I’ve never really recovered from the ‘the S on Superman’s chest doesn’t stand for Superman’ thing so anything else weird that happens I just shrug off.

Haven't those things already gone through cases of people trying to claim copyright of notes, phrases, dance steps etc.

bob dobbs is dead posted:this is called 'superman movie peeps having bad ideas' In comics it was established twenty years ago that the emblem is supposed to be an old native american symbol of healing and unity that just happens to look like an S.  Before that, it was officially a carving on the hilt of a sword that existed since the dawn of time. Anything you think is stupid in the movies is much, much stupider in the comics. That applies to all superhero movies ever made

At some point it was also a Kryptonian symbol of some kind. Superman's origin story is very multiple choice.

Currently continuity has it as the crest of the House of El and also I think a kryptonian symbol of hope.

There's only one character in comic books that I wish they didn't go the 'whatever backstory works for this story' route, and that's Clayface. His original backstory was a movie star getting driven to crime and madness by the fact they were remaking his biggest film without him. That's a perfect jumping-off point for a Clayface story in modern movies, especially if you have fun with the casting and give the role to someone like Val Kilmer.

I bet Superman felt like a very clever graphic designer when he realized that he could use that symbol and it would have a double-meaning. And now you feel the need to cut him down? For shame. It's just as clever as the FedEx logo! You made a good logo, Superman, be proud.

In the 1978 film, one of the ways they tried to modernize Superman was to make the "S" a family crest, and that idea has stuck around in various ways. In that movie Marlon Brando is wearing it, and you see the other kryptonians with other symbols.

I'm not much into comics, but from what I've heard, the Superman writers liked the idea so much they basically took that idea and have run with it ever since.

Word. On the one hand super hero movies are all kind of a base level of good which I appreciate, on the other you don’t get bonkers out of left field stuff any more, and the bad ones aren’t interestingly bad. Maybe the last one like that is Catwoman. Fake edit WW84 i guess is a recent example but also seems to be deliberately pulling those bad tropes so not sure if it should count

Prior to Iron Man it was axiomatic that superhero movies sucked. There were a couple of exceptions (Batman '89, Superman I, X-men II) but by and large superhero movies before the MCU were terrible.

Christian Bale batmans and Tobey Maguire spidermans 1 and 2 were also generally considered good, and probably more I'm forgetting. The MCU didn't suddenly make people like superhero movies, it came in to ride a wave that was started a decade earlier.

Interesting is always better than bland, regardless of quality. Obviously you want it to be both interesting and good, but I'll take interesting and bad over bland and good any day. e: Interesting superhero movies do occasionally happen, but they're the rare exception. But yes, punish the Marvel likers with 4,000 more thematically empty formulaic films that they must watch. feedmyleg has a new favorite as of 18:43 on Apr 6, 2021 |

While there were a lot of terrible superhero movies, that absolutely wasn't the major opinion of them at the time of Iron-Man's release. They had largely shorn the bad attitudes of them. Blade, Spider-Man 1&2, X-Men 1&2, Batman Begins where all critically lauded when they came out and there were a bunch of smaller movies that weren't critical darlings but were mostly thought of as being "okay."

In that movie Marlon Brando is wearing it, and you see the other kryptonians with other symbols. One of the stories is that it's basically Brando who forced the change because he wanted to wear the S on his chest too and Brando could basically do whatever he wanted at that point in time. So they needed to come up with some sort of reason why Supes' dad would wear the same symbol.

Starting in '98 with Blade and going through '08 you have Daredevil, Hulk, Elektra, both Fantastic Fours, Spiderman III, Xmen III, Blade III, Ghost Rider, Catwoman, Superman Returns and Constantine. DC actually went on to make terrible movies for several more years. (Jonah Hex, Green Lantern, Watchmen)
