You Want Superman Revamp? [Also the Man of Steel (2013) thread]

xp: oh right, combination videogame trailer/Bowflex testimonial

i kinda wish the need to do the whole backstory deal wasn't a prerequisite for getting these things made. of all the super heroes, do we really need an hour's worth of SUPERMAN: WHEREFROM DID HE COME FROM AND WHAT DOES HE DO?

You are John Byrne and I claim my $5.

uh the same John Byrne that did one six-issue miniseries, then a four-issue miniseries, then another four-issue miniseries, then a fourth, four-issue miniseries, all about WHEREFROM DID HE COME FROM AND WHAT DOES HE DO?, in two years?

And of course:

Xp yes and then got a little butthurt over "Superman:Birthright" iirc.

i've been called a lot of things on this board but john byrne might be the worst

300 and Watchmen were terrible, but they didn't prepare me for Sucker Punch, which was literally one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Dude is THE WORST.

oh god, i am so sick of superhero movies for adults, i guess TDKR finally pushed it over the edge for me, but this shit has got to stop it just has got to stop

Sucker Punch was totally terrible, but also hilarious in its ineptitude

I loved that they never once showed her dancing, because she was manifestly terrible at it given her inability to sway in tempo

christopher nolan presents a film by zack snyder is just the worst thing i could ever imagine seeing at the front of a movie, you people who are all like "hmmm! could be neat!" are fucking crazy

I'm just going to keep bringing up Uwe Boll

shouldn't have swallowed so much

slocki i agree with you but i will still see this because emotionally i am 10 year olds

oh i'll see the fucking thing

sigh

we are what we are, man

*kicks dirt, storms off*

you guys are such gluttons for punishment. never fails to amaze me.

man what else am i gonna do with two hours? work? make a child i can't take care of? mow the lawn? lament all of the life choices that led to me to watching yet another shitty super hero movie?

I knew there was a DVD version of Year One (ugh) but they've done Dark Knight too? Does it keep the other (non-Gotham) DC characters in?

i am pretty sure slocki meant the dark knight rises

but they DID do an animated dark knight returns

i assume he means dark knight rises

im not convinced that this is 'for adults' it looks like its about superman holding hands and being nice to his mom and playing in cornfields

its dark and he has a beard iirc

I'm going to assume this mass of people are not from this generation, complaining about "too much CGI." CGI is the present/future of movies, and we're going to keep seeing more and more of it. CGI looks great and enables the creation of amazing worlds like the one seen in 'Avatar'. Is it just me or are these people crying about CGI just plain out of their minds? If the CGI in any way puts you off seeing this movie after watching this incredible trailer, you clearly aren't entirely sane.

smh. hey, i'll ride all day for the first two rush hours and even money talks. but snyder's got a way higher ceiling and i think he can do something good when he's not working from his own wretched vision

phantasm owns

some days i would say it's the best of all batman movies

'his own wretched vision' made me lol

shit seriously chokes me up every time
