Kabuliwalah? Is it that same Kabuliwalah story about a afghani hawker. I remember I had in our Hindi syllabus in 9? or 10th grade. "bacon ko behlanewala kabuliwalah" something :P

 

Ok, so after googling I realize it is. Wow, didn't know it was made into a movie in 1957

yea and its a really nice movie..especially the bengali one..i guess a hindi version was made too..but the bengali one is very good

hype? for superman? which world do you live? Also, its superman. No matter how hard they try superman movies will suck even Nolan can't save it. This is FACT

 

Its the character itself. There is only so much you can do with "lol invulnerable to everything except Krypton" bullshit. Its like the Scooby doo cartoons, you already know how it will go.

 

And I know Supes fans are gonna jump down my throat with nonsense like "but he is supposed to be a god character and the story is a metaphor for him trying to blah blah blah blah" and :tongue: is all I can be bothered to say to that.

 

Its a shitty character in a shitty universe. Even the original Superman trilogy was tolerable at best.

Superman Returns wasn't as bad as people make it out to be. Too much hype. Though the whole Superman having a kid thing was not needed at all.

 

LOL, its like the worst superhero movie ever, even batman & robin is better than superman returns !

There are some excellent Superman stories which can be well adapted for the silver screen. just that it's easy to go for the special effects and screw up the story - just like Green Lantern.

Think I had that too. That line reminded me of reading it somewhere. God, I used to despise Hindi at school.

thanks..will grab it then...the casting and story looks good also

 

Sleepers is a very solid drama film. Watch it when your in the proper mood for a drama. Watch Casino first, though. Its better than Goodfellas.

Superman: The Dark Side. Good story with umpteen opportunities for those special effects.
