Chapter 67: The Reversal, a Superhero Thrilling Movie! (First Update)
Over the years, DT's superhero movies, represented by Superman, have featured a variety of superpowers...

However, they all share a similar characteristic.

They are handsome, capable, righteous, just, compassionate, noble, and peace-loving...

They are always set up to save the world, and their character is like that of a saint without any flaws. With their powerful abilities and magnanimity, they are the spiritual pillars of all mankind!

At first, these movies thrilled and excited me, and I regarded them as idols.

But after watching it repeatedly, it gradually felt clichéd and stereotypical.

This clichéd approach has become particularly evident from last year to this year. Whether it's the blockbuster movie "S. Men" released by DT last year or "Superman 2" released this year, they are almost all based on similar formulas.

While it's not exactly boring, it's gradually losing its surprises.

Especially with this year's "Superman II," the film's poor quality, mediocre plot, and lack of surprising breakthroughs even in its supposedly impressive special effects, the market response was unsurprisingly lower than expected.

As a film critic, Liu Jiasheng, while praising "Superman II" in various media outlets against his will, privately wrote an article on [Movie House] expressing his deep disappointment with the film...

but……

At this moment!

When we saw Superman in "The Reboot" suddenly unleash his full potential on screen...

Liu Jiasheng was completely stunned!

He originally thought that this so-called "Human Reboot" would follow some of the Hollywood superhero formulas!
He was misunderstood throughout the first half of the story, yet he endured it all, always keeping humanity and the Earth in his heart, thinking of the bigger picture, allowing himself to be judged and then exiled by humanity. Finally, when humanity was in danger, he once again stepped forward, using his steel body to protect humanity, and ultimately won humanity's recognition with his sincerity and kindness, becoming great and righteous once again!
however……

He realized he was wrong!
This film, "Human Reboot," does not follow the established Hollywood superhero formula.

On the contrary, when the plot was at its most oppressive and frustrating, it suddenly exploded!

"boom!"

The explosive scene left Liu Jiasheng speechless!

Especially when Liu Jiasheng saw Chen Jianfeng's "portrayal" of Superman walk out of the ruins step by step, his laser eyes shooting out intense light and destroying the entire courthouse, he felt incredibly inspired!
He even fucking wanted to applaud!

Although it's somewhat unconventional...

Although it's a bit unconventional and the way it's presented isn't quite right!
But, damn it!
This is what a guy with real superhuman strength should do!
On the screen!
"Stop! Stop! If you take another step forward, I'll kill him!"

"See it clearly!"

"They are your parents, the ones who gave you life and raised you!"

"Stop everything, put on the kryptonite shackles, do as we say, and don't move!"

Smoke and fire fill the air!

Amidst screams of terror...

Fully armed Emilia soldiers, shields in hand, surrounded the suddenly erupting Superman. One of the soldiers, who looked like a soldier, pressed a gun against Superman's mother's head and shouted at him sternly!
And they threw over a kryptonite handcuff that could restrict Superman's abilities...

A familiar storyline!
Familiar scenes!

It's exactly the same as the one in "Superman 2"!
When Liu Jiasheng saw this scene, his heart tightened suddenly!
The most frustrating and illogical scene in "Superman II" was when the seemingly omnipotent Superman, who should have swept through everything, was forced to kneel on the ground by threats from his family. Under the villain's threats, he lost his superpowers and was ultimately pushed into the abyss, suffering all kinds of humiliation!

He naturally understood that this was the storyline the director of "Superman 2" wanted to express Superman's deepest kindness and light, as well as his love for his family, and to convey the theme that "heroes are always lonely"!
But watching superhero movies is so damn enjoyable. Who would be happy to see someone with such power living such a miserable life?
Real life is already frustrating enough, isn't it?

Liu Jiasheng stared intently at the screen!

At that moment, my heart suddenly tightened!
This movie should not be like "Superman 2," where it finally explodes and is about to have a big scene, but then suddenly becomes impotent!
Special!

What's the difference between this and having already taken off your pants and being in the middle of a passionate encounter, only to be suddenly told that your due date is approaching?
On the screen!
The movie gave a close-up of the kryptonite handcuffs!
It also gave Chen Jianfeng, who plays Superman, a close-up!
Next!

"Pfft!"

What made Liu Jiasheng's heart surge was an exciting scene!
The threatened Superman's eyes were cold. Instead of kneeling down, he took a step forward. Then, amidst the fearful gazes of countless people, a beam of red light suddenly shot out from his eyes, instantly piercing through the body of the person who dared to threaten him!
Then...

His figure instantly transformed into a blur, shielding his mother from a particle bullet amidst a barrage of bullets!

Immediately afterwards, seeing that Emilia's soldiers dared to shoot at him, she suddenly fired laser beams again. Anyone who touched the lasers fell down instantly, dead beyond any doubt!
Liu Jiasheng was stunned when he saw this!
Oh shit!

So cool!
........................

"Fuck!"

"Holy crap, that's absolutely amazing!"

"Holy crap, this movie is just awful!"

"My grass!"

"Was this really made by those scoundrels who made 'Monkey King vs. Superman 2'? My god, it was so awesome!"

"What's so great about this movie? It has questionable values. Damn it, I'm not watching it anymore!"

"If you don't want to watch, get lost. Watch it or don't, damn it! If you were Superman, you'd be even more ruthless than him! Damn it, I hate that I don't have that kind of power!"

"..."

In the screening room.

Yang Bo from [Movie House] heard a series of excited voices!

Almost everyone looked excited!
Having grown accustomed to the frustrating portrayals of traditional superheroes, to those stories of upright, righteous, and noble figures in the sunlight, and to all sorts of peace-loving movies…

Upon suddenly witnessing such an explosive plot, the young people present were unable to suppress their emotions, and some even found themselves immersed in the movie as they watched!

Oh shit!

The more I immersed myself in the role, the more I felt that the little devil surging within me could no longer be suppressed!

At the climax of the movie, they saw Superman, played by Chen Jianfeng, walk step by step towards the popcorn shop and cola shop next door.

The employees at the popcorn and cola shops stared in horror at the suddenly powerful superhero, crouching on the ground trembling!

But they discovered that this ruthless and cold-blooded superman, who had been so powerful in killing everyone, had not killed them. Instead, he politely straightened his clothes and smiled handsomely and gentlemanly.

"Thanks, a Coke and a popcorn!" "..."

The camera gave a close-up of the cola and popcorn!
The audience in the screening room watched as this Superman, under everyone's gaze, devoured popcorn and drank cola in large gulps.

His gaze, however, swept over the distant ruins and the trembling humans on them.

His eyes glazed over for a moment, then a smug smile crept across his lips...

A surge of excitement welled up from the depths of everyone's hearts once again!
That is!

A demon has awakened!

Just at this time……

A small cart was pushed open next to the screening room, and then one by one, staff members bowed and bent over to hand out cups of the same Coke and popcorn...

"Coke is 5 yuan! Popcorn is 10 yuan!"

"it is good!"

"Coke is five yuan, popcorn is ten yuan!"

"Okay, give me one!"

"..."

The camera focused on Superman eating popcorn and drinking cola, with a series of close-up shots!
It also includes a series of montage flashback scenes. This close-up seems to be reserved specifically for everyone to buy popcorn and cola, lasting for about five minutes!

However, the film's pacing didn't break down; instead, it constantly used flashbacks and combinations of fragmented memories to push the previously pent-up emotions to their extreme once again!
They were locked up in a laboratory and studied like animals...

He was constantly ridiculed...

Threatened, exploited, subjected to all sorts of accusations and insults...

These images...

Although it's all remade for "Superman: Reboot", if you look closely, all the plot points are the most frustrating for viewers in "Superman 2"!

A series of plot points flash by!
Superman's laughter grew more and more unrestrained and louder, to the point of being arrogant and even reckless!

A demon with superpowers gradually awakens amidst waves of rage!

Next!

After most people had received their popcorn...

In the movie, Superman, holding his mother, instantly soared into the sky and disappeared into the clouds!
........................

Liu Jiasheng also bought cola and popcorn, and enjoyed them immensely while watching the movie!
On the screen.

After Superman's rampage in the courtroom, the plot became incredibly exciting!
The plot didn't drag on; after settling his mother in, he rushed into the laboratory without saying a word!

In the lab, the scientists, unaware that Superman had fully unleashed his power, whistled at his cold expression and jokingly called him "Big Power Baby," showing absolutely no respect for this superhuman. And then…

"boom!"

They saw Superman smash the lab glass!
Then, with a ferocious, even distorted expression, he lifted up a fat scientist...

"Why!"

"Why should I protect you!"

"And yet you treat me like this!"

"Look into my eyes!"

"..."

The scientist panicked!
Just as he was about to use a Kryptonite weapon to fight Superman, Superman punched him so hard that his hand was broken and tossed aside like trash!
Immediately afterwards...

"I originally!"

"I intended to be friends with you all, but instead I've been met with estrangement!"

"Can you afford it?!"

"what!"

"answer me!"

"Look in my eyes!"

"Take off your pants!"

"Pfft!"

In the laboratory where Superman was once imprisoned, he was so terrified by Superman's relentless questioning that he eventually wet himself!

then!

puff!

Laser eyes burst forth, and all the hypocrisy of the past erupted overnight!

then!

Smash the glass!
Then, everyone was shot through, and in the flames, only Superman's unrestrained, sarcastic laughter could be heard!

then……

A series of high-octane, explosive scenes!
Although the bloody scenes were scaled down or replaced with other shots!
but……

The explosion scene stirred the hormones of countless viewers in the theater!

They unconsciously drank their cola...

Eating fries and popcorn...

Emilia and the military are trying to use Superman's girlfriend, Lois Lane, to persuade Superman to reconcile with him!
