>>90972872>It's so far beyond dislike.Let me try to explain.I prefer DC characters to Marvel's all day every day. I adore them. As stupid and goofy as it may seem, the personalities and ideologies of DC characters have been something I try to carry within myself to shape myself into as good a person I can be. When people say Superman is boring and unrelateable because he is perfect I understand what they mean, feel differently. Superman may be perfect, but that doesn't mean I can't try to be more like him. Am I ever going to be Superman by trying to be more like him? Absolutely not, but I can still be a better person by trying to be more like him than I would be if I didn't. I find some personal gratification in that.
Now, despite preferring DC characters to Marvel's I still saw the Marvel movies, and thought they were enjoyable. They weren't trying to be anything complicated and brought the 2D characters to life without slaughtering any sacred cows as they did so. Eventually the Avengers was released, and despite enjoying it for what it was, I couldn't help but watch it imagining how great it would be to have moment like the Assemble moment in a Justice League movie which would be part of a shared DC universe.
When people were hating on MoS because of Snyder being the director, I personally thought his visual style complimented with a story endorsed by Nolan had the potential to be ground breaking. I loved all the footage we saw leading up to the release, and was in hype overdrive when I eventually saw it. When it was over I was let down. I tried bargaining with myself for months trying to convince myself it was better than I thought, but for everything done right, there was so much done wrong, and eventually I wasn't able to forgive the wrong with the right. That's the way I've felt about every movie of the DCEU since then. And here we are with the movie I dreamed about releasing this year, am I'm too pessimistic about it to feel an ounce of hope towards it.
