Honestly Guy and MrT were the most interesting parts of the movie. I wish there was more of them.

Superman was merely okay and I didn't care for Lex. It's another version of Lex where he's a faggy weepy spazzy homo.

Well one the things i could criticize about the movie is that. It felt more like a sequel, like it was a superman 2. Either dc or gunn didn't want to straight up make another superman origin movie, there are of those already and it would make the process of making a cinematic universe slower. I think it would have been nice, but dc is probably desperate to accelerate a profitable universe to heal from what snyder did.

Well the point was about superman not being the focus at various points of the movie. Which wouldn't have been a problem for an origin movie. As i said this felt more like a superman 2 for not having superman being the focus of the movie the whole time.Still a fun movie

Because a movie should stand on its own, especially if it’s an emotional movie where you want people to care about the various characters. Also you can run down the basics of Superman’s origins in like 10 minutes, it really doesn’t have to be as cumbersome as people are acting.

Superman needed a film where he is the star. James Gunn doesn't know how to do that so his approach to the film was incredibly lackadaisal. He doesn't understand the character of Superman. At all. Because Gunn doesn't understand God or how in the west Superman is supposed to be the fictional character that's the closest hop and step away from bridging the gap to the Almighty and reverence for him. Superman is supposed to be the icon. The daddy figure. The leader of the Justice League everyone relies on because if Clark is missing there's no chance of victory so all hope also goes out the window.

You don't write Superman screeching like a pansy going "WHERE'S LE DOG???" Gunn should've read more comicbook interactions between Lex and Clark to respect their dynamic. He says he identified more with Lex, the flawed human, which is why Lex gets the bulk of scenes.

Lois should've really taken it easy on Clark during that interview. She should've been more feminine and understanding to his plight and built him up as opposed to tearing him down, picking at his ego, throwing "Supershit" at him when she knows it hurts his feelings and then doing absolutely nothing to apologize or make it better directly in the moment like a sympathetic supportive woman would. Too much of Gunn writing his own experiences into the script instead of the ideal of Superman. I don't want to be the Superman Gunn has envisioned. And neither does he.

Nigga he was a plot device used to explain the science crap in the film. A good black comic character was Black panther in civil war. He was kinda trash in his own film but in Civil War he was a bad ass with an actual character arc in that movie.

But it was because underestimating him.
Becuase of his pride he didn't think anything of that stupid slut and her selfies which fucked his image. And because he didn't think clark would have krypto destroy his drones he lost the fight against him. He underestimated everyone and lost.

At first I got scared that he was going to be the only character treated with reverence in the movie, the only sane character being a black man surrounded by white buffons, like a tv commercial. But in the third act they make fun of him and he is pretty much inept
Wonder what a Batman filmed by Gunn would look like, he doesn’t seems to be able to take anything seriously, and Batman gets exposed hard when you introduce anything remotely goofy

I felt it was trying to highlight the differences between Clark and Lex. Superman treats people right and trusts them, so when he needed help they were willing to stick their necks out for them. Lex uses and abuses people, so it eventually comes back to bite him when it matters most. Personally I liked the conflict being resolved based on their characters rather than Superman just needing to punch something really hard

Only in the form of one ex? No. I get where you're coming from and would like to excuse the movie because I like your point but there isn't enough in the film to support it. Personally I just didn't like Clark having to watch a man die in front of him and then release that awful unmasculine whelp. I'd replay that on a constant loop if I were Lex, the stressful scream of my superpowered nemesis. Lol. But anyway yeah I hear where you're coming from.

Gunn introduced too much comic book weirdness just right out of the gate. Clones, Pocket universes, Kaijus, Justice gang, Weird interdimensional creatures and Krypto. It feels like a second entry to a cinematic universe.

They should have just made a superman movie from Luthor's POV where he was treated a God amongst men who is considered to be some Great genius in a world of metahumans. Then he gets overshadowed by Superman who he respects at first but goes full human supremacist when its revealed that he's is an alien. The thought of an alien being a better man than him makes him go off the rails little by little throughout the movie and gets obsessed at defeating superman at all cost.
He finds about Krypton and finds Kryptonite and uses it to defeat Superman. Have a kryptonite powered Metallo as the final act. Introduce Supergirl dropping off krypto at the fortress at the end and have an end credit scene of a cloning pod with a bald Lex Luthor.

Everything that happens in this movie can be the follow up.

It works because people have seen all this before in Marvel movies. There's no point in pretending the viewer hasn't seen a dozen comic book movies before this one, it just wastes everyone's time. I liked how it uses Superman's naivety to covey that we're early in the timeline instead of some contrived exposition or origin story.

Guy wasn't even that obnoxious to people. He was cocky and had an attitude, but he didn't act like that to deliberately piss people off, and he stopped joking around when the situation called for it. Like when Lex shows the El message and Guy asks the dumb harem question in complete earnest because he kinda has to. The joke is on him a few times because he acts like a blockhead, but he's no less capable than the other characters. His primary flaw (or "flaw" depending on how you see it, he's a space cop after all) is that he's unwilling to intervene in national and international affairs.
