BvS All Things Superman and Batman: An Open Discussion - - Part 35

[NoLaNitE007]

we could always talk about this

But...but....this Superman movie was just so much better than the "atrocious" and "horrible" MOS wasn't it?

[Capt. Marvelous]

Another that has the exact same trolling style as you?

Hmmmm....

My supposed trolling is only a matter of perspective from your point of view.

On top of that, the CGI was poorly executed. There were times where you can clearly tell that it's a CGI double based on the differing, bordering on unrealistic actions between the model and the actor (ultrafluid versus human movements) and the inconsistent shades of colour.

That's why practical effects are so much better. They should have used the actor in a harness and greenscreen.

 

[Wooden Routh]

Uncanny valley in the purest form. That's what the faux-routh is....

Hmm... Maybe Cav-el actually has that Great Wall of China repairing vision? Metropolis should be cleaned up in no time.

 

[The Guard]

Let me get this straight.

People apparently have no issue imagining a crystal growing a continent laced with Kryptonite...

But are unable to suspend their disbelief that Superman, a fallible character, in his anger at Luthor's perversion of his heritage, his haste to end the threat, never having encountered such a thing before, might overlook that the island is partially composed of Kryptonite and assume it's just his Kryptonian technology at work?

or we could go with this award winner

It really depends on what you want to accomplish. CGI works as long as you have an attention for detail, which SR clearly lacked.

That sounds like something The Valeyard would say.

One of the problems with writing Superman is that people expect perfection from him and that he has so many powers that when he doesn't use them it makes him look stupid.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

It really depends. CGI works as long as you have an attention for detail, which SR clearly lacked.

And our boy Zed is all about the details.

 

[MrsKent26]

It's horrifying. Why would they CG his face in that scene?

[NoLaNitE007]

More like ashes at this point...

When this topic or thread is....Ashes....than you have permission to die....

I just read that from a fortune cookie.

To get Routh to emote.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

I really hope Zack walks around set with a scepter like that. Just cuz. t:

People not liking that Superman "might overlook" the one thing that WILL kill him is a "bad thing"? That he doesn't find it strange that the only person to EVER use Kryptonite against him is just standing around, seemingly unafraid of a super-powered alien staring him down?

The mind wobbles....

 

[ArmsHeldOut]

Speaking of banned noobs, whatever happened to the legendary Maluka?

He did just that in Superman II and didn't use kryptonite.

*SHUDDERS*

See Snyder, 'hope'. More of that please, particularly in the ending fly by scene.
We wanna leave hopeful.

 

[georgec]

Those CGI shots from SR are no match for the ones of the Scorpion King from The Mummy Returns.

Spoiler

Um, you're sa.... Hmm. I just..... Uh....

Wow.

 

[InJustice]

Wow.

He's being sarcastic.

 

[Brother Jack]

You wanna see some truly awful CGI watch the first Blade movie.

 

[Wooden Routh]

He's being sarcastic.

I believe it.

But what dumbfounds me is, there probably really are people with this train of thought....
