For me it was Superman growing to realize that his "real" parents were Ma and Pa Kent. Almost shed a tear, in fact.

Mr. Terrific is the only answer for this question.

if anything its critically underrated.

Metropolis was cool, Luthor and the Engineer were great also

>>212598462 (OP)
I liked the dog pouncing on his injured master.
Unfortunately that's about all there is to like in this film, a select few scenes that made you laugh.
No thematic commentary (in-your-face geopolitical exposition is not thematic commentary).

>>212598462 (OP)
The fact that Netanyahu, Engineer, Ultraman and the kaiju all got murdered by the heroes. Every one of them except Lex got fucking wrecked. I'm sick of the precedent Raimi and Nolan set with their cop outs, "duhhh hyackshually the heroes didnt kill the bad guy cause they uhh killed themselves."

>>212598462 (OP)
could have been a better movie if they just removed Superman and just had the metahumans led by the Green Lantern.
they literally would have just had to name Luther something else, and basically keep the same movie.
Making this a Superman movie was box office sales bait. Reason #8 it's close to a decade since I've payed for a movie ticket.

>but prove you're not an irrational hater and share ONE thing you liked about it
No fuck off it was all garbage

>>212598964
Superman didn't kill anyone though.

>>212598462 (OP)
Just got back from the theater with my nephew. I liked the tone a lot. The movie is right that making an optimistic, positive movie these days feels "punk rock" in a way. There's a million hacks who would make an edgy Superman instead and only a handful that would make him genuinely nice.

>>212599057
Engineer lived.

>>212598462 (OP)
Fillion was great the 2 minutes he was on screen, the dog chasing the flying balls first and drones at the end was ok I suppose, I liked Olsen and the scene where Superman is saving everybody even a squirrel.

>>212599215

>>212599184
That's what I liked about it too. It actually made Superman feel unique in the modern slate of things and his outlook is I guess sort of inspiring because in many ways its how I've always wanted to be.

>>212598462 (OP)
For me it was Krypto. He was such a good boy. : )

I don't really know anything about Green Lantern, but I was 100% confident that he would turn out to be evil, get killed or arrested at the end, and have some sort of end credits where a worthy black guy got the ring instead. I liked that in the end he was just a weird Green Lantern depiction

>>212598462 (OP)
The delivery of the main acting trio was stellar, the justice gang was funny, Krypto almost murdering Lex was hilarious and the final scene with the human flashbacks was the emotional high point of the movie. And that single scene with Supergirl was enough to get me interested in her movie.
I unironically believe the film was fine for the most part, but the lack of more quiet scenes really hurt the story. I'm not a fucking Ipad kid, I needed more moments of levity

>>212598462 (OP)
It was fucking great, you fucking retard...i can't fucking believe it was that fucking easy to make a good Superman movie by not making him a fucking retarded demigod with a christ complex!

>>212599466
>the lack of more quiet scenes really hurt the story
This is really my big problem with it. There's one boring apartment scene with Lois, and then the rest is flying or other dimensions or foreign wars. It needed more normalcy and relatability and I would've been very happy with it.

>>212598462 (OP)
Guy Gardner. In fact, I would watch a Justice Gang movie even if it meant more fucking Hawkgirl.

>>212598462 (OP)
I like how there's no autistic retardation about killing. Some superheroes kill, others don't. Some people are okay to kill, others aren't.
There's no this retarded (usually reserved to DC) morality of "either you kill no one at all and allow Joker to drop nukes on cities, or you're literally Hitler"

>>212599809
Power rangers had better outfits, fucking hell.

1. does the dog really dance in this? if yes I'm never watching it
2. are there any tits in this? if no I'm never watching it

>>212599883
That's true, they made one quick mention that he won't kill unless absolutely necessary, and then didn't obsess over the subject

>>212598462 (OP)
but I'm rational hater
also like nothing about it

>>212598462 (OP)
Its equally good/bad as Man of Steel.

>>212599184
>Raimi and Nolan
Heroes in family friendly entertainment have been pulling that shit since the 40s. Superman himself did that in golden age stories and the radio show. The Shadow did it all the time on radio. It’s just a dramatic staple to have the villain die by his own trap, hoist on his own petard, etc.

>>212599809
The Terrifics with Mr T and Metamopho and JLI with Guy and Hawkgirl...the spin-offs write themselves.

>>212599883
>Superman casually overlooks that some of his fellow "heroes" casually commit murder
Another level of retardation in this backed up toilet of mongoloidism from Gunn.

>>212598964
>The fact that Netanyahu, Engineer, Ultraman and the kaiju all got murdered by the heroes.
>Netanyahu
Explicitly killed by Hawkgirl. Only one close to murder and not in any way close to Batman letting Ra's die.
>Engineer
Explicitly said to still be alive.
>Ultraman
Sucked into a black hole that Superman in no way caused or could have prevented.
>the kaiju
Killed because it was destroying Metropolis. It's not a person so it's not murder, and it wouldn't be murder even if was human.

>>212601273
>cope x4

>>212600992
>Batmantard thinks Gunn invented superheroes killing
Superman has killed several times and will always continue to do so.

>>212600992
there's no way Hawkgirl would give an accurate report as to what happened, especially not to Superman himself. Lex himself was only arrested, and the political ramifications of "metahumans" murdering heads of state wouldn't just have gone away because of Lex and this specific guy being exposed.

Hawkgirl being the secret dirty cop in the Justice Gang is such an interesting idea and I hope they do something with it.

>>212598462 (OP)
I liked the part where the guy that looks like David Ben Gurion got killed by hawkgirl. Everything else was dogshit.

>>212600081
>does the dog really dance in this? if yes I'm never watching it
do you seriously believe in this?

>are there any tits in this? if no I'm never watching it
there's a bouncing boobs. i think there's a webm in the other thread

>>212599328
There are 1000s of green lanterns. Its like a galactic police force. Hal Jordan is one of them and its cannon hes a complete prick. Fillions portrayal was on point. John Stewart and Guy Gardner are the other big ones that people know. They have their own detective show coming up on hbo if I remember correctly.

>>212598822
>critically underrated.
So you mean the extremely positive reviews are fake?

>>212603663
My bad, ive been drinking, I mixed up guy and hal.

Guy gardener was ok
The actor who played lex was good
...

That's about all i can muster.

>>212599809
Never liked Guy in the animated series, but here he is charming and cocky as fck

>For me it was Superman growing to realize that his "real" parents were Ma and Pa Kent. Almost shed a tear, in fact.
Doesn't supperman always do that? Does also fly, or stop bullets? Is there a scene where Clark Kent is physically clumsy to distinguish his Clerk and soups personas?

>>212598462 (OP)
The marketing is amusing; I'll give it that.

>>212604051
no, Marlon Brando is far more important in the Reeve movies. generally the idea of Kal's Kryptonian parents being morally upstanding figures is VERY central to Superman, its makes him a saviour figure from birth.

this movie doesn't just "make them evil", it gives them all the trappings of being good and implies that they don't realize that they're evil, which is much edgier and more interesting.

you are now aware that if Gunn wants to do a Zod movie, he doesn't even need to be a rebel leader. Zod can arrive on Earth and lecture Superman for forgetting his heritage with total sincerity and boom we have a fully authentic colonialism metaphor.

>>212604411
I think what anon is trying to save that Clark always reverts back to acknowledging his Smallville family as his own.

>>212604145
Jesus fuck!
Women are whoreeeeeeeessssss!!!

>>212598462 (OP)
I am an irrational hater but Green Lantern was good.

>>212604556
that's mostly a narrative inevitability because his original parents aren't around. making them legit imperialists changes the dynamic and creates new plot implications.

>>212598462 (OP)
The bimbos. That’s it.

Superman/Clark Kent was brilliant and Luthor was fucking great

>>212598462 (OP)
only good part was fillion but he was underused. superman is dull and lame so much so it doesn't matter who makes the story or what philosophy they try to inject into it, they're all dull crap.

Should just limit him to supporting character

Two things. Lex Luthor monologue and notNetanyahu. Amazing

Its like the notMCU!

>>212608080
Is that the same bouncy boob lady from TSS?

The Supergirl scene was the best part. That's one cute monkee.

>>212608111
100%...she is also the voice actress for Chopper in the One Piece live action.

>>212604051
That's a subtle thing where in the beginning, it seems like Clark hasn't really seen his adopted parents in a while,he's in contact with them but he's busy and they sort of pester him to visit them more. When he's healing from an injury, he asks his robots to play a recording of his Kryptonian parents because he finds it soothing, even though it's just a partial recording.
At the end of the movie, after he sees the rest of his parents' message and learns they wanted him to take over the planet and breed with the women, and after he goes back to his adopted parents' farm to rejuvenate before the final battle, he ends up back in the fortress again to heal, but this time he has the robots play a recording of his childhood with the Kents.

How was the soundtrack? Was the first trailer just bait or do they use the music?

>>212598462 (OP)
lol why the fuck do you think we watched it?

>>212608366
They use punk rock songs
