@themetalgearzero: The word 'arguably' doesn't mean anything, anything can be argued for. That being said, how is watchmen one of the "greatest narrative driven films out there" with contenders which are much more deserving of that title. Zack Snyder's take on Man of Steel was a fragmented story, leaping from the past to present and so forth, and this can be done right (see Batman begins), but when overused, it becomes hard to become attached to the story. Hopefully BvS will be more linear, and Zack Snyder gets over his belief that special effects and action scenes are enough to save a movie and make the audience overlook narrative flaws. And please Zack Snyder... stay away from cliches and anything generic...
i love the marvel cinematic universe. it has iron man, captain america, hawkeye, hulk, thor, guardians of the galaxy, black widow, loki, thanos and...... and....... that's it. nobody else.
That's what bugs me about the universe...
That's not the only characters in the Marvel Cinematics Universe. There is also the Fantastic Four, Spiderman, and X-Men, Blade, Various others.
A cinematic universe is not expected to have many characters due to the long development cycle of movies.
Waiting for the first trailer of BvS to form a proper judgement. Preliminary thoughts: Snyder's involved, so it can't end well, just like MoS and Watchmen before it. Probably will have too much action than is necessary, an inability to follow a linear and captivating plot, a protagonist which not only will not resemble the source material, but will fail to innovate in a way which can be excused. I'm glad the name 'World's Finest' wasn't used for the movie, so the next good director can use it in the reboot.
