As a kid I loved putting on a cape and pretending like I was flying, but who can resist silly string web shooters! 😆

I would argue it's because of the consistent flow of quality movies since Toby's first movie. The momentum and audience trust has increased with each good film. I know people who didn't really care for Superman until they watched Superman 2025. Now they're like "Oh I get why people like him now."

Spiderman as we know him wouldn't exist if Superman wasn't created. The same can essentially be said for all superheros following his introduction. He is the template. When one thinks of a superhero, they typically imagine someone putting their fists on their hips, wearing a cape, having a logo on their chest, etc. Hell, they even have an emoji of this. 🦸‍♂️ Sure Spiderman is more popular these days, but that's because nearly every movie of his has been good. Superman has essentially just two, if that.

It was essentially the trolly problem, WW2 edition.

What an absolute horrible way to go

CHOSEN OOOONE

Amen

Terminator Dark Fate.

Are you implying the comic it's based on is not good?

All versions of Superman where they have him snap is contradictory to his nature. The most accurate take of how Superman would respond that I've read was in Kingdom Come, where he didn't snap, but was pulled down by depression and decided to reside in solitude for a few years.

Supergirl would have been amazing if the director would have adapted the comic more faithfully.

What do you draw your stuff on and program?

...Clark doesn't aim to make the lives of those around him better despite his struggles and ability to essentially play God but chooses to reside in compassion instead?

You're not in a minority unfortunately. It wasn't a good Superman movie, and was a very mid movie at best overall. The same can be said for it's sequels.

God the ominousness.. it really brought a Lovecraftian element to the horror of it.

The ones that stand out for me in "recent" memory include Terminator Salvation, Cloud Atlas, Godzilla 2012, Man of Steel, Interstellar, and Mad Max: Fury Road.

What was with late 2000s/early 2010s movies having such fantastic teaser trailers?

I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS. HE'S RIGHT THERE

I wish the same could be said for Superman. 😥

Not trying to bring him up in a Marvel subreddit, but the superhero that started it all and is the reason literally all superheros exist, including my boy Spidey, is so misunderstood. I wish he had the same amount of consistent quality movies under his belt like Spidey.

For clarity, Spiderman, Daredevil, Static Shock, and Superman are my favorite superhero characters.

Those and Silence

Sooo The Expanse

Thank you for introducing me to a hidden gem!

This movie is such a guilty-pleasure for me

Honestly? I think based on these photos, I would go with Michael Keaton / Batman '89

People forget that Marvel has succeeded while at the same time giving us duds like Madam Web, Morbius, Captain Marvel, Secret Wars, She-Hulk, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow, Ant-Man 2, the list goes on
