The Ideal Superhero Movie Formula


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

most of the famous superheros have been around for 50 years. the last thing that is needed is for some former music video director to think they need to give them a 'fresh' new spin.

you can pretty much look at every comic movie and the reviews (both critics and public) to tell which were most faithful to the source material.

batman and robin - changed source material, universally hated

batman begins - more faithful, universally loved

x-men 1 and 2 - (relatively) faithful to source, good movies

x-men 3 - music video director with fresh new take, terrible movie

spider-man 1 and 2 - mostly faithful, wildly successful and loved

spider-man 3 - dancing

the best thing to happen to superhero movies is Marvel Studios buying back most of the rights and making the movies themselves. Iron Man is the best example of that.

I think i am the only person that has never liked the Spiderman movies...they are IMO too soft and they could have got a better Mary Jane.

The cast from the show.

Lex is gone on the show right now. He is in a coma. Defiantly need some other villains in the movies.

Tom Welling looks more like Superman than the guy they got in the new movies.

I always thought the should have gotten Nikki Cox to play Mary Jane.

I could see that...since Smallville is intented to be Clark Kent before he was superman..then the show ends and Tom could be superman..

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
