I've never been into Superman that much, but a few things about this movie were legit.

**i don't know how the backstory/origin was supposed to be***

I enjoyed seeing how he came to be on this planet, and how things were when he was a kid/young adult.

I thought the first hour was really interesting.

Solid flick on a comic story I never gravitated to.

I enjoyed it. Is there going to be a 2nd one?

Also, Fishburne has gained a 100+ lbs. Holy shite.

The sequel will have both Superman and Batman, though Batman will now be played by, I shite you not, Ben Affleck.

I saw it over the weekend. I was a huge Superman fan as a kid, so I rented it even though it got bad reviews and Superman Returns was dull. But I thought this was pretty good. The casting was just about perfect. And there were some big action scenes.

I will say, the actor playing Superman was pretty spot on in my head.

And though Adams wouldn't have been my first choice for Lois Lane, she fine.

I won't lie, I thought the movie was pretty good.

Costner even delivered as the human dad.

Main thing I don't like is that they destroyed the Fortress of Solitude.

I thought I was clear that I never really paid attention to Superman stuff.

What confused you?

Nah, in this version it was the colony ship.

Where he "talked" with his biological father.

Seems like a ridiculous question to ask if you spend any time at all on this board

Gad you enjoyed the movie. It's really the Superman movie we've been waiting decades for.

Here's the discussion thread from when this movie came out in the summer if you want to read. LINK

Batman Vs. Superman. It will also include Wonder Woman, so really, it's a DC trinity movie.

I really hope his suits isn't all that remains of Krypton for him. It just wouldn't feel like Superman without his fortress.

I enjoyed it as well, despite what some of these miserable bastards say.

I loved it when I saw it in the theaters.

Then I watched Returns again last weekend and MOS this week and while I do enjoy the back half of Returns, MOS blew it out the water.

After watching MOS again, I'm actually a little aggravated that we won't be getting a strictly Superman MOS sequel and that WB will be adding in Batman/Wonder Woman.

That's Powergirl yo. And don't give me any "technically her and Supergirl are the same person" balogna.
