    ok, Superboy is Superboy, because he came after Superman, and both names are given by media, because they wear 'S', and not to mix them up. In MoS, when Clark saved those people in that oil rig, nobody called him anything, because he wasn't wearing anything distinctive. That means, he can start saving people from when

    Superboy is a non-issue. most people who watch these movies barely know Superman, let alone Superboy. also, they are quite different. Superboy was created as a weapon, he never had a childhood, he is more like x-23, or an angry version of Spider-man, who woke up one day and found out he had superpowers.

    "Now let’s all just imagine how hilarious it will be to see Ben Affleck’s totally ripped Batman dusting for fingerprints and hunting for clues while wearing his huge, muscly Batsuit."

    oh look! the scene where Superman learns to fly happens to be the ONLY joy in the entire movie. I knew you'd refer to that, because there was absolutely NOTHING else. that's how sad it is.

    I don't care what happened in the previous versions, it's a reboot, and I want to be introduced accordingly. how does a 30 year old movie justify the flaws of a reboot today? and when did I ever mention I liked Donner's films?

    Sure. that still means Superman was going through the same motion in BvS as he did in MoS without growing one bit, his scenes were still cut from theatrical version, he was and still is just a plot device, when he is not busy being Batman's punchbag. I hope you saw that video essay, as I said before, just compare the

    tell that to God, he made an 'orange' he has been trying to take back for the last 71 years…

    'soft' being the operative word here - for all intents and purposes.

    might I suggest something? hey, Secret Service, can you surround Trump with female agents only? I want to see if he still dares to say those things when armed women are around, how long will it take for someone to snap?

    I didn't like MoS, and hated BvS. I somewhere read, MoS was gonna be based on Superman: Earth One, and I was beyond excited. instead, I got a Superman who acts like Batman, only he needs to consult with everyone before lifting a finger, thanks to his two overbearing fathers. it could've been so much more, so much

    you think that's the trilogy? making Superman Jesus? and that somehow proves that Snyder did the character justice? he was merely a plot device, a stepping tool for promoting Batman, Snyder wanted him gone so Batman could shine, create JL (because he is such a team player, he'd start recruiting Metahumans, like

    that was the perfect opportunity for him to be his own man, make his own decision, and stop being Daddy's little girl. he couldn't hide forever, even Jonathan knew that. that was the chance for him to do it on his own term. it's also the perfect example of how Snyder tackles movies. he needed Clark to experience a

    Cavill really got a raw deal. getting sidelined in a franchise that was supposed to be his own. he has to train harder than any other, wear that tight suit for 15 hours a day during shooting, and yet not been given much to do other than being Batman's bitch, not even getting top billings. he's still the unluckiest

    me too! why not go with Batman/Superman: public enemies story? what if that building got destroyed in Zod/Superman fight belonged to Lex, not Bruce? he owns the city, so odds say, that should be the case. now he has a motive other than daddy issues to hate Superman. but like a law abiding billionaire, he sues

    how dare you sir? conspiring to turn DC as 'campy' and 'corny' like Marvel! DC is for 'grown-ups', they don't smile, or wink, or party with their friends to unwind after a battle! they climb mountains to cry, or do crossfit, when life gets hard. just because they are detective or journalist, doesn't mean they should

    this one cares about public opinion, based on their reactions, you may find him brooding in his flat, or on mountaintop.

    so that's why all his 'heroes' always looked like they were suffering from constipation, because their butts were hurting!

    so that's why Bruce waited 18 months for his revenge. because aerosolizing kryptonite requires a whale chunk of it, as does a bullet?

    I did read it. and the right thing to do would've been saving his father's life, damn the consequence of revealing himself to the world. his secret shouldn't worth more than his father's life, not to him! the Kents could spin a story of Clark saving a bus full of people but not rescuing his own father in the middle of

    that's one of the many things that made me sick too. just look at the way Snyder treated the two heroes in the same movie, and you'll see just how biased he is toward Batman. in MoS, Clark dropped a 12 mil $ drone in front of a US General! where did that badass Superman go in BvS? his situation was much better in BvS
