The new Superman....................what do you think?

[Mortimer]

boravia was introduced in 1939 in Superman no 2.....and again in 1958 in a Blackhawk comic....

Ok but the language the boravians spoke was definitely serbian
I understood every word
Was that always like that in 1939 too?

In 1939, the country of Boravia was consumed by a civil war. A Boravian munitions magnate named Lubane hired the international armaments racketeer Bartow to steal a formula from an American chemist for an advanced type of poison gas. The gas' inventor was murdered, and Bartow took the formula to Boravia, but was pursued there by Superman. In Boravia, Superman intervened in a number of situations where civilians were endangered by the warring forces, then tracked down and confronted Lubane, who did not survive their encounter. Superman then flew to the capital city and disrupted a stalemated peace conference, in which bad-faith negotiators from both factions were making no progress. He threatened to knock down the building in which they were haggling, with all the negotiators inside it; they very quickly reached a mutually acceptable agreement, and the civil war was ended.

Ok but i believe its possible that the 2025 boravians are still serbs even if they were not that clearly in 1939
In the new movie they clearly spoke serbian

in 1939 a twenty five year old kid wrote the story....was Serbia a country in 1939?...Siegel may not have ever heard of them...

I will.be honest, even as a kid I never enjoyed superhero movies much though I watched Saturday cartoons. As an adult, I don't ever watch them at all really. I prefer realistic,.non-fiction movies and/or movies based on true events. Of course Inenjoymfiction movies, but there must be interesting writing and/or acting.. A guy flying around in a cape just doesn't fit the bill for me.

Seems to complex for you to understand that the original boravia is purely fictional and in the new movie its still modeled after serbia you do not understand that for me its clear as night

It’s earned 217 million so far. Therefore it is a success.

That would be depend on how much they spent to make it, promote it, and factoring in the theatres get 40% of the gate.

Superman’s been in continuous publication since the 1930’s

Like The Simpsons, he’s pretty much done every story conceivable

 

[braalian]

Are you old enough to be posting here?

It does make me feel like a young buck sometimes to be around so many old dudes

 

[braalian]

Failzero

So is the movie still “failing” at the box office?

Numerous comic books and stories have explored the "What If" scenario where Superman is raised by villains or becomes evil.......
