That's a shame, was really hoping for this dude to return.

Best Lex.

Maybe Lex is the kid that sees Clark rescuing the bus? :O

 

[dmshaposv]

I hope to god they dont have any "oh its laced with kryptonite, I'm becoming a blundering heap of a man, cuz of a green crystal" shit and employ more creative ways of using Kryptonite.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

You know that if Snyder tried to pull this shit:

... we'd pillory him for being übercheeze.

I still don't know what Singer was smoking when he thought this was cool.

Yea, I don't want to see none of that either.

 

[kunonabi]

I really don't like the tone they're going for here. It looks bleak and grim, trying so hard to be more "realistic", but this is fucking Superman. I feel this is part of what really made Superman Returns suffer too - trying too hard to try and make sense of how Superman could fit into the world today. I don't think they need to do that. Just make a big fun colorful movie about an invincible alien who comes to Earth, grows up, and does things we cannot do, making the world a safer place.

Pretty much my stance as well. I've accepted the fact that Captain America is the closest to what I want out of a Superman film.

 

[MisterHero]

It's probably Pete Ross

Until Snyder tops the airplane sequence in SR, all tarring and feathering of Singer must cease.

 

[G-Fex]

Never.

 

[ReiGun]

Well, if you're like me and consider Zod bitchslapping Supes in the face a form of Kryptonite, then they already have.

 

[Eidan]

I still don't know what Singer was smoking when he thought this was cool.

Wanted to lay to rest the age old question of whether Superman's eyes were also bullet proof.

Next up, we'll test the strength of Superman's super turds.

 

[jett]

Superman at his most badass

Oh, jett. I fear for your soul when this movie fails you.

Just liek yours did, when GL bomba'd?

My work has been done for me.

 

[Eidan]

Until Snyder tops the airplane sequence in SR, all tarring and feathering of Singer must cease.

The fact that Superman looks like he'll actually fight someone in this movie means that the airplane scene has already been topped.

 

[Anticitizen One]

I don't want Lex in the next movie either unless its just a small role. I want Braniac, Mr.Myzyplick, Doomsday, Maxima, Mongul, Darkseid, Metallo,Parasite, Satanus, and Hank Henshaw.

 

[Socreges]

Looks very good.

But yeah, I'm a little bit concerned about the tone. Seems to take itself a bit too seriously. We'll see.

Michael Shannon is gonna kill it, though, I know. Really looking forward to him as the villain.

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

I am hyped now ! can't wait !

 

[strafer]

Until Snyder tops the airplane sequence in SR, all tarring and feathering of Singer must cease.

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

I still don't know what Singer was smoking when he thought this was cool.

that and the plane scene were the best things in that movie

 

[Reiko]

I still don't know what Singer was smoking when he thought this was cool.

The best part? The dude that shot him could see the bullet drop to the ground in real time.

 

[Eidan]

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

Being the only action scene in the movie has elevated it to undeserved heights.

 

[Anticitizen One]

High Five!

 

[G-Fex]

I don't know if I'll ever live down that green lantern shit...

 

[krypt0nian]

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

It's the part people remember because they were sleeping for the rest of the film.

The fact that Superman looks like he'll actually fight someone in this movie means that the airplane scene has already been topped.

Point set match.

 

[Darth Pinche]

One amazing scene does not balance out the hours of moping and stalking that he inflicted upon us.

 

[jett]

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

Absolutely nothing.

 

[Emwitus]

Pretty much my stance as well. I've accepted the fact that Captain America is the closest to what I want out of a Superman film.

Holy shit NO! no no no!

That stupid movie that had fight scene montages? Yeah NO!

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Maybe Solo has been watching the wrong trailer

 

[G-Fex]

I remember a collective mixed reactions from the reveal of the son throwing the piano in the theater.

Laughs

Groans

more laughs.


And honestly, that fucking plane sequence isn't that great it's really not.

 

[Kinyou]

It's probably Pete Ross

You're probably right

I still don't know what Singer was smoking when he thought this was cool.

I kind of like it. It's absolutely ridiculous but so is the whole premise of superman.

 

[DieH@rd]

Can someone gif closeup of Zod in his powersuit [clash between him and superman in the sky]?

 

[jett]

The best part? The dude that shot him could see the bullet drop to the ground in real time.

:lol Hadn't thought of that. That movie really is indefensible.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

Superman finally did something.

 

[Solo]

Just liek yours did, when GL bomba'd?

Ha! Trick question - I have no soul!

 

[dmshaposv]

Look, I like Returns a lot but what's so special about that sequence?

To be honest GAF people overate it.

Its very well shot and executed, but lacks any real sense of tension because you aren't invested in the characters that earlier on.

Would've been better for a climax. As it stands, a technically well done action set peice but quite hollow in the context of the movie.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Ha! Trick question - I have no soul!

:lol

 

[shadyspace]

Superman at his most badass





My work has been done for me.

Does he have hair on his chest

 

[Solo]

I'm not going to get into a discussion over the merits of a good action sequence with a bunch of Christopher Nolan action sequence fans.

The airplane sequence was wonderfully shot, scored and edited.

 

[godofcookery]

Man of Steel Magnolias. :\

 

[Wilbur]

I'm not going to get into a discussion over the merits of a good action sequence with a bunch of Christopher Nolan action sequence fans.

:lol well played

I can't remember anything from Returns apart from Spacey hamming it up.

 

[anotherVegan]

Hopefully Supes punches the heck out of everything. EVERYTHING.

 

[Eidan]

Seeing Christopher Reeves fight General Zod and his lackeys on cables was more exciting.

Solo: My alternate niche movie has a better action scene than big-name director movie.

GAF: STOP trying to be contrarian. It really wasn't that better.

Solo: what would you know, you crass nolanite! Your preception of cinema begins with memento and ends with TDKR!

 

[strafer]

So she was in Smallville.

 

[Blader]

The airplane sequence was wonderfully shot, scored and edited.

And meaningless.

how is that an action sequence? It's just a saving of a plane in the most delayed way, he just wanted a excuse to use a huge amount of CGI.

essentially just ripping off a sequence from a episode of Superman TAS.

 

[shintoki]

I like this new Superman. Shame he puts on clothes.

 

[Solo]

Niche movie? C'mon, dm!

For the record, SR stinks. But that sequence is fantastic.

Speaking of which, I just want to see a live action Superman to at least attempt an action sequence like Superman vs. Captain Marvel in JLU.

and all the x-men action scenes sucked!

But Nolan didn't direct this. And this looks like it has some good action sequences.
Plane sequence is Returns was not that impressive .

Next thing you know, you'll start to believe Skyfall had the best action scenes of the year.

Spoiler

The Raid did action best.
