    It would be savaged now, anyway.

    At the time, my reaction was that it was just a lame joke in a movie chock full of lame jokes.

    Because it was an X-Men film?

    FTW. :lol:

    ^ Well, we are in a Superman thread. I thought the original complaint was aimed at comic movie adaptations in general, not X-Men movies in particular.

    Perhaps, but your comment in context with the surrounding ones reminded me of that image. :p

    My intention here was to quote Myasishchev, not rip off his comment - I'm messing up on the quote thingy a lot lately, and it's apparently too late for me to edit this one.

    Superman: You got the sniffles, Lois?

    Lois: <sniff> No.

    Superman: Seem a little high strung.

    Lois: Hey fuck you, Clark! What the hell is that supposed to <sniff> mean?

    Superman: Oh nothing.

    Lois: Don't you have some nuns or kids that need saving?

    Superman: Nope. Not at the mo....<hears somebody calling for help> Oh wait! I'll be right back, Lois!

    Lois: Thought he'd never leave...<as she takes a bump>

    Superman: I HEARD THAT!!! <as he flies away>

    Oh I remember this post, this was back when we thought Lindsay Lohan was going to play Lois.

    Is Tylervo some kind of plagiarizing spam-bot whom resurrects people's old posts.

    According to IMDb, John Williams will be providing the score for Man of Steel. I am not sure how legitimate that is, but that would be pretty goddamn awesome if true.

    I'm guessing not legit at all given that it is IMDB. Film Music Reporter hasn't reported that yet or any of the other sites I use for score information. It would be very cool though, and perhaps Snyder's biggest coup.

    ^ He is in talks to compose "The Amazing Spider-Man" not "Man of Steel". The composing situation on MOS has been quiet. I would have thought we would have got an announcement by now but perhaps after principal is completed in Jan.

    ^Kind of interesting because Crowe was considered for Obi-Wan.
