It's like they were saying, "F*ck it, the audience is too dumb to ask questions."why does fans of x men fans never complain about this ?? the whole canon thing ?? oh shit i am a fan. cant explain it.Quote from: oduodu on Feb 25, 2015, 09:22:52 AMwas star trek retconned ??Sort of... it was kind of a rebootquel. But then time travel is a well-established trope in that franchise. I don't want it in Alien.

I'm not really a fan so I never saw it.

Quote from: whiterabbit on Feb 25, 2015, 09:51:56 AMYea it went swell. They made Superman into a douche. Well even worse, they made him a deadbeat dad and gave him a mutant special needs son.

Quote from: Gash on Feb 25, 2015, 09:20:51 AMSuperman Returns was great right up until the end of the title sequence.
Quote from: RakaiThwei on Feb 25, 2015, 10:27:57 AMSay what you will about III and IV, but at least Superman FOUGHT someone in those.
Quote from: whiterabbit on Feb 25, 2015, 10:13:36 AMHow do people feel about the Terminator retcon? I mean, to me, it's basically shitting on the original 2 movies. However I don't see all that much anger over it. Is that because it is a time travel series?
