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..

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
