When Cavill Superman gets bullied by a trucker, who is actively sexually harassing his colleagues, in frustration he destroys the guys truck. When Reeve Superman did, with weeks having passed he goes back to the same diner in a premeditated way and beats the loving poo poo out of him.


Now I actually approve of both of these personally but they're both pretty dark.

It's actually worse in the Donner re-edit because he goes back in time to before he even met the trucker and then beats the poo poo out of him

Also, in addition to killing Zod, he blows up the Fortress of Solitude with Luther inside and goes back in time to before he did that. Very weird movie.

But then Superman smiles and man, I feel good. I feel good about life and all the poo poo I am seeing on screen.

Why can't Superman smile?

Ugh.

Reminds me of the creeps who ask for women to just smile more.

The Crossed comics came out in 2008 so I don’t know where you’re getting “visionary” from.

You must abhor 80s horror directors like Henenlotter and Cronenberg too, do you make these types of posts in the horror thread as well?

Oh absolutely, I'm just pointing out that the draft of Army of the Dead with the whole ZomboRape - which predates Crossed - is from 2007. As in, respected comic book writer Garth Ennis was writing out his zombie cannibal/rape fantasies a year later and nobody gave a poo poo. The culture was in a different place.

I watched Superman 1 and 2 for the first time recently, though just the theatrical cut of 2 rather than the Donner Cut. I thought it was a very strange pair of movies. Both felt like they had no real narrative thrust - especially 2, where for half the film Superman, Zod and Luthor are just doing unrelated things while entirely unaware of each other. I wouldn't say I was too fond of the traditional "boy scout" Superman as a character either.

Believe me, I'm not saying Army of the Dead will be 'the rape zombie movie' or 'Zach Snyder's symphony of rape' or 'The Jaws of sexual assault' no matter what some clickbait headline says. That's because, whatever Snyder writes that makes it to the screen, I have to assume an editor cut all the rape anyway

When you're reading about a zombie film where the zombies rape living women and make zombie-human hybrids, would you say that's part of the concept of the film, or is it just a minor detail and the rest of the zombie film was probably equally original

Oh, nevermind, I'm reading here that it's just a zombie movie where the zombies are in a quarantine zone and somebody has to be rescued from within the quarantine zone. As that's such a standard genre plot, I've got to conclude that the 'concept' must have been the single novel aspect of the film, the zombie rape babies. Ah, well, I sure am glad I didn't post smugly about how great my reading comprehension is compared to random cinemablend commenters
