I didn't realize til I sat down toread it now but there are alot f similarities. And some of them aren't in a good way IMO. I would actually have loved if they used earth one as a template or even a script for the movie but they took parts from earth one and IMO miss used them. I say after having enjoyed MOS thoroughly. But now after a few days passed Im taking an objective look at the film and honestly It was flawed. I'm still gonna buy it on bluray but they can still do better. But yeah back on topic MOS is very similar to superman earth one. Go check. You'll see. I'm right lol

They based a Superman movie on a SUPERMAN COMIC?! Oh, the humanity! Next thing you'll tell me is that they took quotes from All Star Superman and Secret Origin! And that Zod is a villain from the comics!

Well... Earth One villain is different, Kent started to work on the Planet earlier and did some cool things before, the suit is different. Altough they share similarities, they are completely different.

yeah it had a quite a few elements from it, but saying Man of Steel is ripping it off, is like saying that Dark Knight Rises RIPPED OFF Knightfall.

also I'd just like to say, in MoS the characters weren't all giant pricks, and the evil alien overlord wasn't named "Tyrell" for some reason.

I don't think you understand what "ripped off" means.

Or perhaps your title wasn't a typo, you actually mean "riped off" and I'm just not familiar with the term, in which case I apologize.

@perethorn: I realize that but I was just making note of how remarkably similar they are. There are differences yes but there are even what appears to be planet harvester machines in earth one and the gravity gun thing.

No, you weren't doing that. You were complaining that the makers of a comic book movie had the nerve of drawing inspiration from a comic book.

@lolzstastic: Complaining? I actually said I enjoyed the film thoroughly if you read the entire OP and I just took note that they took some things and misused them "IMO" so I'm sorry if my opinion offended you.

Edit: oh and you misses the part of that quote where I said I was using hyperbole

Since when does drawing things from source material count as a rip off? That's sort of like saying the Hobbit ripped off chapter 5 of the Hobbit.

If anything, a movie drawing inspiration from a comic book is a good thing. A very good thing, as long as it's done well.

@sog7dc: "MOS totally riped (sic) off earth one!"

Sounds like an aggressive standpoint to me.

@lolzstastic: Dude it's called hyperbole. Relax. I enjoyed the film too. It's just that I wanted to point out (I admit in a demonstrative way) the similarities. Don't have to bite my head off

@sog7dc: Hyperbole is not needed then. Just say "Hey guys, did you notice that the movie has some similarities with this comic?", not a title that practically screams "HEY FOLKS THE GUYS WHO MADE THIS MOVIE TOTALLY STOLE FROM THIS COMIC!"

@lolzstastic: I exaggerated yes but I don't deserve to be ridiculed for bing imperfect. Gould I have just been stoic and straight to the point? In hindsight yes. But I wasn't trying to vilify or excoriate the people behind MOS because as I stated in the OP I enjoyed the film throughly
