There is just such a rush right now for Nolan-esque style superhero as tortured man, super realistic films that it doesn't matter if they made a movie 2 decades, 2 years or 2 minutes ago.
Eventually it will burn out, and someone will need to come up with a new take, and they'll pimp it out all over again.
Keep in mind, that although dated now, the Tim Burton Batman was epic in terms of his take on the character keeping the comic book element in play. I suspect that someone will come up with a 'new' way to integrate the comic element and re-hatch the whole thing one more time.

Agreed. I think this trend will carry on for a while, it's a great formula, perfect for this generation.
I think the best character to reinvent comic book to movies is Deadpool. It can be shot in a sort of campy way and still be true to the comic.
Sorry for back to back post.
As per the new Supe movie, I was hoping they'd go in another direction. It'd be great if the movie starts of with a battle scene in the heart of metropolis with Doomsday "killing" Superman. The whole movie can revolve around the flashback and the eventual return of superman in the final act.
Saw the trailer at TDKR last night..really cool how they put it together.

Not sure where you get "sci fi flick"... looks like they basically combined the first two Christopher Reeve flicks - Kal-El origin story (Russell Crowe as Jor-El? Interesting...), skipped the Lex Luthor bit, and went straight to the invasion by Zod.
Given that Superman is actually from another planet, SOME sci-fi is kind of necessary to the whole thing.

yeah but the whole invading army of kryptonians and the dark and grimey look and bulky suits seems more like your typical alien invasion film to me and not a superman film
i'll still be able to enjoy it but not sure if it'll feel like supes to me
as for Lex i hope he at least makes a cameo or something in the film, his building does "LexCorp" at 2:18

From the various teasers, it looks like they combined the first two Christopher Reeve movies - start off with the Superman Origin/growing up story, then instead of a really campy Lex Luthor starting earthquakes, jump straight to Superman II and General Zod coming on the scene with his band of Phantom Zone cronies.

I tried watching the other Superman film that came out like 4-5 years ago, but it was garbage.

RT is garbage. Especially after this, I won't trust any of their ratings. That site is full of hipster critics who want comedy and romance in every movie. Pretty sure most of the critics compared this movie to the original Donner films and didn't review this movie face value. Seemed like they looked for things they hated about this movie and not what they enjoyed. I mean this film was way better than most of the phase 1 Avengers films but the score is half as good on RT.
I really enjoyed this. I love the fact that the trailers didn't expose any of the Krypton scenes. Those scenes itself made the movie for me. I was blown away, especially with the Phantom Zone machine.
The CGI fest was great!
I can see how the ending dragged on. I left midway through the action in the end and came back a few minutes later feeling like I didn't miss anything.

think it has to do with peoples expectations
they expect a campy action film with fast cars and explosions when watching a fast and furious movie
but with superman people have greater expectations not just for the movie but how the character of superman/clark kent is portrayed and i think for many that's why the Donner/Lester Superman films are still the best

06-20-2013, 08:00 AM
its hard to really please everyone especially with a superhero icon thats been around for ages. there will always be mixed reviews because half of them want a serious, deeper story while others are looking for a feel good story. its also hard for ppl to relate and feel for the character because the concept isnt realistic compared to others like batman or iron man. in Iron man, we had a sense of connection with him cuz the concept of it being real is not far off from being reality so we had a better sense of understanding what the character is feeling. batman is the same way. heroes like green lantern, thor, hulk, and other "godly" powers tend to be a hit or miss in movies cuz of the sense of far fetched fantasy that will never happen in the real world.
SkinnyPupp
06-20-2013, 08:10 AM
I think it breaks down like this:
Action/sci-fi movie fans who don't care about Superman and just want "nice CG" and fight scenes: loved it
People who grew up with the original 80's movies as their main idea of Superman: hated it
Superman/DC fanboys who love anything about Superman/DC: loved it
People who just want a good movie, regardless of drama: didn't like it, but didn't hate it

well, i would rate it around the same for a number of reasons
- terrible acting from amy adams, their whole "romance" was stupid as fuck
- kevin costner's character was stupid as fuck
- really cheesy lines/dialogue
- okay we get it, he's jesus
all in all, the reason DC comics suck as a whole in movies (except for batman) is because whereas you can actually see marvel heroes existing in real life society, dc characters are wooden and static and are a product of a much simpler, retarded time in pop culture

Just some random trivia but that's exactly the reason why DC took a dive in popularity and Marvel was doing well.
DC comics = god like characters that are above everything. Good and evil is black and white.
Marvel comics = Down to earth characters who all have human problems to deal with. ie. Spiderman dealing with relationships, Iron Man dealing with alcoholism
They spent too much time with his origins. It's silly. Everyone knows superman's story.
1st act of the movie should've been a destroyed Metropolis and Superman fighting Doomsday. He loses and gets "killed." Lex Luthor and scientists help Superman recover. Backstory can start a bit (where did DD come from, etc). He awakens and kills doomsday.
1h45m.

I do have a feeling the next sequel will be much better. The sequel will definitely explore more about the relationship between Clark and Lois. This film focused on 2 aspects: the origin (krypon,struggle finding his place) & the action (Zod and his army). Don't expect humor or romance. This is Zack Snyder's signature anyway. (300, watchmen) Superman really needs someone like Christopher Nolan to develop all the way, develop characters, etc. Still, while the critics didn't like Man of Steel, the general population loved it
Oh and Kevin Costner's acting was actually quite good. One of the better performances in the movie.

I agree. I didn't like the pan, zooms and push-ins like someone was recording with a cam-corder. They usually do this so you feel like you're right there in the action but it just makes you dizzy. More so in 3D since the movie was shot in 2D and then converted to stereo. I would know this because I worked on the Visual Effects (16 shots) and can tell you the shots look much better in 2D as opposed to feeling forced in 3D.

It was alright. Not a bad "action" movie.
The fight scenes were amazing. It's like what "Dragonball: Evolution" should have been like.
I was expecting more plot though. The trailer made me think there was going to be more drama in the movie.
But I'll have to say, the action scenes were quite impressive.

I do have a feeling the next sequel will be much better. The sequel will definitely explore more about the relationship between Clark and Lois. This film focused on 2 aspects: the origin (krypon,struggle finding his place) & the action (Zod and his army). Don't expect humor or romance. This is Zack Snyder's signature anyway. (300, watchmen) Superman really needs someone like Christopher Nolan to develop all the way, develop characters, etc. Still, while the critics didn't like Man of Steel, the general population loved it
Oh and Kevin Costner's acting was actually quite good. One of the better performances in the movie.
no coster's definitely a solid actor. the thing is, he couldn't save terrible characterization and writing.
imo, costner in that movie was textbook example of how not to write a character. he contradicts himself in literally every other scene, and although is supposed to serve as the moral compass of superman, pretty much goes full retard everytime he speaks
amy adams role was just tacked onto the story, it literally made 0 sense why she was half the places she was
cool action scenes though, their needed to be more...they were really overselling the messiah aspect of his existence

the dbz fight scenes grew old really fast, and all the whole 'Murica saves the world once again was retarded
lol I thought it was funny how Zod was so considerate to translate his broadcast in different languages around the world.
Other then that, it was enjoyable.

lol I thought it was funny how Zod was so considerate to translate his broadcast in different languages around the world.
cryptonian computers did it for him yo.
lol i found it kinda lame how they have all this crazy tech, yet his broadcast was fuzzy as fuck. the easier thing to do would be to write something in the sky lol.
I found all the flash back scenes too much. It seemed like every time something was gonna happen, it flashed back. I get how they were trying to get you to feel a connection to clark and see how hard his life was or some shit. but it didn't really work.
it wasn't like batman, where alfred would give some moving speech and you'd feel "aw damn i really feel you bro"
superman just came across as "...the fuck this is like the 10th flash back scene, of him saving someone when he's a kid... "
the opening scene with crypton was the best. reminded me of world of warcraft, zangarmarsh instance or some shit when he was swimming in the water LOL.
the ending was too anti climactic. zod and all. it was just like... thats it? thats how he ends?
oh yeah also the crypton spaceship used by zod.. the one that went around shooting everyone. the nose of the ship has 3 types of guns that rotate into place like a microscope depending which gun he wanted to use... i swear they ripped this off some anime... anyone have any clue where it's from? i swear i've seen it before somewhere.

The broadcast tech would have to works outside digital broadcast, it was analog and had to cover a whole planet. Of all stupid things in the movie, that part was actually probably the MOST feasible :fuckthatshit:

This movie has flaws that everyone sees but is still liked by most people. I think this is because we loved everything bout the movie but the execution. All the actors were great and we would love to see more. Loved the visuals and costume and technology choices. Loved how they tried to make it more realistic by giving a scientific reason for everything or making up origins for why his costume is the way it is.
More importantly, I'm sure I'm not the only one who could picture the dark knight trilogy in the same universe as this. I kept thinking bout it! The feel of the movie really made the two movies feel the same. This is a good sign towards a justice league movie. So it doesn't matter if the movie wasn't that great. The groundwork is laid and ready for future dc movies.
Ps. Was anyone annoyed by the ending where he shows up as Clark kent wearing the glasses? Like seriously? So many people have seen his face. It just doesn't feel like it fits into the universe they created.
