You have an opinion about who Snyder is, without ever having had a conversation with the guy, and it's not going to change, apparently. You are entirely within your rights to do so. I can't imagine ever characterizing someone I have never even spoken with as shallow in their thinking...

1) It doesn't sound like you have ever been in a fight, much less a superhuman one where people are moving faster than the speed of sound. 2) You are totally allowed your (judgmental) opinion. 3) Being kryptoninan makes the bolded part WAY more complicated than you are giving credit for. 4)...

Snyder is not a shallow thinker. Rather, he tried to ask himself "What would this actually be like today?" And the fact is, there is nothing in the Kents' lives that could have prepared them to raise a Kryptonian, with all the attendant issues that come with it (raising a human child is...

Seriously. The fight with the Kryptonians was the first fight Clark had ever been in in his entire life. One could argue he did TOO well, considering.

Only the GM gets to warp reality.

A friend and I are arguing over this: Did Superman kill those Raptors at the end? Either with his heat vision or the subsequent fall?

Thanks for this. Maybe it's not entirely accurate, but I appreciate you giving a real answer instead of a snippy one. FWIW, whenever I looked up "Ages" in comic books, Iron was missing.

What's the Iron Age?

That was our first thought as well.

That message really doesn't need the screw-job on Jor-el to be communicated...weird.

Everyone else, even people on your side of the argument, has understood what I said. Well done standing on your own.

... Right.

He was not at ALL an anti-hero.

Remember that it's not that I don't know how to narrate it...it's that it (wearing armor makes you better at dodging) doesn't simulate how armor works.

But in the game world, if I want to be harder to hit, I put on heavy armor. The reason people don't like damage on a miss, is because, to them, it was a miss. And you missed me because I am wearing 40+pounds of steel. This is a discrete part of the rules system, and is not simulating...

If it's an abstraction, it's not a simulation. And hey, I never said I didn't like it, so you can turn that particular faucet right off; all the RPGs I play use a similar system, and I quite like them. I do, however, recognize them for what they are...as you did: an abstraction of a concept...

Taking damage =/= dodge better.

Wearing heavy armor makes you dodge better?

Looked exactly the same. Krypto's whole thing in the film was that he showed no restraint.

Kids and I went to see it, wanting to like it (DC is our preferred universe over Marvel), but...naah. Felt disjointed, some abandoned plotlines, very packed...eh. I understand lots of people are going to like Krypto, but we felt he was WAY overused. None of the funny parts really landed for...
