James Gunn does not understand Superman. You don't need to give an explanation for why people can't recognize Clark Kent is Superman, it's not real life it's a fantasy story for kids.

>>212131925 (OP)
That technically makes Superman a villain. He's basically brainwashing innocent people to keep his identity secret.

>>212131925 (OP)
As long as Clark looks like an average white guy, with no fancy haircut or identifying marks, his disguise works.

How is it beyond the realm of believability that Bruce or Alfred does occasional routine maintenance on the batmobile like maintaining tire pressure or changing the oill?

It depends on the tone, dipshit. Asking little questions can reveal more interesting things about the characters and world. You know that actors often make up entire backstories for their characters that never get referenced in the movies, just so they can better get into the role?

>>212131925 (OP)
Chris Reeve was able to make a visible distinction between Clark and Superman. Obviously not enough to fool the viewer, but enough to make them believe that it could fool someone that wasn't looking for it. Gunn is a fucking hack.

These glasses are sure to disguise this brick wall of a man as a weedy little reporter.

Don't remember that ability he used to turn back time by spinning the earth backwards? Kissing someone to erase their memories? How about the comic where he shot mini versions of himself? Being farcical and weird was very common in the comics as well as some of the old Superman films. Hypno glasses seems tame by comparison.

>>212131925 (OP)
>obviously fake news
Snyderfags are getting scared.

>>212131925 (OP)
James Gunn is the same kind of dickless writer that Adi Shankar and Warren Ellis are. Deeply insecure and desperate to prove that they are too smart for these stupid cartoons by coming up with a far more contrived reason for everything to be the way it is. Everything needs a clever, subversive explanation and a witty little twist from the easily accepted version of things people already know. And it always fucking sucks, even if it is a callback to something else.

>>212133492
Hypnoglasses does create the possibility of a shitty scene where Superman gets "unmasked" by Luthor comedically removing his glasses.

>>212133526

https://youtu.be/WsvWDzpH0U4

It was pretty easy to tell that Gunn isn't willing to just suspend disbelief when it comes to Superman's disguise based on the fact that the movie starts with Lois already knowing who he is. Snyder did the same thing because they can't buy it that she would be fooled. They should just do what the comic does and have Lois sometimes be suspicious of Clark but he uses a robot duplicate to gaslight her.

Harold Allnut.
I hate known more trivia about stupid comics than the actual people known for writing it.

I have a friend who looks just like Conan o'Brien. People sometimes joke about it. But I don't think he actually is Conan o'Brien in disguise, I just think that he looks like him. He has a different accent and personality and a normal job and life and isn't a big celebrity

It's the same with Superman. Sure Clark Kent looks like Superman, but it's not like Superman is going around in a mask with everyone trying to figure out who he is. Superman is the big flying superhero guy and Clark Kent is the nerdy reporter who looks like him which is a funny coincidence.

>>212131925 (OP)
Superman will make a billion dollars.

Why so serious?

>>212133958
Huh... i finally understand what weird photo with Henry and Amy. Why was Snyder so crazy about this show?

There's been a lot of explanations for Clark's disguise over the years, in some of them Superman has low level hypnosis powers, in others he has fine motor control and can actually change his facial features enough to throw people off.

>>212134025
The original show is also why Lois was a redhead in MoS.

It's lame that in this movie Lois already knows, they should have saved that for the second film.

>>212134185
>>212134226
You can not like it but trying to claim this is King's fault for writing bad comics currently, or Gunn for being a modern cynic or that they must not know DC characters is telling on yourself

>>212134025
Don't know, but the first season of the 1950s TV series was aimed at adults, so the early episodes are often pretty grim. Lots of violence, and bad guys throwing wheelchair-bound old ladies down stairs, et cetera.

>>212134324
It is King's fault for bringing it back and treating it like a clever solution, because one of the shitty old comics had the idea first.

>>212132787
>It's a concept from 1978

I don't care about the glasses thing but Byrne's Superman is pretty boring, and besides chucking in Krypto and the Fortress this movie basically has a Byrne type story. This movie would have been an automatic 5 stars if instead of this "Justice Gang" of unrelated characters they used the Legion of Superheroes.

>>212134452
Byrne is the bronze age and Krypto has been back since 2001.

>>212132915
UMM ACKSHUALLY

>>212134589
The Bronze Age is pre-Crisis, Byrne was immediately post-Crisis.

>>212134589
Byrne is the Dark Age, you dumb faggot. Bronze Age was 70s.

Even without eyeglasses I wonder how many people recognized that Lois Lane was secretly the Panther Girl of the Congo?

>>212134671
>>212134681
The Crisis did not have anything to do with the direction of the industry. Opinions vary between the cutoff being Dark Knight Returns (after Byrne), Watchmen (after Byrne) or Image in the 90s.

Superman was never meant to be silly. He's a hero and the Champion of the Oppressed, not a retarded manbaby in a suit.

>>212134772
Either way you're wrong, you dumb faggot. Bronze age started with Jack Birby on the Superman comics. That's when Darkseid was introduced and DC comics started to become more serious. It's where you get Dennis O'Neil on Green Arrow and Batman, and so on.

>>212134831
I never said anything about when it started, take your meds.

Let's quote some Wikipedia here:
>The Bronze Age of Comic Books is an informal name for a period in the history of American superhero comic books, usually said to run from 1970 to 1985.
>The Modern Age of Comic Books is a period in the history of American superhero comic books which began in 1985 and continues through the present day
And Byrne's run started in 1986. But some moron on /tv/ knows better, I guess.

>>212134861
But /tv/ told me it was after the Crisis (86) and it was followed by the Dark Age?

>>212131925 (OP)
His appearance changes every couple of movies. When people start to recognize him, he turns into a new guy

>>212134861

>>212134826
I don't need that shit to keep track of which comics I've read and which I haven't. Just like I don't need an IMDb account to keep track of which movies and TV shows I've watched.

>>212131925 (OP)
>I don’t have that much suspension of disbelief
He’s a white guy with dark hair & a clean shave. That could be millions of people

Weird because face research has confirmed that glasses, like Superman wears as Clark Kent, are sufficient to disrupt identity recognition, at least in unfamiliar faces.
Like this research cites Superman's glasses as inspiration.
How weirdly unnecessary for Gunn to add.

>>212133414

I wouldn't call elements introduced before your parents were born "an addition"

>>212134881
>But /tv/ told me it was after the Crisis (86)
1985, not 86. Last issue of COIE was released on December 19, 1985.
>and it was followed by the Dark Age?
Again, Wikipedia, "Modern Age of Comic Books":
>An alternative name for this period is the Dark Age of Comic Books, due to the popularity and artistic influence of titles with serious content, such as Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen.
These names are just interchangeable.

>>212132752
'Nobody pumps the tires' in the sense that anything you wouldn't bother taking the effort to show in a panel may as well not exist, because it's not important. A comic book has what, 24 pages? You need to trim stories considerably to get them into those pages, and having a panel of Batman waiting on Alfred to pump the tires isn't making the cut.

Of course if you think about it, sure someone has to pump the tires, just like someone has to change the bulb in the bat signal and someone has to pick up the garbage at Wayne Manor and a billion other things.

But if you're thinking about that as a script writer then you're not thinking about what you should be thinking about. How the hell do you get the studio to approve a 10 minute Poison Ivy/Harley Quinn lesbian sex scene?

>>212134795
Superman is a children's character inspired by circus strongmen. He flies around in tights, wearing a cape, and fighting monsters.

Do you track single issues or volumes? Or both? I'm not a heavy reader or anything, but I generally love cataloguing.

>>212135104
>Superman is a children's character inspired by circus strongmen.
That's Robin (the original, Dick), not Superman. Supes was inspired by pulp heroes like The Shadow and mythical characters from ancient Greece and Rome.

Lmao.

>>212135730
>Because the two men in the upper half of the image are trying to bring back the silly elements for kids
One of them is Tom fucking King, that wrote about Superman trying to expose his friends debilitating psychological issues because his wife needed to write a story for clicks, and the reason given that pleasing his wife came first, even if that meant outing all of his friends secret identity and personal vulnerabilities.

>>212135589
>Capeshit was made for kids
Yeah maybe in the 1950s, but those kids are old men now.

>>212135829
I know who King is, doesn't change the fact that he brought up bringing back the hypno glasses from the 70s kid friendly comics.

>>212135829

The reason given was that Superman wanted to spread awareness of mental health issues to destigmatize them

>Tom King
Gunn has fucked up immeasurably by keeping counsel with that retarded hack.

>>212135889
Places like reddit love Tom King.

>>212135924
But Superman was willing to go that for to protect Lois need for a story.
>The reason given was that Superman wanted to spread awareness of mental health issues to destigmatize them
No, it wasn't. It was about Lois wanting to write a story about the mental health place for heroes due to a murder happening in it.
This is the same comic that turned Wally West into a serial killer, mind you. You know, the guy that wants to bring silliness for kids.

>>212136006
That's funny because the story that Lois ends up releasing isn't about the murder, it's about the mental health awareness. Why are you bitching about a story you didn't read?

>>212136046
But in doing so revealed all the heroes that went to that place, and that they suffered mental problems. She basically outed them.

>>212135923
Cavill was really perfect for Superman. Unfortunate how Snyder mishandled the character entirely leading to this overcompensating hack garbage. Also Gunn is a pedo.

>>212136085
>in spreading awareness that mental health treatment isn't the exception but the norm and that it shouldn't be taboo she helped destigmatize the issue
Thanks for understanding her goal

>>212136133
In doing that she revealed that most of them shouldn't be working as vigilantes because they aren't mentally well. She basically fucked them over.

>>212136006
>You know, the guy that wants to bring silliness for kids.
The guy who loves kids had both of his children erased and you expect him to be perfectly happy and stable about it?

>>212135889
He has deep state connections.

>>212136208
Are you justifying turning Wally West into a serial killer?

>>212136184
The point of the story is every single person struggles with stuff, saying "they aren't mentally well" is why Lois needed to spread awareness, because that kind of language encourages people to bottle their issues up and not talk about it in the open, leading the notion something is wrong if your head needs care instead of the reality that every single human needs to maintain their mental health.

>>212133059
Nobody reads comics.

>>212136243
I asked you if you expect "the guy that loves kids" according to you to be all smiles after losing two kids, I understand you struggle reading

>>212136253
Lois only learned about the story because her husband helped run the place, and badly at that, and she never even consulted the other heroes if they consented to having their personal information leaked and a story made about their issues. Releasing that story fucked them over because it created a motive for the public to doubt them as heroes. One of them becoming a serial killer obviously didn't help.

I can't believe there is a shill defending Tom King's shitty ass comics. Defending Gunn i can sort of get. But fucking King? Jesus. This is the comic where Harley Quinn was able to overpower Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.

Yeah, and the Bronze Age was the worst era of Superman by far, unless we count in everything post-Flashpoint, which is even worse, maybe with an exception of Morrison's Action Comics, although it still was quite weak imo.
All the real fans of Superman want an adaptation of the Post-Crisis Superman stories. Byrne's, the Triangle Era, Death of Superman, that kind of comics.

>>212136976
This. Like if you saw some dude who looks like Obama working at your bakery, but acting retarded, you'd just say "man you look like Obama haha". You'd never even consider that Obama was secretly living a double-life waging.

Nolan never read any Batman comics, yet he made the most iconic Batman movies of all time. It's not about whether or not you read comics, it's about your vision.

Liar. You love Superman SO much that you spend your nights here railing against the new movie? Doesn't make sense. You'll pay to see it because you want to know.
Reevaluate your sad life.

>>212137760
>This guy is taking so much from All Star Superman
That's just something he's saying to drum up hype because it's the most acclaimed Superman comic. Nothing in the actual movie looks inspired by Morrison's work in any way. Seems like Gunn is more inspired by Waid than anything, in fact that was the writer he brought on to look at the script.

Nolan didn't write his Batman movies, Goyer did.

Does anyone else think it's ironic and hilarious that the purpose of these multiple nightly threads about Superman which get hundreds of posts, are supposed to generate BAD publicity and make the movie NOT succeed?

LOL, doesn't anyone here know how publicity works? There's no movie with this much buzz that bombs. Everyone knew Better Man was a dud. But Superman cannot possibly fail. The only person who even COULD run it into the ground was Snyder, and that's why now there's Gunn.
Keep making dozens of threads trying to shit on the new movie, retards. You're only helping sell more tickets in the end.
It's called the Streisand Effect.
LOL

>>212138654
>Liar. You love Superman SO much that you spend your nights here railing against the new movie?
Yes. Exactly because I love Superman, not Star-Lord version 3? Or 4 already?
>Doesn't make sense.
Makes perfect sense. I don't want to see one of my favorite characters ruined once again, that's all.
>You'll pay to see it because you want to know.
I won't pay for it, and I won't watch it. I'll rewatch Donner's movies instead and then reread Last Son and Escape from Bizarro World.

>>212138049
People like that stuff and they were successful. Superman will be the biggest comic movie of the summer no matter what. Billion dollars easily.

>>212134149

Super Hypnotism goes all the way back to the Golden Age. Even pre dates Lore like Kryptonite. But Snyder Saars still going to try and jam the signal.

>>212138836
You care too much. You're still posting and you'll post about Superman more and you'll do it in another thread and more threads every single day until and even after the movie premiers. LOL, you know that's true. And yet you pretend you're not going to see the movie and read old comics and watch your vhs in defiance of the new success.
I don't believe you. You're promoting the movie with each post and you're REALLY into this topic.
I have a life so I'm leaving now. But you won't. You'll be doing this for the whole fucking summer. Especially after it does so well after all the buzz you helped generate including your own purchased ticket. You're a HUGE incel, aren't you? You're Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons. I read your posts in his voice.
Worst. Troll. Ever.
lol
See you at the theater, you fat ugly virgin faggot.

It's because right now it's late night in America and mid day in India. The jeets come out at night. Hence, the Snyder fagging.

The Cricket threads over in Sports are probably pretty lively now too.

Yes, I like to shit on bad movies, just as I did with the sequel trilogy, The Wokelyte, and The Marvels. In fact, I haven't even watched the latter, I don't even have to watch terrible movies to post about them.
>And yet you pretend you're not going to see the movie
I'm not pretending; I'm just boycotting this flick, as I did with Justice League, The Marvels, and many others before them. On July 11, I'll be rewatching Superman and Superman II (the Donner Cut), and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
>See you at the theater, you fat ugly virgin faggot.
Maybe in another life. Btw, I'm 120 lbs and I consider myself quite attractive. And maybe I am a virgin, but I'm straight. You're probably projecting your own insecurities on me, otherwise I don't know why would you write that.

AIR used his Heat Vision to burn off his beard. And I guess also used it to shave his Super Nuts.

Superman fan here.I am going to watching the porn parody Man of Steel XXX: An Axel Braun Parody as its closer to the source material than this shit on July 11th like this anon said >>212137526 .

The Morrison quote is a cope. The golden age was full of actual cartoon logic. Supes had a new power every week and none of it mattered. Last week his super breath defeated the fishlord this week he’s drowning because the story calls for it. Who cares right?
Well even the kids did care and the inconsistency was stupid so around the silver age they started to get more hardcoded canon. What can heroes do and what can’t they? Where do the powers come from? How do they work?

All that shit people then like to pretend is stupid comic book guy shit. It’s literally the dividing line between IT’S JUST A CARTOON and the semi serious crap every capeshitter is doing right now. Nobody can go back to the golden age no rules writing but they make appeals to it when they get tired of making shit make sense.

>>212140723
>Did Johnathon and Martha Kent get Clark a social security number?
Yes, they did.
>Does clark pay taxes?
Of course he does.
>Does he bother with his employee health insurance?
Probably so.
>Does he leave his work attire laying around whenever he needs to swap to superman?
According to comics, he often hides it in trash cans.
>What does he do with his wallet and keys? There's no pockets on that suit.
I guess he doesn't carry a wallet these days, he probably uses Apple Pay. His keys and iPhone probably stay in his work or civilian clothes.

Superman is so impressive, and Clark Kent is so meek and unassuming, that no one would even make the comparison.
There's literally no reason to over complicate this.

Imagine if like peak of his fame Arnold Schwarzenegger also had a secret life as a farm boy who arched his back, and wore goofy unflattering clothes, did his hair bad, had kind of a reputation of being a local idiot. No one would think "that's Arnold Schwarzenegger".

Wouldn’t be the first time.

Remember when Superman had memory-erase kiss in the Reeves movies?

Remember in Returns when he knocked up Lois, then erased her memories, then had her raise his kid for years?

Superman is a creep.

Because you are a 'what do they eat' autist. That need for attention to detail is fine I suppose but you're always going to be dissapointed. A story has to be believable but this level of pedantry is pathetic.

>>212140836
>Well even the kids did care and the inconsistency was stupid so around the silver age they started to get more hardcoded canon. What can heroes do and what can’t they? Where do the powers come from? How do they work?
ESL? That has nothing to do with what Morrison said.

>>212136434
Exactly, it was 100% performance and it worked

Gunn is a retard and I genuinely want his movie to tank

>>212142006

>Nolan didn't write his Batman movies, Goyer did.
Goyer also wrote MoS, yet Sneeder failed to turn that script into a good movie, despite being so vocal about his love of comics.

>the disguise in this comic book made for babies always bothered me

The whole reason the glasses work is because it’s absurd. Why the fuck would Superman pretend to be a working joe? Doesn’t make any sense. You just wouldn’t believe it.

Imagine if one of your co workers looked like Donald trump with glasses on. You see him at work every day and think “fuck he looks like trump.” But while you’re at work you’re seeing trump on tv, and you’re seeing trump tweet, and ultimately trump is rich and powerful—why would he be wearing a disguise at all?

That’s why it works. It’s not a literal mask.

>>212132785
why is it such a ridiculus concept to the point of zero possible explanation that someone would do maintenance on batman's vehicles

The more they try to explain the secret identity thing
The more sociopathic Superman/Clark is

Like because he is human so Clark Kent has to be weak and meal while Superman be a hero has to be all heroic
And now you have to hypnotic thing going on which clearly goes against consent

Wouldn't it be easier just either have people close to he know who he is or him being a reporter is not possible to be superman thing?

>>212144358
He is literally saying that it's a trivial question that doesn't even need an answer. You are genuinely stupid if you don't understand this. 4chan is terrible at understanding even basic facetious speech or sarcasm.

Gunn and King are straight, Morrison is an elderly troon, I will take their side no matter what.

>>212131925 (OP)
I like how Snyderfags are butthurt over long time comments that Snyder does not understand Superman so now they're just copying that and constantly claiming "Gunn doesn't understand Superman!" for everything, no matter how spurious.

>>212132974
