"What the hay, dude?" might be my favourite quote of the film. It's so Superman, and when I heard it, I was like...yup, Gunn and Corenswet get it. Saw this twice now. Gonna go again. My favourite comic book film in a long time. Dang, it feels good to have a great Superman film.

If only. Went through this with The Batman to a lesser degree, with Indiana Jones 5, several video games and shows. :melt:

I'm seeing this again tomorrow with a friend; cannot wait! It's really a bummer that this film has different crowds of people both angered that it exists and actively rooting for its failure, to the point that they'll lie about the film in hopes to do it. I'm so fatigued of everything being...

I think Gunn has always enjoyed being a bit prickly and maybe a bit edgy in his 'hot takes'. I like the guy, but I see that as a symptom of him being a 'terminally online' type. I would personally like him to understand that there's room for a lot of differences in this character's...

So, I think this might be my favourite comic book film in a long, long time. I had some teary-eyed moments, in this film. Seeing Clark in his room with Ma and Pa Kent by his side - seeing the love of the three of them and the humble humility of Clark/Superman done justice so well, it felt so...

Just saw it. This film IS Superman. End of story.

I never doubted Gunn. From 2005-2012 it was 'In Nolan We Trust'. Now, I put my trust in Gunn.

I'm really shocked it's almost here. Feels so recent that I sat in my office and watched the first trailer in December. It felt like such a small glimpse. Now I feel like I've seen too much! :astonish:

And if only Heath had survived, his presence could've saved the critically acclaimed, audience and fan loved third film in the series from being totally panned as one of the worst Batman films of all time in The Dark Knight Rises.

Unfortunately, we live in a time where politics and issues such as a crisis of gender/masculinity have consumed the discourse surrounding film, games and other media. The campaign and first term of Donald Trump was shaped - literally - by GamerGate (look it up). And in this insane...

I am not a collector, by any means. I do have some figures though. That said, I do have Mafex's HUSH Superman. He wasn't cheap, around $120, I think. He's great, but. Personally, I much prefer the McFarlane Superman you showed here. It is my ideal, definitive Superman. Only recently did I...

It amazes me that - to this day - there are huge swathes of people who believe that Nolan had planned a third film with Joker as the villain again, and it had to all be thrown out due to Ledger's death. No way that they'd reuse the villain twice and Nolan is not one to write a sequel before the...

All of us:

I have the McFarlane figure with the wired cloth cape - it's a great figure and I'm very happy with it. I've also pre-ordered the new Superman figure made by FondJoy. Looks amazing, comparable to what SH makes, and for the price of McFarlane. I'd encourage you to give it a look.

Something hit me when I watched it recently that adds yet another huge piece of evidence that Bruce continued as Batman for some time after The Dark Knight. During his conversation with Fox, Fox jokes that their conversations usually would end with an unusual request (for something Batman...
