The action in MoS is literally the best action in _any_ CBM. there's a YouTube video that edits out parts of the final fight so it's just the Superman vs Zod parts and just watching it is fucking incredible how well it was scripted and choreographed.

I liked man of steel and i'd put it above a lot of mcu films, but I'm not a fan of the action at the end. i'm not a fan of long fights, destruction porn, or any dbz anime bs. the fight in kansas was great, metropolis went on too fucking long that I checked out

This was oddly a common complaint of critics as well "too much action"

I found that kind of bewildering since I remember one of the things that pissed me off the most about the first transformers movie was how very little action there was.

I liked the scene where Supermans dad wanted him to be a farmer and Superman wanted to be something more so he told his parents they simply found him in a field. Right after arguing with them he had to decide whether to save Hank the dog(mans best friend) or to trust his father to not show the world what he is and get rejected out of fear.

Insanely well-directed. So many layers.

I don't have a problem posting the ASM crane scene as an example of how badly it ruins Spider-Man and makes the entire rest of the movie shit by association.

The tornado scene somehow usurps that feeling and I don't even like Supes all that much.

I have no stake in this discussion other than the Zodd vs Supes fight was fucking amazing. For the first time in a superhero movie I saw what two beings living in a world made of cardboard would do to it in a fight.

Man of Steel taught me that if you need to have an emotional scene with your child a tornado wont lift you up until you are literally inside it.

Man that scene was really bad.

Anyone who says "I'm not racist but" typically follows it up with something totally racist. It's no different here. People feel the need to prove their cred as unbiased before going completely fanboy.

Even among posters here who hated BvS loved the warehouse fight and there were constant comparisons to rocksteady's Arkham games for days.

The tornado scene is overblown, while he shouldn't have gone to save a dog if Clark went and saved him that would expose him to the entire world.

It's almost like he's not Superman, who could discretely use gale force breath to make the tornado go away, or run out to save the dog himself and then claim he must have juat been one of those miracle survivors, or discretely use gale force breath to kick yp a smokescreen that he could use as cover while he save his dad.

Well actually he's hardly anything like Superman anyway so that checks out actually.

The movie is already 37 hours long and terrible, how would adding more stuff make it better? Not that it can't happen, the extended version of Kingdom of Heaven is actually a good movie unlike the theatrical cut, but I'm just not seeing it here.

Does the uncut version explain why Lois Lane randomly goes to pick up a kryptonite spear from a pool of water she threw it in two minutes before? Does it make Michael Cera's Lex Luthor less cringe? Does it explain the purpose of blowing up congress consideirng even the movie agrees five seconds later that it wasn't Supes' fault?

He literally says all Superman does is punch people. That's the most blatantly bullshit lie I've ever heard about the DCEU.

Then to further hammer the point home he just runs a repeating clip of Batman punching Superman for like 2 minutes straight as if that was a realistic description of the fight and not just the same 15 seconds looped.

Then he cherry picks quotes from characters mid fight like those morons who compare the Lyrics to Queen's Bicycle to some Kanye West song that he didn't even write.

Young Superman isnt a genius yet so he couldn't save his dad.

Anytime who says the fighting at the end of MOS is derranged.

BvS uncut explains a lot of stuff but most of people's criticisms are dumb. The bad thing in BvS is Lex Luther, but it explains that actually Lex Luther Jr.

BvS and MoS apologists never fail to amuse. Excusing Eisenberg by using the "Luthor Jr" excuse while ignoring they tried their damnedest to make him look/act like actual Lex in subsequent appearances.

And you're cherry picking what he said. It's well understood that most of the fights in the DC movies are either weightless or a punching contest or both. Sure, you get the rare decent fight, but most are quite frankly awful. The only way you can defend the overall quality of the DC movies is to be willfully oblivious.

That looping clip was there for comedic effect not to show that all Superman does is punch. And a realistic representation of that fight would just hammer his point home even more that the characters in DCEU movies just do the most obvious and uncreative thing. Superman has been weakened by the krypontine gas and his powers were just starting to come back. He saw Batman loading another round of he gas into the weapons and get ready to aim at him. So what does Superman decide to do? Fly straight at him and get hit with the gas again lol. He couldve used his heat vision to destroy the weapon, he couldve broken the ground to knack Batman off balance, he couldve flown out of the building. But nope, flying straight at the gas that has robbed him of his powers seemed like the right move to him lol. These fights are wack, dude. Ive hear a lot of good things about Aquaman though
