If someone that wants others to play by certain rules you are quick to make personal attacks. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhh - you were the one that just made the wise crack. See, at least I can point to something to say it was enjoyable, but could have been better. Hence, my 'enjoyable scenes' you mocked. If I was so DC-blinded ( ), I would be proclaiming all is well. Nothing to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to worry about. I laughed at an attempt to find some sort of good in a stinker. A scene here or a scene there doesn't make a bad movie good. Trying to use that as a defense to change peoples opinion is really a last-ditch effort to grasp at anything. It like saying, "I know it stunk but the font they used in the credits really changed my impression of the movie". 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So educate me how Justice League was a stinker, and how the other DC movies fit the same category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? You think every comic book movie should be rated on their box office. When I pointed to another movie (not comic book related) that was putting one of your pet projects to shame in that category you humped the button. Also, this is a Justice League thread. Chatting about the other DC movies derails it. You might hit the button on that too.

Bosco685 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 By the way, to help you see through the haze you create for yourself in assuming you are being attacked...

So when I responded to you without assuming anything personal, but then you convinced yourself I had, I was just responding in your language. It seems to be the category you put these movies in. Nothing personal. Just was speaking your language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though seeing your actions here, you probably went too far. 2) Repeating the same rumor to build a case someone is hunting for you is an approach. It also means 'the world is against me'.

Sure, everything is related to the box office performance and that dictates what is good or bad. I think I stated that. You have posted lots of charts in the thread showing the box office, and how it relates to the budget. You even comment about studios not making movies that don't perform because their aren't charities or something to that effect. So, if we take that all into account, the Justice League Movie is a stinker as it didn't perform to expectations, and I think lost money. I hope I got that right. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you are assuming I personally stated 'only the box office matters' - which I didn't - why of course Justice League is far behind where it should have been to be a success. Have I said otherwise? Meanwhile, what was it about Justice League when you saw it that feel it was a 'stinker' (in your language)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
