I Hate Superman Returns
Superheroes suck.
Why?
Example, please take a look at latest unreleased Superman.
He went missing for couples of yrs and come back to realise that the world move on without him, including dear ol Lois Lane.
Yes, the world without superheroes doesnt denote armageddon, the villains also seems to go on a dormant mode when superheroes gone missing. Not much challenge defeating the humanoids I guess.
Anyway, there's this scene where Superman was standing just above the earth globe, beyond the atmosphere, saying to himself,
"...the world doesn't need a savior, but everyday I hear people crying for one"
Well, if he's got superpower hearing, how come he cant hear it from Krypton. Or he chose to shut off to the pleas and cries of those who needed him, like shutting off the hearing aid like water pipe.
And if he's willing to leave Lois in the first place and leave her hanging with no explanations then comes back expecting to reclaim back Lois affection, who does he really think he is anyway?
Also to leave the people whom counted on his rescuing them but since he went MIA, so wat does he expect? To come back and hope everything will be alrite?
Lex also seem mighty mild when Superman's not around, there's no challenge for him to be better than a hero the people cheer for. I think he might've suffered from old fashion case of depression, nothing prozac cant handle.
And what is it with the tight-fitting-underwear-worn-on-the-outside uniform after missing for some time? I'm really dissappointed in his sexual gratification towards tight fitting red-undie materials. He's been gone missing several yrs, yet he seems younger looking and wearing tighter than his previous uniform.
If you have been noticing, Superman series shows younger wearing b*ll-crushing-suit-aim-to-maim as the years go by (same as 007, who seems to sleep with any woman of any origin as long as it's got a pair of legs and pretty face to boot) but Lois Lane is still brunnette, wears little makeup and still in tat dreary looking working clothes and lives her life around the Daily Planet.
If Lois Lane still turns on the ol crush faucet for the man in the blue cape, then she's got hav some serious issues with men in tight shorts.
Hope crushed, people learn to lean on themselves and move on with their lives in Metropolis, Lois having a child on her own, Luther went on with his puny little lives without the hope of crushing a superhero..life seems mighty peaceful without much obstacles that any human cant handle.
Yea, life is better off without superheroes, or in this case, Superman.
PS : I think I harbour some sort of an inexplainable distaste for Superman, mayb it's the logic in me, mayb it's my common sense that since the director's been designing the story line for couple of years, they shuld know better instead of trying to cater for younger generations and kinda forget the long lines of loyal fans who read the comic strips since the directors/producers were in their wee napkin still, or mayb, the audience has grown.
Movie directors and producers should really improve their tactics on producing quality logical interesting stories instead of settling to mere sequels and losing fans along the way, new talents should be saught instead of settling for the pretty looking but with less than daisy-like screen chemistry or talent.
Shamefully, I live in an era where Pixar or Dreamworks seems to produce better story lines using animations in comparison to flesh-n-blood old-fashion-human-kind. I feel sad for the movie industry. Perhaps it's time to turn to small unknown movie makers with fresh approach towards movie line compared to the veterans.
At least, I'll b surprised rather than yawn at the over-commercialised movie scenes and feel that I've paid for my money's worth.
