I just noticed the "shapes" on Snyder's Batmobile . OMG....

 

[chewblacca]

My wife wanted to watch the Man of Steel tonight on cable. Without me saying anything she noticed the dildo shaped pods, the stupidity of the tornado, at least 20 deaths all military, Lois Lane appearing everywhere, the fact that his only real save is Lois Lane, the excessive destruction, and the fact that The Daily planet and all the buildings surrounding it are rebuilt in no time at all after the entire neighborhood was obliterated. I just looked her and said, yeah.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

the fact that his only real save is Lois Lane.

You might need to watch it again

the excessive destruction

There was an alien invasion

and the fact that The Daily planet and all the buildings surrounding it are rebuilt in no time at all after the entire neighborhood was obliterated.

They didn't show the city in the last scene, it was blurry and the final shots focus on Clark, as he arrives to his new job. If you want to criticize the ending, don't go for the obvious...destruction cliche Criticize the fact the Clark got a job working at the daily planet without any experience in journalism...that we know of

Did she notice this too in Avengers and AoU? Cause its present there too.

 

[EVILFACE]

And like The Avengers, most of those were Superman's own mess to clean up. Well, actually Jor El's for sending his kid to Earth.

All I know is that in the last scenes, if you paid attention, outside the window there were buildings surrounding the planet building. And I never said Superman caused any deaths, just that there were quite a few deaths shown on screen mostly military. Manned planes blowing up, heads getting squished, necks being snapped by Faora, and a plane full of military men and a doctor being sucked into the phantom zone. Hey, a good death is its own reward right? And like someone else posted, during the fight between Supes and Zod, Zod hurls a tanker at Supes, and all he does is fly over it letting it explode into the building behind him, looks cool and he is here to help. Then he wants us to trust him so he crashes a multimillion dollars satellite right in front of a general. No intimidation there, we should trust this guy or he may destroy more stuff.

 

[chewblacca]

Yeah she noticed the destruction there too as well as their efforts to help get people away from the destruction. But Supes is only one guy, right. There's only so much he can do right? And it is his first day, and he is here to help and all that.

I think it says a lot that someone had to list all the good things a character like Superman did. It's a comic book movie. You can't take this stuff so seriously! Dark and gritty! It's Superman!

A list wouldn't be necessary if people didn't say things like this

the fact that his only real save is Lois Lane

 

[chewblacca]

The fact that this debate has been going on so long necessitates too. Superman is a guy in a funny red sheet created during the end of the depression to pick up people's spirits. Not to be so dark and gritty that some find to be depressing. But like all things our entertainment mimics our culture. Where's the hope in that?

They already tried the "classic" old school Superman when they made Superman Returns, and not only did the film failed to connect with audiences , it also failed financially. People didn't like that one either, so I can't blame WB for doing something "darker" and with more action.

I think there's a difference between doing a classic Superman, and doing a derivative Superman film with so many recycled story elements, minimal action, and a lame baby subplot. But. . .I also don't blame WB for trying something more X-TREME, even if it's not my cup o tea.

Superman Returns is far from old school. Show me a good Superman comic where his enemy is a rock?

His enemy was Lex Luthor.

Has there ever been a villain made of kryptonite? Like the Thing? I would root for that guy.

Superman doesn't even look like Superman, with his dorky looking baby face, ridiculous contact lenses, and worst costume ever. **** Brandon Routh and Singer. Two and half hours of Supercreep stalking Lois Lane by staring through walls and elevators, and floating around not being a good father. That movie is GARBAGE.
