Superman
It’s still so good seeing this at home after experiences it at IMAX
It a different feeling going someplace that isn’t your home and stepping into that room with that larger then life screen
Then when it turns on it feels like you are actually in the movie and witnessing the events as if your a bystander in Metropolis or soaring by Superman side if that’s your thing😉
I still felt all the same feelings at home but I highly recommend IMAX
I noticed on a second watch that everybody has an opinion or reaction to every little or major event
You don’t just witness acts you witness other characters even “extras” reactions to them
That moment when Luthor is shouting “1A 1A…” to order Ultraman to keep hitting Superman, you actually see he employees rooting or even enjoying this like they are winning the football finals
This just shows how James Gunn can make a comic book non-fiction movie feel even more realistic
I love everything about Clark and Lois 15 min dialogue scene that I’m sure many people have complimented, so I’ll talk about what happens after
When the news says Superman is the enemy mostly everyone believes it except Lois who trust him
Then when he wants to turn himself in to save Krypto, the dog she didn’t know about till now, her reaction is “it just a dog”, this shows how much Lois cares about Clark and doesn’t understand why he would put himself in danger
But when Clark explains that Krypto would be scared by himself she realises how determined he is to help someone he loves that she hugs him and Clark realising that she understands him confesses how he feels but Lois is not sure how she feels, besides loving the person he is
Later in the film she sees Clark again after getting Mr. Terrific’s help to save him from the trap he willingly walk into and now is weakened by kryptonite poisoning and the battle that he just won for he’s freedom
Clark still shares with her how much he loves that she was here for him when he needed her
And at that moment Lois knows she needs to get him some place safe so she take him to he’s parent’s farm
where with her reporter skills learns and understands how Clark became the man he is today the man she admits to herself she loves
Then after Lex is taken care of and the city is saved, they meetup again
An as Superman he promises her the interview that he previously denied, which translates into he can’t live without her and now knowing that she loves him, shares her feelings with him
I think it safe to say James Gunn has made the healthiest relationship I’ve ever seen in a superhero or action movie for that matter
Their is so many ways I wish I could go on more about this masterpiece like the way James uses media to tell the story, how almost everyone believes it and one of these day I need to talk more about the best Lex Luthor ever
