Do you mean Amazing Spider-Man 2? Wait... you guys liked that one but hated Man of Steel? Weird. TAS2 was pretty terrible. It was like 2 totally different movies in one. Itsy bitsy spider? Bleh. I did like Garfield though. And of course Emma Stone is amazing in all things.
Nah, the one with doc ock back in the day.

No, Spider-Man 2. I didn't even bother with Amazing Spider-Man 2 after struggling to get through the first one.

I liked Man of Steel. It's not the best CBM by any means but its a valid take on Superman.

Oddly enough, the best interpretation (for me) of spiderman was found in the "spectacular spiderman" cartoon in 2009 that was canceled after 26 episodes.

Say what you want about Snyder but his visuals are probably the best in the business. That Batman and Superman fight is going to be insane.
Don't even get me started on that. We haven't even established Clark Kent as a character and we're already using the movie to introduce the whole freaking DC Comics lineup? DC needs to get over their Marvel-envy and just concentrate on making a good movie.
? I really don't get this argument.

I think DC is rushing things - they should have been putting out movies introducing characters like the Flash and Wonder Woman or using characters like Aquaman or the Atom as supporting characters to establish them rather than trying to introduce multiple characters in their next movie.

Damn.. I missed the game.

I turned it off after the beginning of the second quarter. I knew they didn't bring their game tonight and didn't want to waste my time.

13 points in the 1st quarter. 8th grade basketball teams can score more than that in a quarter. This coming from a team who's supposed emphasis is on offense in practice.

Nailed it!

The most fun in the whole game was seeing if they could avoid their lowest scoring total in franchise history.

Markieff Morris is crying about the Suns fans and how he doesn't think they have homecourt advantage:

He needs to quit worrying about the fans and worry about not getting his ass kicked by 27 points.

I don't think they are. There are basically just establishing the new Batman that there are heroes in the world besides Superman and him. The Justice league movie is where these characters are really going to be established and I think the X-men movies are a great example of how to make a super-hero ensemble film without being forced to establish the heroes before hand. Also while Wonder Woman is a supporting character in BvS, she is also getting a solo movie before the Justice League movie, so the heavy lifting for the Big 3 will already be done.

There will be 4 DC movies out before JL, so the DC universe will be very well established, the only question is if they will be any good.

To be fair, he is not that wrong.

Yes, he's not wrong, but remember the support the team had in 92-93 and in the Nash era? Having a team worth rooting for would solve many problems.
