At this point Superman fans are so desperate for any Superman movie that isn't awful that they'll settle for disgusting pig slop because at least it's not shit. Though I doubt the general audience will come see a Superman movie after the decade plus of disappointment from the DC brand.
The general audience won't come out for a Superman movie because they don't care about Superman. It has nothing to do with the decade plus of disappointment from the DC brand.
literal cuck superman that spent an hour to have him catch a fricking plane when the matrix was supermaning all over the fricking place by this point is moronic and a horrible concept. it failed because it was doing the shit modern movies are doing right now way back then and people wouldnt put up with it. only difference today is superman would be cuked by some nog.
>decade plus of disappointment from the DC brand
One of, if not the best, Batgod movie ever made failed to make a billion dollars. I guess Gunn is actually smart for doing some random z-listers first to try and build up good will and let people get the word out that the Gunnverse is actually good, before making a movie that *should* be a massive hit.
>One of, if not the best, Batgod movie ever made failed to make a billion dollars
Surely you're not talking about that boring pile of shit that came out last year
Killing an enemy combatant to save lives is not murder. Frick you. Not killing the Supervillain with a million+ body count and inability to stop him would be disrespectful to those who died.
>Kryptonian parents
Okay as someone whose never read a superman comic, can someone explain to me how they even factored into his upbringing?? Wasn't the dude shipped off to earth as a baby??
Think of it like this: If you found out as a teenager that you were not only adopted, but also adopted from another country, wouldn't you like to find out about where you came from?
I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I like his work but I don't like shit focusing on the Kryptonian aspects of him, especially not when they're pitching this thing the way they have up to this point. >He's a big lovable goof, man
Doesn't compute with "super smart outer space alien guy with big science parents"
>Another wanky superman movie
I liked MOS but the movie was too wanky, why they don't tell a normal story. Superman is not even written that way in the comics
Damn, I was excited for Gunn to be in charge because I thought he would seek out the right talent for each of these movies. I've been proven wrong before it even started
No shit no one else wants to work for these guys anymore. Superman is already a headache for directors to make work, and DC has alienated people by having no plan and stringing along people for years with no payoff. An unknown for Superman is almost guaranteed.
Richard Donner got Superman right 45 years ago, he's not a hard character to make work, modern directors just need to significantly lay off the cynicism
>Richard Donner got Superman right 45 years ago, he's not a hard character to make work, modern directors just need to significantly lay off the cynicism
morons like you are why everyone hates superman.

Hmmmm. Why would Hollywood, an industry composed of leftists who voted for Hillary clinton, hate middle americans, strong masculine men, and conservative beliefs hate Superman?
>pic of a movie that's exactly like Donner's superman
You never watched Returns, that movie """supposedly""" being in the same continuity doesn’t make exactly the same Donner’s Superman, the tone and characterization are not the same.
>implyimg whiny emo Superman is anything like Donner's Superman
You're completely fricking delusional. The guy's doing an impression of Reeves at best.
>Richard Donner got Superman right 45 years ago, he's not a hard character to make work
Donner had an uphill battle 45 years ago and it's only gotten worse.
>modern directors just need to significantly lay off the cynicism
Superman can't punch out climate change or late stage capitalism without overstepping his bounds and becoming just as bad as the villains he fights.
>An unknown for Superman is almost guaranteed.
Hardcore DC fans who stuck with the snyderverse aren't going to go see the new one because it's not Henry Cavill. DC fans who want an accurate Superman movie because it'll be just like every phase 4 MCU movie in terms of tone and general story. And general audiences are so burnt out on Superhero movies in general they won't go see it at all.
Superman is doomed to never be relevant or popular in pop culture again. Sad but true.
Superman will never be relevant because he's not a character. He's a one dimensional mary sue archetype god and anything less would upset superman "fans"
>Oh my god Im realllllly hoping he's just speaking to writers I like and not the one I dislike. It's really important that he likes the same thing I like and dislikes those horrible writers that I dislike
God damn some of you are fricking pathetic
>people want creators of things to take inspiration from things they like as opposed to things they dislike
is this surprising to you? do you have brain damage? not enough sperm in your coffee today?
Hope you're ready for a Superman movie with >quirky 'self aware' joss whedon style comedy, out of place pop culture references and music and at least one fourth wall break.. >A Black Jimmy Olsen or Asian/Hispanic Lois lane lecturing Superman about his white privilege like Catwoman did in The Batman. >A Luthor who's meant to be an expy for the Orange Man Bad president. >A Superman who's a skinny weak physique instead of a buff Jacked superman physique Cavill had. >A story where the diverse and inclusive brave intrepid reporters like Lois and Jimmy are the heroes fighting the evil white man Luthor. >Full of propaganda and 'the message' about how Superman needs to care more about climate change and late stage capitalism instead of. Y'know. Fighting Supervillains and saving lives.
>Asian or Hispanic Lois Lane
Making a nominally white looking dude hook up with an ethnic chick isn't allowed unless you have them break up or she does in modern Hollywood. So it'll be black Jimmy.
>>A Luthor who's meant to be an expy for the Orange Man Bad president.
1978-1989 called to tell you to seethe more. There's a reason Lex used to be a real estate mogul back in those days.
Which was why making him into a Mark Zukerburg analogue was the worst thing they could've done, billionaire real estate mogul from the 80's was going to be relevant again in November 2016.
The problem with that is that back then Trump was generally viewed in a more uncontroversial and positive light because he was just a celebrity rich man. Trump-Luthor now would just be weird, like why would someone who doesn't like Trump use him as the model for a character who's supposed to be so smart he can challenge a god? Trump isn't even particularly good at being a real estate mogul.
>The problem with that is that back then Trump was generally viewed in a more uncontroversial and positive light because he was just a celebrity rich man.
How old are you?
Yes, because he was still seen as an butthole since that's his entire brand. But there's a big difference between an 80s-style rich jerk and the way people who don't like him think of him now.

Yes, that is also my post. I'm not sure what you think is contradictory here. Trump in the past was a bad guy who wasn't so bad he couldn't show up in regular programming, including children's television. If he shows up now it basically forces the situation to be political and specifically about him. A Trump muppet wasn't about Trump's politics, it was just a famous butthole landlord people knew from TV that served as a bit of a joke for the parents.

I think it's more accurate to say he's always been a punchline but now he's a punchline with a group of rabid followers that will get incredibly butthurt if he's used as such because they don't want to admit they backed a meme pick.

Yes, that's a better way to put it. In the past you could have him show up and it wouldn't be a big deal, but now there will be immediate meltdowns.
Siegel and Shuster's Superman literally sealed up Coal Barons in their own mines for overworking their employees. He was always concerned with shit like that.
TSS and Peacemaker are still canon and he claims that he won't have people playing 2 roles. That said he's probably lying and his brother will be Bibbo or Perry or something.
Zack Snyder took Superman too seriously and made him a complete joke. So Gunn won't take the character seriously at all and still make him a complete joke.
Welp. It's over before it's even got out of the fricking gate. You just couldn't let your ego go just this once and give us a director who actually likes Superman could you?
fine with me. I don't expect Disney/WB/Fox to put out an actually good superhero movie (especially after 2014)
I just want to see stuff from comic books I liked.
if the Trailer has krypto and (red head) Jimmy Olsen turning into something weird I'll go see the movie.

yeah, except he made it stupid
>genetically engineered scientists' offspring will not have engineered scientist genes because it was a natural birth
genes don't work like that man, a natural mix will have a different expression and some of the designed behaviors would be gone
>Superman will have daddy issues
This is literally just Guardians and Peacemaker again
Because God forbid a character have a good strong noble father figure who isn't either a villain, a bigot or an overbearing authoritarian.
Oh frick. That's exactly the problem that turned people off of the Snyder movies.
Pretty sure it was the murder and destruction of property
Killing Zod was not Murder anymore than Seal Team Six killing Osama Bin Laden was murder. Cry about it fanboy.
so it's murder
Killing an enemy combatant to save lives is not murder. Frick you. Not killing the Supervillain with a million+ body count and inability to stop him would be disrespectful to those who died.
That's disrespectful to every soldier everywhere.
No it wasn't
It was one ingredient in the toxic stew.
Well at least it won't be the first time a creepy sex weirdo has directed a Superman movie.
lmao this shit is going to be trash. everyone will be praising MoS and kneeling to Snyder after seeing this turd
Yeah one day everyone will love Snyder! You'll all see!
they already do though. Snydercut is the best cape movie ever made.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Think of it like this: If you found out as a teenager that you were not only adopted, but also adopted from another country, wouldn't you like to find out about where you came from?
Depends on the person. None of the adopted members of my family gave a shit about where they came from and neither did I.
They didn't feature in his childhood, but the data they sent with him became relevant to his perspective when he found it.
he has recordings and a spaceship
I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I like his work but I don't like shit focusing on the Kryptonian aspects of him, especially not when they're pitching this thing the way they have up to this point.

Yes anon the journalist that lives in a metropolitan city that regularly fights a billionaire is totally on your side 🙂
God the conservative cope is unreal
>Who hates Superman?
From the same morons that brought you "Why does everyone say Superman is boring?".
me
Probabky every anine and mabga reader.
morons on the internet aren’t people.
I fully agree with that because people on the internet are the only fans Superman has which is why his movies keep failing.
Pic unrelated?
>pic of a movie that's exactly like Donner's superman that everyone hated and bombed hard unrelated?
DC fans really are dumb as shit.
>pic of a movie that's exactly like Donner's superman

You're completely fricking delusional. The guy's doing an impression of Reeves at best.
That's just a shitty movie regardless of tone, just like Man of Steel. Why make Superman a deadbeat father?

Ok moron
>he calls himself "Superman"
>what an butthole
Lois Lane called him that idiot.
He was making a joke about the 1st GOTG movie about how they got their name.
it's over.
Gunn is just blowing smoke up people's asses telling them what they want to hear.
I'm hoping he's really just speaking towards a few of those like zdarsky and king who he clearly likes as opposed to howard.
>Oh my god Im realllllly hoping he's just speaking to writers I like and not the one I dislike. It's really important that he likes the same thing I like and dislikes those horrible writers that I dislike
God damn some of you are fricking pathetic
>people want creators of things to take inspiration from things they like as opposed to things they dislike
is this surprising to you? do you have brain damage? not enough sperm in your coffee today?
Yeah I can't believe he said a generic nice thing in public about people who work for the same company he does.
Maybe if it's unlike Gunn's other movies it'll be a good Superman movie
Gunn doesn't know how to make any other movie. If it weren't for the MCU and Nicole Perlman he wouldn't have even managed to make the first Guardians.
Hope you're ready for a Superman movie with
>quirky 'self aware' joss whedon style comedy, out of place pop culture references and music and at least one fourth wall break..

Yes, but you can't expect shrieking culture warrior tourists to know anything about the subject they're pretending to have a serious grievance about.
coming out in two years probably means it'll be bad doesn't it?
Confirmed for shit.
>I read so many comics guise!
so which character is his brother going to play? Lois?
TSS and Peacemaker are still canon and he claims that he won't have people playing 2 roles. That said he's probably lying and his brother will be Bibbo or Perry or something.
Sean Gunn was Calender Man in live action, so if TSS is still canon, him.
Can't wait for Superman to dab in front of the sun.
Oh, and for him to show his scat fetish.
Zack Snyder took Superman too seriously and made him a complete joke. So Gunn won't take the character seriously at all and still make him a complete joke.
Welp. It's over before it's even got out of the fricking gate. You just couldn't let your ego go just this once and give us a director who actually likes Superman could you?
shouldn't hard to top Snyder's trash

Please. Lois will be Asian. Jimmy Olsen will be black.
>Tom King in the writers room

New movie universe is fricked.
Hes involved in the Green Lantern movie Gunns allegedly writing the script entirely by himself.
>All star superman is garbage, superman hasn't been good since the mid/late 90s
"Fine, I'll do it myself"
Surprise to no one
Maybe Gunn will actually have Krypto on the big screen even if its just to call it stupid.
Of course he'll have Krypto. Gunn's a one note hack so he has to have a cute animal sidekick.
fine with me. I don't expect Disney/WB/Fox to put out an actually good superhero movie (especially after 2014)
