Superman Movie Reboot Coming From Ta-Nehisi Coates and JJ Abrams

Just days after the premiere of Superman & Lois did huge numbers for The CW, it's finally [...]

Krypton blowing up will be the lens flare to end all lens flares.

JJ Abrams and the professional victim who "felt nothing" when observing the events of 9/11 working on the next Superman movie... I don't think there's ever been a bigger preliminary NO in my life.

And I look forward to it bombing.

Krypton will actually be a lens flare. And every shot will be tilted.

I abso-freakin-lutely agree.

Earth will be visible from the surface of Krypton.

Hopefully the skip the origin bit. Not sure how many times we need to see. I'd gather 90+ of those going to see it will already know the origin. Probably more than that.

Hopefully a new superman, but nothing there inspires the thought it'll be good.

This thread needs to be properly merged with “The Things I am Tired Of Seeing In Movies” thread.

I am tired of seeing: “Coming soon...a reboot / a reimagining / a sequel / a remake/ a film by JJ Abrams.”

 

[modelcitizen]

that and i am just tired of seeing "SUPERMAN".
actually started losing interest after that Richard Pryor vehicle...gave up after 87 and barely bothered to see the 2006 one.
haven't bothered to sit through another awful one since.

As if fans weren't largely disappointed enough in Snyder's take on Superman now we'll have a sycophantic producer/ director involved and a post modern idealogue to write the script. Sounds like a winning combo! I predict a deconstructed take that undermines the ideals the character represents ala Rian Johnson.

 

[CessnaDriver]

What else can JarJar Abrams screw up? If Supes wasn't already screwed up for me now I'd be more upset.

A new report states that the Superman to headline Warner Bros., Ta-Nehisi Coates and J.J. Abrams' reboot film will be a Black Man of Steel.

Story should come first. Period. If the script is good, the rest will fall into place.

 

[Egon Spengler]

I'm kind of sick of multiple Batmen, Supermen, and Jokers and I'm tired of JJ. Hard pass.

 

[Cephus]

Any more, if it's got JarJar Abrams attached, hard pass.

 

[Jaitea]

Yep, not interested if JJ is involved, I don’t like his ‘style’

[renaissance_man]

Again with the reboots.
Plus JJ Abrams is not a great storyteller.
Pass.

Here comes another franchise for Abrams to wreck. Seriously, he's terrible as a writer/director and should just stick with Executive Producing (like with the Westworld TV series, allowing for those who actually know what the hell they're doing tell the story). But, that's just my opinion.

 

[Apollo]

Another Franchise for that talentless hack to destroy.......

In fairness, WB has already got it in a fairly destroyed state to begin with. I'm not interested in another Superman with Cavill and/or how he's done in the current DCEU any more than this thing from JJ.

JJ is the least of my concerns for this project.
