How do you know when a 3D scene is coming up if you take the glasses off?

Bryan Singer has said that when Clark takes his glasses off, the audience should put theirs on!

Re: The Official "I Saw Superman Returns" Thread

I am seeing Superman tonight. Finally!

I am a HUGE Superman 1 and 2 fan so my expectations are low. I am still very excited about Returns though.


As for Pirates, I hated part 1. It was just too corny for me and really dragged....the forced comedy was not funny. I tried to watch it again but had to turn it off.

Hopefully part 2 will be better but I doubt it. I like most Depp movies too but oh well.

Re: The Official "I Saw Superman Returns" Thread

I've never been a Superman fan. He's one of my least favorite superheroes. My only reason for seeing this movie would be because of Bryan Singer, because I think he's a good director. Superman Returns will probably be a rental for me.

I'm too hyped for Pirates of the Caribbean 2 to bother seeing anything else right now, anyway. I have midnight show tickets and I'm counting down the days. Curse of the Black Pearl is one of my favorite movies of all time, if not my absolute favorite. It was a perfect adventure movie with a good story, great characters, and everything I could want in a film - action, romance, drama, mystery, the supernatural....

I thought the first POTC was a lot of fun when I watched it in the theater, but I haven't bothered to rewatch it since. I'll probably just catch the sequel on DVD.

As for Superman, I'm getting goosebumps now that it's just one day away. I've been waiting a long time to see Superman on the big screen again.

Walmart had I and II for 5.50 each so I bought em and watched both over the weekend. I haven't seen them in years so it was almost like watching them for the first time again. Really stoked about tomorrow! I'm heading over to the theatre as soon as I get out of work. I'm going by myself cause I can't wait the 2 days it would take to be able to see it with my wife and friends.

I'm the exact opposite. I saw POTC 1 at least 3 times in theater, bought the DVD and watched it like once a week for a couple of months Even my mother, who hates all movies except Star Wars, loves POTC - it's just too much fun! I can't WAIT to see Cap'n Jack back on the big screen. And the Kraken. And Davy Jones.

The only reason I'm going to Superman Returns on Wednesday is because we got free tickets from my crew friend. If it weren't for that, I'd probably wait a few weeks. The Superman films were never my favorite movies from childhood. Star Wars, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones - all WAY more entertaining and captivating for me (although Superman 1 is the first movie I actually REMEMBER seeing, when I was about 4 years old - I cried when his planet blew up with his parents on it ).

I'll let you know if seeing SR changes my mind or not

^ That sounds similar to me. I saw it 5 times in theaters in 2003, and my dvd has been very well played. My mom loves it, too. In fact, I'm taking her with me and a friend to the midnight showing. She's the one that suggested a midnight showing in the first place!

The reviews on Superman Returns seem mostly good so far, and if a bunch of people start raving about it to me then I'll check it out on dvd when it's released in the winter. I liked the original Superman movie all right, but I don't own it and haven't watched it in years.

Most of the reviews I've read have been positive so far. Some criticise Bosworth as a bad choice for Lois Lane and the film having hardly any action scenes. But regardless, I will see it.

I'm treating it as a reboot for the franchise...

Just happy he's finally back!

WOW, I just realized I'm only 3 posts from 1,000!

Re: The Official "I Saw Superman Returns" Thread

ok, i just got back from the theater and im really dissappointed in it. it could've been so much better. im sorry to say but bryan singer should've stayed with Xmen because i didnt like superman returns. i hope that if they do make some sequels that they improve them a LOT more over this movie. i dont want to go into specifics right now, but im sure ill get into it sometime tomorrow.
even some of the employees said they didnt like it when they watched it the other night during the test screening.

 

[Gruson]

Read the spoilers thread to see my thoughts.

It was just ok IMO.

Details in the other thread.

wow..... I'm scared now...

I've got tickets for tonight... Let's hope I like it.

Re: The Official "I Saw Superman Returns" Thread

johnny depp is great, and the first movie was a quality film, but i think 20 years from now, POTC will be an afterthought, and superman will still be going strong.

Would you say the same about Indiana Jones? I think not!

me neither... i cant wait until Dr. Jones finally makes his comeback. i might actually bust out my Jones complete outfit to wear.
