Maybe society no longer wants the goodie good super hero anymore. Today's society enjoys a Batman who has a edge to him.
The other thing with Superman is his enemies suck; boring as shit.
I hate to say it but the Superman genre may just be dead.
Thats a major reason why people are going to like Batman over Superman. Superman is the 'roll your eyes, common superhero'. By that I mean that he is an alien, thats how he is a super hero. There is no good reason or excuse as to why he has powers. Whereas Batman its different, because he is super rich and got trained by a league of ninja's in the Himalayas. That's more believable and more likely to happen than an alien from another galaxy coming to earth with Super powers.

I think the villains come into play as well. As Batman has some of the best and well Superman have some of the worst if not the worst.

Yes, thats very accurate as well. I think since it seems the new superman franchise will be made very similarly as the batman franchise, I expect Lex Luthor, supermans most famous villian to be in the 2nd movie, much like the Joker was in the second batman movie.

Lex (as we know him) = Boring
They need to jazz him up a bit.

If you want to spend your money, take the wife out for a movie, whatever, go see This is the End. Thats a laugh a minute movie in my opinion.
I'm also curious in checking out The Bling Ring. Anyone see it yet?

Has anyone seen Kick Ass? I heard good things about it but it was from my comic book friends so their opinions are being thrown out (especially after the new Superman).
What is Kick Ass comparable to?

IT is awesome; somewhere in here I have a review of it. IMO a must see. Part two comes out this summer.

Kick Ass is definitely a good movie, I'm looking forward to seeing the next installment.
Just saw This Is The End last week, I honestly enjoyed the shit out of that movie. If you're a Rogen fan it's definitely a must-see.
