There's got to be stuff Snyder left on the editing room floor that will make Man of Steel even better...

It's a great movie for what we've wanted out of Superman, but they jammed so much in there and bounced around so much, I wonder if we'll eventually get a Zack Snyder extended cut that dives into some of these things a little deeper...

I loved it, but they tried to cram too much into 2 hours and 20 minutes... It felt like a movie that could've easily supported an extra 20 minutes of footage.

i thought i read the directors cut was 3 and change, idk.

 

[rell826]

3 hours 23 minutes

An extended cut at home on Blu would be the fantastic.
In theatre, it might drag a bit.

He pulled off the extended with Sucker Punch, I'm guessing he can do it again.

[h2]DEADPOOL Movie Update From the Guys Who Wrote It[/h2]
Joey Paur 2 months ago Movie Movie Like on Facebook Tweet to Twitter Submit to Reddit

Ryan Reynolds has been talking a lot about the Deadpool movie recently, mostly saying it's all up to the studio at this point. He thinks it just might be a little too hardcore and R-rated for them. The script for the film was written by Rhett Reese and  Paul Wernick, who are currently making the press rounds for their latest film project G.I. Joe: Retaliation. They've already confirmed that  Reynolds and director Tim Miller  are both still attached to the project, but in a recent interview with /Film they discussed the script they wrote in which Reese said, 

The way I would describe it is to say it’s the best script we’ve ever written and probably ever can write. To us it’s the pinnacle of what we are capable of and we are super proud of it. It will definitely pose a risk, just because it’s an R rated Deadpool  and most comic book movies aren’t, but we just think it’s a phenomenal opportunity and we’ve got a wonderful star in Ryan Reynolds and a wonderful director in Tim Miller and we’ve got some wonderful test footage that he did for it. The script is sitting there, we just want it.

Damn... the best script they will ever write?! That's pretty high praise for a person's thoughts on his own work. They go on to joke around that they basically write what they know, saying Deadpool is "ultimately a self hating, irreverent, vile lunatic." It's a project they're very passionate about, and they are doing everything they can to try and move it into production, revealing that they are even talking to comic writer Mark Millar who's currently a Marvel movie consultant over at FOX.

You may or may not already know that the script they wrote has leaked online, and when if they were fine with it leaking they said,

We really couldn’t be. I mean we didn’t have a choice. It leaked and we couldn’t do anything about it and for a minute we were appalled and then the reaction was great, so we were excited and now I guess it doesn’t really matter.

I haven't read it because I don't want to spoil it for myself I want to wait for the movie. But if the project ends up being officially killed off I'll read it, and then wish I hadn't because of its awesomeness. The last thing said by Wernick is,

Wait until you’ve seen Tim’s test. It’s brilliant.

He says that as if there's a chance we'll see this screen test that's been shot for the film! It makes me wonder if it's something they'll show off at Comic-Con later this year like Marvel did with Ant-Man. That sure would be awesome! There's no doubt that the fans would love and appreciate seeing it! Make it happen!

FOX needs to get their **** together with the movies. I expect cohesiveness and consistency at a higher level at the least starting with DoFP.

Not the biggest Deadpool fan but they should take the risk with the rated R label. I haven't read the script and only will if they shoot the movie down. Don't have much faith in Ryan Reynolds anymore though. Maybe he can redeem himself with this. Not sure RIPD will change my mind much.

[quote name="JohnnyRedStorm"]I like it better for De Niro and the look back to the old days since I'm Italian and my grandparents came over and lived during that era. Overall, I'd love to watch it in order with De Niro's scenes first then segue into part one. Some network used to do that I think. Maybe Bravo idk.[/quote] if it weren't for the fact that you hate the Lakers, we might have just become best friends, as I'm also Italian and my family came over in 1897.

is before midnight any good?

first two are classic

MOS was cool. So finally getting my thoughts in a post:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

The action is truly it's saving grace. 1st half with all the story wasn't good for me as executed but had interesting ideas. I found myself thinking I could've watched a movie just about Russel Crowe on a dying alien planet riding dragons and what not as it started completely forgetting this is about Superman.

The flashback scenes went a bit too many but they served their purpose. If it wasn't for Crowe as Jor-El I would've had a paragraph of hate for the Johnathan Kent in this movie. Terrible values instilled in this dude. Had to wash my mind out with an ep of Smallville. That death scene wasn't touching and that "maybe" answer was atrocious. The genetically engineered slant made it hard for me to fully see Zod as villain though, son was just made that way. Like that's a whole topic movies have already revolved around specifically and even more so since it falls under nature vs. nurture. Overall, I didn't care for much of the story aspects in this. Supes being lost in life, why Zod's ppl came back. That 1st hr and a half was just me preparing for the action.

Boy did they deliver. By the time they stopped the world engines from terraforming the planet I was like damn they done ****** up Metropolis more than the Avengers messed up NYC. Plus the killing of so many ppl didn't even have me mad, I kinda felt it was a good thing and did kind of make it more realistic. None of that Supes saves the day with like 1 fatality. This was some real destruction. Plus this is after they ****** up Smallville Somebody else said in the MOS thread but that whole fight scene reminded me of the one in Thor but better, just like Metropolis stuff was better than the alien invasion in Avengers. So I'm thinking Supes is gonna snap Zod's neck and be out. Nah, that fight scene was dope. I aint see something like that since Norton's Hulk killed the Abomination in Harlem and that's what the fight was similar to but better.

Action wise, I can at least say WB/DC saw what Marvel did, learned from it after their **** ups, and finally managed to produce something better in that category. So for me the movie was pretty good. The supporting cast was forgettable (Fishburne aint need to be in this), at best I can say it was cool to see Detective Stabler go out like that, not sure if Jenny/Jimmy Olsen even showed up in this like I heard rumored, the easter eggs sucked, etc. I feel all of those extreme critical reviews are going too far. This wasn't perfect or even really great but it was nowhere near trash especially with where we're at superhero movie wise. When you hear stuff like Superman kills or Lois knows his id right away and other stuff eyebrows will be raised but when I saw it I didn't care about all the death, him killing in that situation, or little ticks a comic fan would be livid about. If anything if they had cut out some of stuff earlier this would be even better and right around SM2. So I'd def put this above Begins, IM, and Raimi's Spidey. Overall in superhero films, it's up there but I'll wait awhile and see how I feel about the movie in retrospect and then grade it's replay value and my desire to even want to watch it again (which is even more important).

Oh and I'd bang both of Kal-El's/Clark's moms

But the branch of the family that produced me went into cooking/restauranting, which is definitely where I get it from.
