Or how the Black Panthers intimidated people into voting for Obama and stuff like that.
Jim Crowe, poll taxes, voter ID laws, gerrymandering... etc...

Not trying to turn this thread into a political discussion or put anyone down or exalt anyone, but Democrats, historically, are the party of Jim Crow.

Over time the old Democratic Party evolved into modern day republicans and a New Democratic Party formed that is progressive and Liberal.
Ultimately progressives have always fought for voting rights. And were those progressives alive today they'd be Democrats.
Tried to watch this. Couldn't get past Afleck as Wayne very easily, but after managing that I just had to turn it off when he was hijacking the LuthorCorp cargo. Batman killing everyone in sight potentially and returning fire with his vulcan cannon or what have you mounted on his vehicle was just too much for me to believe. Maybe I missed out, but I can't imagine that it was worth the watch other than the appearance of future characters, which I can always find out about on YouTube.
Remind me again why people are so butthurt over the scene of Superman snapping Zod's neck in Man of Steel when he already killed his nemesis back in the 80's and then strangling an evil doppelganger of himself to death in Superman III. Either they didn't see the movies or their nostalgia goggles are on a little too tight.
Also, Zack Snyder's Doomsday seems heavily inspired by these classic movies. For one thing, that yellow lightning emanating from his body reeks of Nuclear Man seen in Superman IV. Not to mention the change in his origins where he's created by a corrupt business tycoon already happened with Brainiac in Superman III. Both villains who can adapt to practically any situation yet get destroyed the same day they're born. Coincidence much?
^People getting mad over Supes killing Zod perplexes me as well:
- No access to Phantom Zone = no prison can hold Zod.
- In part of one day, Zod had essentially become Superman's equal, and his soldier genetics and training would have put him head and shoulders above Clark in another day or so.
- Thus, a rookie Superman did what he had to do.
The issue I see going forward with the DCEU is how they will fit in Superman not plot-wise - he'll obviously be back at the end of Justice League and be their leader for future movies - but how they'll fit this brooding, unsure-of-himself superbeing into the universe. We've got brooding, jaded Batman, we've got brooding, jaded-looking Aquaman, it even looks like Cyborg - especially if it follows New 52/Justice League War Cyborg's origins - will have some angst and gloom about him. Everyone can't be the ominous guy with only Flash as comic relief and Wonder Woman as the honorable warrior.
I really like Cavill as Superman, and I would like to see WB commit to developing the character rather than just putting all the eggs in the Batman basket.

Yeah, Zod's snapped neck is literally the least worst thing about MoS. That part made sense. It's everything that led up to it which didn't.
Lol. This movie was so bad, its actually up for a Razzie.
