I didn't know you haven't seen the Watchmen before now! Watchmen is really good movie and great grahpic novel. Knowing how good Watchmen is kinda makes me sad for Superman. I wonder if Zach Snyder was wrong man for the job or someone in control of movie just didn't get what Superman was about. I haven't seen the movie myself, but all my friends keep telling me Man of Steel got Superman all wrong. I really wanted a good superman movie. Now if the superhero's time! We should be getting strong comicbook movies not hints and misses.:( DC has been having a lot of misses of late

I seen bits and pieces of the movie on tv, but I never watched it as a whole. It really was a great movie, and going by reactions quite respectful to the source material. I really loved the dark comedy, and all the themes that were represented. The soundtrack was great!! I'm thinking of buying it because it reminds of the weekends in the 80's where my dad would work on his car and yard work. He would have all these classic songs playing from those decades. I knew Jeff Dean Morgan could play The Comedian terrifically because of how he did YED!John and I seen some of his work on the Starz tv show Magic City. Alas, it was still eerie to see what The Comedian does in the movie. I knew JDM could do it, but damn he still gave me chills lol.
Man, I hated the Man of Steel. It was truthfully worse than The Dark Knight Rises!! It totally got the characters of Superman/Clark, Jonathan Kent, and action completely wrong. I've been reading what Snyder and Goyer's comments on explaining why they did the things they did, and they totally didn't get

JDM is really good in Magic City. I haven't watched much recently since it is on during odd hours or when I'm busy. I just know I want an Archie vehicle in the future lol.
I too had the same feeling when I saw the trailer where Jonathan Kent says "maybe" to having those kids die in the bus. I'm used to Jonathan being protecting, but man all they did in the story was make him too overprotective. Plus it was more being "told" what a great man Clark is, and not really seeing it IMO. They really did a horrible job with Jonathan/Clark relationship. Smallville and Superman: The Movie did a far better job. Heck, I thought the three part pilot "The Last Son of Krypton" in Superman: The Animated Series was far better made in writing, directing, and etc. I too thought we are going to have to wait until I'm 50 to see another new stab at Superman done right on the big screen lol
