i don't how you can talk like that, its kind of insulting...
he's a director, he went to film school, and he made a good movie like the usual suspects... he made big budget x-men movies that made shit loads of cash, but weren't exactly great, and he made superman returns...
he isn't exactly a god... there are far better directors, and he could have done with some far better writers...
i don't see what makes him that special... after all he is human just like you and me...

how do you know we dont know what we're talking about?
taking an educated guess u dont really know a lot about film making, just a watcher, like most people, right?
if he isn't a great director why did peter jackson let him direct a few scenes of king kong while he slept from exhaustion, that's having some faith in the guy right? and king kong did well in the box office, although i didnt watch it as I've seen enough of king kong for this life time

i havent made a movie no, but i do take an interest in the methods (though admittedly im a long way off making my first box office smash 😛)
i dont mind singer doing king kong, or usual suspects, he is pretty good at certain types of filmmaking, i just believe (in my humble opinion), that he's not the best when it comes to superhero movies, thats all...
just because someone is a good director doesnt mean they're good at every type of movie, like all walks of life different people are better at different aspects of their profession than others... its like playing sports, people are good at certain positions on the field, some are better at different positions...
true, I s'pose the originals are classics, but my god they make me cringe from how cheesy they are and how dated everything is, hense a sequel of some kind was SORELY needed for this franchise, bring on the sequel is what the majority of people who went to see it say, look at the reviews, the overall consensus of responses to it and you'll see more poeple liked it alot to the rest of so so's and people who hate it... that is the closest thing to fact that this film is good, it was reflected overall, end of discussion on that now, is superman returns better than the originals... everything but main plot and original superman, other than that yes it is better than the previous man of steel movies. I'm 19, i think the old one's are too dated to compete with the new age films.

mr parker i take it u hated the spiderman movie too, that's in similar formula to SR, maybe u should open your mind to a story line with a sub plot... or just go watch x men 3, a classic example of "blow stuff up" type story writing
yeah its pretty obvious I hated the man-spider movies. 😄 dont even get me started on how those movies look like they were written by a 5 year old.at least with superman returns,I wont go THAT far and say that they looked like they were written by a 5 year old.The writing for Returns wasnt THAT bad. 😛
To be honest, i do feel this version completely shits on the prior movies.
Many won't admit that even if its how they feel, due to misplaced loyalty to a deceased actor.
Ehh....It does him more honor to call a spade a spade, rather than big up the movies cuz he's a few feet under.

I will always maintain, that your best movie was the one where you got that nun pregnant.
pr the story for the originals sucked, turn the world around by flying at speeds that would really just be like a giant tornado, he changed clothes by falling out the window and doing nothing... what?
he held a plane at one end that would of broke under the strain eventually, very clever writing that is.
I like them because they are classic's, first superhero movies to break the mold, but they are crap when compared to the attentiveness to detail of new age films, im not sure what most of u guys are holding onto, but superman returns got the vote from all my friends at being better than the classics, as they plainly put it "boring" and laughable situations as well with many holes... im gona stop now but ur all idiots, there i said it.
