I would argue that Gunn's Superman has had its sales negative effected -because- of Snyder's shitty take on Superman. I don't think Snyder's ticket sales were because of Snyder. They were because of Superman being an icon.
Of course, Snyder alone isn't why DC's popularity is in the toilet. Yet Snyder's garbage films helped sour the public on Superman and DC. Of course, all the blame lies with Warners. They are the idiots that hired Snyder in the first place.
While I think Gunn is a step in yhe right direction, I also think he is just not a good choice for Superman and mainline DC. He should have been in charge of Wildstorm and The Authority. Even then his Engineer is crap being shoe horned in here as a Luthor lacky. Could just as well have been Livewire.

I love reading about soiboys online blaming Snyder for Normalman flopping. As if Gunn ever made a single successful movie outside of the MCU brand. As if all his WB movies haven't been flops. As if the studio who hired him didn't force him to majorly revise the tone of the movie upon realizing he just made GoTG again.

All the shill lines are there. If it flops, blame Snyder. If it's a hit, blame Snyder. Whatever you do, don't talk about how every trailer of this movie looked like complete ass and the movie's entire gimmick was "look Superman saves cats again".

Audiences don't care about these fanboy wars. They were advertised a movie that looked too childish, cartoonish and slap stick for them to bother.

I mean Zaslav got what he paid for, high critical reception with pitiful box office reception. Even GoTG in its heyday couldn’t beat 900m. Because Gunn like Snyder is on the niche side. You need something James Cameron-esque to get the big numbers. Incredibly basic but sincere. Gunn is incredibly basic but also insincere.

Literally this. GotG only did well because it was attached to the MCU. That's it. And I want to believe that 99% of people already know this and it's only the few vocal MoS hating boomers who were rabid about Gunn's success. I don't even think they like Gunn's Superman I think it might be anything they view as "opposed to MoS". Which is funny because Zack Snyder has openly stated his support for Gunn's Superman.

The metric that MOS would’ve bombed in today’s Post Covid direct steaming climate. The terrible critic reviews and word of mouth would’ve killed it. People would’ve just waited for it to hit HBO Max instead paying $16. At best it’d be performing like F4 which had a similar drop. But F4 got good reviews

It’s all variable. People change the narrative between “don’t trust critics” and “yay critics” all the time. In reality critics are merely a sample size of around 200 people and they have practically zero effect on the box office. In this case it’s the only victory Reddit could pull for Gunn who’s big on there.

I'll be honest. I like the new Superman. I want to see more of this verse. I also liked MoS. I thought it was a uniquely fresh take on Superman. Especially with its realism. Like all the sci-fi elements and real-world paranoia. At least on-screen we had never gotten a live-action version of that. The movie was very much in the vein of new 52. But I like Corenswet's version too. It's less realism and more comicbook goofiness which is refreshing to see. Like Superman's healing processing being literally a giant magnifying glass. And literally any scene with Luthor. I like them both.

It was 100% considered a disappointment, they were expecting The Dark Knight type sales, with Nolan plastered all over Man of Steel and a massive marketing campaign. The entire reason you got BvS was Man of Steel not grossing as much as WB expected and them pivoting from a Man of Steel 2 to a Batman Superman crossover, hoping to get the Marvel success with The Avengers from the previous year.

Man of Steel being a disappointment is some hilariously revisionism. The theatrical Superman IP was dead in the water and MoS only came to be because Nolan and Goyer came up with and proposed it on a whim. Otherwise there wouldn’t have been a Superman movie at all. MoS was a benchmark to see where the character stood in the modern market and it did well. BvS happened because WB (including Snyder) thought they could mix peanut butter and jelly to literally double the box office.

Superman is the ultimate symbol of hope, selflessness, and moral clarity. A beacon of what humanity could be at its best. He’s not just a guy with powers, he’s an ideal, a farmboy from Krypton who chooses to protect a world that doesn’t always trust him, not because he has to, but because he believes in the good of people. His strength isn’t just in his fists, it’s in his unwavering compassion, his ability to inspire, and his refusal to compromise his values, even when it’s hard. He’s the guy who saves cats from trees and stops world-ending threats with the same earnestness, because to him, every life matters. That’s why he’s endured for decades, he’s the hero we aspire to, not the one we deserve. Man of Steel takes a sledgehammer to that legacy. Zack Snyder’s Superman is a brooding, conflicted loner who feels more like a gritty antihero than the Boy Scout who defines the character. The film strips away his warmth, replacing it with a dour, Jesus-coded messiah complex that’s more about spectacle than substance. Instead of inspiring hope, this Clark Kent mopes through a joyless world, snapping Zod’s neck in a moment that’s not just brutal but fundamentally un-Superman. The real Superman would’ve found another way because that’s what he does. He doesn’t level cities in CGI slugfests, leaving countless dead in the rubble, or sulk about his role as a savior. Man of Steel sacrifices the heart of the character for grim, try-hard “realism” that misses the point entirely. Superman isn’t supposed to be relatable, he’s supposed to be better than us, a light in the dark, not a brooding shadow. The film’s a betrayal, a soulless husk of a hero who should’ve been so much more.

I didn't. When I said Boomers and Gen Xers who grew up reading comics, specifically Superman, I'm referring to the decades of comics where Supes in portrayed as a symbol of hope that I was referring to in my post. I wasn't trying to specify what comics in particular but rather the general perception of how people perceive the character from the various comic runs where it didn't matter what author was writing the comic because they ALL had the same general vision of what Superman is and should be. Zack Snyder did not. My point was very clear and should have been enough to answer your question.

The bulk of Man of Steel had Clark ruminating and studying morality as a whole and his place on the moral sphere. His conclusion was to protect humanity without question.
>He’s not just a guy with powers, he’s an ideal, a farmboy from Krypton who chooses to protect a world that doesn’t always trust him, not because he has to, but because he believes in the good of people.
This is the exact thesis of Man of Steel. In the film he's forced to choose between saving humanity or turnin earth into a second Krypton. His conclusion wasn't easy, but his choice was made: Krypton had squandered its own survival in the past and its last representatives tried to sacrifice an entire planet to have a second chance. Of course Superman would see this as reprehensible.
I don't even need to quote the rest of your retarded ass post because it's variations of those sentences.
As for killing Zod, Superman would absolutely kill him if it meant saving lives in the heat of the moment. He doesn't have a no-kill rule. Like the film itself, he would also be devastated to do so.
Fact is, you overdramatic disney adults just couldn't fathom the idea of a Superman who was in a position in which he had to use his fists while also having his deepest morals tested with hard choices. You just want faggotty quips and scenes where he's saving squirrels.

The idea that Clark spends the bulk of the movie “ruminating and studying morality” is a stretch so far it might as well be in another galaxy. What we actually get is a brooding, mopey Clark drifting through flashbacks and contrived dilemmas that barely scratch the surface of moral complexity. The film doesn’t show him wrestling with nuanced ethical questions, it’s more like he’s sulking through a highlight reel of “should I save people or not?” moments, with all the depth of a kiddie pool.
You say Clark’s conclusion is to “protect humanity without question” is straight up nonsense. If anything, Man of Steel portrays a Superman who’s less about unwavering heroism and more about collateral damage and questionable priorities. He’s not studying morality, he’s stumbling through a midlife crisis at age 30, leaving a trail of destroyed city blocks and zero introspection about the consequences. His “protection” of humanity comes off as a plot checkbox, not a profound moral stance culminating in a finale that undercuts any pretense of moral clarity. Let’s not kid ourselves, this isn’t a philosophical journey, it’s a grim, overblown action flick pretending to have a depth

Back then HBO Max was available only in some countries and the movie was an exclusive thing for the streaming service.
So China was one of those countries that didn't have the movie. Chinese kept begging WB to release the movie there for like months, and WB only allowed once the Chinese started to literally pirate the movie and create giant screenings, some even making money of it.
So China eventually used that as an argument to get WB to sell them the movie, but WB wouldn't allow them to release the movie theatrically, which is what China wanted.

spare me the "half the fucking movie" bullshit. You’re reaching harder than Clark trying to save Metropolis from his own collateral damage. Those so called scenes of Clark “asking people questions” about right and wrong are barely a blip in Man of Steel’s bloated runtime. What, you mean the handful of shallow chats with Pa Kent or that priest cameo that lasts all of two minutes? Those aren’t deep dives into morality, dumbass, they’re half-baked, cliched moments that scream “we need to pad the script with something profound.” Clark’s not seeking “multiple human perspectives” like some alien philosopher, he’s just an emo kid moping around, paralyzed by indecision, while the movie pretends it’s deep. If you think that’s “literally half the movie,” you must’ve been watching a fan edit that cut out all the explosions and jarring close-ups. The reality? It’s a fraction of the film, drowned out by endless action sequences and a plot that cares more about CGI destruction than actual moral complexity. Calling me a dumbass doesn’t change the fact that Man of Steel’s “moral study” is as thin as Kryptonian ice, just a flimsy excuse for Superman to punch things and call it heroism. Try again.

Building was empty by then, many of them were.
The world engine was going on for awhile before his fight with Zod, and the military worked to evacuate the citizens while Superman was on the other side of the planet destroying the world engine's less populated section. By the time he came back much of the city was evacuated with only a few left at the end of the line.

In the comics before the 86 reboot Superman would have super-memory, as in he could recall his infancy back in Krypton, and in fact he'd time-travel back to when Krypton still existed so he could hang out with Jor and Lara, or then make himself small so he could hang out with the kryptonians inside the bottled city of Kandor (remember that shit?), and in fact he considered himself so much a kryptonian he'd spout shit like "Great Rao", as in the Kryptonian deity. Meaning he wasn't even Christian, but a fucking alien pagan.

Let's be honest. The only reason MoS did okay in theaters is because it was banking off of the massive success of Dark Knight and Iron Man the year before. People were all in for Superhero films. It was the start of a new era. If they all had know that MoS was going to be shit, they wouldn't have paid for a ticket but it was too late. Then it just got worse from there with DC.

The entire gunnfag argument is that Superman did absolutely nothing good and absolutely everything bad. Anything that contradicts this, especially scenes from the film itself, doesn't count.

The whole point of Batman's character in BvS was that he assumed Superman wasn't a good guy and then learning that no, he was actually a really good guy who actually saved the world.
Of course gunnfags don't give a shit. They just want to be right even in the midst of 2025 Superman being a huge flop.

How does Superman get the credit for Perry saving that woman? It's not like Perry wouldn't have tried to save her regardless, and it's not like Perry knows Superman is fighting a machine across the globe right now

He stopped the world engine, which stopped the quakes, which saved the woman and every other survivor.

This. It's in the fucking movie itself. Perry is trying to save that woman, but she's stuck. He isn't able to rescue her, so he decides to sacrifice his life to stay there with her, so she won't die alone. But Superman is able to stop the DUBSTEP machine and thus both are safe.

Gunnfags have to ignore the entire world engine and what it was doing for their "criticisms" to ever hold water. They'll just ignore it.

You can't go a single post without console war nonsense. Everything is just meaningless us vs them shit, which invalidates any attempt at discourse because it's immediately clear you are motivated by a desire to have your sports team "win" a made up contest rather than actually discuss anything.

They have completely subsumed their own personality within Snyder and now they themselves as merely an extension of Snyder, thus what they perceive as an attack on him is an attack on them. Of course, their version of Snyder is a completely made up idealized whatever figure, whatever it is they need (friend, father, idol, coach, brother, self-insert, pick one), so really they'll just prattle on about their own made up character whom they identify with entirely.

First post shill post
Superman didn't make its money back
Movie's combined budget we know of is $225+200 = 425 millions.
With BO being $580mlns it is massive flop with potential 200-300 millions loss for a studio.
Move to streaming so early confirm these estimations.

excuse me I have a random drab screenshot
this means like Prometheus and all that Greek shit, I never read any of it but I tell others they have to so I sound smarter, like Prometheus was a guy and he was mad at people probably, so that's what we call an "allusion" which is like an illusion but it's spelled with an a like apple, another thing that had an apple was the Bible, and that's another allusion, I've never read that either but it's a pretty big deal so allusions to the Bible are really deep you know, so anyway, this is all symbolizing the very deep moral struggle, his cape is like straight so that's like the line thing around a painting, you know, the doorway but for paintings, whatever it's called, and paintings are really deep, and this is like those, I have a few artbooks I've saved the names of to post and say you have to peruse this to understand the movie, I don't know much about them but I bet they're pretty deep, and also the desert is really flat here, which is like Krypton being gone, it's like flat, lined, lined, see like the lined painting thing I said above, and also like flatlined like dead, that's a play on words see, it's clever, only Snyder could think of playing on words, he invented the camera, and if you think about how Superman is standing up here, it's like he's standing up in a philosophical way, like the way those statues of famous guys with Greek names stand up, there's like books with their names and that makes it really meaningful, see no other movie out there can do this kind of deep underlying message in every frame. Frame, that's it, the painting doorway, it's a frame. So like frame is the real meaning here. Frames are straight. Pluto was a Greek guy that wrote about lighting fires in caves. I know that one. He wrote that fire is like man's hubris and putting it in a cave is like a house. Fire like Krypton when it blew up, there was loads of fire. And in Metropolis, you didn't get it, but all the fire was mankind.
