Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
The Videogum Movie Club: 2012
Uh. OK. Well, first let's address what this movie did well, like the disappointed parents we are (or at least that I am), recognizing that the negative feedback won't be useful or constructive if it isn't preceded by something positive....

Yeah, but what we got instead of a Nic Cage Superman film was...Superman Returns. I think I might have preferred the alternate-universe Superman with Cage. At least it would have been entertainingly bad instead of blandly okay.
Score = 3
I agree. Definitely would have preferred balding overactor Superman to that bland what's-his-fuck.
Maybe Superman would have a had a stutter or OCD or something awesome like that? Up-up-up-up-up-up-up-and-away!
Basically, that movie could have been really entertaining and maybe not 5 hours long.
Score = 2
Wow, normally someone would have to actually MAKE the movie to ruin Superman for me. But Nic Cage? One costume test, and he's done it. The man is magic.
Score = 9
Just imagine the patented Cage Shrieks (TM) when his "Superman" walked by some kryptonite.
Score = -1
Who sees Nicholas Cage and thinks "Superman"?
Score = 1
Patricia Arquette and Lisa Marie Presley, although Lisa Marie Presley also married Michael Jackson, so her judgement is a little off...
Score = 5
well, this is the guy who named his son Kal-El
Score = 6
“I was always shocked when I went to the doctor's office and they did my X-ray and didn't find that I had eight more ribs than I should have or that my blood was the color green.”
- Nicolas Cage (really)
Score = 7
Aw man, and I had just cleaned out the old vomit bucket.
Score = 1
"Look! Up in the air! It's a bird!"
"It's a plane!"
"It's....... Nicholas Cage?..... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
Score = 4
That one picture is more entertaining than all of Superman Returns. Also, fake.
Score = 7
it might be real. i remember reading about this project nearly 10 years ago, and 10 years ago it might have been less laughable to imagine it happening. no, obvs it's lots of love no way, but then it kinda made sense.
of course in that picture it looks like someone stuck nicolas cage's face over mona lisa's head and then stuck all of that on a superman body.
Score = 1
Looks like Tommy Wiseau in a trash bag.
Score = 5
He looked like he was on more pills than Paula Abdul at the Juggalos Rape Festival.

I got a rug guy for ya.
Score = 1
Wait,
ew.
