CHUD's "Franchise Me" on Superman Empty
PostSubject: CHUD's "Franchise Me" on Superman   CHUD's "Franchise Me" on Superman EmptyMon Jun 17, 2013 2:23 am

I regularly visit the movie-site CHUD.com and they run a regular series called Franchise Me where Joshua Miller has been doing write ups on all sorts of different franchises over time and right now he is currently on the Superman series. I find a lot of his writings to be very worthwhile and thought many would be interested in checking them out. He mainly focuses on films that were released theatrically, from the Kirk Alyn serials to Henry Cavill's film, so stuff like LOIS & CLARK and SMALLVILLE won't be included. So far he has done SUPERMAN III, so he'll have three more entries to go including MAN OF STEEL.

Superman (1948)
Atom Man vs Superman (1950)
Superman and the Mole Men (1951)
Superman (1978)
Superman II (1980)
Superman III (1983)

9 years later.

Still no MAN OF STEEL 2.

But Josh Miller is now the screenwriter for a successful blockbuster franchise!

I’m convinced the film division at WB simply hates Superman.

Franchise Me was my favorite articles on Chud. Joshua really knew how to write from the heart and get to the meat of all those movies without getting bogged down with the overly complex themes some writers would want to get into

It certainly seems like Toby Emmerich does. I know that right after M:I - Fallout, Cavill went in to pitch a Man of Steel 2 with Christopher McQuarrie in tow and they passed on it!

But now that Discovery is calling the shots, I suspect we'll see Superman again fairly soon. Word is one of their first post-merger big meeting questions was "Why are we not doing anything with Superman?"

This is a great thread from a film critic I like, Darren Mooney: https://twitter.com/Darren_Mooney/status/1528153718067191808?s=20&t=_VIujnWbzR6MJ3OgnAdwwQ

He argues that Mission: Impossible under McQuarrie has been about Ethan Hunt as a classical hero fighting the idea of the post-modern anti-hero, and that Fallout specifically pitted him against Henry Cavill for that reason.

I haven't seen FALLOUT since theaters, but I'll probably revisit it when the new one comes out.
