I probably own more comics than 99% of people on here. I actually preferred Marvel more than DC growing up and I actually like a lot of MCU movies. What I don't like however are stupid arguments. I don't get the mental gymnastics people go through to justify things such as why: Christopher Reeves engaged in cold blooded murder of Zod with literally a wink and a smile is OK but neck snapping a warlord who promised genocide is unforgivable. I recall Kevin Smith and supposed Superman superfan Ralph Garman debating MOS and he was saying Superman should never kill and Kevin Smith reminded him Zod was killed in Superman 2 and he just was shut silent and then said he still didn't like it.
Participated in premeditated violence against the trucker in the original film is fine but walking away and smashing a car like he did in his first issue and on the front cover is verboten.
Giving up his powers for reasons despite Lois's biggest turns on being super powered men in capes,
People criticising scraping Zod's face against glass in MOS but ignore Superman punching kryptonians through building in Superman 2,
People pretend Superman didn't punch bad guys through buildings in broad daylight during the Superman animated series and those who do concede that point, justify that it's OK for Superman to do so because he needed to let loose and that's why setting fire to tankers on a busy bridge is fine too
Don't get me started on Batman killing and how I literally posted a audio interview with Jonathan Nolan saying their Batman's no kill rule is not logically consistent, Chris Nolan admitted it made no sense but it was shot and filmed so fuck it. But when BVS says many times Batman's killing is a new thing, people insist it makes no sense because they want to live the lie Batman must not kill. It's fucking stupid. I have faith people are just too stubborn to concede defeat than to admit they don't fucking get it. I mean I could point out that people understood Klaw kept his head down despite the BP chasing him. This is despite the plot hole in the BP movie claiming Klaw was persona non grata in Wakanda, he was only let off with a warning to stop being a naughty boy and branded if you go by AoU, though it is a bit of plothole for someone who is public enemy number 1 being let free. Not totally pertinent i admit but still.
Oh and if you can't admit that an exhausted Wonder Woman binding Doomsday with her lasso that stopped Doomsday's heat vision and Superman using his Superspeed and Superstrength to impale him, makes logical sense then you are just too stubborn to concede clear points.
I have posted bulletpoints of the many Superman/Lex Luthor shit the characters exhibit, i have watched the Moviebob video on problems with BVS and pointed out the outright lies he espouses and rebutted the common misconceptions. I think I like arguing on the internet too much. But I thin the main reason a lot of these complaints piss me off is that we will get worst movies as a result. Suicide Squad is too dark? Let's butcher the editing, crow bar in jokes and weirdly placed Eminem and release it. I say this as someone who doesn't hate SS but i can see some of the problems.
Then to conclude with JL, people complained BVS was too long, too dark, batman killed and Lex's motivation, so they made the film insanely short, forced levity, had Batman let criminals get away and made the villlain's motivation be as paper thin as that guy in Guardians 1 except WB haven't garnered enough good will with audiences to get away with dumb shit like dance battles to distract the big bad. I say this as a guy who mostly liked Guardians.
I could probably go on and on but honestly this is a waste of time.
