the Switch 2. If Microsoft releases a PC-like console with great integration with my GamePass and Steam libraries, I'd be inclined to get one. I'm not an Xshill so much as I exclusively hate Sony for the above reasons.

Ninja Theory might survive the cuts, believe it or not. They apparently make significant revenue renting out their mocap studio.

>I despise gachas and their gameplay loop, but they are genuinely better games than shit like concord, marathon and AC: Black fag.
I don't like any of these games but this is patently bullshit if you're going by the actual gameplay. I think reveals that /v/iggers are just as hopelessly addicted to agenda-driven evaluations as the woke fags they deride. It's super hard for retards of all political flavors to let go of their tribalism.

I agree with everything else but you fags always whine about the economy and then the Switch 2 has the most successful console launch ever. The economy is fine. YOU in particular are just poor.
