This comforts me greatly.
Superman showed up trying to have a rational conversation..
And batman is the one going on about 1% chance of someone doing something/anything
I think thats the point of Superman though and why he is always considered a threat. He has always come of as a mental ****** to me who's reasoning and logic could easily be turned against him. I know this comment was a while ago but i was reading back in the thread to see read some people reactions here since I've finally seen the movieI never liked the whole "if Lois/a loved one of Superman's dies, he turns evil and takes over the world" idea.
It cheapens Superman's character and once again makes him a plot device. They did it in Injustice and in Justice League with the Justice Lords when Flash died.
I don't believe Clark as a person is so emotionally or mentally stunted that he would become Hitler if a loved one died. Maybe some massive depression, all the normal things that come with loss sure.
Spider-Man lost Gwen Stacy and countless others and the question NEVER came up as to him becoming a villain because of it.
I get what you're saying but I don't think thats what Superman represents anymore, that's the old portrayal of Superman. The Superman we've been getting lately is flawed in a few ways especially emotionally and I think that makes him a much better and more interesting character.
Obviously that's not this Superman.the whole point of superman is that he isnt a metal ******
he is able to always do the right thing because he doesnt have to deal with fear and jealousy like the rest of the world. he's superman
You know what, if you want to re-tell the Superman story and say that he is this all powerful being, however his questionable upbringing has made him confused, that could work.
And with all the "don't save people" garbage that his parents have been feeding him, that would make all the sense in the world.
Looking back at MoS, you could even say that being bullied by people has made him realize how bad human beings are. And in many ways, he saves out of pity, not genuine caring of the human race.
That also plays into why he didn't care about fighting in a heavily populated area in MoS. He may have just seen those innocent people as collateral damage.
Damn, Snyder's vision for Supes' is so clear now.
And this is true it is a little ridiculous but thats just how mentally fragile I consider Superman to be.Flaws do make a character interesting but having Superman be one tragedy away from becoming a villain is taking it to ridiculous levels
Its not the love part that makes him flawed thats normal, its the "I just lost the person I love so **** everybody its a dictatorship now" potential that makes him flawed and interesting.How is he flawed emotionally? He loves his girl and his mom. Seems normal to me.I get what you're saying but I don't think thats what Superman represents anymore, that's the old portrayal of Superman. The Superman we've been getting lately is flawed in a few ways especially emotionally and I think that makes him a much better and more interesting character.
Clark = Anakinwhat makes superman interesting is the same thing that makes dr manhattain interesting. they are so powerful that they are able to focus on issues beyond human comprehension, if we are getting an all powerful god character then explore what someone would do and care about given this superior understanding of the universe and limitless ability to achieve anything. why do we need another emotionally soft character who only cares about saving his girl? huge waste of potential.
