I haven't seen the Donner cut, but I read that it contains a shot explicitly showing that Zod & co didn't die, but were merely thrown into the water.

James Bond is now a threat to the minds of the general audience. Bringing back the traditional classic tall and dark-haired Bond will not eliminate the threat the Bond franchise had since became due to the fact that DC's Bond is now consider a popular Bond thanks to the nonsensical success and recognition of Skyfall. You want to eliminate the threat? The answer is to feed those minions and the general public (especially here in the US) that anybody or anything can be Bond. Overtime, the Bond franchise will tear itself apart. It won't happen with DC's successor but when the Stroggs take over.

As long as Nolan is writing and producing it without Frank Miller's involvement, the film is going to be put in the trash can by all the people who are fan of the classic comics. I don't care who plays who, the only thing that matters is keeping the character faithful to the original. Otherwise, they can go and come up with something else. Batman can't defeat Superman in an extreme fair fight, that's why he's a detective. He didn't use his own physical skills to defeat Superman in Frank Miller's Batman: The Dark Knight Returns comic miniseries, later adapted into animated theatrical movie in which Peter Weller (yes, you've read that right. ROBOCOP!) voiced Batman, and he was very deadly in the role. I'm really careless about the films that are based on DC, because those comic book characters are always given to the wrong people to adapt into live-action films. I don't know why Michael Keaton gets all the praise for his role, nor Christian Bale. Bale is a very good actor, but his Batman... or Batwimp, as I call it, was a total utter disgrace. The Dark Knight Rises alone was one of the most boring and humiliating movies, like the last three Bonds, I've ever seen! I watch a movie for fun, not to "stir my mind because of its emotional circumstances in the entire playback time", I've got no time for that at all, not even a minute. Man of Steel was another pointless movie. There are only two Superman movies for me, Superman and Superman II. And for me, actually Batman is no "Dark Knight", that name is for people who prefer something emo... very gothic... Batman is alternately, for me, known as The Caped Crusader. He's the man who just fights the crime, beats the hell out of the bad guys, does everything what is right and fades away into the shadows, smiling, knowing that he did the world a favour. That's what a hero is!

The Drake knows his onions :!: Hollywoodies could learn a lot from his insight on superhero films. This garbage character development premise is ridiculous and it only goes to these directors and producers looking for Oscar buzz, which they never will receive from doing a proper all out fun, escapist, superhero film. Cavill bore me as Superman. Affleck will suck as Batman. Put these 2 together, and you get a disaster after the second weekend at the box office.

You might as well give this scene an Oscar worthy.

The Coup, from director John Erick Dowdle and starring Owen Wilson, Pierce Brosnan and Lake Bell, has begun shooting on location in Thailand.
Thailand International Film Destination Festival Debuts in Bangkok
The film tells the story of an American family living in Southeast Asia who find themselves caught in the middle of a violent military uprising. Wilson and Bell play the American husband and wife, and Brosnan a heroic government operative. From what producer Steve Alexander says, it sounds like Brosnan's one of the good guys…
“Having Pierce step into the role of a mysterious and ultimately heroic government operative is the perfect compliment to Owen’s everyman dilemma. We’re thrilled to have him on board.”

What's being lost in all of this is that Broccoli's main simian squeeze Cr-egg has relatively NOTHING in the works except for Bond :!: Bond 24 (announced)
James Bond
Bond 25 (announced)
James Bond
The Girl Who Played with Fire (announced)
Mikael Blomkvist (rumored) That's all folks, as Porky Pig says................the studios have shunned him, and he sucks to begin with, YET Pierce's career, with the help of FBF's Hollywood influence, is REBOOTED in action and spy films. Studios WANT Pierce............they now dismiss Cr-egg, finally realizing the cavernous dolt is devoid of talent and is ugly as sin :!:

Worry about Pierce's upcoming actioners instead. Leave James Bond to the likes of Paul Heyman in terms of appearance.

Thanks for the credit, BJ. I couldn't agree more with that character development garbage and deeper story trash Hollywood is green-lighting. If one makes a flick containing so-called action sequences (shot only in shaking cameras aspect, makes it utterly non-sense) then we get dozens of scenes where all the characters hold each others' hands, and start crying, regretting, moaning, groaning, wimpering, mourning, you name it, and expect to receive an Academy Award, then they are building up castles in the sky. Baboon Green-Horny-Vegetable of Evil Alliance (EON) was hoping for Shite-fail to win an oscar for best picture, then she's proven wrong. You either make it something totally Shakespearean play-like, or something totally action, and clearly Bond (at least the character Sean Connery and his four successors played) we know should be nothing but an action/thriller. People take the word "gritty" for something that is Bourne-like, they don't even understand what it is. Gritty is something like Rambo or any Chuck Norris or Dirty Harry movie, not a piece of waste that copies everything from the Bourne movies... Back to Batman, perhaps the universe they're portraying is changed, but the atmosphere is still the same as Nolan's. Why did they pick Affleck I will never understand... or will never know... have no idea at the slightest! I hope the 2017 Batman Reboot wouldn't be Nolan's baby, as I want either Paul Dini, or Bruce Timm, or Frank Miller, or Greg Rucka, or Mark Millar to step in and write down the screenplay, and bring some 80s action movie director to handle it, John McTiernan is the best choice! Simon West wouldn't be bad either! What else? Bring in a composer that does awesome scores, namely Theodore Shapiro for example, doesn't just do a rip-off of Hans Zimmer garbage where the soundtrack is just sounds of echoes that's anything other than music, even the scream of any car engine would do a better a music than this Bourne-styled music which also inspired the later Hollywood movies, Hans Zimmer copied it for Dark Knight trilogy, as well... Hollywood should come to its senses and make up its own mind! It's our time to takeover the media again and wimps like Jutin ***ber or Twilight shite should be expelled at once!

A generation only lasts for 20 years, and the ones who admire that wimpering "humane" (hell, they don't even know what that means) characters are slowly disappearing. Thanks to Sly Stallone, he's starting to serve as an influence for the newer generations and some products have started to copy his style, which I love! The next generation will hate CR-egg like the Connery fans in the 60s hated Lazenby for being "emotional". And people will know how awesome Pierce Brosnan as Bond was, however as Bond is gone forever once the damage is done and made history with it, the other franchises should be getting more recognition than they got, namely other spy movies and flicks, a la Flint, or Danger Man (TV Series), etc. Who the hell cares about Dragon Tattoo or Cowboys/Aliens thing? CR-egg outside his EON production is nothing more than a B-Movie actor. Neither of his movies outside CR/QoS/SF-enterprise made money at the box office. They were either rated as average or just bombed.

Me myself am tired of Oh-bama yikes!! Where's Ronald Reagan?! Bring someone like him and revive the golden age!! As for the 007 franchise, I don't think CR-egg's departure will change anything... but as soon as that bloody feminist steps down and gets herself kicked out of her father's enterprise, then the series might be repaired regarding to the dozens of damages that woman brought to. But, it has to be someone who has the balls to clean up the damages, and clearly Michael G. Wilson is out of his mind, his son though likes Classic Bond, though I doubt he has enough strength to bring the franchise back to its roots as the modern-day fans hate the first 20 movies and only prefer CR-egg in the role... and his portrayal... not to mention, that Ben Dishwater version of Q... DISGRACE!

Of course I did! Not because of Alec Baldwin's Jack Ryan but Connery's manly man persona and the cold war setting.

But I always thought the never kills was over done if you throw a guy through a building somebody is probable going to be killed even if by some miracle the bad guy in as indestructible as superman
Having seen the clip, I can see how he had no choice but to break his vow. But some people here are going beyond that and saying that he shouldn't feel any remorse, or even that he should feel happy about it. That would be a radical change to the character of Superman.

He broke his vow in the story Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow? by Alan Moore and Curt Swan, the last story before John Byrne's '80s reboot of the character. In that story, Superman is so torn up by his decision that he walks into a room of blue kryptonite, permanently robbing himself of his powers. "Why are the noblest people always the ones most troubled by conscience?" asks Lois Lane, rhetorically. The answer should be obvious. They are noble because they are troubled by conscience. By contrast, those who are utterly convinced of their own righteousness are more likely to become the villain than the hero. How many serial killers and terrorists have believed that they were simply punishing the wicked, and that their victims had it coming?
