Indeed everything you heard about Man of Steel is true: it being a great re-imagining of Superman, a character that's never been rebooted since the Donner films.

If Warner Brothers is smart (and the jury is still out on that), they would write Batman as the type of behind-the-scenes tactician that brings the various superhuman elements in the world together, similar to Nick Fury's role in the Marvel cinematic universe. There is no S.H.I.E.L.D. in the DC universe, there's only…

It was explicitly stated in the movie that the World Engine and Zod's ship are "slaved". Meaning Zod's ship can only emit the gravity beams because it is being linked and controlled by the primary World Engine over the Indian Ocean.

The World Engines had already destroyed much of Metropolis before the final fight between Superman and Zod even happen.

The main reason why Man of Steel is polarizing is because of the inherent baggage that comes with a 75 year old property. There is no ONE definitive interpretation of the character, despite what some fans might have you believe. The All-Star Superman is not the definitive character, the George Reeves Superman is not…

Let's not forget the huge plothole of not seeing on-screen the Enterprise-E fighting in the Dominion War.  It defies logic that the Federation flagship, the fastest and most well-armed in the entire fleet, not to be LEADING the charge against the Jem'Hadar.

I'm gonna third the idea that TUC was a fitting coda to the TOS universe.  It was a poignant send-off to the crew while also setting up a storyline that made sense with characters that have matured over the years.  It's not so much about peace with the Klingons, as it is with Kirk's ability to let go of the past (and…
