Just think it's ridiculous how many threads have been started about MOS, instead of just adding to those that are already established.

From some of the reviews I've read,critics are upset that it's not the Superman of old or it doesn't have the charm & heart of past Superman films.

 

 

This is a REBOOT!!!! :sumo:

 

The Superman of the past doesn't work well with this generation of movie audiences.

 

WB/DC had to make changes to make Superman relevant.

Big disparity between the 49 critics and the 81,641 fan expectations. :)

 

The actual quality of a film and the quality we fans are all hoping for usually aren't directly related, so I'm not seeing a disparity. After the film comes out RT switches the "want to see" stat over to a percentage who "liked it"; I do expect a disparity there as that's typically the case. I'd be surprised if the "liked it" score stays so high at 97% though.

 

Here's an interesting comparison to Superman Returns. I recall the audience rating being MUCH higher than 67% back when it came out, but people have hammered it in succeeding years.

This is an important movie, and everyone is talking about it. Love it, hate it, or something in-between, people are going to want to discuss it.

 

But there are probably too many threads being created - information is being buried and repeated. And as more and more people see the movie, this trend is likely to continue.

 

 

 

Here are the current and prior threads from the past few days.

Thanks!

 

Why are some titles in italics and some not?

 

Bold/Italic are the new ones that came out after this thread.

Some people were going to say, unless you used the [John] Williams score, it’s heresy. Or unless he’s got the underpants, it’s heresy. Or the spit curl, it’s heresy.

Yeah it is!!

The critics are not liking this movie very much, and the trend is downward as more weigh in.

I keep hearing talk that if this movie does well at the box office, it's Justice League and then The Flash.

 

I really hope it does well. It's good for the comic industry; and with all the merchandising, it's not a bad thing for the economy.

 

The critic's reaction is not encouraging though.

 

:wishluck:

I am fighting the urge to create an entirely new thread every time the percentage drops a point.

Ridiculous.

 

78 is not a scientific sample.

I think there has been more threads started here about the movie than that.

How many critics do you think there are?

 

Look at Superman Returns above.

 

But you're right about the number of threads.
