Renton 21032 Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Superman Returns on cable. What a load of bollocks, incredibly naff and irritating. It's an interesting reflection on American society currently though, they've even managed to shoe-horn their pseudo-christian bull shit into a Superman film ffs.

I like the sound of the 'pretending T3 never happened' part tbh. But I kinda assumed things were sewn up at the end of T2 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting reflection on American society currently though, they've even managed to shoe-horn their pseudo-christian bull shit into a Superman film ffs. Typical yawnsome anti-american twaddle. Anti-evangelical maybe. I'd previously enjoyed the other superman films and Spiderman, Batman etc, so how am I anti-American? Do you disagree that there is a tren towards increasing christianity in America that is reflected in its media? That is the yawnsome twaddle imo. Happy Face: as for superman always being a christian allegory, that's news to me. I don't see it in the other films or in the comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face: as for superman always being a christian allegory, that's news to me. I don't see it in the other films or in the comics. 'tis a common theory... Because Siegel and Shuster (creators) were both Jewish, it is thought that their creation was partly influenced by Moses, and other Jewish influences. Superman's Kryptonian name, "Kal-El," resembles the Hebrew words קל-אל, which means "vessel of God". The suffix "el", meaning "of God" is also found in the name of angels (e.g. Gabriel, Ariel); flying humanoid agents of good with super-human powers. Jewish legends of the Golem have been cited as worthy of comparison, a Golem being a mythical being created to protect and serve the persecuted Jews of 16th century Prague and later revived in popular culture in reference to their suffering at the hands of the Nazis in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. Superman is often seen as being an analogy for Jesus, being a saviour of humanity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 (edited) Snakes On A Plane If Graham Lister can get 3 laughs from lard, why couldn't this multi million dollar production manage as many? I think there were 2 chuckles and half a grin, but generraly it was unmitigated shite. And it's not so bad it's good either, that can't be achieved by targetting it. A film needs to be completeley earnest to be laughed AT. This wants you to laugh with it, but there's fuck all there to allow you to. EDIT: "GENERRALY"??? WTF? EDIT2: targetting?? completeley?? Christ almighty. Edited March 25, 2007 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
