Nah, she's hopeful the movie is good but based on her comments, the fan reactions are the usual, typical angry responses from the fanboy community.
What's also odd is, why did she even bring this up on the podcast at all? Particularly if she claims she didnt believe it despite pointing out the same source told her BvS was bad and then doesn't want others and the media to talk about it? The whole thing is just silly.
I'm lost as to the context on this.
Her source on this WW movie being bad is the same source that told her BvS was bad so it just makes her complaint come off as contradictory and silly.
Meanwhile, her comments on the podcast work the same way click bait sites work. She should have just kept her mouth shut of she didn't want the backlash; even moreso given that she's not particularly liked to begin with.
She definitely is being silly, if that is what is going on. I've seen her around a few news shows on YouTube, particularly Collider and Schmoes Know, and she's got one of those annoyingly "loud" personalities that grate on my ears. I didn't know that others also found her unsavory.
This is the supposed source's issue with the film. I just want to reiterate, it is nonsense.
BvS had those issues, SS had those issues, but this particular claim regarding WW is nonsense.

Interesting article even bad publicity is still publicity, big movies are constantly projected into our consciousness. Even the slightest bit of none news about Justice League for example, you can find dozens of channels streaming that news on YouTube almost immediately.

Exactly, that's why I don't really trust some of these sources for bits on the movie. Justice League is personally my most anticipated film of 2017, so I'm not trying to let killjoys ruin the film. I was particularly interested however in the section about the poll, now I know most critics and other don't believe in film biasim, but that was a solid example. In terms of the poll itself, I'm happy to see BvS finally catching on somewhat. The theatrical cut was horrible, but the Ultimate Cut is very good, and dare I say, one of my favorite movies (despite some flaws).
One of the big issues with BvS was, even before the film came out, you could look at the three trailers that came out for it and see all the major beats of the story unfold long before you sat down to watch it in theaters. An already weak narrative is made all the weaker when you see how it predictably unfolds thanks to its marketing campaign.
Yes, I've thought that too, @fire_and_ice, but I hope it's not true.
I think something will unfold where the team are forced to face Steppenwolf and his army in a battle that nearly kills them, at which point Superman will show up to save the day. If he's under Darkseid's control perhaps he could use his iron will to block him out?
Of course, there could be a point in the film where the team lose and Superman is now their enemy, and Bruce forces Flash to go back in time to warn his past self about the coming threat to stop it. That would be too complex and crazy, though.
If that turns out to be the case, I might actually be much kinder to BvS in retrospect than I am now. And I'm not even a big detractor of it.
DC cinematic universe is influenced greatly by New52 I suspect they will use elements of
:))
You could argue Supes in the last two films is like Bond in CR and QoS, true is character isn't fully formed yet.
I fully agree with that. I'm perfectly fine with the bleak tone Snyder has established, but I don't want to see Superman admitting defeat again after what he has been through. It would be a triumphant return and a much more emotional payoff to see Superman be the person outlined he was designed to be by Jor-El in Man Of Steel. Ironically, it would be more emotional to see that at this point than it was to see him sacrificing himself in BvS.
I'd love for the film to end with Superman giving a press conference to the world, stating a vow to protect earth with his team at all costs.
I can hear the piano theme kicking in already.
The Zimmer theme? I'd crack tears.
That's the one. I think Zimmer nailed the particular mood and feel of Cavill's Superman - for better or for worse. His music has the right balance between the heroic and the edgy darkness that has emulated from these films. Junkie's Batman theme is quite good, too.
This is a particular favourite of mine. I have listened to the sessions and it is a standout there and on the official album. Captures the feeling of desperation of the battle between Zod and Superman really well. Two Gladiators, one reigning champ and one fresh to the game but powered by his desire to do whatever he can.
Zimmer's approach is obviously very different to what Williams did but still captures the character quite well, I think. One thing the DCEU has over the MCU is its music. Both MoS and BvS work very well together as albums whereas the Marvel musical approach is far less cohesive.
It doesn't help that a lot of the characters now have more than one signature motif. Iron Man has three!
Yeah, I've watched that a few times now. It gets more annoying the more you think about it. That being said, I think Zimmer's work has been pretty stellar - both in Nolan's trilogy and in the DCCU. I also really like his music for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 now after initially not liking it at all. I was a big fan of Horner's score for the first.
I don't get it. How are we supposed to judge the success of "Wonder Woman" on the past critical performances of the DCEU critically?
I don't pay attention to film critics anymore. I stopped regarding their opinion as fact over a decade ago. And I no longer their judgment after seeing "Man of Steel", "Batman v. Superman" and "Suicide Squad" . . . especially since I ended up enjoying all three films.
Proven correct the last time? For whom? You? Certainly not for me. Certainly not for a lot of people who are actually fans of the DCEU films, even if others like to pretend that they do not exist. Why is it that people are so determined that their opinion on a certain movie should be regarded as fact? And why are film critics harbor this attitude to an extreme?
