According to IMDB, the worst movie about comics DC

Although Marvel over the past few years had its ups and downs, it is largely perceived as the usual wisdom that when it comes to the world of cinematic adaptations of comics, they always made things better or at least more consistently than DC. Distribution distribution DC led by Warner Bros. She has experienced many iterations of some of the most important comic books company, such as Batman and Superman, as much as because of the distinctive directors, such as Christopher Nolan and Zak Snider who want to put the stamp on these iconic figures, because some of the more ambitious efforts were great turns and Miss. Yes, some DC Comics films were strange, such as the Nolan’s Dark Knights trilogy, but then there are movies such as “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice” or “Woman -Cat” just to call a couple.

And yet, while these two last films are perhaps the most famous DC name, none of them can require dubious pride to become the worst DC movie while you limit yourself to IMDB ratings. At this point, it should be noted that looking at the IMDB movie rating may not tell you the whole story, and because some movies are extremely appreciated by users on the site, but may not have similar points on the aggregation site like Metacritic (or vice versa). “Woman -Choch”, for example, has a pretty low IMDB score; This is 3.4 out of 10, which is suitable, given the poor quality of the film and the equally poor reputation. But no, it’s not the worst. What will win this gold turkey? Well, that would be a movie about superhero 1997 “Steel“Of 3.0 Imdb. You remember “steel”, huh?

Quickly forgotten cash flop-steal has the worst DC rating on IMDB

You can be forgiven for not mentioning any details of the movie Warner Bros. “Steel”. When it was released in mid -August 1997, the most sold movie was simple: what if Nba’s Super Star Shakil O’Nel was a leading superhero movie? By this point, Shak was quite popular with a) to have its own nickname, and b) have already starred in another movie designed to partially hope for its presence and recognition. Despite the fact that Shak was not as a mammoth player on the court like Michael Jordan, another NBA legend, who appeared in the family movie “Space Jam” previously, was a famous number, and films about superheroes at this moment were not completely. Of course one drawback “Steel“Did it be equally dubiously honored to become the second film about the DC Summer of 1997. The second title?” Batman and Robin “, which was so shameful disappointment that led to an almost dead period in which DC did not make theatrical features with the Cricket Cross, and when they did it, it was with almost a ten -year switching of his three films.

So “steel” had a tough act to follow everyone. But it was also based on the characters with which not many people may be partly explaining the fact that the film’s budget was quite low for the superhero film reportedly only $ 16 million. Even with the low budget, the movie box office was almost funny anemic, earning less than $ 2 million when everything was said and done. The story of a weapon designer named John Henry Airons (O’Nel) and about how he leaves work after he saw the damage he caused to his girlfriend Susan Sparks (Annabeth Gish), may first appear to blush, reminiscent High brand. Term NotesProducer and music icon quinx Jones says steel is rather a “super man” than a superhero.)

And of course, there is the presence of Shakil O’Nela himself. On the one hand, its popularity went into the NBA; One of the manufacturing hiccups had to find out when to shoot it in the middle of the 1996 Summer Olympics, and was preparing for the new NBA season with its then-team Los Angeles Leakers. On the other hand, when the family movie “Kazam” was already clear, the talent of O’NIL was not so easy to repeat on the big screen. In short, his acting talents were not as impressive, which means that the film center will not be as exciting as necessary. (And writer/director Kenneth Johnson will later say this Casting O’Nela was a mistake.) The box office was also almost shockingly scary, and “became” arrived in more than 1250 theaters a weekend and earned just over $ 870,000.

Steel quickly disappeared from the public eye but made a negative mark with fans

In truth, it is almost impressive that “steel” has a lower IMDB rating than “woman -cat”, precisely because the 2004 movie was much larger, more pronounced flop. Where the paintings of Warner Bros. were able to collectively shake their metaphorical shoulders with “steel”, or because fans of non-friendly books were not familiar with the character, or because Shakil’s restrictions were hindered by their chances, and for “woman”. The character is undoubtedly recognizable and significant for decades, and the Berry’s star’s star was a fresh victory in Oscar. Nevertheless, despite the fact that more than 100,000 people appreciated the “Kot” on IMDB, these are just a few tenth points over the “steel”.

Could they “become” if you work? It is easy to wonder if another presenter would be useful, especially since Johnson wanted Wesley Snipes to play the main character. Instead, of course, Snipes went to the game in the Superhero Marvel Superher blade, in a successful trilogy (with this character potentially revived in MCU, though at this point who knows if it really happens). And O’Neil managed to bring out a storm playing this unsuccessful hero due to the fact that he was one of the most iconic NBA players. Considering how fast the “steel” was forgotten at the box office, one can only assume that cheeky negative ratings on IMDB reflect the most loyal comic book fans who overly protect even less famous heroes and ultimately.
