Superman 3 (with Richard Pryor) had him infected with bad Kryptonite. :)

Terrible movie, btw.

Anyhow, Superman NEEDS to show anger on a Wrath level, otherwise there is no "human" element to the character.

Early in production It was said he at one point would behave like an "angry god." If I were Zod I'd get a lead-lined titanium jock strap & cup.

Oh god, finally, epic all out superpower battle. It's something the comic and all the superman animated movies do so well, it's about time a movie did this to.

I think what he meant was it needs to be easier to suspend disbelief. In every Superman movie it's been "hey, this God has turned up and we're just going to trust him and stay out of his way."

I'd like to see a more sympathetic look at Lex. See him as someone who says "Look, why are we trusting him? We've put so much faith in him that we barely fend for ourselves. What if he leaves?"

I find it quite interesting seeing Michael Shannon in this, having watched him so much in Boardwalk Empire, it seems really odd!

Yes, Michael Shannon is awesome! He's probably the best actor in this new superman movie! He does the crazy maniac role so well!

:laugh: :woot: :D :rofl:

My goodness! They keep raising the bar with each new TV spot and trailer. "The Fate of Your Planet" trailer is my favourite one so far. I can't wait to see how Superman deals with General Zod and the other Kryptonians. Faora's line gave me the chills: "You will not win. For every human you save, we will kill a million more."

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
