Superman 2025 was probably the only solid DCU installment anyway. Who else is hoping Man of Tomorrow is at least decent, and that David/Nicholas still have gigs as Superman/Lex?
>>156240709If David does I hope he finally gets a better costume
>>156242094We've already seen set photos from Man of Tomorrow, the suit already looks better.
>>156240709I’m hoping they reverse that weird thing about Superman’s birth family being colonizers. Really my only issue with the Superman movie, I liked everything else.
>>156242180>I’m hoping they reverse that weird thing about Superman’s birth family being colonizers.In the shooting script, it was going to be revealed that Luthor intentionally mistranslated the message, but revealing would have undercut the message of the film about Clark choosing his human parents / his humanity over his Kryptonian heritage.
>>156242231Yeah, I hate that, because it’s not a real choice. Obviously he’s not going to side with people who want to subjugate his adopted family’s species. That also makes Jor-El kind of clueless since he would know Kal would be raised by humans and would care about at least some of them. It doesn’t work.
>>156240709The clips I saw were fucking awful.
>>156240709Nice art
>>156242231Translation thing made me drop the movie.>We were able to accurately translate a dead language with very limited set of words. Yes, we have no idea about their culture, their expressions or idioms but some top linguists say it's 100% true.It was too dumb for me to bear.
>>156242144It's the same shit, Supernerd.
>>156240709I only care that we're finally getting a live-action warsuit
>>156245737It looks like it fits better. I'm still not fond of the tubing.
>>156240709Unless the movie completely bombs, we're gonna get a third installment.
I don't like robosuit Lex. Devolving their relationship into punches seems like it is missing the point.
>>156246045I get what you mean in a way, but also, Lex isn't just brains, he's impulsive and violent enough to go out of his way to fistfight Superman, he's not content with always staying behind a chair or a computer.That said, I am kinda tired of the power suit, would like to see Lex fight Superman like Rick does, pulling random bullshit gadgets out of his pockets, all while still wearing his business suit.https://youtu.be/ykL-iMtpV50
>>156246201You kind of need the suit so that Superman isn't just slapping gadgets out of Lex's hands and treating it like a one-sided slap fight.
>>156246248Lex getting into a situation where he directly fights Superman is again missing the point of Lex. Any villain can get into fisticuffs with Superman. Why waste a Lex story with such trivialities. Suit Lex should be saved for elseworlds or wacky team up stories where Lex's help is needed to save the world.
>>156246271Sounds like you want Lex to be a little bitch scared to get his hands dirty. Not going to prove you're superior to an alien by doing that.
>>156246375Who can punch harder isn't proof of superiority.
>>156246271The point of Lex is that he hates Superman enough to find ways to fight him one on one, he's violent to a fault.
>>156246248For that you need to get creative with the kind of outrageous gadgets that Lex pulls out of his pockets.Think of the Men in Black tiny gun that could cause massive explosions, mix in some shields, stuff to disorient him, a couple handheld weapons, etc. It's not that hard.
>>156246382It kind of is though.
>>156246382Finding ways to fistfight an alien with god-like powers as a human kinda does.
>>156246409naw
>>156246402>It's not that hard.Has it been done, then?
>>156246414Although honestly Batman's done it so much that it's kind of lost its lustre. Beating up Superman as a normal human isn't the flex it used to be. And it's not just Superman, either. Batman's beat up Darkseid as a normal human, and probably god-like beings besides.
>>156246432Okay, I guess it would be kinda harder to draw and script a whole fight sequence with a bunch of creative gadgets and that Lex would constantly pull out of his ass instead of just using the usual armor.
>>156246271>Any villain can get into fisticuffs with SupermanYou say that like most of Superman's villains don't usually find other ways to fight him instead of doing it directly.Like Parasite absorbing his energy, Metallo exploiting his kryptonite weakness, Toyman using robots or mechs, Mxyzptlk and his bullshit, etc.Those who can go hand to hand against Superman are usually Kryptonians or possess similar strength.If you want someone who doesn't rely on physical strength at all and usually just prefers to outsmart Superman, you're kinda just thinking of Brainiac.
>>156246443>suddenly BatmanLuthor has done it way more, his main enemy is the alien in this case, he's always finding ways and excuses to fight him.Batman is more often than not just fighting his regular mental cases.
>>156240709If this movie was just Superman/Lex/Brainiac I’m sure it would be good. But Gunn filling it with Blue Beetle, John Stewart, Wonder Woman, Justice Gang, and whoever else just tells me a genuine story is inconsequential to Gunn’s state formula.
>>156246045Explain "the point" to us, then.
