Man of Steel 2

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 08-08-2016, 01:15 PM

This will make Leo656 very happy and Commenter 42 very unhappy. There will be fist pumps and cries of joy from one man, and howls of outrage and gnashing of teeth from the other.

Me? Give me a Lex Luthor that isn't Jesse Eisenberg (or at least drastically change that twitchy twerp's performance) and more Cavill and Adams, and I'll be happy.

If WB has already jumped the gun and done Doomsday, what do they follow up with? The Superman Clone Saga (sorry, I don't remember the story arc's actual title)? Parasite? Bring in a better Supergirl (move over, Melissa)? Mongol? Metallo?

Personally, I'm betting the Superman clones... Superboy/girl, Cyborg Superman, Eradicator, Steel. I guess we'll have to see how Justice League handles bringing him back.

I find it bizarre after all this time Brainiac has never been done in live-action. He's one of the most important villains.

I KNEW I WAS FORGETTING ONE OF HIS ENEMIES!

Yup, the movie will be Brainiac. No doubt about it.

DC is not afraid

Actually this makes me happy. Snyder's barely treading water, and they just tosd him a cement block.

I'm pretty sure, agree or disagree, that Snyder won't be involved. At best, a minimalized presence.

WB wants/needs Superman to make bank, so they're going to pull out all the stops.

Lol, can we not talk about Leo?

Yep. It's pretty pathetic, even factoring in the Reeve movies... his villains were Lex, then Zod, then Lex again in Returns, then Zod again in Man of Steel, and Lex again in BvS coupled with Zod's body again. How sad is that? Can we get new villains, please?

Mongul and Warworld would rock, though it might be thematically too similar to what they're probably planning with Darkseid and Apokalips. Brainiac is a no-brainer. I thought Man of Steel was foreshadowing him with the Codex stuff but they pissed it off to do a Dark Knight Returns/Death of Superman jambalaya in DC Cinematic Universe movie #2.

*turtlefanforever* · 08-08-2016, 03:48 PM

the first movie was DREADFUL!!! Wow, i don't intend on seeing this but if Cyborg Superman was the villain i'd consider it.

They've bungled everything. Half of his supporting cast is already dead. Snyder will surely kill some more in JL.

You know who might make a good Superman film? Cameron.

Hear me out.

Think about the sci-fi of Superman. It's the part they rarely explore. Think about the menagerie of aliens. Would be interesting. Superman off-world.

I'd say Abrams, given what he's done for Star wars and Star Trek, but he already had a shot, and his ideas were a little meh.
Maybe he's grown.

So dumb. They actually go to the trouble of doing the Death of Superman in DC Cinematic Universe Movie #2, and they can't even make it to the end of the movie without spoiling his resurrection.

What, you mean this?

The best thing he did for Star Trek was having mostly nothing to do with the latest one. And TFA was pretty much just a study in how to "lift" a movie with only a slight coating of anything original.

I don't like Superman [which probably makes my liking of Man of Steel incredibly appropriate because it was his personality that I liked] but I would be all over this.

*NinjaPug* · 08-08-2016, 05:32 PM

This version has already been ruined so much that it would take a great writer/director for me to get excited about this. Please don't continue trying to deconstruct Superman. Also, please don't kill main characters by shooting them in the head in a throwaway scene because you think it's "fun". Keep The ****** version of Lex away from this too.

I hope Man of Steel 2 will have Supergirl in it, the prequel comic told Kara's origin, she was the one who stepped out of that cryochamber, when Superman went into the ship and for a brief moment, sees one that was opened.

I will assume Darkseid is reserved for Justice League. What about Brainiac? He could reverse the stance the public took as a result of Zod. During the chaos Lex could be creating another monster,but this time a Superman he can control which will result in Bizarro and if the plot merits it Superboy can enter as the perfected clone while Bizarro could be from dated dna and Superboy a touch of Luthor dna to humanize the Kryptonian clone.

BuEller, man. Ferris Bueller. He's also in Speed.

And yeah, I never thought of him, but he would make a good Mr. Fantastic.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 08-09-2016, 09:45 PM

So this is actually a go then? Haven't they learned their lesson yet? Superman is not the same as Batman, tonally or otherwise. Trying to make them both similar in character is to completely miss the dynamic between them. I agree with 42. And daaamn but Ruck WOULD make a good Reed! Also I fully agree that Evans and Chicklis were great as Johnny and Ben. Hmm Geller as Sue? I could dig it!

Luigiperps · 08-09-2016, 09:56 PM

They better bring Jimmy Olsen back.
