The Death of 'Superman Lives' Doc


Proudiddy

Recommended Posts

Anyone else see this?  Apparently it was done in 2015, and I had never heard it came out until I came across it yesterday afternoon on Showtime.  I've never been a huge Superman fan (it seems too easy for him, I prefer heroes to be underdogs, regular heroes who do superhuman things, adversity, and/or limited powers which require ingenuity to complement them), and over the years I would find little tidbits here and there about the idea behind 'Superman Lives,' and thought it would be atrocious.  The idea of Nic Cage being Superman was laughable to me, especially considering his reputation at this point...  But, after seeing this doc, I was absolutely amazed at the ideas they were coming up with and the concepts, art, and costumes they had, not to mention Tim Burton was the director.  After watching it, I am absolutely sure it would have been better than the last few crap Superman movies that were made.  I caught the last hour or so, and I'm trying to find it somewhere to stream now to watch the whole thing.  Has anyone else seen this?

I saw it. Very happy that it didn't get made, even if Returns was a pile of crap. Man Of Steel fixed it all.

    • Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.
    • I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
