I've seen mask of phantasm but I haven't seen the other two you mentioned yet. I was thinking of watching age of apocalypse too but idk, there's something a bit off putting about the character designs. Psylocke looks hot tho but not as hot as the animated one.

@dj

That's not how it works! Civil war was entertaining even when they weren't fighting. It can't be just all about the big CGI fights. Plus, I already know that whoever is equipped with kryptonite against Superman is likely gonna beat him. I'm still gonna finish it tho, if anything Im looking forward to see how many face palms it will get outta me.

I'll share my take on the killing joke too. I'm already expecting it to better than BvS.

Age of Apocalypse ****ing sucked. It was so boring and continued in the long line of introducing beloved characters in inappropriate bit roles. Psylocke is just kind of there and doesn't do much of anything to justify her existence. AoA is pretty much the X3 of the prequel movies.

I'm not talking about standing up for the movie as a whole entity. I'm telling you the fun part is just the big CGI fights and that's all there is to BvS. The build up in that movie is lame where as the build up to the airport scene in Civil War was entertaining along the way. Just watch the fight , it isn't about knowing how it will turn out. It is about actually seeing the fight happen. Just chillax and enjoy a good fight scene alright? take the movie reviewer stick out of your proverbial butt and just enjoy yourself with a superhero fight instead of expecting cinematic gold.

The fight isn't even that great. I mean seeing Wonder Woman was awesome but other than that the fight was totally forgettable.

No, I like the stick up there. It hits my G spot just right. I don't watch any superhero movie expecting cinematic gold btw but I don't like awful scenes that ruin my immersion on a movie and BvS has those pretty early on.

Also like I said, I went from Civil war to BvS so I can't help to compare the experience I got from each movie because the difference in quality in them was very apparent.

One of the ~20 films that I'd call absolutely perfect. Blows me away every time.

I've been wanting to see this for so long. Unless I buy it on Amazon, I'll never be able to watch it.

Edit: actually not true, I can download it through Piratebay.

Nah screw you the fight was great. It was good to finally see them going at it and then the Wonder Woman intro was worth the price of admission alone. Downplay it all you want but the fight was awesome.

Spoiler for Major Spoilers - Kinda:
Up until the first flashback you're intrigued with where the hell it's going. You know there's something off with the lead (and I was already leaning to his sexuality) but them BAM! it becomes crystal clear. From that point on the flick is spellbinding. About halfway through things start coming into focus and then the last 30 minutes is the full reveal. One of the most heartbreaking finales I've seen in a long while.

Matthias Schoenaerts is incredible throughout. If you are a fan of DeNiro in his prime, and Thomas Hardy's darker stuff you need to check this out. It's doesn't get any better. Same goes for the technical aspects, especially the cinematography.

There were a lot of times where the atmosphere (not the plot) reminded me of both Exotica and The Secret in Their Eyes.

Great flick Mr. F. Thanks for the head's up!

It's really a genius perspective on masculinity. That ending elevator scene is one of the greatest things shot on camera.
