Okay,Mr. Zack Snyder. Stop it. 300 was cool ten years ago, and the watchmen was pretty good. Though I probably just give him extra points with his use of Leonard Cohen. Though really man. I expected some sort of awesome re imagining of superman. Hell Christopher Nolan made batman more of a ninja. Batman + ninja + military hardware = good. The natural progression was to make superman properly ridiculous. Thats sort of the point. I would have fully endorsed not bothering to orgin-ise him again and just go for the gold like with a villain like Apocalypse or Darkside.

I guess what I'm saying is that the superman origin story kind of sucks. I said it. I know. My planet blew up and I save people. The re-imagining of origin works for lesser powers like Spiderman and Batman and crap, but when you are quite literally the ultimate in superhero you need to have a villain that does not get his ass wasted so bad. I mean real time Xod was like a problem for like a few days. Oh noes. Dynamic cool battle of building launching doom and it ends with a headlock and neck snap. Thats like the full nelson of dragon ball Z. Just funny... and sad.

The show is not bad overall, but I'm sick to death of the mire these shows keep drowning themselves in. X-men: You don't need to start again. Do some of the crazy mutant wars stuff big mech's are full of win... or hell do the phoenix saga properly.
