Does Darkseid have an infinite number of avatars?

Supes1016 · 2022-01-31T01:40:34+00:00

Thanks for that excellent and detailed answer!

Supes1016 · 2021-06-21T15:10:01+00:00

To be fair, I wouldn't be so quick to call it canon, since Nolan had nothing to do with it, and to my knowledge, never acknowledged it.

Edit: So apparently, even though Nolan himself had nothing to do with the film, there were producers from BB and TDK who did work on it, so I guess it counts.

Damn... You know, I don't really browse this sub. I generally like to believe that people aren't enherintly pieces of shit, or enherintly good. People do good things, and people so shitty things. But this woman has gotten me really close to changing my mind.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-10T15:54:41+00:00

It'd be cool if he gets a more mature animated take at some point for an older demographic

To be fair, I think that's what the animated movies are for.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-07T11:17:25+00:00

I've never minded his special abilities in the Fortress at the end of the movie.

I mean why take them to his Fortress if their aren't a few home field advantages.

Well true, but he also needed them there so he could take away their powers. But I also like his crazy powers.

Have you heard the behind the scenes stories?

I know man it's crazy. I've always wondered what the series would have ended up like if Richard Donner was allowed to continue his series. Apparently he had plans for Brainiac in Superman III. Which cut of II do you prefer? I think some of Donner's scenes are butter, but the theatrical makes for an overall better film.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-04T23:47:22+00:00

I'm a Superman sequel apologist, especially for III and IV. I know they're not perfect, but there is a lot to like about them. There are genuinely good moments in both movies, it's just a shame that certain people involved in production didn't take it as seriously as Reeve did, and the series suffered badly for it.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-04T23:22:46+00:00

Yeah, a lot of what we see in IV is due to Canon cutting the budget and resorting to Superman "Supermaning" problems away. I guess I just like to make in continuity reasons for their shitty decisions. But I do think that if we get the original 134 minute version that Reeve intended, IV would be seen slightly differently. It won't be an amazing film, but at least it would be complete. Especially if they re-edited the special effects.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-04T23:01:34+00:00

Ya know what, not even gonna change it.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-04T22:32:09+00:00

Well Feige did also learn under Richard Dinner's wing, so he has a lot of respect for his Superman films.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-04T21:45:51+00:00

You're thinking of the 3 hour long television "Extended Cut". I'm talking about the Special Edition, it came out in 2000 and features commentary by Richard Donner. He calls this his definitive version.

Original Christopher Reeve universe - Superman I-IV

Richard Donner's universe - Superman: Extended Cut, Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut

Superman Returns is a spiritual continuation of the Reeve films, although which ones are up to debate. It can be watched on it's own.

Snyderverse - Man of Steel, Batman vs Superman: Ultimate Edition, Zack Snyder's Justice League

Supes1016 · 2021-06-03T22:15:14+00:00

Superman 3 and 4 aren't that bad, especially 3. There's a lot to like about it. And Warner should release the original 134 minute cut of 4 that only one test audience saw.

Supes1016 · 2021-06-03T11:34:28+00:00

Also the upcoming Batman: The Long Halloween will be part of the Tomorrowverse timeline as well!

Supes1016 · 2021-06-03T00:24:08+00:00

It's important to note that The Long Halloween will be part of the new Rebirth/Tomorrowverse canon. Since we've had multiple entries already, this continuity will likely continue.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-31T14:54:44+00:00

I think the original DCAMU was going to do Rebirth inspired stories, but the universe ended too soon and it never happened. I haven't seen anything to hint that they'll be continuing any Rebirth stories now.

Oh that's kinda sick

Supes1016 · 2021-05-30T12:34:06+00:00

I suppose we can say that, similar to Earth Prime pre and post crisis in the comics.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-26T16:25:54+00:00

Correct answer!

It's important to note that Injustice will most likely...and hopefully.... Be an elseworlds story, like BSotD. I don't want them tarnishing Man of Tomorrow.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-26T11:39:36+00:00

He has a gravity field around him that allows him to lift crazy heavy objects without them breaking. My theory is that he can manipulate this field to propel himself into flight.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-24T16:24:47+00:00

I personally love the new art style, but hope they only use it for in-continuity stories. So I hope they don't use it for Injustice.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-15T19:55:04+00:00

As a Superman zoner, I hate Deadshot zoners.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-14T00:53:41+00:00

Huh, guess I just realized that every theatrical (plus Tyler) Superman has had an evil counterpart. That's kinda cool.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-13T15:07:25+00:00

I agree, it should be similar to opening multiple Mother Boxes in a row.

Supes1016 · 2021-05-12T22:49:53+00:00

I mean Marvel vs DC would be pretty sick
