It's like a console game - if there is actual danger it might alienate a large portion of the mainstream. Laughing

Oh lovely.. Man of P*ssy.. P*ssy Man"... Neutral

Superman is the real top-tier of all Super Heroes, EVAR!! Just bloody pathetic what they are doing these days to wuss-ify everything to "cater to all".

Superman is actually one of the stupidest superheroes of all time. A human-like alien having millions of powers at his disposal with very few weaknesses that people can't seem to recognize when he's at work wearing normal clothes due to his highly effective glasses camouflage. Laughing Even the name Super-Man (might as well have been Ultraman, Megaman or Hyperman) is lame to say the least. Laughing

Had such a hero been invented nowadays, people would've laughed protractedly at the creator's face. It just had the nice opportunity to have been conceived at times where comics didn't have lots of, or any at all, fictional super characters.

Oh Ballz... just invent a Kryptonite Sniper Rifle with said bullets and done...

There.. saved you a century of comic book dumb-a*sery.. Very Happy

Mind you, yes he is simple multi-powered noble hero and this has always appealed to me but still NOT as powerful as some of the Bad/Neutral Marvel/DC heroes/villains out there. Even Thanos is considered more powerful than SuperShiet. Twisted Evil

That sort of happened but it was a kryptonite arrow instead.

Thats semantics.

He is IMMORTAL except against kryptonite. So basically EVERYTHING will always devolve into some dude holding a green rock. Most boring character in the history of comics.

I've been following the discussion. My personal view is that I don't really understand why all the fuss and bitching (I guess I'm derping out hard Laughing ). The movie might perfectly end up being crap but I will hold judgement till I watch it. So far I find it very attractive, and also that thing about "So lame! Superman will be invulnerable because there won't be kryptonite!" (which I too found to be an annoying element in the Superman "lore") doesn't make any sense to me. I mean, a criminal from the same planet as him (hence has the same powers while on earth) who also has militaristic training (unlike Kal-El himself) is opposing him and you think he won't be in any danger?

he's the worst hero ever, but superman would make a really great badguy
the character is not the interesting bit.. it's how everything around him is
they could build a proper mythology about that, push it 15 years in the future from there
new age religions propping up for this guy around the world
a dystopic global north korea - an entire planet living in constant fear of an untouchable god
the nations could have their armies and nuclear weapons, which would only be useful for killing other humans
the meaning of nations would plummet

like a 'the man from earth' kind of film, but with nukes and shit

I also think he's a very boring hero, but a flying indestructible man does open a lot of doors for great CGI scenes. I liked the plane scene in the previous superman movie.

Zimmer's theme sounds decent enough.

The movie certainly looks like a Zack Snyder film (ie. shit).

+1, the VFX shots look like shit and I doubt they'll be much improved till release.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

I disagree, the film looks decent. Will probably be just a summer blockbuster but there are some strong creative names behind it and the guy playing general zod looks menacing enough.

Michel Shannon was fucking awesome in "13". So I hope he delivers.

Unfortunately Fishburn stars in it too.
