<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>This could be a blessing, depending on who replaces him (if he knows X-Men beyond 2 graphic novels). As much as I liked the second one, it still needed polishing</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>yeah but so far he did a better job than most everyone with superhero movies. now hopefully he makes a kick ass superman movie....I'm glad they got rid of the last guy. the last diretor had a script where krypton survived.......ah well</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Sam Raimi and Ang Lee were far better with their films than him. His were still good, but could have been so much more</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Yeah, and fuck you very much for that. Singer passes up one of the best story arcs in X-Men history for ANOTHER fucking Superman movie?!</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>They had his scheduled to start writing Ultimate X-Men. I wonder if that's still gonna happen</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Ang Lee should stick with flying Chinese people, not comic books. He turned Hulk into too much of a love story, because that's all he knew how to do.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Ass fucking who?</div>

 #60350  by Derithian
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>And The Hulk was pure crap......except for one fight scene it was horrible</div>

 #60351  by Derithian
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Plus the casting was terrible. I mean shit, Banner is supposed to be an extremely nerdy character.....not an underwear model.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>Yes, and an orgy at the Playboy mansion with the all of 2003's playmates could probably be better too, but I don't think anyone would complain about that.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>True, and among super hero heirarchy, it gets not bigger than that.</div>

 #60359  by SineSwiper
 
<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Which is the problem. It's played out, finished, done, cliched, and honestly, one of the least interesting and "human" characters in the comic book world.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>I wouldn't say it was horrible, but flawed. I'd put it in the same level of flaws that Hellboy had.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>There's more to Superman than most people think. They need to show the fact that while he's super-strong, fast, etc, he still has to deal with the fact that he can't be everywhere at once and he can't police the entire world and every person who wants to do bad things.

I'm reading the latest run of Superman and it's cool because Superman is trying to "do the right thing" and he finds that it's not always so clear cut. If they did it like, I think it'd be a good movie.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>not only that but read some of the more recent JLA and superman issues. He's got a much better character than anyone thinks. They just don't like him because of his powers</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>And both were entertaining films</div>

 #60386  by Derithian
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Hulk was terrible. I stand by that. well, it was watchable but it's still far from being a good movie. Hellbopy was a good comic movie because it kept the feel of the comic.</div>

 #60393  by Derithian
 
<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>yeah it really took him dying to make him a good character. for the most part sice his official return he has been awesome. (After he got back to his real self...the energy being was just kinda.....meh</div>
