Quite possible. And I would be fine either way.

Cleaning up the topic. Letās keep it to the Superman movie, not the political drama and whatever else is going on. You all feel free to take the discussion to private messaging if you like but anything else about Gaza, Isreal, weāll just start handing out bansā¦ Thanks.

Hey guys, I have been offline mostly due to my wifeās surgery and come back to a big argument over the Superman movie and politics. I cannot stress enough to just leave the political BS off the forums. It has been cleaned up before I got here but I am really asking to just leave it be and discuss comics. This kind of stuff is way too divisive and I just do not want to do it.

I got to see it today. Mid level movie. Not Marvel Phase 4 bad but I wouldnāt consider it great. It just felt kind of sloppy. The funny thing for me was, I canāt stand Guy Gardner in the comics (not Marvelās Paul level of hate but I really never cared for the character at all) but in the movie, I thought he was the best part. I didnāt care what Supes and Lois were talking about, I just kept laughing at the big green baseball bat smacking the plot device outside the window. Iāll give Gunn credit, he is trying something different with the DC universe. I hope I never have to hear Hawkgirl again.

Precisely my sentiment.
Mid levelā¦ and weāve become very accepting of mid-level with the rash of disasters for the last several years.
The new paradigm shift weāve created in our heads for superhero movies is Mid-level = High Level

One of my favorite scenes was Mr. Terrific kicking ass outside the portal and they played ā5 Years Timeā from Noah and the Whale (great band)ā¦ I think I enjoyed Mr. Terrific the most!

Seconded!
Mr. Terrific was a great part of the movie. Gunn got to reuse his Yondu moment from his bag of tricks, lol. Iām not super familiar with the character, though. Does he usually fly around in that T car thing in the comics or was that a movie thing?

Im gonna say the villain is Brainiacā¦
"Although the film will continue their rivalry and feature Lex as an antagonist, rumors suggest they will also join forces as well. Although unverified, sources also tell NPN, that Supergirl (Milly Alcock), Lobo (Jason Momoa), and Peacemaker (John Cena) will have roles in the film as well. "

Brianiac would be awesome! I would like to see Darkseid (done right) eventually but it is about time Brainiac saw time on the big screen. .

Just reading the article made my brain hurt. Seems like the author isnāt a James Gunn fan. I however am a huge fan and thoroughly enjoyed Superman and the second season of Peacemaker.
Cosmic book news does not report anything accurately. I donāt take anything they say as a fact. Itās interesting to see other takes on things thoughā¦
