See my issue with MOS is more the poor placement of actions to scenes at certain points, doesn't take away from what is imo a great film though, just tweaks I would personally have made to imo better suited the narrative of the moments.
But Hauntedknight87 you one crazy motherfucker if you think Zod is the hero, Superman did what was right, Krypton and the Kryptonian people had their time, they had the knowledge and ability to survive maybe even circumvent Kryptons destruction but they didn't, the psychotic criminal remnants don't get to take over our world for a do over, you nutty son of a bitch.
I mean interesting discussion to be had with buddies if you're stoned but fucking lunacy otherwise, I approve and disagree regardless.

Superman didn’t commit genocide. That’s ridiculous. Yes he did. He helped bring the extinction of the Kryptonian race, all because he was selfish in his crusade against Zod. Zod was the one who was trying to wipe out the human race. The Kryptonian race was already on the verge of extinction. Trying to resurrect one species at the expense of another isn’t exactly a moral thing to do.

You're looking at it through the point of view of Superman. You really need to look at Zod's point of view.

Ineffable is a fun word to put in serious writing!

Ineffable is a fun word to put in serious writing! I would also think it's not the right word to use to describe someone after having already effable spoken of them as you had, then again what do I know?

Fair point, though it can also mean “too great that words cannot do it justice,” distinct from “cannot be used.”

It has grown on me too. Although I think it needed more heart to it - it feels very cold. I think Loius Lane could have provided that if she had a better written character because after all she is the link between Superman and the civilian world.

this pro child rape forum You’re so damn stupid it’s mind blowing. I take your projection as a compliment, zombie brains.
Now, don't you have some creep to defend...? Mr Gunn made some jokes about anally raping his daughter! To the rescue of the good man's honor!

Watched Man Of Steel in full for the second time last night...it was the only DCEU film I hadn't watched multiple times. I have to say, it's pretty good, for the most part. It's far from perfect. Superman for me has always been one the dullest of comic book heroes, but there was some nice ideas and questions raised. Probably ranks at the moment as my favourite DCEU film.

I think it was the best comic film of 2013 1. Man of Steel 2. Wolverine 3. Thor 2 4. Iron Man 3 Because you're stupid.

oh..no, the horror, a grounded superman for 2013 when we were forced to accept The Mandarian from iron man 3 is a joke.
does the movie have problems, yes. but it was not a bad movie.what snyder had to do was to remove a little bit of fighting scenes, have superman be uplifted 50% and broody the other 50% of the time and the movie will be excellent but by no means was it a terrible movie. the technicality of the film was great too.

Iron Man 3 was far more grounded than any DC movie and handled themes of media manipulation, drone strikes and the war on terror in a much more coherent, compelling and thought provoking way than Man of Steel handled anything. Aldrich Killian/The Mandarin was also much more compelling as villain and had better dialogue and motivation than Zod and his men.
