    It depends on if one is dirty enough that cleaning will improve the grade. The "penalty" would only be for 'dirty' books; If you don't clean a 'dirty' book, it will grade lower.

    I got banned from the topic. Only reason I can deduce is because I shared my enjoyment of the movie.

    Looks like you're only allowed to dislike The Flash on this site.

    For what purpose can't Superman kill a non-human in his first movie...? That sounds like keeping something for the future just because one can. And just because one can does not mean one should. This was tackled in the sequel. If you re-watch MoS until the Phantom Zone part, turn it off, pretend Zod was in there, and tell me that you'd be satisfied with that conclusion... I'll take your word for it. I'm quite sure you'd be disillusioned by that, though. Christopher Nolan and David Goyer wrote Man of Steel. Not Zack Snyder. And all 3 of those guys know Superman.

    Nah. If we didn't have conversations about subjects we disagree on, nothing would get solved. You're okay with the tradeoff of multiplying TATs then?

    Just a nitpick. I know my favorite movies aren't perfect.

    I'm not wasting my time "searching for random books". That's a fool's errand. So what you're actually saying is: "Sometimes CGC notes major defects on the label"? Not, "some people always get grader notes".

    [adult swim] had Futurama on-and-off for a long time.

    It's the same "some", not separate critics. As no one can force him to do anything, a Superman who continues to choose to save people must get joy out of it.

    Actually, the shipmate saved Clark from the falling cage. Which I always kinda felt was weird. A regular human can push Clark? However, I'm also now remembering that HS bully pushing him into the fence in a flashback. Still kinda weird.

    This is just flat-out wrong. There were 2 Jesus homages in MoS. He looked bored? Like completing a menial (=easy) task?

    Kinda highlights my point. The only difficult decision Clark made prior to killing Zod was to let his father die so that he could find himself before revealing who he is to the world. 2 difficult choices in a 2.5-hour movie and it's allegedly 'too much'.
  13. theCapraAegagrus
    Going job-to-job saving people from basic disasters sounds like "easy" choices to me.

    I have an awesome idea for a Superman movie involving Brainiac. I have all of the basic concepts written. That being said, the ending would probably be received the same as Man of Steel, because some fans cannot fathom Superman making a difficult choice. For whatever reason, people want him to win without consequence.

    I think Muschietti did a relatively great job of directing The Flash. Aside from the fact that I think Kingdom Come is untouchable, Soy Cameron would be a terrible director for a CBM.

    Looks like a Ring to me.

    What grade their book is, not the proprietary method of assigning that grade. Who are "some people"?
  18. theCapraAegagrus
    If that's true, it shows precisely how how out of touch with reality the executives are.

    At this point we're all only debating symptoms 1 at a time.
  20. theCapraAegagrus
    Do you expect anyone other than grading companies to disclose why/how they chose the grade they did? Do you expect them to disclose restoration or major defects? If the answers are "no" and "yes", in that order, then I'd ask everyone to be consistent.
  21. theCapraAegagrus
    This has happened. Did you contact CGC?
  22. theCapraAegagrus
    Once again, I will mention that it's not CGC's job to teach their customers how to grade.

    When he was hired, the director was told not to read the comics.

    Insect chew?

    These are aftermarket staples?
