Is this really necessary?


Why do we need another Superman movie?

Nope. Been done to death.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. It's not because I feel in love with Reeves as Superman. He generally played the part the best. He added humanity, humility, morals and sound judgment to the character.

All the other Superman movies lack good writing and well developed supporting characters.

Personally I've no interest in Superman, although I'm interested in some of the other heroes they're using it to introduce into this new universe. I doubt I'll pay to see it.

Why do we need another Batman movie?

reply

I agree with that also. I'm tired of all these Batman movies and their franchises. They have Batman fighting the same villains over and over. Batman in the comics fought many villains but mostly Joker.


Now if they would make a trillogy of Batman and Joker in an epic battle, that would be kind of spectacular.

Fair enough. Although I would say that as a diehard Supes fan we need a proper modern day Superman movie.

The 2006 movie acted as a legacy sequel to the original series and was not well received by fans and critics.

And the Henry Cavill films were very divisive to say the least. Cavill was fine in the role, and I wish he had gotten a proper shot. But for me personally as a Superman purist I hated what Goyer and Snyder did to the character. Not to mention he got sidelined in his own sequel which is inexcusable.

So hopefully Gunn can capture what Snyder and company failed to accomplish. I want that and I feel alot of other Superman fans do as well
