SUPERMAN test-screening reports

Routh in Returns was too moody and contemplative, Supes should be an optimistic action hero

In this movie Superman apparently gives a speech while crying.

He just signed a major multi-picture deal with WB and it's feasible he'd throw them a bone like this.

(((some loving it)))

An A-lister actor makes an uncredited cameo as Superman’s Kryptonian father Jor-El (rumored to be Tom Cruise).

Wasn't James Gunn complaining about superhero movies suffering from cameo porn and patting his back saying he'd never do that?

James Gunn says whatever people want to hear to ensure this movie is a hit. All of WB depends on it.

>Generally mixed reactions. The “very silly” tone has been divisive, with some loving it and others hating it.

Oh God. They ridiculed superman

FUCKING LMAO. Snyder Bros we just keep winning.

This movie is going to flop so fucking hard lmao

No mention of the score. Lmao how the fuck could they top Zimmer? Go home

The goal is just to make less than MoS adjusted for inflation.
If that happens it means they fired Cavill and started over for no reason.

Lmao how the fuck could they top Zimmer?

John Williams score

John Williams score

He hasn't made anything good in decades. Couldn't save this slop.
John Murphy hasn't made anything good since Sunshine and likely Underworld is mostly attributed to that success.

they fired Cavill and started over for no reason

In this movie Superman apparently gives a speech while crying.

I've never seen superman cry in my 30years of existance and 20years of knowing him.
God damit they are going to ruin him.

Whats next, Batman crying?

The silly tone places restrictions on this universe's Batman which won't be popular

Superman won't hit $300 mil domestic, mainly because no name actors and the fruity effervescence is like toy store novelty cologne. Should have used Top Gun 2 as its template but the shoehorned Cruise cameo will be deflated by Mission Impossible flopping, tracking and socials are par with last one.

Batman 2 won't be made and Zas will sell WB or DC by next summer, probably rush out Super Girl to justify the sale

This also was done to mask a sale and do some fin magic, Cruise likely has big severance contingency

The goal is just to make less than MoS adjusted for inflation.

It won't.

The A-list actor playing Jor-El has leaked, and it's not Cruise.

in my 30years of existance

Grim.

The silly tone places restrictions on this universe's Batman which won't be popular

Except that's authentic to Batman in the actual DC universe. He's only ever seen through a serious and moody lens when he's the only major hero around. Every time he shows up in a crossover with a hero from literally anywhere else (Including The Question, who lives in a city that makes Gotham look like Happy Harbor) it's revealed he is in fact a very silly and peculiar fella that most people find to be annoying on a bad day and charming on a good one.

You sure about that?
MoS made $670,145,518 worldwide in 2013

Adjusted for today's inflation that's about $917 million

I can count the number of movies that came out in the last few years that made that much money on just my hands

You have to be 18 to post here.

Rachel Brosnahan steals the movie as Lois Lane and has excellent chemistry with Corenswet.

Honestly the only thing that worried me. Mildly optimistic now

I'm Superman, bitches

Fucking hell

Lex Luthor is now in Russian Collusion (TM) or?? No word on Booba display?

And that's why Batman own comics sells the best and the other ones, be it Superman ones or the Justice League ones, sell much less. Because even when Batman shows up he's played for laughs.

test

Is there a single non-anthology film that does this right?

This will do well. I predict around 800-900 million BUT that doesn't matter because, for WB to survive this, it needs to make upward of a billion plus. We're talking, it needs to shatter box offices. Otherwise, they're at a loss. Plus, even if the movie DOES do a billion, DC will still be chopped up and sold because of a decade plus of serious mismanagement.

Of course James Gunn ruins superman with bullshit "Comedy" in the middle. We need the actual Superman back and a director that can make him an actual hero

I think it has the weekend it releases to itself. Its closest competitors are the new Jurassic World a week before and Fantastic 4 a couple of weeks after. So it might have the space to make a chunk of cash.

An A-lister actor makes an uncredited cameo as Superman’s Kryptonian father Jor-El (rumored to be Tom Cruise).

It's Bradley Cooper and how can it be "rumored" if the people saying this saw the movie at a test screening?
They would have literally SAW Tom Cruise in the movie.

I don't give a fuck what anyone says. He's the perfect Superman.

The movie has an episodic structure, like a series of interlocked short stories rather than one continuous narrative.

Kino

David Corenswet is good as Superman; his performance has been described as similar to Brandon Routh’s in Superman Returns.

Kino

Nicholas Hoult is good as Lex Luthor, but overacts frequently, especially when Luthor gets angry.

Eh

Rachel Brosnahan steals the movie as Lois Lane and has excellent chemistry with Corenswet.

Booba

Krypto has an important role, but felt “artificial” and “tacked on”.

Sorry but he's kino idgaf

Lex Luthor’s sidekicks Eve and Otis are fun but superfluous.

Eh

There is a major subplot about Lois and Clark investigating Luthor’s involvement with an armed conflict in Eastern Europe.

Eh

There is a comedic subplot about Eve, a bombshell supermodel, falling head-over-heels in love with Jimmy Olsen, who can’t stand her.

Unbelievable Sliver Age Olsenkino

There is a comedic subplot about Mister Terrific trying to feed Krypto.

Kino

Someone says "I'm Superman, bitches!" (Presumably not Superman).

Ugh

An A-lister actor makes an uncredited cameo as Superman’s Kryptonian father Jor-El (rumored to be Tom Cruise).

Who cares

kaiju fight

Kino
I for one am cautiously optimistic

Superman is boring. Lex Luthor is me.

Honestly if he was cast and Snyder wasn't involved with his 9/11 porn and Messiah run we would've already had the perfect superman movie

It will do well BUT unless it somehow reaches the heights of Avatar, it will not save WB/DC. IF ANYTHING, its success will only embolden Zazlav to pursue an outright sale of WB/DC to Apple, who has been circling them like vultures but even if they get lucky on Gunn's Superman, they will still sell. They have no wiggle room.

Otis

I will now watch your movie

fake. You're just taking things from leaked set images and treating them like scoops. The krypto and Mr Terrific thing is the give away. That's not gunna be a subplot, it's just from that leaked video.

Lex Luthor. Play into the Trump/Putin/yo mama aspect

They blackwashed him.

TRUTH BOMB:

Once Superman does well, they'll quietly announce they've shelved The Batman: Part II and all other Reeves/DC projects to minimize backlash from the public fandom.

gunnjeet cope
its obvious gunn's been fucking with reeves and feed the retards the narrative that no scripts been completed

It's a very childish game of push-and-pull which Reeves is bound to lose. He's not only complete the script but has three drafts of it thus far. None of which will see the light of day. The villain was an amalgamation of Hush and Scarecrow which would lead into a third, and final, chapter of the trilogy featuring a revamped Court of Owls. No Mr. Freeze. Zazlav/Gunn are stalling him until Reeves throws his hands in the air and walks out himself. No payday for him. It's a money thing, too.

I can't wait for Gunn's Superman to bomb. He will get fired and Reeves will get to make his movie.
Assuming WB even lives long enough for that to happen.
WB is losing so much money on box office bombs this year it's hilarious.
Sinners is gonna bomb along with One Battle After Another.

WB/DC will be absorbed by Apple by 2027 so none of this will matter. Jews will help out Jews.

Either Apple or Amazon will get them but I can't wait for Gunn to get fired and the whole dumb DCU to end. Gunn is just using it to reward all his friends with big paychecks.

Lmao cope. Both Superman and Batman are dead as doornails under Zaslav. Other anons are correct. It's over lmao. Snyder just keeps winning. BTFO muh hopeful 70s superman lmao lmao lmao.

Amazon

No. After how much they were absolutely bent over and fucked by the MGM deal, they're never doing another merger or buy-out again. They paid 10 billion for a character IP (007) that will be public domain in about 10 years.

Apple

This is 100% happening. Apple needs the IP and Warners need the safety net. I'm afraid, though, that your wish to see Gunn fired might not pan out. If anything, being bought out by Apple will just give him Fuck You money to do whatever he wants with DC for as long as he lives, provided Superman and Supergirl land.

Reeves is doing Clayface, I suppose He'll do both Batmans and they'll kick out Muschietti.

>David Corenswet is good as Superman; his performance has been described as similar to Brandon Routh’s in Superman Returns.

that's contradictory

Gunn is just using it to reward all his friends with big paychecks.

Can't wait to never see his whore of a wife and her lips again.

Remember the 2000's? When they'd release just ONE movie with one character, at one time, and you'd go see it and it'd be, on average, pretty good and then you'd wait for a sequel and that'd be it? Not this pain-stakingly retarded "universe" nonsense for parasocial media-addicted, Twitter-addicted mongrels who have nothing else to do with their miserable lives but envelop their time in the ongoings of goddamn fictional superhero worlds. Madness.

remember when things were lame?

no grandpa I'm too young for that

He has a pudgy face, not angular enough to be Superman, not masculine enough.

You could say the same about Zimmer. He recycles same score over and over since The Rock. MOS score was bland. Superman needs a huge, marching band style score not some depressing shit

>Generally mixed reactions. The “very silly” tone has been divisive, with some loving it and others hating it.

Obvious bait, see you at 300 replies

it's not Cruise, some other nuHollywood normie fag
forgot the name

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let both Superman and Fantastic Four flop hard so we can end this shit once and for all.

MOS score was bland

Kill yourself. There is marching band drums in zimmers score you dumb fuck. youtu.be/ECoIGvDT36Q?t=1m19s

Neck yourself. Sincerely. Jesus..

140 minutes

That's a lot of capeslop

This. So much this! Ding ding ding ding ding! Yasss sweaty

There is marching band drums

Sure of the marching band is on Xanax. It’s too subdued. Nothing about that score is screams “Superman is here to save the day!”

yuck...
