Be interesting to see what you think of the new graphics. Game looks and feels like Advent Children (a FF7 sequel cgi movie, if you've never heard of it). And there are a lot of scenes ripped straight for the original, scene for scene, angle for angle. I gotta be honest, hearing the loading screen music again almost brought a tear to my eye.
It'll take like, 6 installments to tell the whole story if they don't start squeezing bigger chunks of the narrative into each game (not cool guys!), but they fleshed out Midgar so well it's hard to be mad about it.
Always wanted to see the orphanage origin used in a big adaptation. But you're gonna get a lot of backlash from that.Right now it's in my head - but as soon as I get a chance to put it to (digital) paper, I'll be happy to send it to you. Basically, the idea is to have several movies, with each somewhat defining a different era of Superman, to show the transition from Golden to more modern - and to have it all realistically work (even why he has a 40's and an 80's origin). The first is Golden Age - and while the Kents play a role of sorts, he grows up in the orphanage - ala the very first telling of the origin.
So, you talking a Morrison-esque shift, like the Collector of Worlds ushering in a more Silver Age type of story, or like a "Clark experiences changes in time" kinda thing?
