      I've just started watch, then sorry if u have said so: It is connecting not just each movies in DCEU, but went outside, connecting DCEU with real world, our world, explaning at the same time why world is beautiful. Cause we've got enough. We have the truth. And the truth is beautiful.

      @JacobGrim 3 года назад +4

      Yeah. Loved him until he reviewed BvS. I swear, how can he like Aquaman, but hate BvS? (I like Aquaman too but damn)
      BvS has uncommon themes and both controversial and subtextual messages, awesome cinematography, music, action, story, and passion. Rated A for me.
      Aquaman has good cinematography and great action. That's it. It's a fun dumb movie, which is great. It's like Pacific Rim. I like it a lot. What would I rate it? A C objectively, a B- subjectively.
      Yet Cosmonaut hates, like seriously hates, BvS for relatively no reason (definitely no sound objective reason) and likes Aquaman despite it being just silly storylines and cool action.

He had to lose his earth father and finally had to lose his own life and leave the love of his life to save humanity.

    Amazing video!! The dceu has so much to offer. Not only with its rich characters and storytelling but by the amazing themes brought forward by the producers and directors of these projects. Just a shame we live in a world where people pick sides and only choose to like one thing ONLY. While putting the other down. If people spent just half the fraction of time they do analyzing the mcu and gave dc a chance (instead of tearing it apart) they would be mesmerize as well.

    Thank you for this! I re-watched WW84 after enjoying Snyder's Justice League and I actually didn't mind it as much the second time - I think it'll be one of those movies which will hopefully age beautifully over time like BvS.
    I love your emphasis on the movie soundtracks because they honestly don't get enough credit - I've been listening to "Truth" from the WW84 soundtrack on repeat the last few weeks and I thoroughly enjoy the timelessness and powerfulness that these composers convey in their music!
    Anytime someone complains about DCEU in the future I'm showing them this video 😂 Keep up the great work!

    What an incredible analysis!! Love seeing these deeper dives into the dceu. These movies are so much more than ppl will give them credit for and it's a shame the Gen pop would rather replace this art with shallow superhero films. Hope that changes
    Mos- terraforming/flight
    Bvs- their war here/beautiful lie
    JL- cyborg becoming human/at the speed of force
    I could listen to all 3 of these films complete scores on repeat

    Ur essay is awesome. Love listening to you (not bad to look at either). 'The Beautiful Lie' - humanity and making sacrifices (and how the music underscores the emotional beats). That's a really cool throughline you explore. I am left wondering though, how much you're piecing together vs how much was intentionally placed there. Even if in my heart I'm not fully convinced I still appreciate your view. You surely make those movies sound so much better than they really were. While I appreciate a different tone and taking chances, I'm not as convinced Snyder was successful in his execution and the same goes for WW84 nonetheless I'm excited to see Snyder's conclusion and his version of Justice League. I'm probably more excited though, to hear what you have to say afterwards. Although I'm getting the feeling the DCEU can probably do no wrong in Ur eyes. Even if I see the movies way more flawed than you, I look forward upon rewatches considering your essay.

    Ive always been more of a Marvel guy myself but I do appreciate the DC world as well.
    I have my prefrences of course and do some gentle jibing but more heroes...more hope in the world, to me can only be a good thing.
    How many heroes do we need? As many as it takes. Some heroes connect with some people some with others, but I think theirs an underlying pulse behind them all. A universal truth that is hidden deep in the essence of every hero.

    • @Samanosuke1138
      @Samanosuke1138 3 года назад +1

      “How many good guys are left? How many stayed that way?” - Bruce Wayne.
      He’s had several allies. I encourage you to watch Twin Perfect’s analysis of BVS but to say it short, it was Superman that brought him back because Superman was the only one he was on the road to literal premeditated murder. His code, officially broken and a hero/vigilante no more. He was at the brink and Superman selflessly asked him to “save Martha” who was someone else and just happened to have that name stopped him dead in his tracks. Bruce has issues. And it was never treated that he has real trauma in any other movie other than this. It’s literally laughed off in Batman Forever. Anyway, watch the Twin Perfect analysis of Batman v Superman and you’ll get your answers.

    As the beautiful lie appears also in WW 84 but not in ZSJL, I think it is a theme about the world before the creation of the Justice League.
