This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]462495[/split]
Here's a query for you:
What personality imperfection does Lois Lane in MoS have?
Answer:
none.
That's how shallow the writing was.
Recent Pic of Amy.
I see I'm late to this since the previous thread was closed. But it's worth saying.
I don't know how many times this has been stated. This is not the Smallville forums. There's a total section dedicated to that. Please don't spam and fill this thread or others in this section with paragraphs and posts about the show and its stars.
There's a gulf between going completely off-topic and legitimate comparative studies. If we can discuss Keaton, Kilmer, and Bale in the Affleck thread, and if we can discuss Reeve, Routh, Cain, and Welling in the Cavill thread, why should we not be allowed to discuss Durance, Bosworth, Kidder, and Hatcher in the Amy Adams thread?
Yeah, this thread kinda sucks now, lol.
All I can do is post recent, amazing, pics of Amy, lol.

Though I'm ready to hear the onslaught of complaints from people that will fret about how her hair is still not the right color.lol
I don't think many people are actually bothered by Amy Adams' hair colour, it's just a strawman brought up.Really? Even though Noel Neill's hair was reddish color and Lois' hair has been reddish in the comics before? Yeesh.
All right, fine, I'll try and make the comparison points more obviously relevant in each individual post, rather than letting it emerge from the general flow of conversation.Yes there is. And when there are essay long posts discussing Smallville one after another with no actual comparisons, it's called going off topic.
If doing comparisons, fine. But going into long discussions about the show in the Superman/Batman film? That's an issue. This forum has a history of casting bashing and Smallville/Superman film bashing that's lead to flame wars and we don't want to revisit that territory at all.
lol !Hey,I still think she'd look like the perfect Lois with black hair,but that's just me...
So those who love every incarnation of Lois are allowed to express that but those who don't have to keep silent? That is bias to one view point as opposed to another. If u like every version of Lois that is your right to do so and express it; but people need to stop getting all up in arms and defensive against those who have problems with past or present Lois Lane's. as DA said, whenever Henry is talked about Christopher, Dean, and Tom are usually going to be brought up. Same in the Ben Affleck thread; what is the point of trying to subvert the same actions being taken in the Lois Lane thread? Are we going to have to split the threads up? "Amy Adams as Lois Lane (only positive thoughts)" "Amy Adams as Lois Lane (all thoughts welcomed)"
I agree.I am not a fan of David Goyer and I believe the script was the weakest link with the film. (NOT The actress. I continue to shake my head all of you "Experts" who think that Amy Adams doesn't have the "skill set" for Lois Lane. Give me a break. If I rolled my eyes any harder they'd be in the back of my skull.)
But I think it's fairly clear she had some flaws.
Like every other version of Lois Lane, she walked into danger without thinking twice about it. She was brave to a fault. Following Clark deep into the mountain was a fairly stupid thing to do. But she's too curious and her curiosity got the best of her.
Letting a flash bulb off once she got into the cavern was also an impulsive thing to do but again, her ambition drove her and not common sense.
Following Clark across the world because she just could NOT LET IT GO is also a fairly standard Lois LAne personality tic. It's a tic that CAN bring good but can also get her into trouble. She was LUCKY that Clark turned out to be the guardian angel he was. What if he wasn't a good guy? She would have been in serious trouble? Again, her inability to let things go could have blown up in her face.
Volunteering to go on the ship? Again, it's her bravery making her put herself at risk to a fault.
Another flaw....cockiness. She thought she was going to be able to outrun the FBI. Who thinks they can outrun the FBI? Lois Lane. It's a character flaw. She's confidant to a fault.
Lois' bravery is a commendable, amazing thing. It's an iconic trait. She's fearless. But her ambition and impulsivity can also be flaws. That was clear as day to me in the film.
The writing in the film was not what it should have been but to imply that Lois had no flaws or personality tics that showed weakness is simply NOT true.
