Now the dust has settled, was it better than mos?
I wouldn't know but it looks insufferable.
yes but snydershit is an incredibly low bar to clear
Yeah I guess I enjoyed it more than Man of Steel but also I remember less of it. I feel like if you want to lean into the zany side of Superman and make a bunch of references that only comic book nerds care about then you should just adapt All-Star Superman. It's a great story that's easy to understand and appreciate even if you know very little about Superman and his lore, made slightly better if you do know that stuff.
Yes but again.. the bar is low
I liked MoS better
>>219201423No and the bar is somewhere in the middle
It's reddit as fuck
superman was never interesting
>>219202237I'm beginning to think "reddit" is just shorthand for anything that has a tone other than cynical, miserable bitterness.
>>219202481hi reddo
I liked the part where Superman and his motley crew of misfits saved the day!
>>219201423No. Too busy. Too Whedony.
>>219202481Some people use it that way, but I think defining what ‘Reddit’ is, is actually quite difficult. The one thing I would say is common amongst all Reddit adjacent media is a certain flavour of smugness, but not the usual ‘corporate funded Pride March’ smugness. It’s a very specific kind.
>>219201423yes by faraction scenes and aura is a toss up desu but it clears it in everyhting else
>>219201423It was too reddit
>>219201423No. Man of Steel is an all timer and is still a god tier pleb filter.
What did it mean? What was it about?
>>219202481reddit = blissful ignorance
>>219201423No. MoS is a true film in every sense of the word
>>219203836literally me
Funny that both Superman and OBAA both were 2025 films with similar message: Your birth parents don't matter. You are not your parents. You shouldn't define yourself by your heritage but by your friends and the people who raised you.Very positive message for kids.
>>219201423No. Man of steel was great. This was actively annoying to watch.
>>219201423>Now the dust has settled, was it better than mos?Easily, but that's saying nothing
>>219202481then you are no thinking
>>219203852>>219204006>>219204655Keep crying, samefag
>>219201472It is insufferable.I tried watching it, just stopped ~30m inI’ve watched some horrible movies in my day, it takes a lot for me to quit
>>219204617Positive message for kids from broken homes…
>>219201423No, it's exactly the same shit - girlbosses, diversity, raceswaps, made by two Biden dicksuckers who hate paragon characters.
>>219202481go back
>>219205211>girlbosses, diversity, raceswapsYou haven't seen the movie
I like MoS but it's not really a Superman movie. SM25 was more of a return to form.
>>219205459MoS would be a better action movie if it wasn't so boring, repetitive and dull, and the character wasn't so unlikable and childish
>>219205481The first half of the movie is genuinely really good as an origin story but the devolution into grimdark cgi action puke at the end nearly ruins it.
>>219202237funny to said that on a board that is the most reddit tier of all 4chan boards
>>219201423LOL, no
>>219201423yes but like everyone else has said MoS was actually awful so just the bare minimum of competence is enough to vault it ahead of that
Mos is just a bad movie. Even remove your expectations of who Superman is and what should happen in one of his movies. We have a man questioning if he should use his incredible power for good or not at all. But the opening scene is him using his power for good. Sloppy slop.
Superman 2025 is one of the worst superhero movies of all times. James Gunn, who excels in directing overdone violence, out of place quips, undeserved melodrama and perverted sex obsession brings all his trademark traits to this rendition of Superman. This isn't a Superman movie, it's a Marvel/Guardians of Galaxy movie with Superman in the middle of it. In fact, Gunn seems to enjoy writing Justice Gang far more than he does writing Superman. The former which ran off two jokes that were repeated ad nauseam throughout the movie. What makes Superman a compelling character is gone in Gunn's sloppy adaption. He's not particularly strong, he's not particularly wise, he's a poor leader, he's extremely narcissist and gets easily emotional. And this is supposed to be a seasoned Superman. It's almost like Gunn was projecting his own shitty flawed character on to Superman. The only missing touch would be if Lois was a minor. The action scenes are just a complete mess of CG blob. Superman is basically a rag doll that gets thrown all over the place and nothing in this movie has weight or meaning to it, particularly in its action. There's a scene where Lois and Mr Terrific break into enemy HQ and the whole ordeal is of course settled with a very catchy music montage of all the enemies being dismantled with utter ease. The next scene is of Clark trying to keep a CGI baby from drowning in lava with his deus ex dog arriving in timely manner to save him again. This is straight out of a Marvel movie and has no place in a Superman movie.This rendition of Lex is also his most shallow depiction. There is no nuance or intelligence to this Lex. He's not particularly shrewd and constantly spills out his plans for everyone to find out. He throws into temper tantrums just like Superman and starts to sob and cry because Superman is better than him. Where is the elegance and intelligence of Luthor? This is basically a spoiled rich kid battling another spoiled strong kid. 1/10, MCU slop.
>>219202481trvkelooks at those angry replies
>>219205481>>219205459>>219205529>>219205621All me btw. Good day saars!
>>219205529>genuinely really good as an origin storyNo really. Anything about Clark is insufferable
>>219205621Yep, agree
>>219205688they don't really give him much of a personality beyond brooding and stoic. felt like the movie was more interested in superman/clark as some sort of symbol or metaphor than an actual person. which was weird given how much they tried to ape Batman Begins which was all about developing Bruce as a person.
>>219201423Both are mediocre films.Superman has better "man" but the heroic part is mehMoS has better "super" as in it show better powerscale but the human element is implausible & written for Brownoids.
>>219205629This, but Snyder
>be Gunn>be an extremely shitty writer and director that only found success being tard wrangled by Feige>somehow your pedo narcissism makes you think you're hot shit after three movies of genocidal CG racoon dropping quips>go to DC>somehow trick the dumb fuck suits to make you head of DC, immediately multiple big budget DC movies flop and are cancelled>The Batman 2 is on hold as Gunn fights to steal the character>finally releases his DC Superman movie (his soiboi army pretended TSS never happened)>despite huge gaslighting by the online soiboi community, the movie becomes a flop with International audiences and far behind MoS not even adjusting for inflation>has to keep shill Peacemaker wherever possible, making Peacemaker more important than the actual man of steel>all upcoming projects are inbound flops and only appealing to a soiboi online forum warrior like Gunn>doesn't even dare to call Man of Tomorrow a Superman sequel>Supergirl is yet another wacky space comedy GoTG rehashBRAVOOOOO
>The Superman we all know and love!!11!!Let's his super powered dog harass and mutilate humansCries over mean tweetsPrioritizes squirrels amidst immense destruction and dangerCan't see Lex is issuing commands to Ultraman when they're literally 10 meters apartTortures leaders of sovereign nations and lets his buddies kill themCan't do anything on his own, needs either his dog or Justice Gang to bust his ass out every time
>>219201423Lmao no it sucks
I CLAPPED SO EPIC
>>219205719I also hate that he's what an angsty contrarian teenager would cal a man.All stoic and frowning, le misunderstood superspecial guy, and in a purely teenagey fit of exploseve race he realeases all his bottled emotion when provoked, resorting to dissennate hyperviolence.Manchild
>>219205803>>219205787>>219205772Sop crying, samefag
>>219201423Yes, MOS was just a incredibly lame retread of the first two Reeve films smashed together while also trying to be like Batman Begins.
>>219205326Oh, you really want to go through this, eh?Do I have to remind you that fucking Lois Lane has highest Kryptonian kill count in Sneeder verse?
>>219201423>thumbnailnot mcuh man, whats up with you
>>219203798It’s not difficult at all. It became used as a pejorative due to the type of enforced groupthink it produced. Then later ESLs would start using it to describe anything they don’t like.
>>219206002Lois in snyderverse isn't even a character, she's just a teleporting plot device
>>219205875I posted this one >>219205803 and Gunn's Superman sucks. Cope
>>219205211Paragon? Reeves Superman throws Zod to his death and smirks while Non accidentally commits suicide and as Lois murders Ursa. But he did let Lex live, strangely enough.
Man of Steel is so much better that it's not even fair to compare the two.
