SUPERMAN by James Gunn (OUT now)

[Hopeofmypeople]

I'm not sure if I trust this "scoop" from this random site.

Anyway, if true, James Gunn has a formula. It's not for everyone, of course, but most of his superhero films have been widely liked. So

The consolation prize is that no matter what it can never be as bad as what Snyder was spewing.

Movie industry and movie theaters need this to do well. I hope it’s good if it flops it’s bad for everyone. Unless you’re an internet troll.

"I've heard of people being turned off by the inherent humor, and silliness, that comes with a James Gunn movie — which Superman seems to have in spades."

"but it’s a divisive film with a particularly silly tone. Some people click with it, some seem to bounce right off"

That the gunn parody styled choice.

nikkas thought Gunn wasn't gonna Gunn

Soon as you seen Krypto, you knew what this was... Hope the fight scenes are on par. Looks like a mid afternoon viewing

Right. People defended Krypto being so prominently placed by saying "It's a part of the Superman mythos!"

But we all knew a writer has damn near 100 years of other Superman material to pick from. And Gunn picked this particular stuff because he has no other setting except "animals, weird creatures, big ensembles and over-the-top silliness."

I'd love to be proven wrong tho. In the end, I want to see a good movie.

So Richtman's tweet says "people loved it" but in that fugazi article they quoted Richtman as saying reactions were "mixed" What are we doing here?

If it ain't from Variety or Hollywood Reporter it likely ain't real...

Exactly.

Also, why don't people WAIT FOR THE MOVIE TO COME OUT before forming an opinion? That should be common sense lol.

That’s actually not what the article did

So far, based on what’s leaked, we've had the usual “scoopers” weighing on the reactions. MyTimeToShineHello says the reactions were “decidedly mixed.” According to “insider” Daniel Richtman, people he spoke to “loved it.”

Yesterday, scooper ViewerAnon shared, "The response I heard directly from Warner Bros was decidedly less glowing than Daniel [Richtman]'s post. Not to say it went terribly, but it’s a divisive film with a particularly silly tone. Some people click with it, some seem to bounce right off."

It’s quoting multiple people and different sources.

The consolation prize is that no matter what it can never be as bad as what Snyder was spewing.

Man of steel is a really really good movie. You can hate on everything Snyder did afterwards, but let’s not front on that one.
