She is a fantastic character. It's another character that is just screaming for Joss Whedon to get hold of for a film. Strong, kick ass female? Definitely! <br /><br />And Cobie Smulders is such a perfect bit of casting for the role. She can hold her own while ScarJo's on scene too!

And I agree that the issue here is that he's been miscast sometimes. I actually saw him on the Graham Norton Show promoting Man of Steel, and whenever I was able to stop staring at Cavill (which was only when he wasn't in the shot), I thought Crowe was pretty cool. He told a sweet story and I figured, he's probably a nice guy.<br /><br />I can't remember my thoughts on him as Jor-E (other than thinking "that's Russel Crowe" the whole time) but looking back, he wasn't at all bad in it. Anyway, having liked Man of Steel too, the first 20 min were actually the ones I disliked... but only because they annoyed my aesthetic sense. I don't appreciate such a yellow CGI fuelled depiction of Krypton, with dinosaurs. <br /><br />That said, to know more about Jor-El would be awesome, and I'm fine with Russel Crowe playing him, so all of this to say -- GREAT pick!!

I thought she was an interesting character and someone that I would like to know the backstory of and see how she came to be so kick-ass. Also, love your pick of Jor-El too. I loved Man of Steel even with its flaws. Knowing more about his battles against Zod and how he prepared the aircraft on Earth to contain his consciousness/spirit/messages to help Clark I think would've helped eliminate some of the problems people had with the movie.Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287429151542133314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-51798516181379888382014-03-26T19:05:14.222+01:002014-03-26T19:05:14.222+01:00In my review of Man of Steel I mention that an ent...In my review of Man of Steel I mention that an entire movie focused on Jor-El would have been perfect, as Crowe was just aces in the role!
