Re: Superman was solid 8/10.. Ironman 3 was better.. Superman is still a must see!!!!

You must be out of your fucking mind if you think Iron Man 3 is better than Man of Steel.....:smh::smh::smh::smh:
 
Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

I honestly liked this more than Avengers. Maybe because it was a serious take like the DK.
 
Re: Superman was solid 8/10.. Ironman 3 was better.. Superman is still a must see!!!!

Iron Man 3 wasn't better. Don't listen to him.
 
Re: Man of Steel was rubbish. Save your money

Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

So you wanted MORE romance in the movie between Superman & Lois, huh?
Sounds like you salty they did not focus on the 'relationship' aspect a little more. GTFOH.

NEWSFLASH: There are roughly 7 or 8 OTHER Superman movies... plus at least 3 Superman TV Series that 'explore the romantic relationship of the most famous superhero couple of all time'.

We off that. :hmm:
Shit is wild sappy. :hmm:

You acting like the movie is FULL of plot holes. IT was not.

Agreed, it's no Dark Knight... but just because some of us do not agree with your assessment, does not mean we are 'simple muhfukas'.

You outta yo cotdamn mind. :hmm:
What I wanted was for the relationship to make sense, which it didn't.
Tell you what - you go down the street, glance at a bitch a few times, have a few insignificant conversations and then kiss her. Let's see how that shit plays out.
The shit didn't make sense. I don't need no fuckin' romance, just for an angle to make sense. They spent about as much time on the fuckin' CAPE as they did with Lois and Clark. THEY went down that path. They just came up short. You sound like you on some fanboy shit. You liked the flick. I liked the flick. I just didn't think the shit was "awesome", so don't get mad at me because I'm not as easily amused by shit like this. It was fun for what it was. Kal-El kicked some shit and stepped up and became Superman. Aight. Cool. Whatever.
I still think This Is The End was more entertaining.
You spend $200k on a car, you expect it to go fast.
You spend $25k on a car, you're are much more impressed when it goes fast.
Man Of Steel was exactly what you'd expect it to be for the amount of time and money they spent on the project.

This movie, to me, represented the best of the original 1st 2 movies.. this shit was how you have a superhero/supervillain throwdown with shit actually being fucked up damage wise...

this really was what Superman Returns shouldve been IMO..
 
Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

Seeing as Superman is virtually invincible and could just win the affection of everyone by showing his heroism, his father was on some bullshit and basically worked against Superman becoming who he was instead of helping.

With characters that can be easily killed or hurt...it makes sense. With a near god like Superman, it's silly. However, I did say earlier in the thread, some of the flaws in this movie is a flaw with Superman as a character himself.

For example, Superman's invulnerability makes action scenes unsuspenseful.

No one knew just how powerful Superman would become so his father had every right to worry about him. Also the idea that he's so powerful everyone would love him is BS because as Supes himself said..they feared him cause they couldn't control him.

As for the fight scenes. Knowing how the final fight scene ended the idea of being invulnerable only factors in when you're stronger than the person you're fighting. Supes wasn't.
 
Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

Saw the 11:30am show, there were about 50 people there (who really came to see the movie so there was no talking)
Im not going to join the discussion about the cinematic merits (or lack thereof) of this film, but, I like comic book movies and I loved this one. Im a giant The Dark Knight movie fan and even after seeing one of those Everything wrong with the dark knight clips http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUohSqT-PZg or Dark Knight Honest Trailers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u843KNE-exo
I still think the movie was awesome as fuck! I feel the same about this, Im sure I can find inconsistencies but the kid in me can't get past the fact that I had a great time. Much respect to all posters. Need assist with the embed.

Just came back. Great fuckin' movie! I appreciated the lil science they dropped in it.

Damn good movie. Glad the producers/director approached the story the way they did. I don't think Superman's story and character allow for the depth of character development of an Iron Man or Batman.

I put this flick almost up there with Superman 2.

Go see it. Its worth it. It was a lot of fun. Had my theater clapping at the end.

Thank god people didn't clap at the 8:30 am showing. I saw a few people tempted to but they aborted mission after they saw no one would join them.

They finally made a movie where you actually felt like Kal-El was an outsider.
I liked the 18 wheeler scene. I was like "yep, gotta go" after that shit.

Yeah clapping at 8:30am is a little extra. I was at the noon showing today so it wasn't frowned upon.

There was one thing that kinda irked me about Zod. The one scene were Supes kicked his ass after pulling off his protective mask, forcing him to come in contact with Earth's environment - then move forward in the movie and he was all like "I've been training for years to control my senses" and he starts flying as well as or better than Clarke. I was like :hmm:
That was kinda bullshit but I guess they had to explain it away.
Also, his fighting skills against Zod were much better than his fighting skills against Faora. It could have been the psychology of him fighting a woman, I guess. Still, she was fuckin' his shit up but when he fought Zod, he was almost on par with him.
 
Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

If at all possible, skip the bootleg and see it at least in 2D, its definitely a big screen movie.

Superman ultimately becomes who he is supposed to be by being a super-hero. His father actively worked against him being who he should be. I don't find much redeemable about his father at all other than telling Superman not to be bad person, which any parent would.

As for the fight scenes. Knowing how the final fight scene ended the idea of being invulnerable only factors in when you're stronger than the person you're fighting. Supes wasn't.

Superman as a character in general is basically invulnerable to dying outside of Kryptonite (which is lame to watch) or fighting a much stronger foe.

Lets just end it here, don't want to spoil.

I was the only one in the theater who laughed when SM snapped Zod's neck.

Really liked the little shit like the heat vision ice tunnels and those floating robotic AI doohickeys. Don't really like the movie trend of greatly portrayed villains who die on film, I always want them to leave an opening for them to come back harder in a future movie.
 
Re: Man of Steel Was Fucking Awesome...GO SEE IT! No spoilers.

Have never seen action in a superhero movie like this. Remember the final battle in Avengers? Imagine that times 10. The final 45 minutes was fuckin non stop action. Train throwing, city destroying ACTION! And the movie had just enough story to keep my attention between the action scenes. Definite must see movie for comic geeks and action junkies.

I'm sorry. Man Of Steel is a MUST see for all of us super hero movie watchers, but I have to disagree with the statement, "...the action was better than the fight sequence in The Avengers...". In my opinion The Avenges was the best superhero movie of all time and the use of 3D was better. I just saw Man Of Steel in 3D Imax and trying to remember a good scene where the 3D was killer?? I still remember the sky opening up in The Avengers and the aliens coming to attack Earth in 3D. Again, Man of Steel is a MUST see & the best SUPERMAN movie of ALL TIME!

The thing with the sense worked for me because once Superman told him the secret his training allowed him to advance faster at it than Supes.

I do have an issue with Jor-El being as good a fighter as he was. If he was a scientist how the hell was he able to fight on the same level as General Zod....a dude born and bred just to be a warrior?
 
For the folks that saw the movie already what did the turn out look like?

Only about 20-30 people in the 8:30 am showing. Those were the people that wanted to beat the crowd and kids more than anything else. Only 2 kids in the theatre.

My homie said that he thought Zod was actually trying to do the right thing and that Superman was a traitor for not wanting to save his people, even if its at the expense of Earth's people.
I told him he was trippin,' but I understand his perspective.

Yeah, they stepped on their own logic with that one, considering that no births on Krypton were natural and that everyone genetically engineered to do what they do.
I guess with Supes having the DNA codes of all of his people within him, that would explain his varied skillset but it wouldn't explain his fluctuating fighting skills. I'mma lay off that. It didn't bother me that much. Not like teleporting Lois. :hmm:
