I love when people write these articles like “what’s wrong with Superman” wondering why he isn’t as popular as he was and why Batman and other characters have surpassed him in popularity because they always bring up Christopher Reeve and question why comics and films can’t just make the character like Reeve’s version. And when I say “love” I mean I hate it when people write these articles because they literally answer their own question.
Maybe the reason Superman isn’t as popular as Batman anymore is because while Batman has been allowed to change with the times from West to Keaton to Bale gatekeeping nerds have decided Superman can only be this perpetually smiling two dimensional 50s throw back alpha male.
Thank you so much @teamsupes for saying what I have been trying to put to words for years.
I mean compare the first four Batman films to the first four Superman, even with the critically maligned Batman and Robin you at least still have a film that attempted to go in a bold way that was removed from what Burton did.
Whereas with pretty every Superman from 1983-2006 you have films that tried way to hard to mimic what Donner had done and failed, or succeeded with Donner had done previously but unfortunately don’t stand well as films in their own right (Superman Returns I am looking at you).
Look I love the first two Dick Donner films, I own both of them on Blu-ray and I still find them to be classics after all these years. But, I am so thankful that Zack Snyder came around and went in different directions with the character and lore, here and there.
With both Man Of Steel and Batman V Superman, Snyder really succeeded in making Superman connect with the 21st century in a way that I didn’t think was possible and I am very thankful for that.
I love the Dick Donner films but I have already seen them and can go back to them whenever I want to, I want to see new dimensions of my favorite character explored, dimensions that I know have been seen in many various comics. Burton and Nolan did a great job with their reinterpretation of Batman, so whi is such a problem when Snyder does it with Superman?
as a kid i always thought gotham was in michigan because i thought it was a midwestern city like chicago, and there was always shit going down at the pier or in abandoned factories and if michigan has anything it’s a lot of piers and abandoned factories. anyway turns out it’s probably in jersey.
other good reasons for gotham to be in michigan:
one of the most heavily forested states in the country with 20 million acres of forests oh my god poison ivy would be so powerful the second she got outside city limits fuck
there’s 20 million acres of this and she’s got plant powers no wonder they want her on lockdown
there are more than 6,000 shipwrecks in the great lakes how many supervillain origin stories is that good for
“63 commercial ports handled 173 million tons of cargo in 2006″ aka holy shit that is a lot of opportunities for boatcrimes
mr freeze has a pretty tragic origin story but if you had to put up with michigan winters and then some motherfucker showed up freezing the town outside of freezing season you would have no mercy
MOTHERFUCKER I JUST PUT MY SNOWBLOWER IN STORAGE DO I LOOK LIKE I NEED THIS SHIT RIGHT NOW
imagine batman giving someone directions by pointing to his hand
“we believe killer croc is somewhere around here” he says pointing to the tip of his thumb
good fucking luck finding stats on abandoned buildings in michigan but holy shit are there a lot of them, no wonder they’re always having fights in abandoned factories and empty warehouses
“kitty why are you including that map of the railroads like it’s relevant” because when you’re trying to sleep and you hear a train in the distance it’s fucking spooky okay
i have no evidence that traincrime is an issue for batman i’m just saying the ambiance is there
our most famous abandoned theme park is dinosaur themed so I GUESS WE KNOW WHERE HE GOT THE T-REX
we have a special kind of ice cream called superman ice cream and i think bruce would be really bitter about it and that’s hilarious
there are nine different species of bat in michigan and they have all lived in my kitchen at some point
michigan is full of mines both abandoned and active and bats love them
put an abandoned train station next to and abandoned mine and you have a totally plausible CRIMEZONE
and none of this is getting into the most compelling evidence
put a city in michigan and watch how fast no one gives a fuck
gotham, MI needs batman because who the fuck else is going to help
batman please save us from the cops and the state government
I always thought that Gotham was Chicago and Metropolis was New York City.
that’s what i thought but apparently metropolis is new york during the day and gotham is new york at night which means the dc universe has three new yorks which i think even new yorkers can agree is too many
when i was a kid i used to slide down the slopes made by snowplows on my stomach which i feel is relevant to the penguin
there’s always a ton of cars from the 30s driving around gotham which makes perfect sense if it’s in michigan because that’s when we made cars and we’re not over it
rick snyder and his emergency managers are basically supervillains and i want batman to punch them
michigan is closer to kansas which means bruce can visit clark’s parents and then they’re emailing clark about what a nice young man he is and there’s nothing clark can do about it
if someone said that a city in michigan had been hijacked by an evil clown that was only stopped when a man in an animal costume kicked him in the face would you even blink
this is meadow brook hall in rochester mi
this is the charles t fisher house
here’s the james scott residence
welcome to michigan hope u like houses with turrets and fucked up clowns and evil men poisoning the water
