sambafreak13 Nino G • 18 hours ago see moreCavill looks PERFECT as Supes, but in terms of performance I'd take Reeve and Routh over him (even if Routh was mostly copying Reeve. there are worse people to copy)SidneySmutt sambafreak13 • 10 hours ago see moreSo what if he was? No one gives a shit when Karl Urban copies DeForest Kelley.
LaRusso Nino G • 20 hours ago see moreI don't care how buff Cavill is, as Clark and Superman the guy is a charmless, block of wood. Christopher Reeve he is not, George Reeves he is not, Kirk Alyn he is not, hell, Dean Cain (who was a great Clark and decent Superman) he is not. Cavill sucks and his Superman is COMPLETELY wrong.ANDS! LaRusso • 19 hours ago see moreHow is Cavill supposed to make "If I wanted it, you'd be dead already. . ." sound charming?
It is not even close to his fault that he was stuck in a dour couple of Superman movies.JohnWickThisWayComes ANDS! • 8 hours ago see moreI must disagree, sir - where dialog and the director allowed he was quite charming - and he also has the gravitas to portray the Last Son of Krypton - I like Routh, but he seemed more like Superboy. Hopefully in the next movie Cavill will get to have a lighter tone and they will leave the dour to the Batman where it belongs.Knittingknerd ANDS! • 10 hours ago see moreI wanted to kick whoever wrote that line of dialogue. Superman (normal not Snyder shit Superman) doesn't kill people. Or threaten to kill people.jmd Knittingknerd • 38 minutes ago see moreThose of us who know that Superman and Batman don't kill are becoming the minority. The values and ideals that the characters represented in the Silver and Bronze Ages are slowly being supplanted by execs (and the shills who are in their pockets) who don't give a damn about the characters outside of what can be done to exploit their longtime popularity for personal gain. I can imagine Superman watching Man of Steel or Dawn of Justice and walking out of the theater in disgust at what's been done to them (right past somebody in the front row who's giggling at the carnage).Alexander Stallwitz Knittingknerd • 3 hours ago see moreFrankly, I am still sticking to my theory that the Batman Vs Superman universe is an prequel to one of the bad universes like the Justice Syndicate or something like thatsolitaire Knittingknerd • 4 hours ago see moreWell, there is a long line of people waiting to kick Goyer....I'd buy a tent and wait...but yeah, I know what you mean. I know the line is supposed to convey his disgust for the fight....basically saying "I don't want to hurt you...but I'm Superman, you can't injure me and you will get hurt if this continues." but it comes off hash.
Squiddly LaRusso • 19 hours ago see moreYou forgot Routh, who was great but in an average film. It's wierd as Cavill has charm in Man From Uncle so why is he like this as Superman? Maybe Snyder's directing?gun will travel Squiddly • 18 hours ago see moreTotally agree about Cavill in Men from Uncle. He looks like Superman, but not in SnydervisionMike Squiddly • 19 hours ago see moresquiddly, Routh channeled Christopher Reeve exquisitely. That's about itSquiddly saintsaucey • 18 hours ago see moreDepressing? Did we watch the same film? I thought it was great.saintsaucey Squiddly • 16 hours ago see moreDepressing may not be the right word. But it was drap and drearySquiddly saintsaucey • 16 hours ago see moreI thought it was fun. Cavill and co seemed to be having fun with it.
Simbo1970 saintsaucey • 10 hours ago see more"Way to depressing a flick" do you mean that Man From Uncle depressed a flick or was a journey towards depressing a flick? Now if you mean "Way too depressing a flick" then that almost makes senseJ. Accuse saintsaucey • 4 hours ago see moreI wish we had universal editing privileges so we could go around fixing other posters typos. So much more constructive than just being a wise ass.saintsaucey J. Accuse • 4 hours ago see moreBut then what would stop me from changing "I wish we had universal editing privileges so we could go around fixing other posters typos. So much more constructive than just being a wise ass." To "I wish 'I had a big black cock in my' ass"
Darth_Augustus LaRusso • 12 hours ago see moreA lot of people forget how good Dean Cain was in that role. If they ever needed someone to portray the gruff old superman it would be him.saintsaucey Darth_Augustus • 4 hours ago see moreLoved lois and clark. Lane smith will forever be perry white to me
Acappellaman LaRusso • an hour ago see moreI don't think the problem is Cavill. It's mostly the script and director telling him what to do. He does have talent, and he's got the look nailed perfectly.Backward Galaxy LaRusso • 3 hours ago see moreSadly, I'm at the point where I have to agree with you. Apologists will point to the lousy material he has to work with, and they're not wrong about that, but I've never found Cavill's Clark or Superman to have a single shred of charisma or natural charm. I found his performances equally underwhelming in The Tudors and The Man from UNCLE. He was a little better in Immortals. It's especially disappointing because when he's just being himself, like in interviews or that recent "prank" he pulled on the Suicide Squad cast at Comic-Con, you can see that it's there. It's available to him. He just hasn't been able to carry it over into his performances.Bolgua LaRusso • 4 hours ago see moreCavill is good, but Snyder destroyed his Superman to the point that I can never accept his Superman. Snyder made sure that there are no redeeming qualities to his Superman. He did that as a middle finger to fans. He did the same with Batman.
Knittingknerd Nino G • 10 hours ago see moreThere is something about Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent I just can't stand. I don't know what it is. The only part I liked about his parts in Batman Versus Superman was when Lois was in the tub and he jumped in ( because frankly that was sexy as hell). Clark is unassuming and Cavill is a very good looking man, very muscular man- the two images never merged. Routh was a good Superman AND Clark. Dean Cain, good as both. Reeves was perfect as both.
