Thread 212365224

James Gunn’s Superman is literally just Man of Steel + Krypto.

No origin story, fine. But we’re still doing:
>Superman conflicted about being alien/human
>Public distrust
>Military interference
>Lex Luthor manipulating perception
>Big gray-suit villain (Engineer = Faora 2.0?)

We’ve had 5 Superman movies since 1978 and Lex Luthor is the main villain in 4 of them.
And that’s not even counting the TV shows recycling the exact same story.
Why is DC so creatively bankrupt they can’t even pick a different villain?
Brainiac? Parasite? Mongul? Even Mr. Mxyzptlk would be a breath of fresh air.
And don’t even start with “it’s different this time.” Every reboot says that.
This is just another "he wants to be human but he’s too powerful" plot disguised as deep philosophy.
How many times can they recycle this before people admit Superman is boring?

>“He’s not like other Kryptonians, he’s special… again.”
>Every Superman movie ever

Superman will never escape Lex Luthor and Batman will never escape the Joker.
Modern cape movies are just eternal reruns.

>>212365224 (OP)
Need to see bizarro and brainiac

>>212365224 (OP)
Imagine being a kid today and thinking Lex Luthor is the only villain Superman has.
No Brainiac, no Mongul, no Bizarro, no Eradicator, no Darkseid… just bald Zuckerberg every damn time.

>literally just Man of Steel

but good. It can't be any worse.

>>212365543
Yeah, about that...

>>212365224 (OP)
American cinema has long become as creatively bankrupt as the Chinese one, which basically relies on Journey to the West, Three Kingdoms, and WW2, except in the US it isn’t just government bureaucracy and censorship preventing creativity, it’s just greedy jews rubbing coins between their fingers unless it’s a reboot or a remake

>>212365224 (OP)
Kids at least deserve a mean-spirited Lex Luthor who is a bald business mogul.
Zoomers had to grow up with Eisenberg's greasy haired babbling buffoonery.

>>212365640
Crazy how a guy with peak human baldness and a corporate Twitter account keeps making Superman cry every reboot.

>>212365660
Yeah...
If it ain't broke, don't fix it I guess.

Superman reboot checklist:
>Sad stare into the distance
>Speech about responsibility
>Public turns on him
>Lex Luthor monologues
>CGI sky battle
>Lois says “You’re more human than anyone I know”

Lmao the jew is such a fucking liar.

>>212366040
unacceptable

>>212366040
Typical business shoes have 2 inch sole. What is going on

>>212366383
Batman boots have 4inch sole

>>212366383
And Superman is wearing boots, retard.

>>212366692
He’s not wearing cowboy boots. Looks like rain boots. Those aren’t adding inches

>>212366040
>>212366383

>>212366821
That isn’t four inches. What measurement you use in India, how long your shit is?

>>212366902
Wait a minute...

>>212366934
Is she wearing a newspaper?

>>212366926
Show me where I said it was 4 inches, ESL.

>>212365224 (OP)
that's really what he looks like? jesus

>>212366956
You did. Stop lying

Hoping for Metallo if it gets a sequel

>>212367427
Looking like Bizarro

>>212366040
David Corenswet is 5'11

>>212365224 (OP)
Lex will try and shoot supahman with a kryptonite bullet and shoots Krypto instead so the movie get weepy over a mutt.

He's a fantastic character, and better than the superhero which is the norm when it comes to supervillains and their Mary Sue enemies. Luthor is a multifaceted person.
>Brainiac? Parasite? Mongul? Even Mr. Mxyzptlk would be a breath of fresh air.
It would be CGI slop
>And don’t even start with “it’s different this time.” Every reboot says that.
But it can actually be true.
