Desaad must have been a rarer figure, because I never saw that one anywhere.

I remember after these figures were going that Steppenwolf figure was the only one left in every store you went to.

I no  longer have any interest in discussing this movie that I didn't like, especially this twenty second portion of it.  I am genuinely puzzled why the fact that I don't agree with you seems to frustrate you so much.  Good day to you sir.

Are you not aware that you are saying the same thing every time too?  That's why I say the same thing back.  You don't accept my problems.  I don't accept your solutions.  Bye.

No it wasn't.  I saw it.  I was not amazed.

I feel exactly the same about your endless rebuttals.  I disagree with every point youer making, but its getting very tedious writing the same things back and forth at each other (you still don't get that Zod didn't know he could do it is not a valid reason Zod shot his heat rays at the people instead of at

No it wasn't.  It wasn't terrible, but it was far from amazing.

I think the hate builds when youre exposed to lots of people claiming it was Amazing.  My reaction in the theatre was basically that was pretty entertaining and looked good, but had a totally stupid script.  And I felt reasonably positive about it.  The more comments I read saying how great it was, the more I felt

Counterpoint to counterpoint:
All that is true as long as you just take the ride and accept what the movie says.  If you spend one second thinking about any of it, it becomes an incoherent mess.

She seemed very clearly surprised to me.  She has her back to him, they say Clark Kent, and she quickly spins with a shocked look on her face.  If she got him the job she must have Alzheimers, or else nobody told Amy Adams before they filmed that scene.

Ok I have to stop replying to this because this will go on forever, but I can't stop because all of your rebuttals seem so silly.  I don't think it's nitpicky to ask why, if their necks snap that easy, slamming each other through buildings doesn't break their bones.  I think that's a perfect example of the lack of

Why would not knowing how powerful you are stop you from heat blasting an enemy in the face to find out?  He couldn't use the Codex at this point.  Was Zod heatraying 4 people low stakes… yes!  Especially when we just watched him and Superman booth destroy half of a city.  Higher stakes than other Superman movies

It's not that I have a problem with them doing something new with Superman, or having Superman be forced to kill (which isn't actually new).  It's that I found the scene pathetically minor and low-stakes and not something that should be challenging to Superman.  We can point by point rebut each other all day (Superman

So the heat ray would have blasted right through Supes hand?  Then why didn't Zod just heat ray him in the face?  If he had thrown Zod away, it would have postponed the few seconds thing and given him time to think of something else. Same f he had just put himself in between Zod and the people.  Why not just fly him

You really think there was nothing else SUPERMAN could do?  That is more unbelievable to me than the fact that they put that scene in the movie. 

The Phantom Zone, obviously.  I know those projectors got taken out, but in a Superman comic, this would be the final act plot.  Somehow, Superman figures out some other way to send him there. 

No, they totally believed him, they just didn't bother to evacuate.  Remember when the guy gets all whiny defensive when Jor-El says they caused it (But we needed energy.  What else were we to do?).  Seems to me they were conceding the point that the planet was doomed, they just didn't much care as long as no one said

The key thing was my favorite ridiculous part.  Zod erases Jor-El, killing him AGAIN and takes control of the ship.  In practical terms this means the key will now only load itself in half way and you have to… (dramatic cliffhanger moment!) push it in the rest of the way yourself!!!  The horror!!!

There was literally no way to stop him?  He couldn't put his hand over his eyes?  Push/throw him miles away as they had been doing to each other all through the battle?  Put himself in between Zod and the humans?   That's what seemed so weird.  It clearly seemed to be the kind of scene where it would seem like there

I liked Amy Adams' character in this movie, but she wasn't Lois Lane.
