So am I the only one that felt Superman warranted his own trilogy?

so, cause they both are the leaders of their respective groups, that makes them the same popularity wise?...lol ok, if you say so

wb is doing a MoS2, it's after jl....
well no, the point is hes down at the level of cap when he should be bigger than everyone. Is MOS2 officially announced yet?

so this is how this gonna go: i answer your questions and you gonna come with more questions, gotcha.....

i dont know the name of the actor that played him in supergirl, but he's shown up 2 or 3 times already...and they talk about him in relation to her as well....

and what media are you seeing related to iron man, cap, bats, etc. besides movies, random t-shirts, and other comic related shyt?....none....you making it seem like these other characters are everywhere, when they not...we hear about them when they in shyt, just like supe....except, you more than likely to see supe t-shirts and hear him referenced more than them....

you asked was MoS2 announced and it was....but now since they dont have a date, it doesnt count...lol aight man....

looked at that list...you know last month is only an indicator of last month.....the reason some of those books are high is cause marvel just restarted their comic universe....they are making changes to all the characters, making iron man the center of their universe, making new teams, etc. that's why there is interest in them.....you did know that right?....anyway, how about you look at sales for the year, decades, etc....that site does that too...in fact, i looked for you....last year, supe had a comic in the top 50....i know, top 50 is nothing, right? except when you factor in the amount of comics that come out in a year, events, etc., that's great...i mean, look at most of the books ahead of him: batman, wolvie, and spidey....all had major things going on: death for wolvie, no bruce for batman, and marvel pushing miles more than peter for spidey ......for him to have a top 50 book with nothing major going on with the character is great....but lets not stop there: in 2013, he had 2 in the top 5, 3 in the top 10, 7 in the top 50.....in 2012, he had 12 in the top 50....he has 13 books in the top 50 for the 2000s....he has 10 in the top 50 for 2010s so far....but he's not popular, lol ok.....
Yeah that's what a conversation is usually. Fell free to ask me questions. lol I don't watch Supergirl so the only way to find out if he was on there was to ask you. Don't be so defensive.
Uh toys. video games, book bags, lunch boxes.
I missed this announcement so that's why the date matters and it has no director or release date so it is tentative at best.
Believe what you want I'm just trying to tell you what's real.

what are you talking about?...by himself, he is bigger than almost every other comic character, including team ups...only bats and bat/sup together can make a claim to being bigger....and that's a toss up.....as for cap, he is made bigger when teamed with avengers, and even then he's not on supe level.....

as for jl: how is him being the leader a down thing?.....that makes no sense.....no matter the status of each individual character, they dont make them bigger than the team in those books....that's how team-ups work...they might get their own moment to shine, but he/she never have the full focus, it's about them team.....with that said, when shyt hits the fan, jl relays on him most of the time...and he is the 'leader'...so again: how does that bring him down?....

they announced MoS2 in their lineup....no, they didnt set a date...

you naming shyt from the 60's/70s...supe hasnt been that powerful since the silver age....in fact, every year they make him weaker and weaker....but what you said is an exact example of what i'm talking about people going out of their way to dislike him.....you dislike him cause he's 'too powerful', seriously?...lol ok....

question: do you feel the same way about batman?....i ask cause even though he doesnt have any super powers, he's taking out super powered villains cause of prep time...doesnt that make him too powerful too?...it should, but you dont hear people complain about that, wonder why....


I agree him having a gadget for everything does give you the "c'mon really son"? but you see him dig deep. you see him get his ass kicked more times than not.

lol i know how convos work....me saying that was more so that it seemed you werent happy with the answers i was giving cause i had answers or they rebutted what you said....anyway, that's whatever, just a misunderstanding....i have no questions to ask....

i'm not defensive

lol what?...there are plenty of superman related things that you named and more....he has a shytload of toys, his symbol is on book bags, lunch boxes, he's in video games, etc....to say he isnt is not being truthful....

you're right, there was no date announced nor a director...they only announced those for the jl movies....but they did announce the film, which is usually how it goes...you announce the movie is coming, then you pick a date, director, script, etc....marvel does it too.....marvel didnt announce a date and/or director for most of their movies at the time they announced them, but does that mean they not happening?....exactly...

yea, he gets his ass kicked, but you know he's gonna win cause he's the good guy....the same shyt goes for supe: he gets his ass kicked a lot for him to be so powerful, and yes, you know eventually he's gonna win.....so what's the difference between him and bats?...why do people hate supe, but love bats when they do the same shyt.....only difference, one of them has the powers to realistically fight back/win and not just pull something out his ass/belt to win.....

Marvel actually announce movies and the date they come out together. They wait later for director though you are right. MOS 2 has neither.

I'm saying that he's not as big as he was even during the Superman Cartoon era/Lois and Clark of the 1990s. There's a perception out there that he's boring. WB needs to do a better job of selling him. Remember Superman Returns.

you are not well informed....the article you posted was after they announced the dates....even in the article it says 'they are offering major updates, including the release dates to their highly anticipated upcoming projects'....now why would they need an update for release dates if they already released them?....exactly....we knew about the projects cause they announced them earlier in the year at their event, but not the dates....

Actually, they announce the dates first then tell you the movies. Watch the video of them announcing Phase 3.



You don't know what you're talking about.
