MOS did have More action than Thor, but that doesn't mean the individual action scenes were better.
You like Superman better than Thor, so of course you are going to enjoy watching him do his thing more than Thor.
I like Thor more than Superman, so watching Thor spinning Mjolnir in a circle and destroying Frost Giants with the greatest of ease (and his later owning of the Destroyer) was far more enjoyable to me.
I enjoyed both movies however and can understand both opinions. But that's what they are....opinions.
And let's not use general consensus...Thor did Better on RT than MOS did...does that prove it was a better movie???

I'm not just speaking about critics, but GA. It's not close, really. And MOS will likely have a better IMDB score than Thor.
I really liked the Frost giant scene, but wasn't really blown away. It's definitely in my top 5 action scenes, but not #1.
Originally posted by Golgo13Um, Thor has a 57 on Metacritic, MOS has a 55. Out of Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB, AND Metacritic, the only 1 of those that MOS wins is IMDB.

Originally posted by Golgo13On RT, Thor is 2% less in GA than MOS, with 40,000 more audience reviews...We'll see if when MOS reaches that number if it's still ahead...but saying "It's not even close" is about as lowballing as it gets.
Like I said, GA means more, since the overall number is higher. Critics screwed up, anyway.
Also saying the critics "Screwed up" is an opinion. It's one that I share with you (at least for RT), but it's still an opinion. One that we're all entitled to.

When I said "not even close", I was referring to the reviews pointing out the action. Most people said it had better action and raised the bar comparing it to Avengers. Thor isn't close to either of them, IMO.
Honestly the action was the worst part of MoS. I was shocked with how deftly Synder was handling the somber character stuff at the beginning of the movie, and how much I was enjoying myself... then it devolved into everything I feared a Zack Synder Superman would be with an 8 hour remake of Neo vs Agent Smith (with less than impressive fx I might add).

Did you crack out your Hugh Jackman glasses too early? 😎
Originally posted by Golgo13No you weren't, because you immediately followed your retort with "MOS will likely have a better IMDB score too".

I don't even know what that means. I don't like X-3. I don't like Wolverine Origins. I think The Wolverine looks meh from the trailers. You saw the Man of Steel trailers and decided you were going to like it before you even saw the movie, I don't do that, I have credibility. 😎

BTW, I was worried the whole time, if you were to read my posts and even more so with the bad reviews, so my mind wasn't made up. Snyder's pacing worries me and it was one of the biggest flaws of the movie, but that could have been more Goyer's fault than anything.

IMO at it's best First Class is the best super hero made... unfortunately it has some pretty cringe inducing low spots that work against it's overall rating. I'm sure we have some FOX executive whos job it is to undermine the director and crowbar shit into movies to thank for that.
You seen the new trailer for Elysium? It looks amazing.
Team 1 would win if it wasn't for Faora's lack of flight and heat visions. I can see this fight being either Zod or superman blitzing one another a great distance away and then Thor getting into it. Superman with thor breaks the stalemate between him and Zod and Zod goes down. Faora will be stuck playing catch up with her 'I leap long distances' hulk style travel while the rest zip by and up out of her range.
Then it's 2 VS Faora..
Ppl tend to forget that despite Faora having her one on one moments that the fight was really superman VS her and that non-ish guy who I think was named nam-ek and that despite it all superman didn't look like whatever beating he took had any lasting effect behind collateral damage.
