Re-watched superman: man of steel...GREAT MOVIE

[TheGodling]

These talking point make no sense

1. Of course his father wanted to keep his powers hidden as a kid, you do know if the fbi,cia found out about Clark at 13 they would of ripped him away from his parents an immediately turned him into weapon? So he wanted him to stay low key until he was a adult

2. How could he be inspirational if when this is a orgin story dude literally learned about his real parents, zod, his home world, an the full extent of his powers in the same week.

3.why do think he killed zod, to save that family, and he saved those soldiers from that girl more then a few times

Your clearly wrong here

1. That's like asking why the FBI and CIA wouldn't be able to track down Batman in like a week's time? There are no traffic cams or satellites? Nobody can track the route of the Batmobile driving up and down Wayne mansion property in the 21st century?

As Grant Morrison once said:
“Kids understand that real crabs don’t sing like the ones in The Little Mermaid. But you give an adult fiction, and the adult starts asking really fukking dumb questions like ‘How does Superman fly? How do those eyebeams work? Who pumps the Batmobile’s tires?’ It’s a fukking made-up story, you idiot! Nobody pumps the tires!”

2. I dunno, it could be you know, the very personality of his character? He could've already been going around helping people without the use of his powers, doing charity, whatever. It's not that hard to make a character a good person by nature until you decide to make it hard.

3. I'd post the clip again but the Smallville fight scene that so many people love literally starts with Clark taking Zod away from his mom in some farm fields in the middle of nowhere to the center of Smallville, so every bit of destruction in that fight is a result of Superman having no issue taking a fight into a populated area. Any attempt to show Superman actually saving people is buried underneath layers of him not giving a fukk, and that's the problem. Even if he can't save everyone, show that he wants to, that it hurts him that he can't. It's a very simple principle and one thing that a lot of superhero films get right without a hitch.

The whole movie he was saving people he went against his father saving that school bus full of kids

He stood up for the women in the bar after the guy slapped her on butt.

He saved those soldiers after they intentionally shot at him

He was torn between respecting an trusting his fathers reason vs. Doing the right thing while risking exposer

(In before the flurry of nerds complaining about Clark snapping Zod's neck like a real nikka)

The visuals the music... entire movie was so underrated...





Krypton had its chance!!!

"I WILL FIND HIM!!!"





Zod was completely bound and powerless at this moment, and yet he still managed to scare the shyt out of u

i wish DC wasn't so quick to kill off great villians

So then what was the big choice he made? He could have just kept going around helping people.

Johnathan wasn’t making a nuanced argument about being careful. He said do nothing. He wanted Clark to stay in Smallville and take over the farm.

You do realize that BB and MOS was both made by Christopher Nolan. And it didn't tried, it felt very much like BB and didn't feel like amazing spider-man at all.

I was talking about the film quality and are you really trying to say they aren’t similar.

-Both were reboots and told the origin story again after the original movie did it perfectly
-Both were trying to be Batman Begins with the tone
-Both films had that dull colorless look to them
-Their father figure deaths (Pa Kent and Uncle Ben) were dumb compared to the original films
-Both had villains that were connected to the heroes parents
-Both were polarizing with fans.

Another thing, MOS was all Snyder. They only put Nolan as a Producer to sell the movie

Superman has killed Zod before, in fact dozens of times. It's what inspired his 'No Kill' rule after infinite crisis.

Going to watch it again today

In this it was necessary for his character development. Do I let those people die for my principles or will I break them to save someone who doesn't deserve to die?

 

[klutch2381]

Trash.

 

[OmegaK2099]

Michael shannon also hardly gets mentioned when bringing up great super villain performances, his intensity and sheer anger came across perfectly. Viggo Mortensen was the original choice for Zod, I wonder what that would have been like.

MOS isn't a great movie.

It's a good movie, arguably the best modern DC movie outside of Nolan's stuff but it still has some glaring flaws.

My thing is, without turning it in a stan war...Marvel committed to fleshing out Thor and Cap to the point where their first films are after-thoughts because much like MOS, they were good with some glaring flaws (especially Thor). I really, really wanted Cavill's Super-man and the quality of MOS to have that same chance to level up in quality and he just didn't get it. That pisses me off.

DC fans go hard, still do for MOS, they would have given you time and support to get the character right, but they were so focused on trying to out-Marvel Marvel studios without wanting to put in the work of committing to a vision.

 

[YakSpiller]

Movie was garbage.

 

[TOAD99]

Just finished watching it again, great movie

you could feel how powerful Superman was each time he took flight

Zod was a great villain too he was really bout it

wish they could bring him back

we need a sequel

Edit: the fighting and action was top notch
