Re: Man of Steel
Who in the hell cares?
Leave this thread child.
I don't even undeerstand what you're trying to say here.
So, by your logic, the kryptonians are pretty much almost as strong as Superman, simply because of the weaker gravity. Riiiiiggghhtt....

Re: Man of Steel
Oh my, so I wanna get this straight. When Zod and his crew came down to earth; did they already absorb a partial amount of the yellow sun's radiation? Which is how they were semi-super?

Re: The Man of Steel
I really really hate 3D. It really is pointless and not worth the extra money. If they can't or won't do it RIGHT, like it can be, then forget it.
Waste of time, stupid glasses and strains the eyes.

Re: Man of Steel
Oh my god.
Stop! just stop, your ignorance is painful.
I'm sure now that you didn't watch the movie
and you're unfamiliar with Superman's lore.
Krypton had an older (red) sun, and stronger gravity which made Kryptonian constitution a lot stronger to adapt to those harsh conditions, if you put them on a planet with a younger sun (yellow) and less mass, the obvious effect is that they will feel light as a feather, and their bodies would feel stronger because of the sun.
Under a red sun and stronger gravity they would be as fragile as humans.
Someone give this guy a Superman comic quick!

Whiłe that is part of it, jor-el also said that the radiation from the younger, yellow sun would cause his cells to mutate.

Re: Man of Steel
Yes. This was established in the comics as well when the kryptonian green lanter soddam yot came to earth, and had the exact same powers that superman had. However, once the sun went down, his powers "battery" ran out very very fast. Clark has access to his powers all the time becuase he has spent 30ish years soaking up the solar radiation.

Re: Man of Steel
I don't recall he said "mutate", I just remember that his cells would drink from the yellow sun, thus becoming stronger.

Re: Man of Steel
Yeah, even the comics are unevenly written about it, sometimes he loses his energy reserves after a huge attack, sometimes he loses them gradually

Re: Man of Steel
Really? I've never understood sometimes. He gets into battles in other worlds but still retains his man-of-steel-ness.

Re: Man of Steel
Wow, just wow. In the comic, Superman never gets violently sick when introduced to the environment of Krypton, he simply just gradually loses his powers due to the red sun.
The movie introduced/invented the "difference in environment" angle to explain his weakness and to introduce a vulnerability, due to them not wanting to introduce kryptonite. You trying to make sense of it using the comic as reference, shows your level of understanding, or lack there of.

That's not a bad Solomon Grundy or Bizzaro, actually.

Re: Man of Steel
Well in the new unbound movie (which is a little different to the comics), he spent too much time inside Brainiac's ship and started to lose his powers, he had to go and stand before a miniature yellow sun inside the ship to regain strength.

Re: Man of Steel
He's just a giant battery. When he uses his powers, it depletes him gradually if not continuosly absobing solar radiation. Some powers use more of his reserves, like heat vision. In a comic series from a couple of years back, where a villian induced continuous night, Superman was gradually weakening, due to the sun not being readily available for him to charge on earth.

Re: Man of Steel
You're telling me that I lack understanding when I had to explain to you with apples and oranges, why Kryptonians are stronger on Earth? You're on fire.
Some parts of the movie agree with the comics, some parts don't.
Why is it so hard to understand?
The part of Superman losing power under a red sun or the lack of a yellow sun and gaining power under the yellow sun is part of the comics.

Broke and happy
Re: Man of Steel
Just happy this movie delivered the goods after my psuedo disappointment with IM3.
If MOS sucked it would've been a depressing summer for Superhero movies.
I mean, it's not like The Wolverine will be any good so that's already a wash.

Yeah, I suppose since he's been around forever.
It has always been a problem with Supes...
