Aye.
Everyone I know in the real world liked it alot, actually.

In my case, everybody I know who watched it liked it, and some even loved it. I don't know anyone who hated it. For instance, when I told my aunt and my niece, both adult women, that a lot of people on the Internet hate the movie and refer to Superman as stalkerman or deadbeat dad, they were shocked. They both said that Superman spied on Lois because he missed her that much and was curious about her new family life, and that he didn't have any type of bad intentions about it.

Also, when I asked those people if they would watch a sequel to SR, they all have said "Of course. It's Superman!" But when I asked them if they wanted to watch the new Hulk Movie, they said No because the first one was really boring and weird.

Unfortunately, it seems that WB are not willing to give Singer and SR another chance and decided to listen to the whiny fanboys.

I'm pretty sure that a Singer sequel would have been truly amazing and epic, and that more people would come to see it. Oh my SR.

It's so epic and full of subtext. It's Superman. I REALLY need to get me the poster.

The posters? They sent the flippin' DVD poster for SR.

Yeah, I heard that was happening to people, and seeing as the SR theatrical poster was the one I most wanted, I decided not to bother mailing in the offer. That and I didn't want to cut up the packaging on my DVDs.

Shoutbox

EnriqueH: It can be built on forgiving the mistakes of the past, and remembering the overall experience, which I think has been positive for most. The question is: Will individuals let go of their pride, make up and shake hands, or stay angry forever? May 28, 2015 18:20:17 GMT -5

crown: We will build a new Superman Cinema here through goodwill and respect built upon the foundation of our love of SUPERMAN and all he stands for. Jun 1, 2015 15:06:42 GMT -5

cypher85: Hey Board!! Damn it's been a long time. Just remembering the good old days. Unfortunately, I don't see this place ever picking up. And I'm not a facebook person. So even though I'm part of that group, it isn't the same. What a place this was though. Aug 15, 2017 14:51:41 GMT -5

cypher85: lol, i didn't type darn! I still think about this board, and can't believe that a Superman film (Man of Steel) was the downfall of a board dedicated to celebrating superman. Aug 15, 2017 14:53:28 GMT -5

Metallo: That should tell you how "not on the spirit of superman" it was. Aug 17, 2017 14:52:50 GMT -5
