OK, i wouldnt go as far to say that superman returns was BAD, because it wasnt a bad movie, but just not quite what it could have been. i feel the same way about batman begins in certain areas, especially where dialogue and action is concerned. so in those respects, i think SR did better. however i still vote for a sequel to be done, i mean, how could they NOT make a sequel now that they've rebooted the franchise? but i do have to admit, it was kind of boring at times. but i think singer was trying to just make a good movie, not be like "what will the fanboys want, more action? hah, i just want to make a GOOD movie, not just an action movie". in some ways, that is good, in others, bad. like, i remember singer putting SR as " a love story with an action backdrop". ok, i dont think it was a very good idea to just focus on the love story or the kid thing, he should have focused more on the actual plot and luthots evil scheme. the evil scheme felt like a secondary element of the story, not the main one.
ok, rant over. in the end, i choose Batman Returns because the acting was incredible, some of the scenes actually break youir heart (a feat rarley done well in comic book films) the villians were NASSSTY, batman was kickass, visually stunning, very inventive and creative, had characters you actually cared about, and still had the batman look.
