I used to like Snyder, but all of his movies do the same shit. I'm burned out on his gimmicks, I think. I can understand other people loving it. I used to. I've just seen too much of it at this point.

I couldn’t even name a movie he’s made. Just was entertained, but it did have its corny moments and holes in the story. I can’t remember liking a DC movie though, cept Christian Bale Batman with the dude that offed himself as Joker. Oh and Joker of course, but wasn’t this superhero type movie.
 
Watched The Sound of Metal last night, really liked it. Probably not everyone’s cup of tea but well acted and it probably hit home more for me because I’m losing my hearing. Did win an Oscar though.

I agree with @gst8 ... “El Camino”was just a long, completely unnecessary, and mostly boring extra episode of Breaking Bad. I was decidedly unimpressed and will never get those two hours back.
 
I watched “News of the world” with Tom Hanks last night.

Hard for Hanks to make a really bad movie. But it was pretty generic and just ok. I’d probably watch a two hour movie of him taking a shit and reading a crossword at this point lol.

Hero begrudgingly rescues side character, torn on what to do and goes on a journey to find himself.

Yeah, it's booty. Try-hard, fake deep, booty.

Jared Leto's Joker remains the weakest to date.

Batfleck...pretty much the same. I'd put him somewhere below Clooney, if I'm ranking Bats.

I actually liked it a lot. I liked how Snyder was setting things up for the next films. The J'onn J'onzz cameo was pretty dope. Too bad there won't be any sequels.

These old dudes that are hating on the Superhero blockbuster genre need to step their game up.

Lot's of meh output lately for such a high and mighty bunch.

Who besides Scorsese has openly bashed amusement park movies?

I think Hanks had some passive aggressive thing to say about them a while back... Coppola... a lot of the directors.

I was thinking Denzel but maybe not. A lot of actors are pretty flippant about them though. Even ones that have been in them at one point or another.

I can't pretend they don't have a valid point. I think the issue is more in the way the point is expressed.

It also doesn't help that most "real" movies are hot garbage.
