Man of Steel

Went to see it today. There is one scene where he turns on the TV and Kansas is playing Louisiana Tech in football. Thought that was kind of cool.

I remember it was 7-7 in the first quarter. They killed us in the second half, if my memory serves. This year will be a different story. ;-)

So OBVIOUSLY Superman loves Louisiana Tech! Than makes perfect sense to me.

I saw it said LTU by the score and wondered. Overall the movie was ok. My wife flat out said she didn't like it and my son fell asleep (he made it through the slower part of the movie and fell asleep towards the end???). I thought it was good though. I was expecting it to be great. They did a really good job hyping it up.

I noticed it too and thought the movie was better than i expected.

Nice cameo!

Producers probably liked the colors of our road uniforms . . . .

I am glad you told me before the movie or I wouldn't have noticed. I didn't like the movie- too much violence and not enough story for me. My husband thought it was OK- certainly there are much better options out there to see right now.

Compared to the other Superman movies, that one really made you remember that he's an alien

This was the first Superman movie to bring the violence over the top . . . just like reading the comics when they came out on, what, Saturdays at the drug store rack?

eh, wont ever watch it again . . . . .

I liked it, and it wasn't so much the violence that I disliked as the overdrawn, over-the-top, Michael Bay-ish action sequences (which, to your point, were also needlessly violent). It was more than a little ironic that after he kills possibly thousands of innocent bystanders by smashing up surrounding buildings while fighting for an hour, he then becomes conflicted when faced with the opportunity to kill Zod.

Thanks for the spoiler alert.
