O hardy har har thats rich, friend. What a riot you are. These friends are giving the film a good review while reprimanding it for not being what the other superman films were. Those films, werent all that great, friend. These friends want the film to be like Batman was, but its an Action film first and foremost, secondly a Superman film, friend and Superman isnt long winded. He says what needs to be said, keeps it brief and then kicks buns.

THIS FILM IS SITTING AT negative 59 percent on RT. Yea this is a new generation. The critics try to shape the kind of movies that are made, but they forgot, its the other way, its the fans. :dj2: I believe this film will be applauded and enjoyed by individuals. Even someone, like you.

Uh, no they aren't giving it good reviews. They're saying it was a mediocre film, and they're right. A movie filled with mindless action and destruction that just happens to involve a man wearing the superman suit isn't enough to make a good superman film. The cast was good, and the movie had real potential, but it squandered most of it by giving up originality (and the quality of many of its action scenes) for generic action movie conventions.

Notice that the critics' rating and the public rating on RT are pretty much the same. The non-critic public feels mostly the same about the movie. People are tired of generic blockbusters.

Both those movies have established niches that they cater to and that they live up to, even if they weren't good movies. Man of Steel was going for one particular niche, but missed the mark on that.

Fred, long time first time. I usually agree with your post and for the most part your movie taste I think. This was good movie tho. I saw it in 3d for free but wouldnt reccomend paying the few extra bucks for 3d.

You take Ain't It Cool News serious? :huhldup:

Moreso back in the day than recently, but yeah I still fukk with a couple of their critics. Half the foreign movies that get tossed around as classic on here were mentioned on AICN 10+ years ago.

Have you seen it? The fans havnt even really weighed in on this film yet but here you are. Rambling about how a critics thoughts are the gospel. See then know, friend. You act like the supermans of the past have been these cerebral epics. Stop it.

Dark Knight = BORING!

A friend was in there.............SNOOOOOORING!

Yeah I have seen it. And I never said the critics' thoughts were gospel, or that the superman films of the past were good, or that the Dark Knight was good. Where are you getting all that from?

How come you're ignoring that the non-critic rating is the same as the critic rating? Seems like the public doesn't agree with you, friend.

Iron man 3 was trash breh, and ff6 was the follow up movie to a great fast 5... and ol girl came back
whether it was or wasn't is irrelevant, duke said moviegoers are sick of generic blockbusters when trash like ironman 3 has done 1 billion worldwide.And what's FF6 continuity got to do with the fact its a formulaic blockbuster

Because the rest of the world hasnt seen the film yet. I predict the score will rise when people see the film and come back looking at reviews like wow, what was that guy TheReal talking about. He seems out of touch like hes paralyzed.

Looks like they are planning the JL movie..

It was rumored, but not yet confirmed, earlier this week that director Zack Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer have been set to make the Man of Steel sequel. In that report, it was also mentioned that Goyer has a three-picture deal with Warner Bros. which includes the sequel and also the Justice League movie. So will he write that film as well?

Bleeding Cool caught up with the writer and got a little more info on which direction they may be going with the shared universe. Here is an excerpt from their conversation:

David Goyer: It is our intention that, in success, this would be the zero issue and from this point onward, possible films could expand into a shared universe. In our world, the Man of Steel world, Zack has gone on record saying that we’re implying there are other superheroes in this world. But I don’t know that they’ve come forward yet. The idea is that Superman is the first one. There might be people helping people, but not in costumes, and that Superman comes forward and announces himself to the world. In him announcing himself, he’s the one that changes things.

Bleeding Cool: You’re positing a cause and effect?

David Goyer: Yes, yes absolutely, in our mind.

Bleeding Cool: And so now, Bruce Wayne will feel alright in his ears, where he might not have dressed up like that before. Is that the kind of thinking?

David Goyer: Well, yes… there’s definitely… I don’t want to get too in depth. Obviously, Zack and I have had conversations… but there would be a cause and effect. And that would extend to the collateral damage that happened, and to what other countries feel about the fact Superman calls America his home. Man of Steel doesn’t exist in a vacuum.
