I thought this was obvious to anyone who's seen or read watchmen. Apparently not
People who don't understand the significance of Superman not killing!

He's always killed somebody though
And idk where this notion that people don't die in these movies comes from, maybe the comic books but people think nobody dies in the comic movies when all these buildings are collapsing, bombs going off, people getting kicked out of windows or whatever the fukk goes on.
Batman even killed Joker in the animated movie... Finally.
Not saying his first instinct is to kill but lets not act like he hasn't bodied people... Superman too
NobodyReally
Superstar
4 years later people still can't stop talking about this film
That's the hallmark of a....never mind.
People still talking about Gigi and Showgirls too
The real Watchmen "ripoff" by DC is IDENTITY CRISIS, but that's just the story. It works because the Watchmen basically is a Justice League. They even incorporated WATCHMEN into the 52 universes.
Man of Steel is just Superman except he doesn't have his goofy grin all the time, which wasn't a new thing.

There you go. Why is Zach exploring similar themes in 2 separate movies he directed? Out of ideas I guess.

So Zach is taking a riff off of Superman to make a riff off of Dr. Manhattan? What's next another riff off of Superman using Dr. Manhattan again?I wasn't even gonna State that yet I was waiting for him to actually compare them before hitting him with that obvious fact
They're mentioned in passing as films in lists of films that bombed.People still talking about Gigi and Showgirls too
People aren't having in depth discussions about the plot and characters.
You still haven't clarified how Mos superman is a direct rip off Dr. Manhattan.So Zach is taking a riff off of Superman to make a riff off of Dr. Manhattan? What's next another riff off of Superman using Dr. Manhattan again?
Smilies won't save you.

I think I did. Read the thread again.
So now you're jumping around because you Dont even have a point.
I guess iron man as a film was a waste of time and marvel is out of ideas since we all know where the formula for that film came from
Again. You don't know the difference between character and story.

Can't keep Marvel out your mouth. Discuss the topic please.
I guess iron man 2 and 3 were also wastes of time and marvel is all out of ideas since they explored the same themes as the first film even having the same type of villain across all 3
Just using your own flawed logic against you
Because no director or writer has ever explored similar themes across different films

So if you agree that's exactly what Zach is doing why the argument?I guess iron man 2 and 3 were also wastes of time and marvel is all out of ideas since they explored the same themes as the first film even having the same type of villain across all 3

You still haven't listed how mos superman is a direct rip off of dr.Manhattan as a character.
Either explain how,or shut the fukk up.
10 posts later you still won't say how.
