<blockquote>1. He just gives up his powers on a whim! Probably just an hour of screen time earlier, he's saved millions from certain death. He's well aware he's the only person who could have done that. Yet now, quite selfishly, he gives up that potential for what? Just so he can have his wicked way with Lois without breaking her in half... Pathetic!</blockquote>
I've never read it, but there's an essay about Superman called "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex". Maybe Sperman read it.
<blockquote>2.When Lois punches Ursa down that crevice to her certain death, he just stands there and laughs! He just laughs at this woman he's supposed to love killing another human being... What?!!</blockquote>
If it makes you feel better, there's the extended version where they're alive and arrested by the (north pole?) police.

<blockquote>3. Rocky. Sure, I'm sure we've all had a good laugh at some point watching that scene but let's look at it again with more clinical, analytical eyes - Superman has just saved the world from the tyranny of Zod and co, saving countless lives once again. Peace is restored. And what's the first thing he's doing? That's right, he's off on a path seeking vengeance against some insignificant mortal! Using his powers for revenge and to crush / humiliate this guy... Why?!!</blockquote>
You're absolutely right, but the audience got satisfaction.
A while back, i remember someone was talking about raising money for the African-Americans in South Africa.
Here is is singing "I am the Walrus": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MoWQSe3txY
It wasn't a very good Country album,
and it certainly wasn't a very good Beyoncé album.
It was october 21st 1980...something.
and still better than most of today's popular music.
Here's what Eddie Murphy had to say at the time about Michael Jackson and Brook Shields:

I have to agree. She was completely pointless.
Danny De Vito had more going for him in the movie than her.
OF COURSE!!!
It was a great time to be an 8 year old.
I would not go as far as saying "single greatest cinematic event", but we were very excited for it to come out.
There was a lot of talk. There were all these weird tie-ins (my mum made a bank account for me, we got a poster with characters missing, and we only got the character stickers to stick on the poster when we put money in the account).
The local movie theater showed Empire, which I hadn't seen yet, so I got a chance to finally see it.
as far as "the single greatest cinematic event to have been alive for" goes, ET was the year before. Now, that was huge!
Why do apes from the same clan, who have been living with each other for generations, have different accents?
Probably cheaper and less paperwork.
I finished watching last night.
The most notable characters that aged were Susie and Richard.
Larry didn't seem to age much, apart from the white hair.
And you appreciate it even more knowing there was probably very little use of CGI, if any (this is only 2 years after Jurassic Park).
Even as a kid, at the time it was a bad episode. I remember it seemed dated even then. As if they had found a script from 60's and used it as is.
I recently started a rewatch of TNG, and the episode is still really bad.
If people to find it offensive, then a disclaimer should be enough.
That being said, I agree with others that this was a good episode for Tasha in the sense that it gave her something to do (other than doing Data).
better than the 2012 London Olympics where their logo looked Lisa Simpson going down on Bart:

Surely, you can't be serious.
Jonny unplugging the runway lights
and all that in the first 10 minutes!!
Looks like you picked the wrong week to watch a classic comedy.
Dammit Jim, it's already blocked!
