I’ve always enjoyed Man of Steel.

The destruction of Metropolis made sense to me as a rookie Superman just desperately trying to stop Zod while having no idea how. They could have built off of it in a second movie but then Avengers came out and it was all hands on deck to get a Universe going.

Man of Steel was great. I especially enjoyed them somewhat breaking the character mold and having him kill Zod. It was a sophies choice if you will... lol

But it was awesome, and it honestly humanized him more than anything else I've seen done with the character.

Everything else after... well... I mean Thor came back from The Dark World so...

I was a pretty big Superman fan and my most prominent emotion after seeing it in theater was disappointment. The curse of expectations I guess.

I've seen it a handful of times since and I would say it's quite enjoyable.
I can't understand that perspective. The movie butchered so many important things about the Superman mythos.

It's one of the single worst interpretations of Superman in any medium.

Oh no.. we're at risk of them messing this up by changing to much.

Stick to the formula!! It worked so well back then!!

When Helen Mirren shows up as a supervillain, maybe it's time to admit there are too many superhero movies.

No Henry Cavill update extremely disappointed. But I really like the look and direction of Black Adam

Pierce Brosnan as Doctor Fate? Interesting. Sarah Shahi is a good get as well.

The computer graphics in the She-Hulk show still don't feel right but I don't think I care it looks like a lot of fun.
