<p dir="auto">Actually, may be the only watchable version of Superman I've ever seen. Basically just a DC rip off of Guardians of the Galaxy, with less appeal. Mr. Terrific, who I thought I ws going to hate, is the standout character ("I'm motherfuckin' Mr. Terrific, bitch") and Noho Hank as Metamorpho, Nathan Filion as Guy Gardner Green Lantern  are also better than their comic book counterparts in this B-grade GOG ripoff. Superman is a bit of a dick, too, and as WSuperman describes Krypto, he's not really the best dog ever, even though he turns out to be.Brief cameo by Rhaenyra Targaryen as Supergirl at the end, and she's not what you would expect. She's amazing. The boy from Righteous Gemstones in there, too. He's Jimmy Olsen, chick magnet, if you can believe that.<br />
Negatives: `Black Perry whatever, some lesbian Hawkgirl ripoff, and the guy who plays Lex Luthor sucks.<br />
8/10<br />

<p dir="auto">Superman is supposed to be the most alpha, machismo, charismatic person in the room.<br />
It made be uncomfortable when Superman is the bottom betacuck to the very dom and alpha Mr. Terrific, and tough guy Green Lantern.<br />
Superman squealed and his voice cracked, like Peter Brady going through puberty, when he was talking to these guys. He was intimidated by them. I got PTSD flashbacks of molestations that never happened.<br />
Also,<br />
Superman has told Tranny Lois and other superheroes his secret identity.<br />
This is problematic.<br />
We've already seen Green Lantern say the secret in the Daily Planet, where there are cameras.<br />
People gossip. Accidents happen. There's no way that would not have traveled to the pocket-verse.<br />
Superman saves no random civilian from an accident or natural disaster that isn't related to the villains: no train derailments, no dam breaking, no plane going down, no ship sinking, no flood.<br />
He only saves people if he's already close by from a villain he's currently fighting.<br />
Never lose your desire.</p>

<p dir="auto">So you wear a cape then? Bro, your obsession with Superman is so intense, I’m convinced if Krypton hadn’t exploded, you’d still be trying to buy real estate there.<br />
You talk about Superman like he’s your therapist, your gym coach, and your imaginary best friend rolled into one—but he wouldn’t even save you if you were dangling off a cliff wearing a LexCorp shirt and begging in fluent Kryptonian.<br />
You’re out here thinking Clark Kent is a personality template when really you’re just a guy in glasses with no job, no cape, and the charisma of a wet Daily Planet newspaper.<br />
You’ve read Death of Superman 14 times and still haven’t realized that the real tragedy is your dating life.<br />
At this point, you're not a fan—you’re a walking, talking Smallville gay filler episode.</p>

<p dir="auto">You had best chuck "Spoilers" into the thread title. Some people get weird about reading about things that are just out and they haven't seen yet<br />
That all said [SPOILERS]<br />
I liked it. He wasn't quite Reeve's or Cavil's Superman but he was better than Routh's (In my opinion at least). There wasn't any angst there and we got a "Gosh" and a "Golly" from him naturally enough. I didn't buy his Kansas parent's though, I thought that was a bit guff.<br />
The additional heroes outside of Supes were fun but a bit muddled in a new telling of Superman's story. I guess Gunn, like Snyder, wants to skip the origin and formation elements of his 'troupe' but the T guy was cool, kind of like Spock or Egon from Ghostbusters but still rocking it a little more modern. Speaking of, lots of science fiction cinema tropes spread across the movie. Not everyone will spot them but there was plenty there for conversation starters around the movie.<br />
I'd have ditched, or completely revamped, the Lois b-story. I'd rather have brains and determination than a limo spaceship carrying the entire Daily Planet staff around.<br />
I'd put it above Superman Returns, Man of Steel and Superman IV. A but underwhelming and similar to a Whedon flick but closer to what a modern superhero movie which pays decent homage to the comic books are<br />

<p dir="auto">Am not a big enough fan of supes to know if this version of him is right or wrong or comic accurate or what not.<br />
I'm not a fan at all. He's the most boring and blah character maybe ever. I had zero investment going in, but did end up liking this version of him. His adopted parents are probably the best representation of what they should be, whatever that means.<br />
I remember some reviews saying that the black dude gets more heroic action scenes than superman himself?<br />
He was pretty badass. Mr. T is motherfuckin terrific. I would definitely watch a standalone movie of him. This dude is super black, too, if that matters. Obviously it does.<br />
and that superman is a weak ****** but never gives up god bless him….<br />
True. But it's only because he isn't very smart. He's also abusive to his girlfriend, in a way, who doesn't even want to be his girlfriend.<br />
