Honestly I think the biggest issue with "Black Adam kills bad guys, therefore he's bad" is that in modern superhero movies the heroes kill the villains all the time. Superman is effectively meant to be the paragon definition of what heroism, and out of the 4 villains he's gone up against in the DCEU, 3 of them didn't live to see the end credits. Hell, even those mercs/terrorists at the beginning of BVS probably ended up in body bags after he sent them through solid walls. It makes the whole thing come off a hypocritical and kinda half assed

Well superman wasn't really much of a beacon yet on day 0 and he was just Kal-el in Man of Steel, no kryptonite was established yet, you couldn't fly Zd to another planet because he'll just come back to earth, no prison on earth could hold him, who made it clear he wasn't going to stop. "There's only one way this ends Kal. Either you die, or I do!" then you have Doomsday which is practically a zombie Zod which doesn't count, and steppenwolf (self explanatory) technically aquaman and wonderwoman helped give the finishing blow. As for the mercs/terrorists in BvS Clark clearly states he didn't kill anyone in that scene. and of course with this movie finally bringing up a "no killing!" rule to abide by; they're okay with it if its literally satan when hawkman said "beat his ass"...im pretty sure they're using this as a joke by this point. and while on the subject; when you think about it; batman brought up this "no killing" rule in the nolan movies, yet Batman killed in those movies as well, accidentally or not even if it was by protecting others and yet not a single person peed their pants over it.

@@EclipseHedgehog This was less a critique of the Snyderverse specifically and more a critique of Superhero films in general, but if the movies keep having to go out of their way to engineer scenarios in which Superman has to kill his villains or has no particular interest in stopping them from dying, that demonstrates that the film makers are aware that not killing his villains is a core tenet of his character but they aren't terribly interested in portraying it. And they don't explicitly have to. Batman '89 is the best Batman movie and he straight up murders The Joker. The issue is that, from a meta perspective, them making such a big deal about Black Adam killing people pretends like they've actually cared about heroes not killing villains in the past, which they blatantly haven't. Its a disingenuous notion, upon which our understanding of Black Adam as an antihero is built

16:46 - My theory is that if Fate hadn't sacrificed himself, Hawkman would have been stabbed for real (because he wouldn't have had the helmet to cast the illusion), and it would have been Fate holding Sabbac down at the end there. Fate sacrificed himself because he knew Hawkman could still fulfill that role, and this way his friend survives.

Aldis Hodge absolutely slayed as Hawkman and I hope James Gunn keeps him for that role.

I was so excited for this movie, and it at first it seemed like they nailed it, the Justice Society, Black Adam's power and brutality, the inclusion of Intergang. This movie should have been about an evil supervillain fighting the golden age of heroes, and the predecessors to the Justice League, but it didn't happen, because the Rock's didn't want to be seen as the villain, or even make a small cameo in a Shazam movie, when he's playing the arch rival to Shazam. Imagine if an actor playing Lex Luthor didn't want to be a villain in a Superman movie.

To be fair, there's always time for them to demonstrate Black Adam in his more villainous light, but I was fine with this because it's A) Black Adam's movie, and B) he's staying *mostly* in Khandaq and getting his bearings, so it makes sense for him not to necessarily be up to some scheme that requires he be stopped. Yet. And while he is brutal to his enemies, I think it's not unreasonable to Black Adam on his first outing as caring about the land that his home has become. I'd imagine for the Lex Luthor analogy, it'd be like if we got the movie LUTHOR, following Lex as he takes the reigns of Lex corp, building up his ambitions while defining his motivations, and simultaneously building up a dislike of Superman, whose actions could be largely in the background. It wouldn't need to focus on Lex as a villain, because I doubt he sees himself as the villain of his own story, even if some of his actions are of nebulous morality at best.

Since I made it in the first 5 minutes and you might actually see this: I really struggle with constantly feeling pessimistic. I really appreciate your optimism, it helps. Sometimes I just put these vids on and listen. Also, there are movies you have given me a different view on over the years and I appreciate that too.

Fate and Black Adam have always been interesting characters in DC. Each lunatic antiheroes in their own way, a Conanesque ubermensch... and a Lawful Neutral parasite almost too dangerous to do good with.

I had low expectations and genuinely enjoyed this movie. Pierce Brosnan as dr. Fate was definitely the highlight.

This should have been rated R. As a Black Adam fan, I will tell you that this version diverges greatly from both his modern and Bronze Age comic book counterpart. But in many ways that’s a good thing. It’d be hard to root for a man who killed his nephew to gain more power. It’d be hard to root for a man who took the world to war and spared neither the innocent or the guilty. I feel like if they would have gone the Joker route and showed his villainous origins but also showed why became that way it would have felt more earned. Or if he was the one who killed his family but on accident because he couldn’t control his powers as they weren’t meant for him. He’s not pure of heart. He’s done many irredeemable things. Still, he’s the anti-villain/antihero you root for sometimes. I love this character for the same reason uce loves the character. As a Brown kid seeing this Brown man go toe to toe with powerhouses and protect his people without mercy was something I had never seen before. I was hoping to see more of him but seeing him on the big screen was a dream come true.

I loved this movie. Don't get me wrong, I completely understand the critic's ratings on it, and the story felt really rushed, but holy crud... For me, no super powered fight scene has surpassed this movie. The action sequences are *gnarly.* It's just a fun ride, and I feel like that's what it was meant to be.

I feel like at least for me, I wish we got to know the Justice Society a bit more before this movie. Dr. Fate felt both impactful yet unimportant? I feel like for people who don’t know a lot about these characters, they really won’t care.

I heard some nasty stuff about The Rock and why future movies were canceled and i don't know if they are true but if Black Adam was what we could expect from them i wish they would still be working on them. Loved the vibe of him not being a mindless murderer but not a hero. Loved Hawkmans attitude, very on point. Doctor Fate was exactly what i expected and Atom and Hurricane may have had a secondary role but there is no doubt that they were the heart for this teamup. Wish we could have gotten more like this.

I loved this movie and hearing the positives of it makes me happy. It was a really good movie to me and I loved the visuals and the characters. I thought Hawkman was a jerk at first but grew to like him in the end.

Black Adam isn’t a bad movie, it’s a good movie with someone who was really passionate about the character and DC. It’s not perfect but at least someone was willing enough to want to steer the ship at DC which remained aimless for almost a decade. It’s sad people have been ragging on the Rock for this movie not making enough money. I loved the movie, the entire JSA was incredible.

Was this movie perfect? Not really. Did it have some problems. Definitely. Did I enjoy every minute of it and have a blast while watching it? You're goddamn right I did. I don't care what anyone says, I love this movie so much.

It's the fact that Black Adam has a smaller body count than Thor that gets a considerable amount of chuckles from me

Wish we got Johnson's Adam Vs Cavill's Supes And Levi's Shazam.

Going into this movie I wasn't expecting a lot but the supes credit scene was a welcomed surprise even though its not a thing anymore. the thing that wasn't the best were the would be emotional hits that amon and the people of kandaq had at the end which felt too weird and undeserved since we spent most of the time with BA and the JSA, I know the people were overcoming their oppressors, but i didnt feel the stakes behind it. I say keep the parent/child thing going for one more movie and make it Bullet Train. My only justification is with 'The Elder', 'The Father', and the fathers little boy relationship throughout the movie. I just wanna see all of the wins you can come up with

8:21 How could you not comment on the best part of the film...the growing of the giant man guy

All of my friends hated this movie but I think it had a fairly interesting premise although it wasn't explored nearly enough. On top of that the art direction was superb.

I love everything about your videos, and I actually really liked Black Adam, I know some dialogue and choices in the final act are questionable but I truly loved everything else, especially Dr. Fate. Also Bumblebee movie this summer before rise of the beasts if that's ok?

I don’t see enough people talking about the amazing score for this movie a highlight is black adams theme

Christopher Judge would have been absolutely perfect for this role. Rock has his moments, but the characterization here is pure Teal'c.

John Carter or Battleship both are soooo underrated

Campy and full of 90s style action... What a treat!

Always appreciate a wins video. Unfortunately the Rock was apparently a real Diva when it came to this movie, he didn't even want Zachary Levi to cameo in it. He practically said he doesn't want Black Adam to be associated with Shazam. Which is confirmed by the fact that they used the same story elements, but completely retconned Shazam. Shazam said that Black Adam released the Seven Deadly Sins on the world, the Sins then killed the Wizards. But Black Adam just straight up changes that and says Adam killed them when they tried to imprison him. So Rock literally didn't care about the Shazam story. Plus, i found this movie fairly boring because you can clearly see The Rocks "no losing fight" clause. He literally never loses. In fact, this movie has ALL THE PROBLEMS that the scourges of internet SAID CAPTAIN MARVEL HAD. So I'm salty about that. Anyway, hope Glass Onion is winned soon!

Judging by the image for the next video, it's happening, personally I wanna see a win video on Sonic 2

I reckon you would probably enjoy VFX Artists React, it's a series on the Corridor Crew channel. They break down a ton of these movies, and the fight scene here reminded me of that, since they covered it not too long ago.

I watched this video on Nebula earlier today and decided shortly after to watch the movie. Thanks. It was enjoyed more than expected. Also, Atom Smasher and Black Atom's last interaction goes back to the comics.

After seeing so many people rip this movie apart I’m actually pretty psyched to see someone highlight some positives

I really enjoyed Black Adam as well, idk y some people say it was bad. This channel feels like a breath of fresh air. So happy YT recommended it.

Can we just all agree the soundtrack was so good

Recognizing the cuneiform they used, I hope my Ancient Cultures lecturer is proud of me.

Pierce Brosnan as Fate is the best casting decision in the history of ever.

11:15 I hate that neither Teth Frank or Fate zipped in when the barrier was down and do away with them in a split second. either one 100% could have in that instant.

To bad Dwayne Johnson *DOESN'T* want Black Adam to interact with the Shazamily...

"This movie, while not perfect, was definitely enjoyable" I agree.

Any chance we get a video on Gentlemen by Guy Richie?

15:08 or Tim curry from the wild thornberry’s, that smashing haunts my dreams

Lawrence Sher's cinematography is stunning

14:08 "the implication" he said in dennis reynolds

15:35 Exactly what I said when I saw it! At that moment, he'd already SEALED HIS FATE. Yeah, I'll see myself out now.

Black Adam's comedy reminds me of the first Thor movie

I have bought BLACK ADAM DVD and 9 Funko Pops of BLACK ADAM
