I'd like to say that while this thread may not have been necessary, it's refreshing to see a new thread that doesn't say "From what I've seen, this movie will suck" or "From what I've seen, I'm not really impressed," etc. True, I have my concerns about the film, but I'm more than willing to be optimistic and everything I've seen has looked really good, IMO.

Another thing I'd like to note... for all the people complaining that he's too young... actors very rarely portray characters who are their exact same age. Most of the "teenagers" you see on TV or in movies are actually closer to if not in their 30's. However, it can easily go the other way as well... younger actors often portray older characters. Now, this is always within limits (a guy in his early 20's should never play a character in his early 60's unless you have a really, REALLY good make up artist) but Routh looks like he could be anywhere from 22 to 35. As does Bosworth (at least with the look they've given her in the film). And the advantage is, that way, if the movie is good, we're sure to see actors returning for sequels for a long time because they won't get too old for the part too fast.

i agree with you on the too young part. you can't please everyone. these people who wanted some1 older/look older would probably complain that he looks too old by the time they make the 2nd or 3rd one.

Oh, the irony.

Let me see if this is what he is saying: "In my opinion this movie will rule, and so I am starting a shiney new thread to proclaim it! But if you don't feel the same way, you need to shut-up because only my opinion deserves to be heard!". At least the other people are giving reasons why they feel the way they do, and trying to start a discussion.

This thread fails at every level.

Isn't it strange? When someone makes a thread with his doubts about SR, we all begin to say "Close thread".

But in this thread we all are happy.

Isn't it a bit strange for you all?

Even more irony:

You posted in this "pointless" thread without contributing anything.

Ah, the circle of life...

No, it's not strange at all.

For the most part, the 'Hype is a "fan-site", it isn't strange to me at all that people get razzed for starting a thread here putting the movie down, because most people are here to discuss their excitement for this movie.

I'm not saying what's right or wrong, but it's definitely not strange.

Yes, you're "Agree 100% thumbs-up" contributed so very, very much to this thread.

I'm also not the one coming into a thread to b**ch about it. You're the one with the problem, not me.

How about this-

The special effects look fantastic.

Eat it

What a mature, well thought-out reply. You definitely show your age in your posts.

Anyway, I apologize for this little detour. Continue on with your "Only opinions like mine are allowed"-fest.

Seriously dude, do you even know what you're saying? Are you just trying to stir sh** up? Have you been reading any of the previous posts at all?

I fail to grasp your problem, or the conlusions you're drawing....wow...

My final post in this topic, promise.

Did you even read the first post? I think you did and it was A-Ok with you.

Here's the problem, see if you can comprehend what is wrong with it:

Shut up for gods sake, enjoy what we have I say, A Superman movie that really looks the part and in MY OPINION will own the summer!

People are ALLOWED to not like the film. They should be able to post without being told to "shut up" or that they are a "hater". I can tell by your posts, that this type of thinking is not your speciality.

Again, carry-on.

Box office alone?!?!?!


HOLY F**K!!!!

Much as I'd like to see SR do it, I really can't see it.

But 400 mil sounds do-able (like Spidey money), long as it's good.

Ugh...again with the personal attacks, and I'm the one showing my age...

Why should it matter to you what one person says in their thread? Are you not able to rise above it? Don't you have something better to do with your time than insult people who start threads that you don't agree with?

You're guilty of exactly the same thing you came in here b**ching about.

And personally, I don't think you've taken the time to see how I post, based on your opinions of me.

One thing you're right on though is that it's gone too long. Feel free to PM me if you need to discuss anything further.
