Arguably still the best in the genre. One of the best execution s of the hero's journey in picture, sound and characters.

Insignificant? Without Superman: The Movie, there wouldn't be any XMEN, SPIDERMAN, or the MCU for that matter. What we can say for sure is without Superman: The Movie, there wouldn’t be a Superman 3 or 4. However, the failure of the Superman series probably does deserve some credit as a cautionary example of what not to do. When pitching their ideas for the X-Men and Spider-Man movies, a decade later, I’m sure Singer and Raimi had to first convince the studios that they knew how to avoid following in the sullied footsteps of Superman. In other words...

”Strike one!”
lenlen steps away from the plate. What just happened? That was his home run swing and he totally whiffed! He glances angrily at the umpire. The bastard was having way too much fun with this. lenlen composes himself, returns to the plate and glares at the pitcher. King Kong Brady smirks, spits and begins his wind up. Suddenly, lenlens legs start to shake, his hands sweat, the stadium spins. Oh no! Not another panic attack on national TV! Sure, the resulting Depends adult diaper endorsement was lucrative, but it was also humiliating ........ to be continued.

Duh ... Me no understand. Geez fella, I was kinda hopin’ I wouldn’t have to spell it out for you. “Strike One” is you violating the new behavioral rules of this board. There was no need for you to get all angry butt-hurt over an innocuous months old post and lashing out with some unseemly name calling. I even posted the link to the rules, in case you had forgotten. Did you miss that? A “Strike One” is also analogous to a batter whiffing at the plate. You’re the batter, I’m the pitcher and the mods are the umpire. Get it? I was having a little fun with that one. The Depends reference was about what happened the last time you tangled with me. Depends are adult diapers for people who wet themselves.

I "wet" myself the last time I "tangled" with you? Holy shit! Dude, are you in your own fantasy land too? Not only are you an asshole, but you're also actually outright crazy?! In your mind our last interaction ended with me wetting myself?!
There are pills, therapies, and institutions for your kind of crazy, man! You don't have to suffer! Go... get the help you need!
The man's crazy!

What ... you think that spamming the board with witless memes is seen as a righteous act of defiance and not a clear indication of someone trying to overcompensate for a Herculean case of inadequacy, and lack of bladder control? ... snicker ... Are you testing the mods now? Tsk, tsk. Oh, and in case you forgot about the last time you pissed yourself, here you go, chum! funniest angry meltdown

Are you testing the mods now? Tsk, tsk. Oh, and in case you forgot about the last time you pissed yourself, here you go, chum! funniest angry meltdownok, dude, in all seriousness, every time I read something you've posted, its negative, snide, annoying and at the expense of someone. You're never on the right side of an argument, making an argument that benefits someone or comes to someones defense. It's always some stupid, negative comment, intended to put someone or something down. You're a miserable curmudgeon who likes misery. And you're the worst kind. The kind who actually thinks he's important and funny. But you're not. Not even a little. Even your fucking icon is annoying and full of it as hell. You're arrogant, you're full of shit, you don't actually know nearly as much as you profess to, and your whole attitude sucks. You're stupid, arrogant, immature, and just plain dumb. I cant think of more negative things to say about. I only wish I could say it to your face. And I feel perfectly comfortable writing this because I've extended the olive branch in the past and you didn't take it. You didn't take the chance to put the B.S. behind us. Instead your doubled down on your miserable ass holiness. So, like a pig, go root in your own shit.
I don't care if the mods do come after me for writing this but you really are an asshole. You're the pure fucking definition. So, once and for all, and finally, kiss both sides of my ass and fuck off.
Is that strike three or a home run?
And here's me wetting myself... I'll even alert the mods myself: Hi scabab and Hauntedknight87, I've had enough of King Kong Brady, and gave him what for. my apologies to you guys. Judge me as you see fit.

And here's me wetting myself... ... anyone got a mop?! This might be a good time to revisit my comment that made you lose your shit. “What we can say for sure is without Superman: The Movie, there wouldn’t be a Superman 3 or 4.

I dunno, seems like a fairly benign POV on the state of the superhero movie scene following S:TM and it’s sequels. You had a choice, argue it rationally or fly off the handle like a raging psychopath.

Well that's gonna be the end of that or there really will be some strikes abound and nobody wants those. You've both had your say now.

The difference is that one of us has been civil and abided by the new rules, the other has not. Clearly, lenlen has some anger issues. Just do a search of the word “asshole” in his recent posts history and you get pages and pages of returns. There is a pattern of toxic behavior that has not stopped. Arguably, he is worse now than ever before.

Yeah that would be a warning for now, not a strike until it happens again because I know not everyone is going to be bothered to look at the rules.

A call to order or informal warning should suffice in the case at hand IMO. Lenlen can be a passionate hothead but in the end represents what forums like these need not to become stale and dead. Only God will have mercy on King Kong Brady's soul, but even He might suffer a meltdown or two when dealing with this kind of baiting.
And this is priceless:

And this is priceless: I'm afraid that there is no room for anything but dispassionate tedium on these message boards. The fact that the exclusion process in place is very long and drawn out means that the superhero boards might manage to remain in a coma for several years before the life-support system is finally switched off.

Lots of grey areas, there was just a thread calling out "DC Turds" which inicially was not censored, and still a lot of lowbrow insult and slander without consequences - the entertaining "you a-hole - you raging psychopath" exchange above would have be moded under the former regime too. Reporting may have increaded, or is now just more openly done in lieu of PM whining?
This is not like switching from Coke to DietCoke, but rather from DietCoke to CokeZero IMO (for the record I prefer Pepsi) ...

I'm pretty sure the "DC Turds" thread was removed.

Actually, he knew the rules when he broke water, but he intentionally went full toxic avenger anyways. You’re going to need a different excuse for permitting this sort of behavior to continue to occur. If this degree of leniency is to be the norm, then nothing has changed. Sometimes they give you no choice.

Whatever is decided about me in regards to this thread and forum, I will abide.
But please, PLEASE, for the love of all reality itself, do not fall for this woe is me nonsense that King Kong Brady is trying to pull over on you guys. This is just his version of trying to sucker you.
I admit I get hot tempered sometimes, but if you look at my history of posts you will see an even and normal amount of commentary that runs the usual gamut of responses, from agreeing, disagreeing, discoursing, jokes, serious commentary, silliness, and yes even jerkiness, etc. etc. Whereas KKB is consistently just the worst sort of arrogant, miserable, curmudgeonly, small mined, negative person there is.
DO NOT FALL FOR THIS "WOE IS ME" ROUTINE FROM THIS GUY. See for yourselves what our histories are.
