Superman Returns stayed true to the original franchise. It was a modern homage to the old, and it wasn't amazing for everyone, but I wouldn't call it the worst movie ever. As for Man Of Steel: it wasn't horrible, but it also wasn't great. It was pretty dull. It had no fun whatsoever, expect in destroying every skyscraper imaginable at the end, which was just overkill. It just lacked that equivalent pride evident in the old Superman movies of their time. Thank goodness they're making a Superman/Batman movie, because if there was a straight Man Of Steel sequel next, I guarantee you people that gave the first a shot wouldn't be returning in the same numbers for a second.

what do u base that on? The majority of people thought superman returns was lame. Majority of people thought this one was good.
