I don’t even count those and I probably should to be fair. Superman was legit.

Although it was so long ago I’m not surprised it slipped my memory. Same with Keaton Batman. The others after that kinda begin the slide of DC because they were, well, not as good.

But you are correct. My recent bias and PTSD from the last 20 years of DC adaptation attempts have scarred me.

I’ll admit to feeling the same way about Spider-Man before Kevin Feige took over.

I can see no reason that JJ Abrams should have the reins to any major franchise

Yep, Snyder took a different approach and DC/WB regrets it.

He's good at blowing stuff up and cool special effects

I thought that was Michael Bay? Maybe they are really the same person

This is Hollywood. It's not about creativity, it's about making $$$. He does it. HE makes a lot of $$$ for studios.

I enjoy his vision but can't stand his attention to detail.

Ummm, what fantasy, action, sci-fi movie does not have huge plot holes?

Most do but in the case of Star Wars you have to pay extra special attention

Yea I don't think that really matters to anyone except the nuts. Star Wars will

DC can’t get any worse than they already are so they have nothing to lose.

Have you seen Green Lantern? It can get worse.

Or Superman IV, or Batman and Robin, or Halle Berry's Catwoman...

The Dark Knight

Those are what I’m referring to. DC has always been a dumpster fire.

Always been in a dumpster fire? C'mon son!

Kevin Feige was a student of Richard Donner. If there was no Superman, there

You must mean the last 8 years...it hasn't been as long as you think.

Feige never took over Spider-man. Spider-man is still Sony. He just has way more

Great point. For some reason the joint venture seems to be much higher quality

I've never seen a director with less understanding of how space and time work

Thank you for saying this. Those things about JJ have always bugged me.

These are fundamentals, and I don't understand how he got the go-ahead.

His format seems more suited to TV than film
