His Dawn of the Dead remake is his best movie.

See @avclub-17a9d213adc80dfca5544bde21b4ce41:disqus , I don't think they could have used that kind of Clark performance Reeve gave in this more 'mature' take on the character and not have it look too cartoony though.

It assumes II happened, because there's so many plot points that could only make sense if II happened.
III and IV it doesn't reference.

We checked with the focus groups and middle America found Moses too Jewish.

I wouldn't call it a tragedy, I'd say weeding out the gene pool.

Yawn…

That's hardly their fault, but true. Hell that first Stone Temple Pilots was like a Pearl Jam cover band.

Sheesh man, lighten the hell up. You depress even me.

Because they smell like granola, incense and patchouli.

Yeah exactly. It's saying 'hey, I wish I could do better, but I guess I should try and love you regardless'.

Yeah Kidder nailed hard-bitten reporter and also someone who turns into a schoolgirl around Superman effortlessly.
Bosworth just seemed fucking angry at worst and mildly pissed off the rest of the time. 
I get it, she's pissed Superman left town, but they completely failed to show well that she was using that to try and…

"I'm Chris Hansen and tonight on To Catch a Super Predator…"

Or if you use it that often, modify it slightly. Slow down the tempo and use the variations to create mood.
The full bombast should be for moments of amazing heroics, for when you want the audience to cheer.

There is a layer of interpretation where the Christ figure can work, but it should be subtext, not so upfront about it.

The valuing human life and the presumed death count from that battle is what totally killed Man Of Steel for me.
I can buy that Superman is learning to be Superman, I can buy that a Kryptonian vs Kryptonian battle on earth would result in massive collateral damage, but I don't buy that even as an early Superman he'd be…

Cavill would have been good if the character had more than two-dimensions.

Personally I thought they should have cast Marsden in the lead.

Because they focused on everything that worked and ignored telling us anything about the plot besides 'Superman is back, and Lex Luthor is up to something'.

You've officially crossed over the line from justified criticism to pedantic nerdery.

Right… now we've got you all in one place the culling can start.
