"WHERE DID YOU [action]? ON A FARM!?" Thanks to trolls interpreting Superman's neck snap of Zod differently, referring to Superman as the "Man of Murder ". "STOP INVINCIBLE SON" - Jonathan Kent's decision to sacrifice himself has been met with some derision by /tv/.
My grand consensus of Man of Steel is that it had all the right ingredients for a more "realistic" Superman, however poor writing and direction resulted in a mediocre movie. Perhaps the same script under a different director could have resulted in a more well received film? What is your take?
Apr 5, 2024 · Zack Snyder was a controversial filmmaker for DC, yet many fans agree that Man of Steel got some aspects of Superman right. With a new Superman on the horizon, it's worth examining which aspects of the hero's previous solo film did the Man of Steel justice.

Zack Snyder set out a clear path for his take on Supermanthat, while somewhat of a deviation from what audiences were used to seeing of the hero on screen, still adhered to the hopeful and inspirational origins of the character. This quote from Jor-El, heard as Kal-El gathers his strength to fly for the first time, sums up the potential for good in...
Leave it to General Zodto make what would ordinarily be a very comforting statement of fact seem like the scariest thing in the world. But that's exactly what he does when he introduces humanity to not only himself but the entire idea of humanity no longer being alone in the universe.

Martha Kent doesn't appear in Man of Steel for relatively very long but the character makes a big impact and more than fulfills her role as Clark Kent's chief source of wisdom and support. As throwaway as this statement may seem, it actually expresses one of the central themes of the movie, with the failed Kryptonian civilization being shown as som...
General Zod gets a lot of very villainous lines throughout the movie but this one–delivered to what survives of the consciousness of his former contemporary–is perhaps his most cold-blooded. Zod has a very singular vision in the movie and, for all his faults, he could never be accused of being indirect about his intentions and determination.
Delving into Clark Kent's early childhood on Earth, Man of Steel shows how even Superman had a tough time adjusting to school and the world around him. When his superhuman senses kick in during class, Clark is forced to flee to a nearby closet and appears ostracized by the people around him. Luckily, his mother arrives to offer some kind words to t...
Antje Traue delivers one of the most underrated performances of the movie with her take on Faora-Ul, Zod's ruthless subcommander. Her glib delivery of some of the movie's most evil lines is part of what makes her such an effective villain. Another part of it is the character's side rivalry with Christopher Meloni's also-underrated character, Colone...
Michael Shannonsteals the entire movie in many ways, even though his character is absent from a large middle section of the story. He's not only arguably the most important character in it but also arguably the most entertaining to watch. The intensity that Shannon brings to the role is worthy of the cinematic legacy left by Terence Stamp's perform...

The MUSIC in particular was GODLY and inspirational as hell. The actual moment itself was epic to the maximum and screamed the spirit of Superman in every way imaginable. Superman is beaten down, struggling against the gravity beam and the atmosphere of his homeworld weakening his strength.
"Stop, My Invincible Son" is a catchphrase that refers to Jonathan Kent's iconic death scene from the 2013 DC Comics movie, Man of Steel. The scene was parodied online due to the seemingly forced sacrifice of Superman's father figure.
