go watch Batman v Superman and Justice League now!

One of these days. I'm not really excited about giving eight hours to Zach Snyder. Especially since I'll have to watch them alone. And time alone is a precious commodity right now.

are you employed now?

I am not. Theaters won't reopen until September at the very earliest. And that's only if everything goes perfectly from here on out.

I’m rewatching Man of Steel right now to prepare for the JL watch. It’s amazing that I actually like a lot of it but he completely misses the actual character of Superman. BvS will be next.

I liked that...the confident optimistic Superman was going to appear after JL and being torn apart with Lois death in JL2. I liked how Snyder made this movies its own beast.

I think Superman works well in Man Of Steel. Just like Batman, there are different ways to interpret him.

But there are fundamental elements to each character that shouldn’t be compromised.

Superman being full of angst about being a hero is one of those. Superman is a beacon of light that stands above what everyone else is. He is BETTER than us. Other heroes may react to things like we would but not Superman. He’s what we aspire to be.

Another is Batman does not use guns.

Affleck was more committed to the role than I thought.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League
Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice - The Ultimate Edition
Wonder Woman
Man Of Steel
Shazam
Aquaman
Joss Whedon’s Justice League
Suicide Squad
Wonder Woman 1984
Birds Of Prey

The top 4-6 are solid. The rest are fairly flawed. Massive drop from first to last place.

Have hopes for The Suicide Squad, hopefully a lot better than the first Suicide Squad movie.

Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice - The Ultimate Edition
The Dark Knight
Batman Begins
Wonder Woman
Joker
Batman (1989)
Man Of Steel
Batman - The Movie (1966)

Superman Returns
Superman III
Joss Whedon’s Justice League
Suicide Squad
Wonder Woman 1984
Superman IV
Supergirl
Batman Forever
Birds Of Prey
Batman & Robin
Catwoman
Steel

I’ve not included any animated movies, and have tried to stick with the main superhero genre, leaving out a bunch of DC movies and some b-movies. Not included Swamp Thing, The Return Of Swamp Thing, Superman and the Mole-Men (tv movie, old and amateurish), Jonah Hex, Road To Perdition, The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, American Splendor, Constantine, V For Vendetta, A History Of Violence, Stardust, The Spirit, The Losers, Red, Red 2, and Wonder Woman (1974). Those that qualify most naturally would be at or near the bottom of the list, and top movies like American Splendor, A History Of Violence, V For Vendetta, Constantine and Road To Perdition, don’t seem to fit the genre.

Stardust was a novel no? I'd argue Constantine fits and the first Swamp Thing. The original Swamp Thing was good at least I remember it being good probably haven't watched it in 35 years.

I've been meaning to watch Jonah Hex for years but I'm afraid. I really like the comics.
