Sequels Superman 2-who do you want to direct?

[Showtime]

Unbreakable was really great movie based on superhero

Very underated movie. I love it.

 

[Octoberist]

I just didn't like the ending..with the bubbles and it felt abrupt.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I didn't have a problem with the ending, what should it have been? Did you wan't to see the cops take Mr. Glass away or something?

 

[That-Guy]

Yeah, I think that Unbreakable has to be the best superhero movie ever and it put the suppose realism of the X-Men movies and Batman Begins to shame.

You couldn't resist it, could you? Unbreakable's realistic feel "put the supposed realism of the X-Men movies and Batman Begins to shame" because it was SUPPOSED to be more realistic. Shayamalan was making a movie about a regular guy in the real world who finds out that superhero myth isn't just a work of fiction. Batman Begins and X-Men were placed in a real world type setting as well, but both film franchises were attempting to adhere to a separate world that exists in comic books. There is no Gotham City in the real world. In the real world, the Government is not having debates about what to do with mutants (well, maybe George W. Bush is). Nolan and Singer, while taking some liberties, were attempting to adapt largely unrealistic comic book stories and make them as real and relatable as possible while still staying true to the source material (although I'm sure that you didn't feel they did that). Shayamalan was creating an original, human phenomenon drama based on comic book and superhero mythology but was not actually confined to the guidelines of a typical movie based on a comic book. They're two completely different things and all three films, in my opinion (and many other people's as well) are all very well-made pictures.

Agreed. I didn't think Unbreakable was any more realistic than BB, just contextually different.

 

[That-Guy]

Yeah, in a way, it could be argues that BB was more realistic, simply because it didn't feature anyone with superhuman or supernatural abilities.

If Singer leaves, Donner, Jackson or Steven Spielberg should direct the sequels

I liked Steven's work in the past, but truly his recent work has all this libral propoganda/agenda and with his "happy" endings.

It's funny that you mention that. Most people applaud Spielberg for actually making statements with his work now and not just focusing on purely commercial ventures. Also, critics have lauded his edgier films and the fact that his "happy" endings are not just saccharine ways of tying up loose ends.

In any case, it would seem to me, that someone who is capable of "happy" endings would be perfect for making Superman.

 

[SuperDaniel]

Thats what i think too. It would be too good to be true to have Superman being directed by Spielberg.

I agree with your points about the differences between Batman Begins and Unbreakable. I do however think that Unbreakable is a nice take on superheroes and anybody involved in the making of a superhero movie should check it out.

i preffer a NEW -talented- unknow director.

I agree

 

[explode7]

Are u guys crazy? Speilberg only directs Alien movies and yes I know superman is an alien an all but still he has to be treated as a superhero above all else he will become tooo unrelatable. WOTW was good though.

SO T-rex is an alien monster brought back to life on earth?

 

[explode7]

^ Oh c'mon u know what I mean.

 

[BrollySupersj]

I do I'm just pulling your leg.

 

[explode7]

Ok cool.

Alien movies? Out of all of his movies, he's made 3 alien movies. If you're trying to be funny you need to try harder.

 

[SolidSnakeMGS]

I think Spielberg has moved on for good now, except with Indy 4 that will (NEVER) be made soon. I don't know if anyone has seen Munich. It's a brilliant film.

Oh, I agree wholeheartedly. In my opinion, it's the best of Shayamalan's films and the only people who don't like it or respect it are simply those who feel that comic books and superheroes are "stupid" and "for dorks only." But like it or not, comic books have a place in history and its great that Unbreakable attempts to expand upon that by offering up a greater reason for it. It certainly works as a superhero movie as well, and yes, it should be considered by directors who are attempting to make more realistic-style comic book films.

 

[Weadazoid]

I loved unbreakable it took realism..and comic lore to a whole new level.

But all that being said

I wouldn't want him any where near Superman it would be too strange IMO

I also would not want Cameron or Spielberg.

Peter Jackson would be interesting but I don't think he would do it


I think Singer will be back for a 2nd, I would not mind Ratner either.

Part of me thinks Ridley Scott production would be truly epic, Or if you wanted to recreate some of Supermans Villains you could go with Demme or Depalme.... that is if the movie is a shineing success and I think it will be.

Just imagiens Deplames take on a villain like parasite

Very well said, I share your sentiments.

So you would like a very mediocre director who lacks his own vision over a slew of directors that are not only infinitely better, but have their own style that could benefit Superman??
