Man of Steel/World War Z

[Kagatob]

Looks like Man of Steel fell to 70. After reading a bunch of the negative reviews it's apparent that the bulk of them are critical of the movie solely because of the fact that they can't get over the movies from 35 years ago and that this new movie dares to differentiate from the style of those movies.

Still excited to see it Thursday night. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Which I find interesting, because that's the same reason Superman Returns was such an epic fail. They tried to give them a movie exactly like the iconic ones of years past and found that we've outgrown our taste for that style of campy storytelling. I think Man of Steel will be a breath of fresh air in a franchise that's gotten the shaft for a long time.

In case you didn't know, Superman is a comic book hero. Where do you think the original movies came from? Man of Steel ruined the actual Superman story. Has nothing to do with the cheesy Superman movies from 70s/80s.
