but I'm still probably going to watch it if it gets good word of mouth. Interested in seeing a horror super hero movie and how well both genres can mash together. There was suppose to be that X-men movie that was suppose to do it first, but I think that movie was constantly pushed because of corporate shit.

Chronicle did it best IMO.

Hancock did anti-hero version best.

I hope this ones good cause we rarely get this kind of crossover.

I'm actually hoping this spawns a whole "broken hero universe" or something. Like maybe a sequel about a kid in the same world, that has his parents get shot. And he turns insane

And a scientist gains superspeed and let's the power corrupt him. And a girl raised on a magic island decides to enslave all men

Why did the lawnmower break when he put his hand in there? Is infinite mass his superpower, along with being indestructible? Even if he can't be harmed, little boy fingers are going to get SLAPPED the fuck out of there by an engine-powered spinning metal blade

He is basically super-man so super strength invulnerable, super speed, flight, optic blast.

Same place as Superman: super strength and don't worry about it.

I wish I could've given it a fair shake but I watched it in theaters and we were kinda close to the screen. And this was during the time where I struggled a lot with motion sickness. So by the end of the movie my head was absolutely fucked.

Maybe. This movie is basically how Lex sees Superman in his mind. The evil uncontrollable vile alien invader

spoilers for the movie man of steel
superman kills zod a villain to save a family and zod made it clear he won't stop at that and will keep on trying to kill more humans

while the movie had it's flaw man did the fandom got bend out shape
there were some liked that but the purest hated it so much that they made jokes about the director's suicide of his daughter

They hate for Superman to be dark and gritty but are fine with darker takes on the story when it's a different character. Such as the comic irredeemable.

But don't many Superman versions end up killing the bad Kryptonians, wether from his universe or an alternate one? Isn't that what hits him so hard that he vows to not kill again?

on the plus side i guess this may setup a The Crime Syndicate origin story and dark DC universe since this is a ultraman story in a way
now i want to see if we will get owl man or johnny quick first if this does well

This would be a very interesting universe to create, and one that would always be on the verge of destruction.
