    That one is not bad if you go in knowing that it’s just fucking ridiculous. It’s great for a bad b-movie night.

      I went in knowing it from the comics and was not amused. Even worse than Snyder making Rorschach the good guy in Watchmen. Even misunderstanding/deliberate sabotage of everything from the source is better than just ignoring the best part of the plot.

      How the hell do you take a setting where the supervillains won and end up with “some dudes just curve bullets bro”

      I didn’t even like the comics but that was just lame

        Watchmen was the only movie I saw people leave.

        Granted, they were probably expecting some generic superhero movie.

      It’s neither bad (it’s entertaining and competently-made even if absurd) nor a B-movie (by definition)

        Oh c’mon. The keyboard smash across the face that spells fuck you? That’s HORRIBLE. Hilarious, but horrible.
