RIP Schnepp. Had to come back to one of the first videos I watched. Love you man.
Chicken Little with you there. Been revisiting my earliest Schnepp memories. This was the first I'd ever seen Campea, Clarke, and Schnepp.
R.I.P. KING SWEATY SCHNEPP.
Same here. I was overly excited after watching Man Of Steel, and i had no one to talk to. So I went to TH-cam to watch the usual movie reviewers Jeremy Jahns, SchmoesKnow, and Chris Stuckman to see what they thought of the movie. I still felt the need to watch other reviews. That's how i ended up finding this video and the channel. Ever since then, I've followed the crew on their projects. Especially Jon Schnepp's work
RIP JON SCHNEPP
👑KING OF THE SWEATIES👑
Alba Lopez funny, because that's exactly how and why I found it. I had to find people who could articulate what I'd seen. I connected immediately with Campea and Schnepp because of their review for MoS. I'm going to miss his opinions and reviews, but especially the energy and enthusiasm he carried.
Chicken Little I miss Schnepp so much I've been watching a lot of his old video's.
Schnepp has left so much awesome video for us sweaties to scrimp up and watch! Just like a sweaty treasure! Rest well Schnepp!
I absolutely LOVED this movie!!!
John Campea owns this review. Thank you John, I would love to talk movies with you for a few hours.
*Old school Superman does not work nowadays. "Man of Steel" is what Superman needed.*
Btw MoS Superman is Badass.
Oldschool Superman does work just look at Daredevil or Captain America. People like them and they're the old school do-gooder.
btpbtpbtp by old school Sups, I mean the cliché Superman. The Boy Scout. The new generation needed a new Superman. Today people like Captain america and Daredevil because the story took a more serious tone.
Enock Blaster Matt Yeah, But Captain America is a Boyscout! Daredevil is such a good little Christian boy! They're such goody two shoes that you want to smack them in the head.
When Captain America was asked, "Do you want to kill Nazis?" His response was, "I don't to kill. I just don't like bullies." And he was so sincere and honest about it! When asked "How are we going to stop the next invasion?" his response, "Together." Optimism! Captain America is so corny, cheesy and he's such a cliche that I swear he would turn to the camera and say "Remember kids stay in school."
And there stories are as serious as Magic Zombie Ninjas and 1950's Brain-in-a-Computer technology would allow.
btpbtpbtp you're right, they're super heroes so they are good guys. But in order to make a good superman movie, they had to change a him a little.
It would've been boring to do the same Superman we know and saw a hundred times over. Don't u think ?
+btpbtpbtp The fundamental difference between Supes and Cap is that Cap wasn't always a super soldier. Superman always had superpowers. Man of Steel, imo, did a fantastic job of bringing human emotion to Supes just like Cap America: TFA did to Cap.
I'm sad I never saw Schnepp when he was alive. He seems like a great man. Also a great nerd.
Clarke Wolfe was clearly affected by this movie, that's what movies are supposed to do. It sounds like she doesn't like to be affected and or conflicted by a movie/Superman. I love the fact that we have a superhero movie that people will argue about. After the Avengers, all I did was high five everyone, it was amazing but didn't have any deep layers.
Clarke's opinion is exactly what Campea said: people are judging it based on what they expected it to be rather than what it is. And that's fine if that's what they want to do, but it's not very fair.
I've watched this movie like 20 times already and I love it to pieces..! John is right when he said that it was Zod, the terraforming machines as well as the US army with all their jets and bombs going haywire because of the terraforming machines altering gravity that destroyed Metropolis and not Kal. Most of the time it's like Zod kicks Supes and he goes crashing into a building, I mean you can't help when someone so powerful kicks you and you just stand straight over there. Also in the Smallville action sequence, it was the other giant Kryptonian that threw all those engines and destroyed the area, although I know Kal actually broke the oil refinery, but it was actually the first time he was allowed to use his power, the anger which was building for so long inside him, when someone threatened his mother it all came pouring out and that sequence was freakin EPIC..!
The only thing I didn't understand was why was Louis Lane asked by Zod to come aboard the ship. It made no sense.
The reason why they ask Lois Lane to come aboard the ship because they want to know what she knows, if she knows where the codex is because she the one that knows who he is.
The reason why Zod asked Louis to come on board was because he wanted to mentally interrogate her the same way he did to Superman. Even after Superman goes after her in the pod that's crashing to Earth, Louis says something to the extent of "I'm sorry he got inside my mind..." and Superman said "it's okay, he did the same thing to me"
***** Yes, I am a fan because it was a great movie, and it didn't deserve the bad ratings that it actually got, and I seriously don't understand all the criticism about the destruction. When two gods fight, what did you expect would happen..?
*****
I think comic books years ago have really screwed up Superman. Because of that, it was very hard back then to make a really good Superman Story. I don't think Superman is a dark character, I saw a character struggling to fit in the world because of who he is. Its a movie that we have never seen before. Touches on issues that Donner's Superman movie never touched on before. I like it when Superman doesn't talk a lot, Just keep it simple.
***** I hope they make Flash and Shazam more light-hearted characters.
I think Man of Steel is the best superman movie ever. Better than the 1978 one. Henry Cavill played a totally badass superman and that's exactly what I wanted.
He also played a pretty boring, dead note one.
just watched this film on blu-ray and its like the 15th time i'm watching this film, but before this movie and all the trailers i never cared about superman,i was a 90's kid so there wasn't much superman going around.
but this film was amazing in every way, and now superman is one of fav comic book characters and in this film they really hit home the idea of what superman is and what he should embody which i found really inspiring, this was a great way to introduce superman to a new generation kinda like me and everyone else, making superman cool again
yes me too! I used to only love Spiderman, until the Batman Arkham games came out. And then THIS MOVIE CAME OUT AND I LOVE SUPERMAN!
ahaha me too!! spiderman and X men were the comics i grew up with and movies, then when the new batman movies came out i loved them and batman!
1st time: Wow, that's great.
2nd tine: This movie is so boring. The action is what makes this movie boring. Imo, it has no replay value. 6.5/10
dauz jb the action at the end is pretty boring, i normally turn it off after he destroys the world engine
Eddie michael What ITS THE BEST PART the battle between zod and superman is one of the best duels ever put to the big screen shame on you mate
If I died I would like John Campea to read my life out to others. the way he explains movies is second to none.
All those dolts on amc talk are hacks, glad campea left.
Sandy Ban so, what were you saying again
SJCookiEzZ
Shows Campea can't solo his own show, brings along his crew. No one really cares for him. Schnepp is more interesting than him.
+Sandy Ban I care for him.
The girl in the tank-top is a buffoon with some of her ridiculous reasoning. She needs to take off that stupid, tacky, cheap-looking necklace and throw it in the trash. Also, they never touched on the absurd way in which Jonathan Kent died. THAT he died was ok, but the situation in which he did was just poorly written because he really easily could have been saved AND had Clark's secret kept at the same time.
You are a moron with...
No, actually that's all. No more details needed. :)
Mario Rodas Right back at you, twinky.
ReallyBadSeed Gasp!
Mario Rodas I know you want to make love to me, and the answer is still no.
ReallyBadSeed That obvious, huh.
Best Superman Movie Ever, and one of my favorite Superhero movies
*Whos watching this in 2017?*
I'm watching in 2009
Night Rider Right here with you
Late LATE 2017, but I'm just trying to put some things together.
(and it has nothing to do with MoS)
2018
Night Rider 2018
2020. And still my favourite superhero movie.
Same.
How good would it be in the end of Man of Steel, after Superman snaps Zod's neck; After Kal-El screams he stares at his trembling hands, terrified not that he killed someone, but because he lost control. How easy it was. Lois comes to console him, he shoots up in the air and Superman goes missing for months after putting himself in exile somewhere on earth because he feels guilt. The city blames him for trashing everything in the fight. And you see Lex funding the rebuilding of Metropolis, along with his business partner, Bruce Wayne (Ben Afleck reveal), Kal-El somewhere in exile meeting up with Amazons, amazed by this God of a man. And the movie ends. Something like that. I think that would be so awesome. But thats just me.
Coming back here from 2020 collider /MovieTalk died today RIP
I used to hate The Avengers with a passion but John Campea's analysis of Man of Steel and why it was an amazing film is making me reconsider my hate towards The Avengers. I rewatched The Avengers again keeping John's ideas in my mind and I actually like the movie more. I wish Man of Steel haters would do the same.
Why did you hate the Avengers?
Nathan U
i think MoS is hands down, the best superman movie out so far. the christopher reeves superman was good, but it never showed super man's raw power. with MoS showing superman's power to an extent shown more than the previous movies? now when he holds back in the sequels, people have an idea of how much superman will be holding back.
people say MoS is not good cos he wrecks so much dmg around him, this is the first time superman has fought some one on his power level, some one who was trained in the military, superman is not going to be able to make sure all the buildings around him are going to be intact lol.
BUT! i do agree that we didnt need the tentacle thing lol.... god knows what snyder was thinking :D
xyr3s If they go that direction with the sequel, then great. But if they choose to ignore the implications of the needless destruction that occurred in MoS, then I think it's a misrepresentation of the character. My problem isn't the destruction per say, it's the scale and reaction or lack there of from said Superman.
Nathan U
i think the sequel will take off from where mos ended, lex will step in to donate millions to the reconstruction of metropolis. he will be like "thank god for superman we are saved, even though he caused so much collateral damage, which i will help repair even though it's not my fault at all". which would make lex look like a good samaritan while slightly undermining MoS. or at least something along those lines :p
I'd go as far as to say Man of Steel is a bad movie. I liked it when it came out, but as I thought about it more and re-watched it, I came away thinking it wasn't a good movie.
I agree totally with john. this was a masterpiece, it was intellectual, and beautiful. it's a movie that took itself seriously and while, yes there were some problems, but every movie has them. yes, it think critics and most people had there heads up their asses or it just went over their heads
+jadon smith man of steel smart? dude this movie is the most dumbed down corny schlock
Observer Alternative you obviously weren't paying attention
jadon smith yeah i was...but the movie was completely stupid.
It's funny that she got precisely all backwards what the pa' kent and ma' kent segments are. I'm kinda impresed and shocked. Holy shit man... it's amazing what can make you the "no paying atention" of what you're seeing.
The girl and shep nail it with their commentaries, loved them, they speaked MY mind amazingly enough :O
It was great coming back to see this review of Man of Steel. This is the show that introduced me into the movie fans community where hundreds of people speak their opinions about everything in the world of movies 😁
Jonathan Camacho same!🤓
Watching this during the break of the 24 hour AMC movie marathon! I miss Clarke... :(
I didn't know Clarke wolf got fired for giving man of steel a bad review
What? Thats what I heard but shes a CRITIC why would they do that she just giving her opinion, like everybody else. But where did you hear that?
Superman kills get over it people, it had to be done.
People who read comics know that Superman has killed people before, in Adventure comics he kills General Zod and 3 other kryptonians using Kryptonite.
This review is so important to me and I know that so many people got in to John Campea and his crew because of this review. I love MoS but I did understand at the time Clarke Wolf's point. She was right all along but I believe that this 3 people right here represents how most people felt about this movie. Some love it. Some like it and some flat out hate it.
Did the girl really get fired for calling out a mediocre movie for what it was?
are we even sure she got fired at all though?
she probably did even though she was right about the film and having him kill i hated that cause superman never kills he finds ways not to kill
Chris Littleton read ur comics sir, superman killed 3 kryptonians from another dimension. They had laid waste to that dimensions earth killed every human and vowed to do the same to supermans earth, after superman used their kryptonite to render them powerless, they swore they would get their powers back and kill everyone . Superman being put in that position decided to use another color kryptonite to kill them. So superman has killed.
The end.
Chris Littleton Also.. What do you think happened at the end of Superman 2 when Non, Ersa, and Zod fell, was pushed and dropped into the icy depths of the Fortress of Solitude? Heck, they had no powers; so they were even more defenseless than Zod in MOS. One could say that Donner's Superman was even more cruel. Not to mention when Superman goes back and beats the crap out of the trucker in the café? People that don't think Superman will kill, don't know Superman.
@@theredhood5863 if you had actually read the comics, superman does in-fact kill. He's killed before.
I thought the movie was boring but with great special effects
ive never really liked superman before this film, he was a really dorky wierd looking superhero that was just way to overpowered to be intresting and now he is this really cool superhero that we can relate to and watch grow
How can you say it's too violent. If two insanely powered beings fought it out obviously it's absolutely impossible to avoid violence and snapping a neck would be one of the few ways to win the fight
I miss old John Campea before he sold out back when he actually had balls.
Wolfe's diatribe on Johnathan Kent's message to Clark is all wrong.
His life lesson was not "Hide who you are forever and I'll die to reinforce that."
It was "I love you soo much, I'd die to keep you safe from anything and everything- including alienation from the entire human race."
This supports the Can I or Can I not trust humanity? message, in that of all the evidence presented to him throughout his life, Johnathan Kent's self sacrifice is the deciding factor.
I disagree. I personally felt that Jonathan's character was thrown under the bus. I can see what they were going for but Jonathan came off like a guy who didn't care whether his kid was a positive or negative change just that he would be a change. Even when I divorce myself from my prior knowledge of the character, I still come away thinking that he has a shallow characterization and is just there to spout an idea rather than be a character. And this is not coming from someone who dislikes the film because it's different. I came out liking the film and Jonathan, but as time went on it and I thought about it the film and after multiple rewatches the film fell apart for me.
Lady: "I did not have fun in Man of Steel"
Everyone: "Wow, you're so insane"
I agree with the previous comment, i dont know what that woman saw when she watched the film. Great review from schnepp and campea, very well rounded take on the film.
No wonder that Clarke chick isn't on movie news anymore. She's got no idea.
R.I.P. Jon Schnepp..... 😢😢😢❤❤
Zod's "You are not alone message" only looked creepy because Kryptonian video technology is not compatible with human video technology. That is why it is pixellated and keeps repeating itself...
Clarke I think was one of those people that Campea was talking about with their heads way up their arse. movie was amazing! 10/10
That amc opening just got to me.
R.i.p. Schnepp
I liked the movie. It was a modern Superman for a modern audience. But my first thought when the movie was over "We are lucky that those guys are just fiction." The destruction of Metropolis was so huge and humans were like ants under boot. Superman was just so detached. It was gods fighting and humans crushed in the middle.
Woah, she is crazy.
Like John would say, more power to you! I enjoy it a lot. :)
+Nate B-Pro I find it funny how people say it's DC it will be dark. They aren't that dark. In fact they are the lighter of the two franchises in the comics. Most of their films have been lighter. I think Superman should be light. It was best said by Patton Oswald "It only works if Batman is the only dark brooding one".
+dragonrings14 There's a high difference between "dark and brooding" and "serious with character conflicts and real consequences", MoS wasn't dark at all it was a serious take on the character with issues that play a huge part in that character's life physically and mentally.
CRAZYGUNDAMOTAKU Did I say that MoS was dark? I also don't think the things that happened in MoS were very serious or realistic. But none of that matters because it wasn't a happy film. There weren't moments where you felt uplifted and that there was hope for humanity. That is what Superman should be and they failed to deliver that. Instead they gave us a depressing backstory, a brooding adult and a plot where not a single lesson is learnt. As a kid who was worried that being found out would lead to the world fearing him maybe the best thing to do is not destroy an entire city and murder people in cold blood. Sure he saved the day but now people are going to hate and fear him more than ever. He is meant to be the smartest person on the planet... He should have figured that one out.
dragonrings14 Actually you did but moreso I was responding to the remark you quoted.As far as the happy uplifting etc goes it wasn't meant to be any of that especially on the first day of the character where he wasn't even technically Superman yet.It's called an "origin story" for a reason and even comicbook Superman (which I read alot of) wasn't always a symbol that ppl aspired to be which would include Superman himself, that's what he eventually became though.Btw to clarify he wasn't worried about being "found out" his parents were, Clark's struggle is moreso of a morality one and one about finding his place in the world.He didn't murder or destroy a city nor is he the smartest person or the planet either and his origin IS a depressing one, his body may be kryptonian but mentally he's very much human and even if he's looked to as a god he's not (read some comics and clear those misconceptions).
Clarke.... I was a kid, and I LOVED that move when I was 12 years old.
Clarke knows everything she's just perfectness. Honestly I cannot stand to look at this idiot
Campea: Man you're so insane.
YES!!! Lol, my sentiments exactly.
9/10? : '(. You my nigga.
***** its for superman fans that arent little bitches
LOL
+Random Gamer I agree
is it just me or are a lot of superhero movies today that are critically hated approached as genre movies first, then as superhero movies. the amazing spider-man, man of steel, green hornet, batman forever, superman returns...
I think the possible explanation about why General Zod can't perform HD resolution of His threat is because Kryptonian technology is base on Liquid-Geo on their display unlike Human TV screen. He broadcast before enter the earth, Live streaming can bee seen around the world with different language, You had to assume that is kinda hard to converting to different tech and live streaming in the same time
This was my first video seeing campea and schnepp. Rip schnepp
I fucking love man of steel !!
"The character I know and love" Clearly knows nothing of the character due to her explanation
“It’s the most controversial thing in the movie,” legendary Warner Bros. animator Bruce Timm said when a fan asked what he thought of the controversial ending to 'Man of Steel' at the New York Comic-Con. He says that when he first saw the script he knew that it would be controversial, but he didn't know how much outcry there would be. “I don’t really have a problem with it. I actually thought it worked.” He added, “I understand that Superman has to have that no killing policy, even though I think it’s outdated.” The amount of destruction during the climax is definitely the most controversial/debated topic surrounding the movie. Many fans were torn. Some fans are okay with the amount of destruction, while it bothered others. “It didn't bug me either,” longtime Superman group editor Mike Carlin told the fan. “We actually did something similar in the comic books. My only problem with it is that if Superman was going to kill General Zod, why he didn’t do it sooner before a couple city blocks were destroyed.” The story in the comics he is referring to is Exile in Space. In the story-arc, the murder of Zod was followed by a long tale about the consequences-what killing someone meant for Superman, what it did to him, and how people reacted to a Superman who was willing to kill. “I’m still trying to figure out what those people were still doing in the train station with the whole city being destroyed,” joked DC Co-Publisher Dan DiDio. Later Bruce Timm said, “It seemed like a really, fresh modern interpretation of Superman. That was my big takeaway from the movie.
rotten tomatoes gave MOS a 56% they said Man of Steel provides exhilarating action and spectacle to overcome its detours into generic blockbuster territory.
In the Christopher Reeve film, Superman realizes the destruction they made, so he conceded and ran away for the sake of the innocents. MOS simply just didn't care... he just killed Zod because danger to innocents was pretty much shoved in his face. That's why the 70s film is so much better. That one had something MOS didn't have.... HEART.
Best superheromovie & best moviereview ever. :)
ahh the infamous man of steel review
Correction, i said that happened a bit in Metropolis, obviously meant Smallville. But again, you & others speak of his acts, i speak of his heart, i dont mind the destruction. My friend said "it makes it more difficult to buy he cares for these 4 while he was completely oblivious who might get hurt while fighting. In Superman II his heart was THE key element, and it would've been nice to see that at the most crucial moment, it would've given more layer to the character to keep that key element.
The message was that at that point of time they wasn't ready for him yet .. It was too immature .. Look at the argument .. He also didn't want to be the cause of sups exposing his identity .. I'm tired of everything being directed towards kids . That's why we got that weak ass Disney Tim Allen Christmas iron man 3 .. Because they didn't wanna add his drinking problem so they gave him PTS ..
great review by campea and schneep but this woman was so fucking annoying she ruined this for me......but anyway
i fucking love this movie it was spectacular the krypton part was beautiful the technology that the kryptonians are using like the ships and the suits and armors is beautifully done the music is great the story is great the fights are insanely henry and crowe are great
faora actress was badass and shannon was a fucking psycho I LOVE HIM great villain maybe he is #1 for me now...my top comic book villains are a.molina spider man__h.ledger the dark knight__kevin bacon x men first class and luke goss hellboy golden army......i must say faora now is in my top 10
winter soldier and guardians of the galaxy also so awesome and i cant wait for dawn of justice i have said this before ben afleck will be the best batman remember my words
She's annoying to you because she's a female and disagrees with you. This movie was no Dark Knight.
Jade Tippens
she is annoying to me because she is annoying to me, that is it.....not because she is a woman...
except for amy rose (and i dont hate her) i love all the girls on amc movie talk, and i miss krisily. you are rude so leave me the fuck alone.....i am done talking to you
JovanFB Well thats purely opinion not factual, and I was never starting a conversation with you.
Jade Tippens bro she's a bitch
Christian Vincent Sis, and why is that?
Did she really got fired for her comments about man of steel?
i hope so lol
Lol
I remember when the whole ending was done when he just randomly got a job at daily planet and people were mad because they couldnt understand how he got a job at a respectable newspaper without job history or a degree but people tend to forget, there was a 16 year time gap from when his dad died, and when he was on the ship, he could have gone to school and worked on the farm to honor his father's memory, then two years prior to the start of the film he went on his journey of self discovery and used an invesitgative journalism background to stay hidden while he was searching, and meeting Lois Lane inspired him to use the daily planet as his cover, and to be closer to Lois.
I came back to this review in memory of John Schnepp. R.I.P king of the sweaties, you will be missed!
Bye Clarke!
Watching this in 2018. RIP Jon Schnepp 😔
superman kills zod (while defenceless) in superman 2 and has a smile on his face while he does it. yet NOBODY has a problem with it. but he save one family and everyone is in outrage.
Well said, bro. I also felt the film lacked the 'is it a bird, is it a plane' moment. There was no real first interaction between this man with super powers and the general public. Shame.
"Zod, have you ever tried ice cream?"
I died, that was beautiful.
This movie was an insult to superman fans everywhere. I love superman and this movie did everything that it could to NOT embrace anything that made Superman awesome.
This movie is essentially Superman, what would you have preferred? 1940s Superman?
More like an insult to people who dont really know much about the character!
Gothamite1999 No, a GOOD superman.
the movie is more enjoyable in my second viewing
and i think it might be the camera work and soundtrack during fight scenes that have annoyed people
or people are simply bored by the flashback? the flashback scenes were pretty touching to me
***** campea Clarke Wolfe is gorgeous. Seriously just adding her to your show would bump up your subscribers let alone viewers.
People complain that Superman is a power fantasy. That he's a boy scout, that he's not realistic in it's approach to how a world should be affected by Kryptonian invaders. This Superman is none of those. Above all I felt this world went for realism of the powers of Superman and Krypton if they came to Earth. It wouldn't be a guy blowing over a truck. Superman might have moral fiber and leave the city so theres no damage to it but that doesn't mean Zod wouldn't just level the city for him being a pussy.
This isn't comic book Superman, it's not 70/80's Superman. Its a 'what if'. What if, these people with these powers we idolize actually came to our planet to fight a civil war. it's an excellent **ALTERNATIVE** take of Superman. Seriously. I emphasize alternative. It's not the start and end of the comic books people have grew up on, but it is a fairly realistic view of the dream we had. Apparently people just preferred the dream to the reality. That's the real power fantasy,
I LOVE YOU CLARKE WOLFE!!!!! Where the hell did she go?
i get clark is entitled to her own opinion but i don't see how the message Johnathan Kent had for Clark was you can never be who you are through the whole movie he is saying when the time is right not you can never be your self he just said you have to hide who you are cause the people of earth are not ready yet. i did not see the message of him saying never
What kind of "fun" were you looking for? I thought it was a fun movie. Seeing Krypton was awesome, and the "Flight" scene was really fun to watch. Not to mention the fight scenes between Kal and the Kryptonians.
after clark wolfe dissed the movie she never appeared on this show again
what are you implying?
Great discussions. Really enjoyed listening to it. So many points I want to point out but I don't I have the time or space to tell it but, a little interesting fact for you guys to ponder on, Lois Lane originally had red hair. I think at the time when Superman was created, it was popular/trendy for actresses to have red hair. And so, Lois Lane was modeled on an actress named Lola Lane. Not saying that's the reason they put Amy Adam's in with red hair but I wish people just shut up about it.
3 minutes in and already John has lost credibility. It is one thing to say you like a movie but it is another to insult other critics. You can have different opinions.
5 minutes in Schnep has got me on his side by admitting Avengers is still the best superhero movie.
15 minutes in Clarke has won me over completely. She hit the nail on the head. This wasn't Superman as a character. It wasn't fun either.
20 minutes in John is getting better by being honest with whats wrong with it. But best movie of the year isn't even close to accurate.
30 minutes in I think John managed to watch a completely different film to me. He sounds like someone who wasn't a fan of Superman. But then he shocks me and says Avengers is better than MoS and TDK. Good to know he isn't totally insane.
40 minutes in and I'm starting to doubt if there is any oxygen in the room. John is about to say that the fight scenes were done well in MoS... They looked straight out of Matrix 3...
WRONG HIS OPINION LOL!!!!!!
Robin v. Persie Who? John's opinion? Because I'd agree.
dragonrings14 Far enough but i don't care what eveyone saids the movie was still superamazing even with it's flaws. ;)
Robin v. Persie Okay but as a DC fan and a Superman fan I just could not like this movie. Watch Superman: Doomsday, Superman: Unbound or Superman Vs The Elite to see the real Superman in action.
dragonrings14 1. The movie was origin story superman just started off of being an superhero but portraild diffently(an better written origin story then TASM 1).
2. Those are animated movies, NOT live action that doesn't count and PLEASE don't bring up those outdated Ghris Reeves movies and Boringman Returns(i have nothing against animated movies i like them but i perfer live action movies).
3. There is no such thing like an REAL or true Superman, Superman in comics and movies is over the years allways written and portraild DIFFERENTLY the pending on which writter or film director.
4. I'm DC/Marvel/Superman fan as well but i never asked for seeing the SAME Superman over and over again and again becauce things get an little bit BORING here or there and i find every version of Superman in comics or films acceptable even with his flaws and so long he is not as boring.
5. Again i don't care what eveyone saids, if you don't like the movie that's fine but for me it was superamazing, I 100% agree what John just said and disagree what Clarke just said, Zack Shyder has done an great job with MoS but he can not please eveybuddy such as yourself(no disrepect mate i accept your opinion. ;) )
And 6. where can i watch or find those animated movies?
Wow Clark Wolfe gets it 100%.
Gets what? I still don't know what her issue was. She didn't articulate it well. All I heard was "this is not MY Superman."
They also forget that this is the first movie. So alot of what we know Superman to be wouldn't be in the film.
Man of Steel: Best comic book movie of 2013 and best DC movie since Dark Knight.
And by the way..Miss Clark is confused and self contradictory...I don't agree with you at all....and i don't think you agree with yourself too....you contradict your own opinion every other comment....like babling without knowing what you feel....
same. like literally the exact same, watched it 3 times and got more friends and family to go with me each time. Everybody I went with loved it as well
Meh...Schnepp and that Clarke girl just wants a Superman movie where Supes is saving peoples butts and then some action scenes with the final boss...Sheesh take off your nostalgia glasses for a moment...
Wow this Clarke girl truly didn't understand the movie. Jonathan Kent asked Clark to hide his secret identity until the world is ready to accept him...So when is the world ready? When Zod starts to invade Earth...
That chick really made me facepalm....
naaaaah, man of steel is not the best film of the year :\
naaaaah, it isn't
Why do some people read a comment and put words in your mouth... learn to read... i never said it was the best film of the year, i said for me it's one of the best movies of 2013.
and what "words" did i "put in your mouth" may i ask?
i learned to read a long time ago thank you, i was just dissagreeing with your comment too...that's all.
That girl Clarke is really bad at reviewing movies.
I hate that girl
Same
Man of steel does have a lot of heart the flashbacks of young clark were great showing his struggles with powers people and responsibility he has at such a young age not fighting back when bullies picked on him knowing he can kill them with a one blow or when he saves the kids on the bus or when he trying to destroy the world engine but cant because of the weakening effects on him he gathers enough strength to fly up the the gravity hammering down on him and destroys the engine is awesome showing who he is. As for killing Zod he had no choice and realizing what he has done he yells out in pain, this know sets up his no killing code
This movie is definitely not on par with The Dark Knight Rises and certainly not with The Dark Knight. Not in any respect. I know people don't want a long origin story, but if you are going to do an origin story, make it detailed. If you don't want to do that, have the hero already be at his peak with 1-2 mentions/flashbacks like they did in Tim Burton's Batman. Don't make a middle of the road origin story. Batman Begins was gripping because it taught us deeper things about the character. Man of Steel was shorter in origin story, but was ultimately very boring because it didn't flesh anything out. I HATED the dialogue between Superman and Lois before they kissed. And I also really hated when Diane Lane's character looks at the barn when being questioned about what her son arrived in. I like the parents (if they have pivotal roles in the story) to be good, and to have an element of toughness, too. No good mother would give that away of their child. Plus, the way that whole scene played out was just so typical and lame. It was lazy storytelling. I took the whole Jonathan Kent not letting Clark save him was that he felt it was his time and he didn't want his son tampering too much with nature taking its course.
Man of Steel was a awesome Movie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My impression changed greatly after I gave it a second chance when Comic Con trailer for BvS hit. Really great movie. Not perfect, but it a really great start for DCEU.
wtf? the movie WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
zack snyder is one of the most talented film maker
I'm so happy this Clarke woman is no longer on your team.
I love Man of Steel. It may have flaws but really any movie could be argued to have flaws. Films are subjective and everyone has different views. A flaw in one movie could be a pro for someone else.
Man of Steel, 4.5 of 5.
my problem with man of steel is
1st problem is the fact that Lois Lane had to be on the ship. I mean seriously she didn't need to be on the ship.
2nd problem is all the killing.
3rd problem is that scene when earth dad sacrificed his life to keep sups cover. That was the most unrealistic tornado i have ever seen. seriously if that was a real tornado they wouldn't be able to stand especially that close to a tornado.
4th is when sups was fighting zodd why didn't sups relocate the fight. And like fight in the desert. I mean come on they went to outer space and landed at the exact same country the exact same state the exact same town and a few miles from were they were fighting
Glad that chick got fired.
You'll never be gone Schnepp I will keep watching your videos as if you never left.
It honestly feels like people jump on the hate MoS bandwagon because that's the popular thing to do. I didn't love it, but it was a lot of fun to watch.
I'd have hated them if they did a jolly good fellow superman. Been there done that
Max Landis' "Regarding Clark" video best explains my gripes with the Man Of Steel movie.
I think John,Clarke,and Scnepp all have very good points. Personally I enjoyed the film.
