Get your ears checked. :P Dude. The more plot points they introduce, the more concerned I get. Honestly. Part of the reasons why the first wave of Marvel movies were so good is because the plots were straightforward enough that they left room for depth and character development. Avengers 2 had a bit of a convoluted plot. Avengers 2 didn't have much character development. I hated Avengers 2. The Dark Knight Rises had a bit of a convoluted plot. The Dark Knight Rises didn't have much character development. I hated The Dark Knight Rises. I think movie studios should worry less about trying to make their movies big and worry more about just making them good. DC/WB isn't doing that at the moment. So, yeah, I have my doubts.All I heard was LET'S TALK ABOUT DOOMSDAY PLEASE.
Yeah, I think over complexity was the primary downfall for Avengers 2. And it's a problem that will always be close by with a cast to juggle of that immense size. Too much and nothing feels connected. Too little and you never feel like any of the characters were fleshed out in the first place. WBs track record so far has been just BAD. DC was my first love. I'm afraid I may die never having seen it truly brought to the silver screen...
I don't know how well it would work, what with comics being popcorn movies and all, but I wonder if DC would do well to stretch out their movies by another half hour or so, to allow more time for plot/character development. Hell, it takes a whole day to watch the extended version of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and apparently people enjoy the hell out of doing that.
20 times in theaters man. 20 times for RotK. And over 100 extended views with the fam. I like me longer movies. Feel like you get your money's worth. Except Titanic. But it's the exception the proves the rule. But I concur with your synopsis. The plotskimming ruins most movie adaptations when trying to condense. And I hate it.
I really can't judge you on that. I literally used to watch the Star Wars Trilogy so much as a kid, I could recite all three movies, line for line, start to finish.20 times in theaters man. 20 times for RotK. And over 100 extended views with the fam.
