Definitely would've been better than "Man of Steel" by far.


....

This is the dumbest thing anyone has ever said.

If you thought everything prior to Zod arriving on Earth in Man of Steel was bad, you're a moron. In fact, after watching that movie, I wish Kevin Costner was my dad.

Now switch to kryptonite!

But I did like him as Big Daddy in Kick-Ass more than I liked Bale as Batman in The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises (I still don't understand how that has an 8.5 on IMDB), though, so I wouldn't immediately discount that he could have made a good Superman... though he doesn't quite look the part in that footage.

Nick Cage has the mannerisms more closely associated with a DC villain than a DC superhero :p

I haven't watched the link, wasn't this supposed to be a troubled Superman who was bored living with humans and such?

Man of Steel was the best Superman movie, by far. One of the best Superhero movies at that....and superman sucks.

Agreed.


This new stuff looks hilariously awesome. Hopefully the documentary is as interesting/entertaining as Jodorowsky's Dune.

I love this clip so much. Everyone needs to take the time and watch it, because Smith is such an amazing story-teller.

I think I've watched this video 3 times.

I own his three stand-up videos (unless there's a new one!?), and regardless of whether you like his movies, the stand-up can be hilarious to watch. He'll probably remind you of your grandpa (or an engineer), because you ask them a simple question, and Smith goes off on a long 10-20 minute story.

He is. I saw him live once and he was extremely entertaining.

Superman 2 Remember Richard Donner didn't really have final cut powers over the ones he directed

TLDR: Richard Donner's vision with modern special effects... beats "Let's make Superman as sulky as Nolan's Batman"

yeah the time reversing plot point is :rolleyes: but it's a funny joke in these clips
