unlabelledView post →James Gunn’s ‘SUPERMAN’ is now the highest grossing solo Superman movie at the domestic box office, passing ‘MAN OF STEEL’ Read our review: bit.ly/SupesDF
unlabelledView post →A quick question for anybody who wants to answer, just because I'm trying to get my creative juices flowing... What's your favorite movie or movies that was a box office flop? I'm not talking about like "Man of Steel made $700 million rather than $1 billion," I'm talking about movies that bombed.
unlabelledView post →I read the Daily Beast review of Superman that trashed the film. They said Henry Cavill in Man of Steel was more compelling and charismatic and in an earlier review said Sinners was trash. He also didn't love Krypto. ....i think we shouldn't read too heavily into this one.
unlabelledView post →I'm brand new here, so a few introductory thoughts. This account believes: 1) Rings of Power > House of the Dragon 2) Man of Steel is the most underrated superhero movie 3) Grizzlies > errbody 4) Tolkien > Sanderson > Martin 5) Arrival might be the best movie in history 6) Aquaman is sublime
unlabelledView post →Man of Steel was the first time I remember being shocked by not liking a movie in theaters. Batman v. Superman I expected to dislike. Hellboy (2019) was the first time I felt tempted to walk out of a movie. The Predator was so bad I bought a bottle of vodka and drank half of it on an empty stomach
unlabelledView post →BTW, satire aside, the "Superman" movie was really fantastic. I'm not traditionally a big Superman fan. More of a Marvel guy, TBH. But it's a blast, and by far the most fun and funny and generally joyful Man of Steel movie I've seen.
unlabelledView post →Man of Steel. I love Superman and the main thing I learned from that movie is that Zack Snyder hates Superman and resented having to make a movie about him
unlabelledView post →Just watched Superman (2025). ☺️ In addition to David Corenswet’s absolutely charming portrayal of the Man of Steel, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific and Krypto’s unstoppable, joyful energy were highlights of the film for me. #Superman #DavidCorenswet #Superman2025 #dccomics #film
unlabelledView post →Saw Soup or Man Definitely the best Superman film I've seen in a theater. Easily clears both Returns and Man of Steel, it's somehow the least insane James Gunn movie, but also the most comic booky. a great showcase of what this character is all about. Had a good time.
unlabelledView post →The first 11 minutes or so of Zach Snyder's DAWN OF THE DEAD is maybe the best zombie movie. Just like the trailer for MAN OF STEEL is the best Superman movie.
unlabelledView post →Saw Superman. Cried. Laughed. Squeed. Cheered. Laugh cried. Robuts. Giant monsters. A good boi. Kindness. Humanity. It is a delightful and slightly ridiculous film, and I have a new favorite Superman. A wonderful love letter to the Man of Steel.
unlabelledView post →It’s not a great movie but during my screening of Man Of Steel, after Superman snapped Zod’s neck a man yelled out “It’s ok Superman! You had to!”
unlabelledView post →I really enjoy both Man of Steel and the new #Superman movie. #Corenswet is fantastic, and so is #Cavill. As an adult, Cavill’s darker take is always cool to me, but both versions have their strengths. Hey internet, one doesn’t have to be bad for the other to be good. 😊
unlabelledView post →Man of Steel remains my least favorite movie of all time. It is competently made, but malevolent.
unlabelledView post →Man of Steel is the Superman movie that Lex Luthor would make.
unlabelledView post →Just saw the newest Superman movie. As someone who really enjoyed Man of Steel and Batman V Superman I can say the new movie is REALLY fun and I recommend you give it a go. Best character was by far Lex Luthor. He may not have stolen 40 cakes, but he certainly stole the movie
unlabelledView post →People don't have nearly enough contempt and disrespect for me around here so I'm going to liveskeet MAN OF STEEL, a movie that I actually really like 🖖
unlabelledView post →James Gunn’s ‘Superman’ is now the highest grossing solo Superman movie at the domestic box office, passing ‘Man of Steel’!
unlabelledView post →BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE was released 9 years ago this week. Zack Snyder’s follow-up to Man Of Steel, and the first feature film to include DC’s Big Three together, the story behind the scenes is as monstrous as Doomsday… 1/51
unlabelledView post →The MAN OF STEEL trailer is the best Superman movie.
unlabelledView post →Superman erased the stench of the Snyderverse and Man of Steel. THIS is the new Superman. THIS is a great movie. Entertaining as hell, I need sequels!! Go see it!
unlabelledView post →Cleveland goes Hollywood with #Superman out now in theaters! See how our city was transformed into Metropolis after the Man of Steel came back to the birthplace of the character last summer to film in the Land! See how many Cleveland landmarks you can recognize!
unlabelledView post →Well bad news y’all I just rewatched Man of Steel andddd turns out it’s a bad movie. Whoopsie.
unlabelledView post →Kinda gives the game away that conservative "true fans" are bashing the new Superman, an extremely "for the real ones movie" that gives time to mr terrific & fucking guy gardner, because its not Man of Steel, a movie by a guy who admitted he didn't like or get superman and was going off cliff notes
unlabelledView post →This is not the first person who (I assume) thinks I’m talking about the new Superman movie. I was saying Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel from 2013 is not a great movie. Different movie, I can assure you I’m not maga lmao 💀
unlabelledView post →Sometimes, I have a hard time enjoying a film because I hear such ecstatic reviews and then I am disappointed that movie doesn't blow me away. To avoid this, I prepped for watching Superman by watching a bunch of Man of Steel clips so I could compare it to a much worse film
unlabelledView post →Superman fucking rocked, holy shit. What a fantastic movie. THIS has been the Superman movie I've wanted for years. A massive improvement from Man of Steel and Batman v Superman
unlabelledView post →One more thing. Fuck the fanboys (and they are always boys) shitting on the new Superman movie. While I enjoyed the spectacle of Snyder's Man of Steel, this is the Supes that we need right now.
unlabelledView post →Of course we have a DVD section, dear! You can pick out any movie you want, there's no bad choices... *The kangaroo's tail makes a jagged zig zag as a Man of Steel DVD is presented.* .... *Gently takes it like its radioactive and replaces it with Superman 2025 from their pouch* 'Cept that one...
unlabelledView post →Watchmen? Bomb. Ga'Hoole? Bomb. Sucker Punch? Bomb. Man of Steel? Disappointment. BvS? 40 years in the making and lost to the third movie of Thor.
unlabelledView post →it’s no Man of Steel trailer. it will almost certainly be a better movie than Man of Steel. but still.
unlabelledView post →Watching Man of Steel for the first time in a decade and god this is such a weird movie. It’s full of interesting little bits that don’t really fit Superman adaptationslly, but in a vacuum I don’t think its bad per se?
unlabelledView post →Breaking News: The maker of the new Superman movie is suing the Trump administration for photoshopping a kiddie diddler's head on the Man of Steel.
unlabelledView post →The late Christopher Reeve as Superman. There is no denying that Reeve’s Superman is genuinely THE definitive film version of the Man of Steel with his kindness and humility. God rest his kind soul.
unlabelledView post →Now I put on Man of Steel and this movie is full of stuff MAGA loves (eugenics, not helping people, dying in front of your kid for very stupid ideological reasons).
unlabelledView post →Just watched the SUPERMAN trailer and I'm hopeful. MAN OF STEEL was such a misdirected slop of film, that I wasn't sure the character could be brought back so soon; but Gunn shows heart where Snyder has emptiness, wonder where Snyder has repetition, and a theme where Snyder resorts to rote copying.
unlabelledView post →He really GUARDIANSed up the Man of Steel. Undeniably a James Gunn movie, for better or worse. Works way more than it doesn't. The dog rules.
unlabelledView post →"Man of Steel was a film by Zack Snyder. It was...controversial." "That's it? You're a Superman fan and all you have to say about Man of Steel is that it was 'controversial'?" "It was trying to be...realistic." "Holy s*** you are an alien."
unlabelledView post →Despite what the woke-screeching chudtubers say on youtube: Superman (2025) is the most successful Superman movie ever made. It surpassed Man of Steel (2013) weeks ago. screenrant.com/james-gunn-s...
unlabelledView post →I am putting myself through MAN OF STEEL in preparation for the new one and OOOOOF this movie… bizarre emphasis on Kal-El being the first naturally conceived Kryptonian in centuries. Why drag eugenics into my Superman movie
unlabelledView post →New blog post: thoughts on James Gunn's Superman, a film that makes some interesting choices - in its structure, and in the way it responds to Man of Steel - but which does not entirely make a person out of its Superman. wrongquestions.blogspot.com/2025/07/rece...
unlabelledView post →I can now rank every Superman movie except the new one 3>girl>2>1>4>Returns>Man of Steel I’m sure I’ll elaborate on this on the podcast.
unlabelledView post →Snyder said they couldn’t get the red underwear to look good for MAN OF STEEL and I was like “well there’s what I’m talking about, you’re the wrong guy to be making a Superman movie”
unlabelledView post →I know I’m a bit late to the party, but I just watched James Gunn’s Superman and wow, what an incredible superhero film! After 12 long years since Man of Steel, we finally have another solo Superman movie, and it makes me wonder why Hollywood waited so long. Superman deserves more films like this.
unlabelledView post →That whole series of movies was so weird with each subsequent movie as a defensive response to the last (Batman v Superman addressing complaints that Man of Steel was too destructive, Justice League being quippier to address BvS being too dour)
unlabelledView post →here’s hoping the new Superman movie gives us as many gratuitous shirtless moments as Man of Steel did…
unlabelledView post →ScreenRant is proud to debut an exclusive first-look image from James Gunn’s #Superman movie! David Corenswet’s Man of Steel stands tall in the Fortress of Solitude alongside Krypto the Super-Dog. In theaters July 11. screenrant.com/superman-mov...
unlabelledView post →Case in point. A Snyderverse-tolerant comics artist quote-tweeted this to say "Man of Steel made a gazillion dollars too, of course." It was the ninth-highest grossing movie of the year—not the decade, that one year—which is not where a Superman movie should be. Stop lying!
unlabelledView post →It’s been fascinating watching the discussion surrounding the new Superman film with people trying to act like Man of Steel was a better film. I watched both. I remember the reception when MoS was in theaters. Everyone loved Cavill as Superman but nobody liked that writing this is so revisionist
unlabelledView post →I watched the 2017 Justice League movie last night for the first time. Not as bad as I thought it might be. Certainly not the worst super hero movie. Still haven't seen Man of Steel. It's amazing how not having to pay for a big screen outing can temper a movie experience. :)
unlabelledView post →A Superman double feature at @flaminghydra.com today! First, I interrogate the politics of the Man of Steel. Then: an all-star podcast I the new Superman movie. Check it out!
unlabelledView post →Just seeing Man of Steel. Nothing went wrong with the film or anything, unless we count that my wife didn't want to leave when I was ready to tap out because I hated it so much
unlabelledView post →BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE was released 10 years ago today. Zack Snyder’s follow-up to Man Of Steel, and the first feature film to include DC’s Big Three together, the story behind the scenes is as monstrous as Doomsday… 1/51
unlabelledView post →Guys, it doesn't matter if you like Superman 2025 the most or Man of Steel the most....because we can ALL agree Superman Returns is the ACTUAL worst Superman movie.
unlabelledView post →Even if James Gunn’s Superman isn’t all I hope, I’m still just happy that they’re doing a film about the Man of Steel that doesn’t look like it was filmed in fucking grayscale.
unlabelledView post →A special effects miniature for longshots of the flying Christopher Reeve as the Man Of Steel during the filming of 1978’s “Superman The Movie”.
unlabelledView post →Your precious Snyder film Man of Steel had huge assistance from the US military. Just saying. There's a reason my sister has always said self awareness is healthy. But you clearly wouldn't listen to her.
unlabelledView post →Good day for the film section at @avclub.com, with new features about: - The filmography of Kiyoshi Kurosawa - Superman vs. Man Of Steel - A doc that dunks on loser transphobe op-ed columnists
unlabelledView post →Just by going "fuck your feelings" to that crowd, we gotten a fantastic Superman movie that we desperately been wanting after Man of Steel.
