Opening June 14th.
Snyder tends to focus on the gratuitous. The comic 300 had no sex scene. Just the brilliant comment by the Queen about Leonidas’ enthusiasm the night before. I still disagree with changing the ending of Watchmen. He also IMO changed one of the key lines of Rorschach from the book. The scene where he grabs the prisoners thumbs reaching in to his cell. In the book he says “my perspective” not “my pleasure”. Maybe I’ll give this a chance when it comes out on disc through Netflix.
Just an FYI, the original Superman (and obviously still the modern one) was based on the biblical Moses by the 2 Jews who created Superman.
Just a fun fact I wasn’t sure how many people might know that. Probably most kids will never know or realize it.
LOL...'transgender' had everyone going, but rumor has it that she's Jimmy's sister...maybe she'll croak in such a gruesome fashion that Perry will turn WHITE with shock, and Jimmy will take her place at the Daily Planet.
I admit...I cringed when I heard that...
Thanks for the ping
Seen like about 4 Supermans, 7 Batmans, 3 Spidermans and a host of other assorted “Super heroes” over the past 35 years.
I’m done with all of that.
Thanks for the invite - I’ll pass.
You worked on this movie? That must have been a great experience! :D
Still haven’t decided on this one. Really don’t like Superman, really like Nolan, enjoy Snyder even though his instincts are often odd. Hoping the Superman fans don’t like it, that makes me more likely to like it.
Looks like you'll be saving some money...fan boys appear to be salivating.
Why? Is the word and even the concept of "hope" now eternally damaged b/c of Hussein? I don't think so.
Uberman: Excuse me, Mein Fuhrer! Stand back! There's a bomb in this briefcase! [ thorws bomb to the floor, then dives on top of it. The bomb explodes, smoke rises, and Uberman stands up unharmed. ]
Hitler: You smothered the bomb with your body, and you're not even bleeding! Who are you?
Uberman: I am.. Uberman! I have superhuman powers, and I fight for untruth, injustice, and the Nazi way! And I have X-ray vision!
Lois Laneoff: X-ray vision? Can you see through my clothes?
Uberman: Ja! And through his, too. [ points at Jimmy Olstein ] He's a Jew!
Jimmy Olstein: No! No, it's not true! My parents were just very advanced in hygeine, that's all..!
Hitler: Silence! Guard, take this Jew away!
Uberman: No need! I'll drop him off at the camp on my vay to the Eastern front!
[ Uberman grabs Jimmy Olstein and flies out the window ] Hitler: What an amazing stroke of luck. We might win this whole war!
[ cut to footage of troops marching - newspaper headline reads: "Uberman Takes Stalingrad in 5 Minutes"; second headline reads: "Uberman Rounds Up 2 Million Jews"; third headline reads: "Uberman Kills Every Person in England, U.S. Next" ]
They confiscated phones and cameras.
It was the most “locked down set” I have ever worked on
Looks like this Superman at least has some muscles.
Unless that’s all a body suit.
The people in this hired Victor David Hansen as the advisor for the making of 300.
If they have the brains to do that.
Then perhaps there is hope the will get Superman right.
