Superman's Just Been Killed at the Box Office

[Chernosoth]

Hollywood hates America so much, they made Superman a middling, non-athletic, nobody, unattractive, unknown actor whose sole qualification is that he is white (though Jewish; at least the former ) since no one - and I mean, no one - will stand for a POC Superman. And bragging about making it about immigration is the cherry on top.
I'll pass.

How does he build muscle if he has unlimited strength without exercise? And casting unknowns is standard practice to save money. They work for less and generally haven't yet developed the huge egos and drug habits of ultra wealthy actors.

The whole franchise becomes silly if we look under the hood. It could just as well be a musical with the guy in a cape and tights.

Gunn mentioned immigrants and the MAGA sheep instantly exploded in outrage.

It’s funny, the MAGA sheep used to pretend they supported immigration and only opposed illegal immigration. Now they’ve dropped the pretense and openly oppose all brown people.

But white immigrants from South Africa are celebrated by MAGA sheep. Naturally.

Your thread is officially a hilarious fail - and it's gonna get even worse.

Oh, I don't mind at all if it is - it sparked off a whole bunch of posts, some of them really good.

 

[RoryN]

Of course you don't. Spreading lies (this thread's premise) and being publicly embarrassed doesn't matter to members of a cult.

 

[wallstreetguy]

I wasn't planning to go see it, but now I think I will!

That is your right. Spend your money to spite Trump!

 

[wallstreetguy]

86 means 'throw out', it comes from kitchen staff throwing out waste food and doormen throwing out unruly customers. Only poorly educated MAGAts pretend that it means 'shoot'. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)

*"Look, some random person on the Internet agrees with me!"

at least when that murderer goes on late night TV to proclaim his innocence, he is doing it to save his skin and the hosts do it to play to their base. both will make money.You make nothing defending him.
Sad. Many such cases.

LOL As a Democrat, Rory, I'm sure you're used to doing this.

I learn from the masters

You're not even a little bit dumb.

You can edit it yourself to reflect your own bias if you wish. However be sure to include your sources. The sources already listed include multiple instances where Repubs have used '86' with gay abandon, in accordance with the original use regarding the ejection of unruly customers by door staff.

If you're so concerned with threats of violence, let's hear your views on someone posting 'The only Good Democrat is a Dead Democrat.'

Do you think there has been a time where antisemitism hasn’t existed?

There has never been a time when antisemitism was justified.

Yes, I was wondering if there was a time when antisemitism did not exist.

 

[Pad_Foot]

Well? Whenever Antisemitism started, this is the first time that I have seen it affect Superman

 

[JohnEngelman]

In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote:

"As I critically reviewed the activities of the Jewish people throughout long periods of history, I became anxious and asked myself whether for some inscrutable reasons beyond the comprehension of poor mortals such as ourselves, Destiny may not have irrevocably decreed that the final victory must go to this small nation?"

and

"Today the Jew is seen as clever, and in a certain way he has been so at all times."

In Mein Kampf Hitler said that he was initially sympathetic toward Jews. He only began to hate them when he failed in his efforts to become an artist and an architect. Living in Vienna at the time he saw plenty of Jews who succeeded where he had failed. Hated of Jews is not motivated by contempt, but by jealousy.

Hitler was an autocratic homicidal genocidal fuckhead.

People hate people. Antisemitism was invented the day the Jews invented Jesus.

Go back to Exodus and it existed.......

Anti-Semitism is real, Exodus isn’t.

This is the only Superman movie real Americans want to see. View attachment 2552883

I liked it better than man of steel.

 

[Wifetheif]

Because I am a nerd about these things Clark Kent is canonically Methodist HOWEVER as Kal-EL (superman) he worships the Krypton pantheon of gods. Yes he completely compartmentalizes his life and keeps some parts closed off completely from other parts ... I'm sensing a metaphor here.

 

[Lazaran]

Superman was a reimagined / updated Golem; full stop.

His Jewish creators wrote what they knew.

Hope that ^ helps.

Yes and in making him Midwestern Methodist his Jewish creators specifically chose an inoffensive version of Christianity without the baggage of Baptist or that faily naked at the time antisemitism of the Lutheran church or the slightly less antisemetic Catholic church of the era. Seigel and Schuster were deliberate in all their choices.

No way a stupid fucking MAGAtard goes to the movies to watch a movie where the villains are stupid fucking MAGAtards.

That makes sense.

And following up on my previous post:

Originally, Superman: couldn’t fly; he didn’t have heat / X-ray vision; he didn’t have super hearing; he didn’t have freeze breath; and he didn’t have "super" speed (he was fast, but not Flash fast).

So originally, Superman basically had super strength and invulnerability- just like a Golem.
