All Things Superman: An Open Discussion - - - - - Part 70

[FilmNerdJamie]

People can change their minds, I suppose, based on how good a movie is...

I know a lot of people weren't that big of a Batman fan, until The Dark Knight... and that makes sense...

Batman Begins was what did it.

Please add Hans Zimmers Man of Steel music to that!

Well here are all the scenes so far with the exception of Lois finding the fortress and a few other short clips that if I put them together would only make like 4 sec. extra.

I added the song "Elegy" from Lisa Gerrard & Patrick Cassidy

Here is how I think the movie will go down

So far with all the trailers ,tv spots and the behind the scenes videos we have seen almost 6 min and 30 sec of footage.

Yup, that's what I meant...

 

[BatmanFanboy]

Batman Begins was what did it.

For you maybe, lots of people who liked The Dark Knight never had seen Begins nor do they like it nearly as much as TDK

For most, it was Begins. That was the talked about film coming out of summer 2005. People couldn't wait to see them tackle the Joker.

For fans but not the general public, you had to have been a fan of the Bat to appreciate Begins. TDK was more for wide audiences

WHAAATTTT???? 25 min of preview footage that is insane. They should have just put the movie in Netflix jajaja

 

[BH/HHH]

I'd agree that the Dark Knight was definitely the more main stream and a lot of people didn't discover Begins until the DVD release or after TDK release. But Begins was a massively influential film just ask the people who did Casino Royale or Star Trek to name a few.

Or...Batman Begins relaunched the fallen franchise.

That's just silly.

now why do you think people went to see TDK? Because of Begins, the DVD sales are what launched TDK to begin with. The general public may have not watched it on the big screen, but they watched it on their TV and they liked it.

Yes, I know Kryptonite will exist.. but I am hoping they won't use it... to me, that's a cop-out.. too easy a solution, and too boring... seen it used too many times, each time, unexciting... shove a kryptonite into supe's face, and he's weaker than a baby... Just like an unlimited power superman would be uninteresting, a force that can kill him right off is also un-imaginative / uninteresting...

But it doesn't have to make him weaker than a baby.

Just take this fight scene for example:

The kryptonite weakens him, but he still fights back. It just adds an extra element of danger/the enemy having the upper hand, that makes it even more awesome when he overcomes it.

Yeah. When he's weakened it highlights his heroism more. Powers or no powers, he has a will and heart of good.

Bingo.

Totally. C'mon I'm proposing Superman against an army of Kryptonite-fueled robot mechs developed by Luthor. Bizarros and Anti-Superman army are very sorta out there in terms of trying to fit them into this very 'real-world' Snyder's created.

.

Im not sure why Robot army is more realistic than a Clone army.Besides we are already getting a Robot army in MOS no need to rehash.By the way kudos the the team for keeping the robots under wraps.

And I despise Kryptonite-If I had my way it wld be erased from superman lore

H
For JL I'm saying they should wage war but have it in space or on another planet, something new and visually interesting, instead of the big city fight finale.

This was exactly what i want.My idea for a JL movie is to have Superman gather the team to rescue thousands of abducted humans from an Alien Planet.

Yeah I know. I expect to hear alot of folks claiming how they have always been superman fans, etc etc blah blah, after MoS hits.

Those guys are gonna piss me off.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a new banner using the one on the left (since we can spot a ray of light on it).

I think he is talking about Bling Ring right? but 10/10 is always great. Holding out for reviews in one week. Then I will truly be pumped for 10/10. Strict embargo lifts in June, but does anyone know when? Alex B. (from firstshowing) just keeps saying strict embargo tell June, but that is obvious, When dang it, when!
