Why is it harder to talk to someone underwater than in air? The answer is that sound couples poorly from air to water. When you talk, you do so by emitting air and then sending compression waves through this air. Your lungs provide the burst of air, and your vibrating vocal cords and mouth imprint the appropriate sound waveform on the air. In order for someone underwater to hear you, the sound waves have to go from the air in your mouth into the water surrounding you. Sound waves have a hard time going from air into water and mostly get reflected at the air-water interface instead of being transmitted into the water. If your lungs and airways were filled with water, and if your vocal cords and lungs were tuned to handle water, you would do a better job of generating sound underwater as there would no longer be an air-water interface.

Gravedigger 07-23-2018 07:11 AM

Let's be honest, the main reason for DC being an issue was Zach Snyder. The dark tones, the lack of fun and humor, it was all Zach Snyders direction and art style. I'm glad he's stepped out of the fold now so they can invite new directors in that will understand what drives audiences to the movies nowadays.

Yep. I'm fine with it and WB needs to let them do their thing.

keg in kc 07-23-2018 04:04 PM

He may be taking the blame for the tone, and some of that's justified since he was the front man, but DC and WB execs all signed off on everything he did.

I, personally, still don't have a problem with it. They didn't want to do the same thing that Marvel was already doing. And that's fine. The movies themselves just needed to be better executed.

Although (and one caveat: I still haven't seen JL) I still don't think those movies are nearly as bad as their critical reaction. And we're going to see more and more of that as social media grows. The hive mind decides what's good and what's not.

They were shit. The hive mind has nothing to do with whether or not the movies were shit. Bad stories, direction and the like are the determinants.

The hive mind raved about Wonder Woman, after all.

That's exactly what I mean. They weren't shit in my opinion. They could have been better, but I didn't consider them bad. Just not good. But it doesn't do me any good to explain that to anybody online, because your reaction is exactly what I'm referring to.

What I mean by hive mind is that there's no discussion about anything in social media (and this place is social media...). There's only conflict. My team versus your team. Everything has to be black or white. Anything you talk about has to be either awesome or awful. There's no middle ground, and 90% of any discussion about anything is really just people trying to convert everybody to their side.

And that's where I go to the hive mind. It's taking over what used to be discussion about everything. Movies. Sports. Politics.

Humanity is now borg. Resistance is futile.

  1. The DCU movies have been shit. I could delve into why, but that's been done in the appropriate threads, so it doesn't need repeating. You're welcome to your opinion on them, though. That's the beauty of the medium. And that leads to...
  2. ... It's ok if you like movies that you understand are bad. It's also ok if you can't rate movies for quality. You just have to accept that you like bad movies, or can't evaluate movies for quality, and take it into account. I can't judge the relative quality of Eastern European movies for shit because I still miss too many subtleties of the cultures, but I accept that, so I don't go blaming Eastern Europeans for liking one of their films more than another.
  3. There's plenty of reasonable discussion still going on with social media. You just have to go to the right sites or find the right groups. If you're using Twitter or Facebook, you've nobody but yourself to blame.

MarkDavis'Haircut 07-24-2018 02:52 AM

He was alright in Justice League but that entire movie was just one large gloom fest. It was the first time I watched a movie in theaters and understood what people meant by cookie cutter.

bowener 07-24-2018 08:45 AM

Oh god, so much of that CGI looked cringe-worthy. I hope it improves for the final cut.

Also, Momoa may look the part, but god damn he is just an awful actor.

I think it's funny. Like a cartoon character. I don't want JPB to change, don't get me wrong. Constantly posting like you're the most miserable human on earth is funny. Intentional or not.

Not everyone. But it's become the majority. But I'm including all online posting like twitter, the Facebook, and so on

So Atlantis is essentially White Wakanda?

And for the record, I still think the constant need to bitch about the DC Universe is stupid. Apart from Suicide Squad, those movies have ranged from tolerably brainless to genuinely good.

And if this has as much Amber Heard in it as it appears, I'm on board. I mean, I know she has to have contracted some of Johnny Depp's various diseases and terminal crazy, but still - that girl's good lookin' right there. Not sure the fake red hair works, but whatever.

Chiefspants 07-24-2018 04:14 PM

I think Snyder's biggest mistake was making ****ing Superman a miserable son of a *****.

Superman could easily handle a dark universe, but to bastardize that character like that should have raised red flags from the moment Man of Steel hit theaters.

I loved Ben Affleck as Batman infinitely more from scene 1 than I ever felt about Cavill's SuperBland. Seriously, nail Supes characterization and I'd argue WB would be in much better standing than they are now. Instead we got Sullenman.

Like, imagine if Iron Man botched Tony Stark's characterization. I'd argue Man of Steel had every bit the potential (probably moreso, people were already way more invested in Superman than they were in Iron Man in 2008) to launch WB's franchise like Iron Man did for Marvel, but it just didn't happen.

Suicide squad suffered from a schizophrenic tone and too many characters. They should of done something more down to Earth and a reason why Waller would call supervillains rather than the people she had files one. I for one would of stole from the comics and had Cheshire steal a US nuclear weapon and hold some country, Qurac, for ransom.

That is something you don't want people you don't control fully knowing about.

kysirsoze 07-24-2018 08:10 PM

The only decent DC movie of this crop is Wonder Woman and even that is wildly overrated. I think people were so excited to see a fun, coherent movie that they went nuts for it. (Plus the female lead angle gave it a boost)

This looks totally ****ing brain dead and more of what we got in Justice League. It could, however be a fun brand of brain dead with James Wan directing so I'm holding out hope for that.

The extended cut was pretty decent. The theatrical release took out some parts that were pretty necessary for the movie, IMO.

The extended cut is damn long and I can understand how someone that has seen the regular release wouldn't want to sit through a longer version of it, but if you want to see what the filmmakers were actually trying to do there (and, IMO, actually did pretty well), try to find some time to watch the extended cut. I think they call it the Directors Edition or something like that.

It's a worthwhile endeavor.

Justice League had the same problem that a lot of Marvel movies had - just an incredible wrote, bland villain. But I thought the 'league' was pretty good; well casted and well performed. They could put a little more effort into grumbly cyborg guy next time (the CGI looked dated from the moment the movie came out), but otherwise it falls in the same "okay - this is fine' sort of realm for me and with some genuinely interesting parts.

Then again, I don't hate Cavill's superman as much as everyone else does. And I really liked the optimistic sort of turn he took into what I would consider the 'golden age' Superman when he returned.

I thought Justice League was a nice step in the right direction but I'm betting they lose Affleck before they really find strong purchase.

No, but thinking that is where your problem lies. Even the studio acknowledges, by its actions, that the movies have been crap.

Justice League and Whedon's Supes (CGI no stache aside) were a definite improvement from the previous entries in the franchise.

I was already going to go see this movie, this just hypes it up a notch for me.

DJ's left nut 11-19-2018 03:22 PM

3 things.

1) I would still be more likely to see this movie if there were just 10 minutes of Amber Heard getting railed somewhere in there. They could tastefully integrate it into the plot - I'm fine with that.

2) I was watching the first Tim Burton Batman (Keaton) and realized that I've gotten 'origin story' fatigue. That movie started and Batman was just Batman. I guess there was some Joker origin in there but I didn't need to spend 40 minutes watching the hero build the batcave. I think audiences have kinda come to demand that in these massive universes but I kinda liked the 'hey - here's your superhero, enjoy' approach.

3) I don't like Willem DeFoe. I feel like I want to like him and I'm a bad moviegoer for not liking him. But I didn't even really care for him in John Wick. He's going to be chewing scenery at his own funeral; just over-acts something awful.

1) Yes. God yes. She has an untethered sexual attraction to her. Hell yes. (Just try not to think about her jumping up and down on Johnny Depp's crazy ass to keep the insta-boner alive)

2) I think this is yet another angle where Marvel is way ahead of the curve over DC. In Infinity War, Thanos' Black Order were just part of the story without us knowing the who, what, when and where. I liked that, a lot. I hope they choose to do that more and more as new characters get introduced. You could kind of argue that Spiderman got the same treatment when he jumped ship to the Marvel Universe in Civil War, even if we all already knew THAT particular Spiderman's story. Incidentally, that was one of my personal problems with Justice League - so much backstory when we all know the stories.

I think in Justice League they had to do the back story thing. The DC universe just isn't as developed as Marvels to most audiences.

@andrewbdyce: Aquaman is a breathtakingly beautiful, weird, badass, FUN idea of a modern superhero fantasy (anime) and makes zero apologies. Second half's one cheer/laugh after another.

Imagine '80s Schwarzenegger starring in "Hideo Kojima's AVATAR" and you're most of the way there. #Aquaman https://twitter.com/andrewbdyce/stat...430720/photo/1

@GermainLussier: Aquaman is a big, fun, wild ride. It’s unabashedly melodramatic and over the top with the largest, most ambitious sense of scale imaginable. Parts of it are kind of bad but they are not the majority and, oddly, still fit in with the cartoony tone. 2nd best DCU movie. YEEEAAHH! https://twitter.com/GermainLussier/s...614720/photo/1

@elmayimbe: #Aquaman is AWESOME & absolutely delivers! Not only is @prideofgyypsies the King of Atlantis, but also the newly crowned King of the DCEU! [emoji823][emoji146] I can't wait to see it again! https://twitter.com/elmayimbe/status...330817/video/1

Ari is going to be pissed that Vinny isn't Aquaman.

You know, I've been rewatching some of the DC stuff on HBO and TNT recently to kill time, they're not bad.

I enjoyed Justice League, Wonder Woman is a good flick with Gal being just frickin beautiful.

I would like to believe in another life in the multiverse somewhere i'm married to a smoking hot Israeli.

I'd rate the best DC movies so far are Wonder Woman, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman Ultimate Edition, Justice League, Suicide Squad. The theatrical bvs is garbage.

I expect Aquaman and Shazam to be in the top 3 soon. Atleast imo. I'm very excited for Aquaman.

I mentioned that...probably in this thread.

BvS is actually pretty good with the ultimate edition.

That said....I fell asleep during Wonder Woman {ducks}.

I just...don't get it. I love period movies. I love smoking hot Israeli's. I like Chris Pine and really wanted to like it. It just didn't get there for me. It wasn't a Suicide Squad level piece of shit (that's really among the worst movies I've ever seen), but I never thought it was that great either.

I just have a far different outlook on the DC movies than most, I think. I liked Man of Steel thought he last 10 minutes of just wanton carnage became laughably ridiculous. I thought DC did a nice job, though, of responding to that by making it a central component to the Superman story going forward; the dude's best intentions are still capable of causing trillions of dollars in damage/economic upheaval and costing thousands of lives.

I very much doubt that was the original intent of the ending of that movie, but they did a nice job of incorporating that shortcoming into the DC Universe and trying to turn it on its head.

WW was OK at best. But it was a woman so it was the best movie ever for so many people. I felt the same thing with Black Panther. It was probably a little better than WW but it still wasn't that great either. I felt because it was an all black cast(minus one or two exceptions) you got all the hype and pressure to say it was this great movie.

I could never get past the most advanced society in the world having war rhinos and LITERALLY CHUCKING SPEARS!

I'll give it credit for having the most compelling conflict of all the Marvel series and Michael B. Jordan kicks significant amounts of ass. But apart from that it was just another comic book movie but with more vibrant colors. Take the race thing out of it and I think it is viewed as a good Marvel movie but not this masterpiece that it was being portrayed as. I mean FFS, there's an okay chance it gets best picture. That's just nutty.

The funniest thing about that look is she catches herself and looks away like "FOCUS!"

That is funny as ****.

Not saying Pine isn't attractive.. but shouldn't Gal have better standards as for who she directs a lip bite at?

Sure-Oz 12-02-2018 08:23 PM

Saw the trailer for this in the theater today. Damn it got me pumped. It looked incredible on the big screen

I agree, I saw it before Halloween and yeah I'm ready.

sully1983 12-03-2018 03:28 PM

FTR , Pine in real life (literally ) seems like his Captain Kirk role in Star Trek . In other words, dude is a full on P.I.M.P.

Google "Olivia Munn's texts to Chris Pine" (NSFW for sure haha)

Or "shit, I'm married!! With a kid!!!!"

But yeah, she's damn near drooling and it's hilarious. She's also just plain cute as hell.
