god, man. off topic and full homo, but do you remember how good Man of Steel felt to watch that first time?
Michael Shannon dialing it up to 11, that unironically amazing intro on Krypton, the sigma energy that Cavill brought to being an off-grid superman, both of his dads being paragons of strength and trying their best with limited means to impart as much wisdom and virtue as they could in their time with him, the flight scene, martha being the most comforting maternal figure ever on screen, feaora being a complete fricking baddie and making it fricking work thanks to her actor's german blood, and that 10/10 soundtrack? I don't care if the rest of the snyderverse was mid, that movie alone gave him unlimited credit in my book.
The non-chronological order cribbed from Batman Begins was a bad idea and doesn't work right. It was a long, long time since Superman the Movie, you could do a straight origin story again.
The problem is that Snyder doesn't have a take on Superman. That's why he spends most of his time in flashback and action mode. He never lets Cavill develop a character as Superman and he half-assedly throws reporter Clark in at the end.
>Dobermanns were first bred in the 1880s by Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann in Apolda, Thuringia, Germany, a tax collector who ran the Apolda dog pound.
That was a great opening. The two leads felt like brother and sister rather than boyfriend and girlfriend.
They should've just played with that and made them brother and sister, then they get married at the end.
Unironically, for the first few moments despite the obvious filth of the side character, you have Buzz saying iconic lines on a context it makes sense and creates tension.
For a moment i actually thought >"Buzz and his squad are stranded on a strange planet, they have to survive and buzz will kick ass and save the day because he is the action hero that deserves his own toy"
And then the rest of the life happened
I started watching Lightyear because a coworker told me it was good. Watched until they decided force the lesbian partner bullshit so turned it off, cancelled Disney plus and never went back. It was the last woke straw for me from Disney
Same, the fact that the movie in the beginning says that Andy saw this movie and it's what made him want to have a buzz light-year toy was such a giveaway that the people who produced the movie didn't watched the thing before slapping that on the beginning, if Andy had truly seen this movie he wouldn't want a depressed and washed up astronaut, he would want a Socks toy.
>that "acting" >that CGI and cheap greenscreen >the constantly looping generic action music
I don't even want to think about how fricking awful the rest of the movie has to be if you think that this is good.
First half of the film >We are being picked off one by one by the Atlanteans. Will any of us live to see the surface world again?
Second half >There's a princess, Rourke is actually the twist villain and the main character switches sides.
there's nothing more comfy than the atlantean's tech.
It's lightning inside carved stone that can do anything you want it to. Want a fish-shaped flying motorcycle? ez pz. Want an enormous fricking lobster that spits underwater lighting and can crack a steel pressure vessel with it's claws? We literally have spares. Serene floating stone tablets carved in the image of our forefather's kings, guarding a physical manifestation of our race's collective spiritual energy and granting immortality and the ability to heal wounds and disease? Just finished carving one this morning. Want a squad of 400 foot tall stone Jaegers built like samoan fricking bodybuilders who can deploy an energy shield with the strength to withstand a volcanic explosion less than a mile away? No worries, we even have twink models if that's your thing.
Downsides: you'd better like eating fish and fricking 8500-8800 year old qts
Jeepers Creepers. Great intro, genuinely tense. Up until they find the Creeper's lair, very good stuff. Then it goes increasingly moronic and becomes a farce. What a waste.
The Bonfire of the Vanities
If I didn't speak English and watched that movie without knowing what anyone was saying I would probably think it was amazing
Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice
this, that opening is pure kino and is the best few minutes in the entire snyderverse
The parents death? Or the Jeep commercial?
Jeep
Fair enough. Remember how they introduce Jimmy Olsen, then kill him literally 3 minutes later.
Yeah it's a pretty shit movie. I remember my brother and I went in expecting it to be a funny trainwreck and we still came out frustrated by it.
That jeep is just a glorified FIAT

I remember feeling it was about equivalent to Green Lantern. Generic action schlock.

5th Elements?
I liked the intro even though it felt a little stargate. It's fine until the opera.
The movie is great until they arrive at Floston
From the thumbnail I thought those were Doberman pinchers
Hard to tell because I don't stick around. Every movie gets 10 minutes to need it or keep it.
you should reread the question
oh my bad bro.
no problem, we all make lil mistakes at times.
ghost ship
Jeepers Creepers
Shut your frickin mouth
That was kino from start to finish
Seconded
The opening is unironically one of the worst parts of it although I love that film.
Those looked like dobermans at first. I need to go to the optometrist. Is the plural actually doberman?
Dobermen.
Is is? Well I'll be fricked, ain't that something. Men of Dober. What is Dober?
>Dobermanns were first bred in the 1880s by Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann in Apolda, Thuringia, Germany, a tax collector who ran the Apolda dog pound.
Dobermany
That was a great opening. The two leads felt like brother and sister rather than boyfriend and girlfriend.
They should've just played with that and made them brother and sister, then they get married at the end.
forgot pic
I thought they were dobermans from the thumbnail as well.
Nocturnal animals

came for Chris Evans, stayed for socks.
I would die for socks.

Toy Story 2 also had a cool Buzz Lightyear opening, then the rest of the movie sucked.
Shut your frickin mouth
That was kino from start to finish
Die Another Day.
Seven Psychopaths.
But the ending when they're in the desert is the best part of that movie.
is this literally a meme?
what's so great about it?
dobermans are cool dogs dude
It's not a meme. It's a great intro.
>wypipo leading every single human delegation
Trash.
What does this even mean
Black person it's the most fitting song in the world.
>popular somg start playing
literally 2010s reddit meme
This killed any chance of any more non-capeshit comic adaptations
it'd be funny to reorder the africans to last
The entire intro sequence with the dimension hopping was neat
Lost in space
The entire movie should have just been this
Whoever the moron is that wrote this movie, he should be roundly whipped and taunted.
With the amount of effort they put into that they really should've made that the whole movie.
Swordfish
100%
KINO opening, absolute trash rest of the film
Imagine if they made this movie, except did it good.
>hugo weaving as a bad guy in the first 5 minutes
>stephen lang also in it
This had every chance to be certified kino, but they squandered it.
>that "acting"
>that CGI and cheap greenscreen
>the constantly looping generic action music
I don't even want to think about how fricking awful the rest of the movie has to be if you think that this is good.

>We are being picked off one by one by the Atlanteans. Will any of us live to see the surface world again?
Second half
>There's a princess, Rourke is actually the twist villain and the main character switches sides.
it was still kino
there's nothing more comfy than the atlantean's tech.

worth it
I didn't mind the camp but Doug Huchinson fricking ruined every scene he was in.
Lotr the fellowship of the ring, i wanted a war movie, not whatever the hell that wad
Jeepers Creepers. Great intro, genuinely tense. Up until they find the Creeper's lair, very good stuff. Then it goes increasingly moronic and becomes a farce. What a waste.
Great film, the only bad part is finding out the director was the real monster all along.
Enemy Mine. The first 30 minutes are sci fi kino. Then it turns into a weak slavery analogy.
One Piece: Dead End Adventure
The movie ends with Max getting expelled from Bartertown.
28 Weeks Later
Austin Powers Goldfinger
The Dark Knight Rises.
The opening is goofy, but still captivating.
The rest of the movie is absolute and utter trash.
Blade
Bane?
I liked the rest of the movie too but Sandman's origin was "So good."
28 weeks later has one of the best and most memorable horror openings
Terminator Genisys the future war bit is pretty kino
those dan brown books that got made into movies
The courtroom drama sucks but the first 30 minutes is epic asiatic and hajji death
>YES GODDAMNIT WASTE THOSE SANDBlack person MOTHERFRICKERS
