Cavil was completely wasted by the writing and directing. He could have been the perfect Superman. his best Superman moment was the Post Credit scene in Shazam.

They made Superman an alien because that’s how he got his powers..I think the immigrant thing is a stretch.

Unreal that people don’t see the humanity in Man of Steel…it’s just people covering their eyes. I swear people haven’t watched man of steel. Becuase they have no clue what they are talking about 😂

So tired of this debate. Same with any Superman live action discussion. None are “more accurate” to comics because we have 87 years of Superman in comics. We can have our favs but there is no objectively “better” live action Sups.

humanity is a choice he made. He didnt have to embrace being human. He chooses to.

Good point. If you want to know why Superman is the way he is, watch Grapes of Wrath.

The whole point of Superman is he’s a guy in a cape who’s ma and pa raised him to be good! He reminds us to be better than what we are because we can CHOOSE to be. I loved Henry and MoS and i don’t agree that he was “wasted”. Snyder just told a more grim story. And that’s fine. But Gunn? He brought the Superman that inspired me to life.

I agree, I left the theater wondering what could have been for Henry if he had a good story and director. Loved David as Superman (even if the suit is a little meh).

if they ever do a live action Crisis on Two Earths I would love to see him come back as an older Superman.

Zack Snyder fundamentally does not understand any of the characters in that franchise.

I forget which comic writer said it but they said something along the lines of “Superman is the easiest character to write because he’s always going to do good, he’s always going to help people regardless of who they are or what other people think. BUT because of that it makes writing a Superman story very difficult. You have to have the people around him grow, change, and be inspired by him.” Gunn did that so well from Guy Gardner showing up in Jarhanpur to Mali the food vendor begging Superman not to tell Lex anything. This movie was Silver Age Superman Comic brought to life in modern day. I can’t wait to see it again and again and again!

Superman stories are best when they show how he changes the people around him for the better.

Man of steel was okay. It asked interesting questions. I think it gave the wrong answers but that’s me. They don’t fully lose touch with Superman until BvS imo.
