Ok, so now it is clear that Zack Snyder is going not only for a remake, however clever and ground breaking, but a remake none the less of Superman 2. It’s also clear that Snyder is at best unwittingly and at worst blatantly copying Smallville. Look I get that he is going to do his own version and it will be visually cool and all but “COME ON.” With Superman there are already so many known’s, and with the villain there was a chance to throw in something new and fresh to take a Superman story to places no one has gone before on screen.
But NNOOOhh, Snyder decided that he is going to make a really Sweet, awesome, cool, unique, and fresh, “REMAKE” WTF. I already know what some of you will say. I have seen the comments already. “This is just the first movie, and this will lead into the next film and the one after that.” The way I see it; there is no tomorrow. We need an awesome villain NOW! Not one in an imaginary “next film.”
Hey, Zack it’s not too late. You haven’t shot anything yet. Rethink this! Do you really want to remake Superman II, or copy off Smallville’s ideas? Rethink the villain. It doesn’t even take any significant imagination. There are so many villains to choose from. Read a freaking comic.
