Hear, hear. BvS with my sister and a couple friends, pretty good. Questionable choices were made no doubt about it but overall not a bad start. There are worse Bat/DC movies out there (shudder)

See? This here is a good thoughtful review

Happy Easter everybody! Ok so I saw it yesterday with some friends and we all had the same reaction. It was good, it was. But a lot of questionable choices were made. Some redeeming qualities. The Batman parts of the movie are VERY heavily inspired by The Dark Knight Returns, he's throwing people into walls, branding the worst of the worst and ah well if you've seen it I'm sure you know. There were at least 5 scenes I can think of that where just about ripped straight from the comic. Ecspecily the whole "I believe you" scene. Wonderwoman was super cool and BA, Lois was her usual beautiful talented self, all the supporting cast was petty good. And the whole Batman and Superman fighting didn't feel contrived, it wasn't an excuse. You could legitimately see Bruce's decent into this helpless defenseless frame of mind. And of course the whole thing is orchestrated by Luthor. Speaking of, ho boy he is not right in the head. It's very deferent from most people's idea of what Lex Luthor should act like but you can see that he's VERY psychotic, very smart and obsessive. The part with the senator when she chokes out because she reilizes she's made a very very dangerous enemy? Ouch. Alright, here comes the weird megablocks parts. The whole apocalypse batman nightmare was in retrospect to long and almost unnessacary, surely they could have conveyed it in a better way? The fight against Doomsday at the end, man it's just almost to much. You've been there for over 2 hours already and there's all this energy stuff spewing everywhere.. Oh, and here is somthing I want to make VERY clear there is a part (this could be consider a spoiler but it's so stupid I ain't tagging it) were Bruce is in the cave and allofasuden he has a dream...vision...whatever were it looks like the flash (maybe from the future) is trying to tell him somthing and he screams " Lois is the key!!!!" And Bruce's expression the whole time is the same as the audience, what is happening?! He wakes up, and I kid you not folks it's not addressed in any way for the rest of the movie. So that's my thoughts, there are more. Many many more but I've boarded you all enough!

I like using this head for an un masked Bruce: http://brickset.com/parts/design-13888

Dude, that is THE most sordid incredibly strange case of missing and mixed up pieces I've EVER heard. Not once have had this kinda thing happen to me! (Well one time I was missing a leg in an exo force set..) I will echo the others, that gun is awesome. Keep it safe.

If I had to guess I'd say the head on the right was used during the 80's, with the other being what we have now days. Just a wild guess

I know I am! That and how Batman is handled is my two prime motives for seeing this! Excitement!

Thanks for your thoughts Kraby! I am going to see it Saturady with some friends, and while I'm more pumped/scared for civil war I'm very very interested to see how BvS turns out!

Nice review, I just got the Rebel pack today actually! I'll at least get two of the Empire packs and MAYBE one more Allience pack, the build for the this, as you pointed out, is basically useless. We have gotten a lot of little emplacements over the years though, so one ain't going to hurt in my opioin

I found the BattleFront packs at Target and got the Rebel alliance pack! I modified the speeder so the rebels weren't so high in the seat. A very nice little set

Not sure if this is the right place for this (Sorry Nemo!) but I nearly finished changing up the parts for Crossbones from the new CW set and all that's left is the legs. After trying a few things, I've decided the above mentioned Electro poly legs look pretty darn good. I bought 2 of em from TRU awhile back, one open one to save, and I'd like to cannibalize the 2nd one. After looking on bricklink it seems a sealed bag can from $5 to $75 so is it worth it save or open? And this could go for any "exclusive" frankly, I still have a sealed GOTG Rocket bag in a drawer somewhere, so what is the resale value here if any? Should you or do you hold onto your polybags like they are the One Ring?

Thank you all for the responses! Blondie, I agree. It is after all a toy and I don't buy stuff or stock up on certain sets with the intent to sell. I only get what I deem cool or necessary
