Trash is the most overused word on this site along with "pawg" and "classic"

You aint never lied.

I don't like the movie but I don't think it's trash. It has it's good elements to it but FAR too many things I don't like.

Too many plot holes
Shakey cam bullshyt
Too needless destruction by Superman
The bullshyt way they killed Pa Kent
Zod being kind of an idiot

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
This is pretty stupid. If Clark would have saved Pa, then the world would know Clark is indeed Superman. The tornado happened in his home town of smallville. Clark spent his entire life saving people under aliases and disguises (The beard).

The lack of understanding that scene doesn't lie with the movie, but with the comic books in which Clark and Supes are entirely different characters separated by a pair of glasses, clothing, and demeanor. The only way simple minded morons would get that would for Supes to become a shape shifter.

Everyone I'm smallville knew he was superman anyway.

Something I have been trying to figure out for a while now and since the BB vs MoS thread started I see people calling it trash again.

What is it brehs? Enlighten me, because I have watched MoS twice and still think its a great movie.

Was it too dark?
Body count too high?
Did the ending bother you? I thought it was alright...

What's up brehs? What will it take to satisfy the nerds to accept a superman movie?
these a$$holes will never be happy. Superman Returns which was ok they bytch about. Man of Steel which was good they bytch about. there will never be a Superman movie that satisfies them because the nature of the character makes producing a good movie that pleases everyone too difficult.

a character like Batman is far easier to create a compelling movie for.

Mediocre acting and dragging script, boring, repetitive DBZ-style fight scenes with subpar CGI and choreography, too much brooding, ridiculous cartoonish opening scene with the bulky costumes and cartoon flying dogs, very generic vision of Superman as a character. The trailer was excellent and had me interested. It's too bad the movie didn't live up to it- the cast was great and with a better script and fight design, they could have had another Batman Begins type success on their hands.

Man of Steel did over 660M on a 250m budget. Batman Begins did 370M on a 150m budget. on paper it was more successful than Batman Begins.

I mean successful as a movie, not financially. Look at the Rotten Tomatoes rating for Man of Steel (from public reviews, not critics' reviews)... even though everyone watched it, myself included, most people didn't think it was nearly as great as BB.

When I first saw it in theater I fell asleep, I think that had to do more with me being tired then superman's fault.

Second time, it was just to moody for me. Superman is a boyscout. This superman was depressed and trying to find his way. Lois Lane was made into a hero way to quickly for my liking.
