look at the smaller things too. Just look at how amazingly shot the simple act of Lois going into her locker to retrieve something is. The camera is actually set inside the locker for that brief moment, giving us a really creative angle on the action, making something that could be boring look fascinating instead.
I've seen the same shot done on saved by the bell. you guys seriously need to get out more.Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

This guy must be trolling.
How many times have we seen a shot from inside a closed or a cabinet of some sort?
and all the other stuff

Thankfully I already have most of the haters on ignore so I can enjoy this thread. I agree completely with the consensus about how beautiful this film is. From beginning to end there are so many great shots that look like a canvas. The ones that stand out for me are Superman regenerating in Space And Lois holding him after he died.
A part from that I feel the Superman saving people montage intertwined with the commentary on him was so beautifully done and expressed perfectly the divide about Superman.
Zack just does not get credit for so much he did right in this film. I saw so much growth from him as a director and story teller.- BVS 2. TWS 3. Avenger

That was the whole point. they pretend that a PoV shot from inside a locker is some kind of groundbreaking brilliance when it's pretty much done in every scene that someone opens up a cabinet/locker.
If that's a fresh innovative shot to them, they need to see more films.

Agreed. Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain just made it work.Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

That scene with Superman pulling the ship stranded in ice was gobsmackingly beautiful. I was just in awe of that scene and can't believe everyone isn't as impressed,
I'm obviously just not as easily impressed as you are. because the first thing that came to mind was "Why isn't he towing it while flying and using heat vision to melt a path for the ship as he goes?"
Just so he can look "pained" and have another Jesus allegory for shouldering his burden? damn and I thought Clark parked in front of stained glass in MoS was blatant. it's a shame Snyder doesn't know subtlety, Just the kind of brute force delivered with a sledgehammer because that makes for some really trashy filmmaking only admired by like minded douchebags who think such on the nose tactics that would get a film school student flunked are "deep"Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

Pointing out she knows about as much about cinema as a dalmatian knows about neurosurgery isn't stalking. it's responding to someone saying stupid sh!t.

That's why I was responding ABOUT her, not TO herone more pretentious wanna be film snob who knows nothing about the subject not replying to me isn't a bad thing.
To anyone whose seen more than 5 live action movies, this one is about as deep as a teaspoon.Thanks to Batmeh v Supermeh Yawn of Justice, the "S" now stands for Sidekick -

Just watched it for the first time last night. I don't know if I was influenced by the poor reviews it got, but I was pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be a great movie. I was even able to get past Ben Affleck as Batman. I don't know how anyone can say there was no story to it. The story is what made it great - especially the nods to TDKR. Compared to Avengers Age of Ultron this was a masterpiece of storytelling.
Hopefully someone continues with the same kind of movies for Justice League. -

Wait, how do nods to outside material make for good storytelling in and of themselves?
Personally I think Age of Ultron blows this film out of the water in terms of coherent storytelling. Not that the sequence of events in either film is all that difficult to follow, but BvS' biggest problem fr where I'm standing is that each one of its grand ideas is compromised by their presentation. Nothing that Batman v Superman is trying to say actually ends up being said by the piece.
Justice League, Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad, oh my!
