DC has always been the ' more adult' of the genreAnd how.

Superman simply can't compare to "Miracleman"...
Miracleman quote: "Yes, I'm here....you can go now... *Squish*"

Hanry Cavill is hot, but this already looks stupid. I’ll wait for the DVD.

Looks more like a handsome gangster than Kal-El.
The hair is ALL wrong. The costume is - meh. Doesn't look alien so much as reminiscent of Spiderman - on whom it looked good - on Superman - not so much.

Your list of DC based movies seems to sample heavily from non-DC universe based graphic novels.
V for Vendetta was published first under “Quality comics” and only REPRINTED in the USA under the D.C. off brand “Vertigo”.
So when it comes to reprinting good graphic novels - and then making a decent movie out of it - D.C. may well be tops.
When it comes to making good superhero movies (or comics)from the Universe that has Superman, Batman, WonderWoman, Flash, Aquaman - OR - the Universe that has Spiderman, Captain America, the X-men, and Thor - there isn't even a contest.

I always loved Krypto, the dog. I’ve never seen these other super pets.

I think both of them were master pieces...not doubt in my mind. I have the DVD of both.
I'm now watching the Lord of the Rings. I my opinion, the best 9 hours of a movie ever. DVDs of all 3 movies.

Political correctness has already stained this movie...Laurence Fishburne cast as Perry White...

I like that the costume is dark but what’s up with the grooved? texture?
You know that cancelled Superman movie from the 90’s (Superman Lives) would have had him in an all black suit because the producer Jon Peters thought the traditional suit was “too faggy”. Peters also wanted Nick Cage or Will Smith to play Superman.

There is a photo-shopped pic of Nicolas Cage wearing the traditional Superman costume on the net...horrible; simply horrible.

Yeah, I can’t really picture a neurotic, chain-smoking Superman working out too well.
