Oh, man. So wrong-headed. Just painful. Mildly interesting, but painful.

I can't even muster the strength to complain about this.

Predictable, yet fully astonishing. And very welcome.

I had heard he had dementia and was in poor health. Still, this is sad news.

I met Struzan a few years ago, and had him sign ET and Back to the Future posters for me. It felt precious then, and even more so now. What an immense talent.

This felt like an unusually pointless remake. I was just so-so- on the original, really (fun enough, but it didn't grab me as much as it did for others), and I have so far taken a pass on seeing the new film or getting a disc. Ho-hum. Mild curiosity will get me to look at it on D+ at some point.

Nice, but just another repackaging. Lots of that happening these days. But I guess there are always new collectors wanting to get something like this. Or old collectors wanting every version. I'm not one to judge. Me, I'm happy with the Complete Adventures Blu-ray set (with the cartoons included). T...

Yep, loading much better.

I think this is a very fair assessment, seen on Facebook. It certainly reflects my own reaction to Superman. While I quite enjoyed it, I didn't find myself loving it as much as a lot of people. It's not great art; just a fun comic book-y ride. But above all, there was relief that it wasn't a Snyder-...
