It is a comic book movie. Treat it as such.
Now that I'm in the Air Force, MANY movies exude BS while using REAL weapons with UNREALISTIC capabilities or effects. Now if this was Star Wars or any futuristic story, with MAKE-BELIEVE weapons, aircraft, etc. MY BELIEF can then be suspended.
Again, particular scenes or entire movies will always have this effect on me just like cats in the other threads crying about how NCAA XX doesn't have the right color chinstraps for their favorite team or their stadium is missing the old vendor who's been selling hot dogs for the past 50 years..Carolina Pride!!!

NBA: Hornets (Again...Yes)

Originally posted by Rback21Okay...Commando is a MOVIE that uses realistic items such as cars, boats, weapons, etc. But, because my father was in the army, he taught me alot about certain weapons and the scene towards the end when Arnie blew up the enemy barracks with CLAYMORES...was totally BS. Claymores are anti-personnel mines that explode but spread fragments of shrapnel...not blow up three large buildings.

wow relax...its a movie. its so funny seeing people talk about how that its not realistic and blah blah blah. 90% of movies are unrealistic so i don't know where you are going here. Even movies base on a true story are probably half true with the other half with hollywood BS.
I've been in the restraunt business i'm i suppose to bash Waiting because its so inaccurate about servers? I've also done telemarketing i'm i gonna bash Boiler Room for being so far off the telemarketing business?Comment

Re: Superman Returns
IMHO, they really should have approached the Superman movie with a global perspective. Address questions like how the world has changed, how Superman is a detriment to the world these days, how he is a benefit, etc.
Instead we get more of a romance between Lois and Superman and these ideas only superficially addressed (mostly through Lois, while on the other hand the whole world is GLAD he's back with only a passing remark on that, and no explanation for it at all). It's neither deep nor as entertaining as it should be, IMHO.
I think if they had gone into some ideological stance, addressed why Superman is there in the first place, instead of broaching it and then dropping it, Superman Returns would have been a lot more focused, a lot more heartfelt, and just a whole lot better.
Batman Begins succeeded because they focused on the growth of Batman and his ideology. Superman Returns just barely grazes the topic, and that was a major disappointment overall for me. I couldn't care less for Lex Luthor as the villain. I hated the way he got his money back, and his overall scheme was really contrived and irrelevant to defining Superman and his relation to the world.
I enjoyed the movie based on the fact it was a Superman movie, but it really could have been a lot better than it was.Comment

Originally posted by SPTOIMO that would've made the movie a bit too dark. A world without Superman would be over run with criminals and the world would be plunged into an almost dystopian state. Do you really want to see a world plunged into that kind of chaos? (tho granted it'd be a bit more realistic)Comment
