>How did Lois not see past a pair of glasses and realise that Clark Kent and Superman are one and the same? "It comes up again later in the movie and it’s explained. She says it. We mention it," Gunn confirmed. "And it’s a one-off and people chuckle, but there’s stuff later in the movie about the glasses that are canon. That’s canon in the comics."

>One explanation from the comics saw readers learn that Superman was using "super-hypnotism" to change people's perception of him while he was wearing the glasses as Clark. "Something like that! I only know it from [DC Comics writer] Tom King," Gunn noted. "The first time we met was at Peter Safran’s house. We had this sort of writers group come in. One of those people was Tom King, and he was the most helpful. I’m like, 'I just don’t know how to fucking deal with the glasses thing, because it bothers the fuck out of me.'"

>"All that little stuff that people are like, 'It’s a fantasy, just let it go.' I’m like, 'No, I have to explain everything.' Everything for me has to come from a place where I believe it, as outlandish as it is," he continued. "With Rocket, I could not just make it a talking raccoon. It had to have a real foundation for where he came from and how he came to be. And I needed to believe that."

most men have huge fears about male pattern baldness, even more than having tiny dinks, since no one can see that YOU have the world's smallest peen unless you choose to show them, whereas EVERYONE can easily SEE your receeding hairline, bald spot, etc.

i always figured the reason no one thought clark was supes is because who would believe supes has a job and isn't superman ALL the time?
Like the guy can bend steel with a finger, why would he have to pretend and be some dude with a job?

Part of me wants this movie to actually be good just so everyone shitting on it here gets pissed off but another part of me knows it'll be shit anyway.

sure, but those around clark would obviously get suspicious everytime he makes a shitty excuse to disappear right before Superman shows up

I rather prefer that hidden in plain sight better, clark is more humble and meek when compared to superman.
his whole demeanor changes radically everytime he goes superman.

One time in university I got very drunk and made out with this sober fat woman. I was so drunk I gave her my number and she was very adamant about pursuing something with me. I really wasn't interested in her. I later found out she worked at this shop I had begun to frequent so I wore my reading glasses every time I went in and she genuinely never recognised me.

This stupid piece of lore is unnecessary and whatever idiot writer or director who came up with it should be embarrassed. The glasses were always supposed to be a cheeky wink and nod.

>idiot writer
I mean the problem isn't the writers at all, it is the audience. They got a lot of letters asking the same questions over and over so would give dumb answers to the dumb questions

I love when fat girls are like “he obviously finds me attractive because he has sex with me whenever we meet at the bar. He just doesn’t want to date me because he’s afraid of what his friends will think.”
Or he just gets drunk and goes for you because he’s horny and knows you’re easy.

How does he fly? I've heard explanations like telekinesis or bio electric fields but none of those seem like Superman powers. If he had like the "Super Force" style power to Flash's Speed Force, I'd buy it. But whst's the real canon explanation. Now he has mind control or hypnotism?

He's nerfing Superman because he stated Hawkgirl can't do anything to him (which is false, Nth metal is effective against Superman)
