There's a difference between posting well written reviews and reposting 60 times anything seen on twitter from randos. (Both of you know that).

I expect to wake up to some simple non-spoiler thumbs up/thumbs down, 1-10 scale ratings, etc. on this thread from those of you watching it tonight.

After 125 reviews it seems to have settled at 86%.

Assuming that sticks, here are the official Superman RT rankings...

90% - Superman: The Movie
88% - Superman II
86% - Superman
72% - Superman Returns
71% - Zack Snyder's Justice League
57% - Man of Steel
39% - Justice League
31% - Superman III
28% - Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
14% - Superman IV: The Quest for Peace


MoS at 57%?!!?? What a load of ***** Everyone that scored it poorly should be deported.

In a just world, Superman II and Man of Steel scores would swap.

Are you sure you didn't paste this incorrectly?

JFC, dude.

You are now, officially, just as annoying as you claim the reaction tweets are, and just as incessant as you claim I am in posting them. Like, how can you possibly rationalize obsessively complaining about them this much? It's genuinely insane, and so incredibly obvious that it's spurred by nothing more than the most juvenile grudge against me.

They're tweets!

On a message board!

That you had to scroll past for ten seconds max!

Who.

****ing.

Cares.

This is so incredibly stupid.

Holy ****, man, get some help.

Good lord, you know you don't actually have to have the last word in every argument. You must be a woman.

This will be a rage post.

I was supposed to be seeing Superman right now. Got to the theater easily on time. Previous showing was just letting out, after which they roped it off while presumably cleaning the auditorium. Then a guy came out and announced that due to technical difficulties, the movie would not be starting on time. He couldn't give an estimate as to when it might start, but then said something that sounded a whole lot like an hour and a half from now. He assured everyone that it would play, just didn't know when. Yeah, that's not going to work. I am an early riser and I have no desire to burn a PTO day over a movie.

This is the second time this has happened in two weeks. Last time was the mystery screening that turned out to be Jurassic World Rebirth, but they were able to move to a smaller auditorium. Superman will be in their biggest auditorium and was a sellout I am sure, so they probably could not move it to a different auditorium.

They did refund the tickets and gave me a gift card on top of that, but dammit, how hard is it to keep the equipment fully functional? AMC Katy Mills. Been my go-to for years after the local Cinemark pissed me off way back when. I might just get a new go-to.

I was about to say, didn't the same thing happen to you last week? Damn, dude, that sucks. Same theater?

That could also be a content issue. The studios often wait to release keys and content at the very last minute for these big premieres and it can cause issues. Not saying that happened here but scrambling for content last minute happens more often than you realize.

That sucks. I was actually looking forward to your rating, seeing as how big a Supes fan you are.

Yes, same theater. Yes, happened for the mystery showing that turned out to be JWR. I am pissed off.

Just bought tickets at Cinemark D-Box 3D for Thursday.

Thanks. I am sure I will post on one of the threads what I think.

Just got out of seeing Superman.

Solid 9/10. The cast works very well together. Fillion as Guy Gardner was really well done, and I had my reservations about him.

My favorite side character was Mr Terrific. Can't remember the actors name but he absolutely nailed the role.

Corenswet is a very very good Superman. Just enough humor to keep it light for kids but has the ability to kick some serious ass and get pissed when he wants to.

If this is the precursor to the DCU I am very excited to see where it goes.

EDIT: There is a mid and post credit scene btw
No matter what!
Epstein didn't do, you know, the thing...

Also Nicholas Hoult was a GREAT Luther. Best IMO since Kevin spacey

I will echo this as well. While I found some shots a little off putting and few directions on the script didn't quite click, the overall film had me grinning the whole time. Holt stole the show as Lex. So smugly confident but also deeply deeply insecure and mad. Corenswet and Brosnhan were picture perfect and had great chemistry.

Two surprise cameos.

Mr Terrific was great in every scene he was in. Merced and Fillion were great too. I will say the trailers really didn't show as much as I thought and it didn't feel as overstuffed as I feared it would be

I think there is room for improvement but what a great foundation to build a universe on

Thought it was really good. Loved that they jumped right into the action. Very little down time in this one.

A great kick start to a revamped DC universe.

Definitely don't need to stay for the credit scenes.

The political stuff discussed on the last few pages was a total nothing burger. Total faux outrage.

Also pay attention to the amount of times the number 3 is mentioned. Just something I noticed straight from the start

There's also 2-3 scenes that aren't kid under 10 friendly, just a heads up. They're relatively quick.

I teared up multiple times in this film. One for just character reasons and struggles I am going through with my dad. But there is a scene that was so earnest and hopeful near the end that I got choked up

Been intentionally checked out of the thread since before the reviews started releasing to protect myself from reviews. Just got out of an Amazon showing.

First impression: It was awesome. Funny, great action, good story. Definitely felt like James Gunn, from the style to the music to the dialogue. If you liked Guardians of the Galaxy, you'll like this. Without spoiling anything, I'll say it delivered across the board, and my expectations were exceedingly high. I've been wanting this Superman for a long, long time. This thing is gonna do $$$$$.

Go see it.
