Perceived Jesus Allusions in Man of Steel (SPOILERS)
|
| |
SPOILER warning in the Subject line.
Quoting a poster from another thread on ramc-f, here's a
somewhat more provocative but not atypical example of
the hot button that all things Jesus can sometimes be:
...
Disagree and occasional shots like that were absolutely fine.
IMO the best Jesus allusion was where Clark went to a church... more »

Does Man of Steel Exploit Disasters Like 9/11? (SPOILERS)
|
| |
Man of Steel's Monday box office numbers are in and they
were 1.15 times that of Spider-Man's first Monday, a movie
that went on to gross $403M domestic. It raises the prospect
that Man of Steel could defy all expectations and become
the #1 movie of 2013. That tends to generate more buzz
and discussion everywhere, including the question in the... more »

Man of Steel Sequel in 2014, Justice League in 2015?
|
| |
Domestically, Man of Steel set an all-time June record,
beating sequels to Toy Story, Transformers, and Harry
Potter. It set an all-time record "hold" for Father's Day,
making almost exactly the same as it did on Saturday.
Saturday is usually a lot higher and even Toy Story 3
and Batman Begins, both Father's Day weekend openers,... more »

|
| |
On Friday, here in the Greater Toronto Area, I saw a 12:20 p.m.
showing of Man of Steel. Loved it and posted my A+ reviews
here (non-spoiler and spoiler-filled). So no complaints there
at all, but here were the sequence of ads and the like, and
the trailers, starting at 12:20 p.m. and running for 25 minutes... more »

The character, generally considered the first super hero as we know
them today, is celebrating 75 years since his first appearance in
Action Comics #1. He helped to kick off the super hero movie genre... more »

The movie was heavily spoiled before release and in a
post I identified two "supposed flaws" that seemed to
be getting the most discussion.
1. Superman Kills Zod
Yes, he does but the justification is even clearer than the... more »

Man of Steel, A+ (No Spoilers)
|
| |
A longer and spoiler-filled post on Man of Steel may follow
later today, but it was terrific from the get-go and all the way
through. Everyone is great in it. I'd single out Cavill, Crowe,
Adams, Shannon, and also Antje Traue as Faora, but the entire
supporting cast is superb. Kudos to Nolan, Snyder, Goyer,... more »

Man of Steel - What Flaw(s) Might It Have? (SPOILERS)
|
| |
Haven't seen it, but with all the trailers, interviews, press conferences
and the like, and the review embargo being broken reliably enough in
the last 24-48 hours, anyone who's fine with spoilers (like me! :-))
might already know quite a bit about the movie. In fact pretty much
everything. :-) It won't affect my enjoyment when I see it, but for... more »
