The scream was so unbelievable at the end. Lets not forget Jor-El's fight across the planet. Super weapons destroying metallic ships but only gives his flying dragon a scratch? Like WTYF!?!?!?!

    I give up on Hollywood ever making a good Superman movie. So far just Superman from 1978 and Super Returns my favorites.

    Not too keen on the whole our atmosphere makes them have a tough time breathing, You know, Clark spent most his childhood getting use to... and Zod and his goons take all of but 2 minutes to adjust. Uhh... ya...

    The suit is just fugly. Rather than make a new suit (Batman suit minus the cowl), they should have just revised the Superman outfit cause the Superman Returns outfit is the best so far.

    Ya, I did not like how this movie was portrayed.
    Agree with you and Sapphire about pretty much everything concerning this movie. What a mess of a movie and a complete disappointment.

    Some stuff that stuck in my mind as particularly bad:

    Zod was bred and trained to be a warrior yet Jor-el the scientist kicked his ass in hand-to-hand combat.

    Calling him "Cal" was the most obnoxious shit in a movie since Darth Vader was called "Ani".

    I also thought it was ridiculous how quickly Zod and his men adapted to their new powers.

    This was basically a natural disaster movie and sucked as bad as all of those.

    This movie focused on the weirdest little crap and wasted so much time on that crap that could have been used on character development or relationships. I'm still stunned that Zack Snyder was involved in this mess. Wasn't surprised to see Nolan was involved though.


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    Haen`t seen the movie, but in the comics Jor-el has always been a badass fighter, I can totally see him destroying Zod, same goes for his wife.
    You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. -Marie Curie
