James Gunn ‘Superman’ Pro’s & Cons
Pros:
- Just jumping into this world feet first
- Superman, Lex and Lois were excellently cast!!
- Nathan Fillion. Mr Terrific was surprisingly good
- Krypto
- Lighter tone. Not dark and broody like Man of Steel
- Superman robots and Fortress of Solitude
- Bright and the world feels lived in
- Jimmy Olsen ladies man: I like it. He could get his own movie
Cons:
- Not long enough
- Ma and Pa Kent: poor casting
- Superman birth parents sent him to conquer Earth? WTF?
- Valley girl Supergirl…not liking that take…
- Swearing. I may sound old but Superman should be a family friendly
- Needed more time with Daily Planet supporting cast. They felt like set decorations and not fleshed out characters
- Lex was too emotional/bitchy. I would have preferred he was more cold/detached (sociopath)
- The score: why not get John Williams come back?
Also:
Rest in peace Hulkster! As a 80’s kid watching WWF Hulk Hogan was my favourite. :(
