it was probably the best superman movie, but it still wasn't that good

I am not at all a huge superman fan but cmon even I know all your points are fucking idiotic.

Clark watched his father die out of respect, he realized his father was willing to die for him and respected his wishes.
Wont even comment on the zod thing as you reference it later so I will as well.
Jor-El shows Clark who he really is, Clark has been lost for most of his life, looking for a purpose. Jor-El provided that by educating him about his real home.
Clarks father says "I dont know, maybe" when clark asks if he should have let everyone die, it is an important part of clarks childhood as his starts the development of his moral code
The invasion happens because the ship that was on earth was activated, the humans who were digging towards it could have just as easily activated the distress signal and brought the invasion, not to mention Zod was looking for a place to make a new krypton, if it wasn't earth it would have been another planet.
It is made 100% clear that the kryptonian council members don't believe the whole core explosion thing and they refused to listen to Jor-Els advice.
The amount of time superman is practicing his powers is never made 100% clear, he was obviously developing them for most of his life, not "a few days" it is also made clear in the movie that superman is actually stronger than zod and zod's men. the powers for Zod are 100% that day completely new, plus clark has been growing up on earth his entire life meaning he was getting stronger and stronger every day. Superman IS stronger than Zod, period. Outclassed as far as fighting style? Yes, of course. But he is stronger and faster by enough that his weak fighting skill doesn't hurt him as much as it would if they were completely equal in strength.

Superman kills Zod..this is my favorite one, I know retards will bring this up for a while. I mean I hate superman as a hero but even I know that he is willing to kill, it has been said many times before that he would kill if he has to. The way he kills Zod and is in complete anguish over it was done brilliantly. This is actually the one singular part of the movie that you cannot argue is amazing.

been sittin on my box for awhile never in the mood to watch it though


btw get ready to lose 2morrow night

Movie was okay, worth a watch but what really pissed me off was that like half the city was destroyed and probably hundreds of thousands killed yet nobody seems to even care.

they should of brought n the actors from smallville to make the move i think it would of made it better

if that actually happened no one would care about the destroyed city or dead people, they would most likely be worried about the race of invincible aliens that are fighting a war on their planet.

just saying
