I don't think BKB would like Man of Steel very much. Its too serious for his liking. Even i found it a bit too serious. But still overall a fantastic first movie:)

Saw man of steel in O2 Cineworld. Place was packed. Superscreen had only the front row seats left by the time i went in. We had to leave and ask for next showing because you cant sit that close to a screen. Thats stupid even having seats placed there. So saw a 2D showing instead. Place got packed within 5mins.

i see 700mil+ potential here WW

So just saw it...in a nutshell i thought it was amazing. The performances were all brilliant. I really loved Faora. She whooped superman's ass and look extremely hot doing it. Kevin Costner and Russell Crowe showed their talent and stole the movie with their performances. Great actors. Micheal Shannon was great. I don't see the criticisms of him the people have here in the movie. Amy Adams was good as was Diane Lane. Needs more to work with though. Henry Cavill is Superman now. You can't deny it. He is what will be ingrained in the younger generation now. He was brilliant. I liked how they showed his journey to becoming the Clark Kent we will see in the sequel. To me it seemed more an origin movie of Clark Kent rather than superman. You had better take your asthma inhaler because the action is BREATHTAKING! The movie had loads of action, like tonnes of it. More than Transformers 3 and definitely more and better than the Avengers action. It was seriously top notch. To see Superman go all out was something i have been wanting to see all my life and it really hit the spot. Effects were great too. Zod fight at the end was like the best fight i have ever seen. It was miles better than the end Matrix Revolutions fight between Smith and Neo. the movie was extremely emotional. Anyone that says otherwise has a serious perception problem. To see Clark remember his childhood was very upsetting and you really felt for him when he said to his dad that couldn't he just keep pretending to be his son. He didn't want to be like this. All his life he has been alone. Now there is one gripe that i have that probably hinders my final score slightly. The movie took it self too seriously. I love serious movies, hence my love for the Dark Knight trilogy...BUT even that movie had its laughs....scenes that were memorable. There were some laughs in this movie but more like little giggles rather than laugh out loud moments. The truck scene at the bar was probably the funniest thing in the whole movie. A lot of people laughed then but the rest there were just some giggles here and there. It needs to lighten up slightly. I love serious but there is a limit. I can understand some people not accepting this incarnation of Superman because of this but i don't think it brings the overall quality of the movie down too much. As for the scene that got everyone talking... I can see them lightening the sequel up abit with Clark Kent having now joined the Daily Planet. other than that i thought it was a brilliant movie....best action ever for a superhero movie but not better than The Dark Knight Trilogy. i would put it just a bit lower than the Avengers. TDK trilogy- 10/10 Avengers - 9/10 Man of Steel 8.5/10 i went with 4 other friends....one said he believes now that a Superman movie cant be done. He thought it had pacing issues and that it jumped from one scene to the next too quick. His ranking was 6/10 Another said he would have liked it to be light hearted and that the action was non-stop...he wanted a longer rest inbetween fights though he was amazed by the action. It was too serious for his liking. his ranking was 6.5-7/10 The other two agreed with me... and gave it a higher rating of 9/10 and said they loved it and that they will defo watch it again soon. after a few years of thinking, i feel i rated this movie too highly. It is not as bad a some people here think but its not as good as i used to either. I still love the action but yes it does swallow you up a little. 7.5/10 B

WOW! just got back from seeing it. Will post my thoughts in the review section.

113 OW is what i predicted. Hope its on the dot...though i would like it to be higher:)

this thread is not on fire anymore. Im concerned how the legs will be for Man of steel. 54% drop on Monday or over 60% like Prisoner of Askaban

Love how RTH never uses full stops or commas in his posts

I wouldn't say almost..I would say you pretty much did! Thnx a lot

TDKR- best film I have seen this decade. Starting from 2011 so doesn't say much:p ' long ways to go yet precious'I tend to only lean towards movies that are memorablelike blockbusters. Smaller movies are pretty forgettable for me, though I did enjoy the hell out of drive. Beautifully made and acted

So no idea on Saturday gross?

seeing this tomorrow ..well today in the afternoon in the O2. Cant fucking wait! got my hot topic MoS t shirt ready to wear. F.Y.I folks, Lidl is selling Man of Steel T-shirts for 4 quid. i might pop out in the morning to see if they still got em.

been eating shawarmas and donors for years. U.K has had them for decades Maybe they are rare in the U.S

will you give it another go in theaters or wait till blu ray?

Walmart probably got some added unknown incentives

44mil??? MELTDOWN ALERT!

The Batman ‏@TheBatman30 May If the “S” on Superman’s shirt means “hope,” then the “bat” on my shirt means “Superman doesn’t know how to read.”

Man wish my mate didnt have to go to a cricket match, otherwise could have been seeing it Saturday afternoon. Sunday wait seems long

imagine if there is a huge drop for Saturday...Imagine the meltdowns..my own included

phantom menace line

original plan for that movie was to have Zod. who knows what that would have been like

IM3 had 8pm previews that were added to Friday gross. Man of steel doing $45mil without 7pm previews is brilliant.

Well this 100mil+ OW certainly lifts heart after all those reviews. Looks like come Sunday, the DC movieverse will be official
