Just little thoughts and shmeels; a Random Book filled with likely to be crazy things that you don't even know if they'd make sense or not...I mean, I know they don't, so-
PROCEED WITH CAUTION!
(Yep, that was a forced callback to the title- YEE HAW)...
Hi everyone. I know you've all been waiting for this one (or at least one of these and then the other later)...
But this one's going to be a dual-review for a very special reason- I'm mad!
No, I didn't hate either of these movies, in fact, I enjoyed both of them! So why am I writing an angry review? Because the movie industry is STUPID!
I remember when I first started reading reviews for Captain America: Civil War before it hit the United States, and there were people who have the same ideology as me right now- Civil War was amazing, and way better than its DC competitor Batman vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice- but nonetheless Batman vs. Superman did not deserve ratings it was given!
Quite honestly, critics are the problem with superhero movies! Most of them aren't even fans, so they can't think like us! They're supposed to be unbiased while rating the movie, but they're only practiced to know how to properly rate a movie as an overall "movie." That's why it's usually general "movies" like Concussion, The Wolf Of Wall Street, or Avatar are rated so highly!
But when it comes down to superhero movies, they're just wrong, because superhero movies aren't necessarily made to satisfy the critics only, they're for their fans! Critics try to view a superhero movie as how it would look if it did not have an underlying story, book, or comic book plot. If it doesn't seem "right" as a movie plot, regardless of its outside plot of origin, then the whole movie itself is just "garbage" to them.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know there are superhero movies that were just "horrible" altogether- both as a movie and as an adaptation...for example, Exhibit A:

However, there have also been movies that have done really well in both areas; Exhibit B:
Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publishing, please remove it or upload a different image.
That's because critics judged these movies as "movies" and fans judged these movies as "adaptations." But that's the exact problem!
Both fans and critics for some reason cannot coincide with each other and rate from both perspectives. That's why I was able to enjoy Batman vs. Superman, because even though the movie honestly could've been a mess as a general movie (not from comic book origins), it wasn't that bad! Because there was an actual story behind it- and that's why fans loved it so much! Critics however....
