Kal-El vs General Zod [PART 2] | Man of Steel 

Goated comment

This touched me deeply...

Perfect

Amazing comment bro. *Insert Will Smith Crying/nodding head in "The Pursuit of Happyness" gif*

syd bohne Bro when you said “Kal has no true home” 😓 😞 Wow. This was awesome to read. Brought up a lot of things that I didn’t think about. One of the reasons I love Spiderman 2 ( my favorite superhero movie), is the fact that he’s all alone. He gets fired from his job, slipping up in school, his aunt finds out Peter actually killed his uncle, Mary Jane hates him. He literally gives up being Spiderman to have a real life. Then he realizes he has to be Spiderman, no matter the sacrifice. Kal is actually in a worse situation, like you stated. People of earth hate him and want to control him, and the last of his true people, who he’s been searching for his whole life, want to destroy him. It’s heartbreaking. Amazing movie. Amazing analysis Syd 👏🏼

😂😂😂😂

His bullshit plot armour is so strong so yeah he can

Bruce Wayne never saw Clark's sacrifice.

The movie made no sense, there is no possible way any human including batman could stand a chance against superman. It was so stupid

@@dayledodwell9768 unless that human uses bullshit plot armour

i believe it's less of him being sad he's the last of his kind, and having made the active choice to end a life. that's the first in the DCEU. he upholds the ideal that no one needs die, and he won't take a life.

Henry actually broke his knees at 2:52 after reshooting the scene 32 times. Henry's cry in pain was exactly the reaction Zack wanted.

Actually superman wasn't the last of his kind The reason he cried is because he has to take a life on which he never desired

He's not crying because he is the last of his kind lmao.

Snyder's take on Superman Was, Is, and ALWAYS will be my favorite ones

the shaky cameras were too much

Jack Snyder? The director's name is Zack Snyder.

@@acurisur my bad.

because saiyans were like kryptonians

@@MrMusicopathit’s cause there’s a lack of power usage despite the importance and variety. Just ki balls and kamehameha. Just super strength durability and flight. Rarely laser vision.

Goku vs Vegeta

Although I liked Goku vs Vegeta, nothing can top Goku vs Frieza.

@@Bob-pk9jr Against bad guys that laser vision doesn't really hurt (Other kryptonions included) superman mostly uses it to distract or gain an advantage during a brawl because at the end of the day is most powerful weapon is his raw strength. He can make his laser eyes really, really powerful where they would be harmful to other superbeings but he has to stay still and charge them up sort of... against somebody as fast as him he'd never have a long enough opening before they whack him in the face to stop him. At least thats what it use to be I don't know if thats still a thing today.

Bruce Wayne gets pissed

The satellite belongs to Wayne Enterprises

Bruh he would have like 10k ping if he was playing on satellite

Also compared to “The Flash” in 2023…specifically the “microwave baby” & Kara Zor-EL during her escape from the lab 😑

@@amandahallman1091We Took everything for Granted back then, and we had it all….😔😔

The only thing that helped Superman defeat Zod was all the years he had been exposed to the sun. And Superman just straight-up overpowered Zod. While Kara just got out of prison in less than a day.

@@vicatturri2547i dont think clark was superman for much time

​@vicatturri2547 I don't know though. We saw her charging herself up. I think overall Superman is just a much more powerful being than her

⁠ ​​⁠​⁠ I’d say it was a very close call between Superman and Zod. Keep in mind that Kal El had been on Earth for decades. Zod just needed mere hours to adjust. During the final fight it’s evident that Zod was becoming more powerful as the fight went on. Superman managed to kill Zod because he gave up, he lost his entire sense of purpose and had nothing to live for. He could’ve killed that family instantly but choose not to, giving Kal El the opportunity to put him out of his misery. I promise you, if Zod was on Earth for a week before he confronted Kal El, this would’ve been very problematic and it might have been too late to stop him. A well struck performance by Michael Shannon, Zod truly is one of the greatest villains of all time, that upheld his threat “Watch this world suffer the consequences”.

​@@stark6050he means he's been under the yellow sun for longer and had more time to adjust while Kara was stuck in prison and drained of her powers, yes, Kara absorbs some yellow sun, but she never got the same 30 odd years of exposure that Clark did growing up on Earth

@Abdelrahman Eldesouki i did. The boys fights aren't that realistic but invincible fight sure it was. I think they are on the same level but I think that zod vs superman was way more realistic because it was live action. It was literally a real simulation of what would happen if two gods fought in a city but omni-man and invincible fight was intense and real too

@Abdelrahman Eldesouki compared to the cartoon? Nah live action is realistic

@Abdelrahman Eldesouki still look real and awesome in live action, but cartoon? I pass

Forreal

Id say the fight with Thanos on Titan was cooler but that's just imo

@@Alatsno that’s definitely a good one. For me this one just feels more epic. It feels like you are watching two gods fighting and the music and action draw you in.

​@@billyred889It's an incredible battle no doubt, but the immense weight of the battle with Thanos holds equal weight if not more actually! These are two evenly matched warriors whereas with the Avengers et al vs Thanos it's a god vs a bunch of heroes and heroines vs 1 god bc NONE OF THEM can singularly defeat Thanos! I mean who? Spider-Man? Black Panther? The Hulk ? How about Thor? Nope not even him! Yet it takes those who alone would stand not an insects chance alone, to find the courage and faith in their teammates, partners and friends and some they don't even know to stand and fight! I'm pretty sure Superman would be pretty damn impressed...

@@rickpeterson8825 the battle against Thanos is amazing. It’s a matter of opinion, personally the super man fight just feels like there is more at stake for me and I think it’s completely due to the soundtrack and the way the camera follows them as they fight.

If I had one critique about this movie it's that. Lol but it's more funny to me than something thatd take me out of the film. Girl can straight teleport haha

🤣

I always liked fast women!

@@fuffoon lol

@@lCebolitosl you should check out the comment by Alex Kim. Really good. Basically, they were literally the last of his kind, who he has been searching for. Humans always pushed him around, and so it was really hard to accept he’d have to kill the last ones

Yes! I love the MCU, but this movie captures just how devastating being with superspeed and superstrength would be. MCU really makes Thor and Hulk look like they are tiptoing around even at their maddest.

@Kieron Campion Not when they got someone equally strong and fast fighting them. Holding back just gives that enemy more of a chance to inflict more destruction in the future. If he was fighting Luthor or another villain that doesn't match up to him in speed or strength, then he may have a chance to hold back. But here, this is all out, kill or be killed.

@Kieron Campion like cracking jokes while the whole city gets devastated? Oh yeah. Even if the collateral damage killed a few people there, had Zod won he would've proceed to extinguish the human race, every single human on the planet, out of pure anger and frustration.

@@Servellion UHHH Disney?

Kieron Campion what are you in about that would not stop Zoe and your forgetting that they aren’t human

I feel asleep in the movie theatre watching Man of Steel. It's too slow, it's too dark for a Superman movie (would have worked for a graphic novel but not a movie) and the final fight between Zod and Superman is too short.

@@acurisuri agree the first part of the movie was so fucking long, boring and pretty badly written. Snyder does fights well and that’s about it

​​@@kays8976Funny, I say the same thing after revisiting the old Superman movies. Man of Steel absolutely clears

His idea of ​​making a movie in which Superman begins in a world where heroes already exist does not convince me very much, Snyder managed to perfectly show the impact that a being like Superman would have in a world where beings like that are not common at all and that was barely the beginning.

@@acurisurI remember when it first came out ppl was trashing it now time goes on and everyone’s calling it a masterpiece but I specifically ppl critiquing it badly when it first came out calling it bad it’s funny how nostalgia effects ppl

I’m stuck on marvel and man of steel is a good movie

I guess that the criticism that superman causes so much distraction happened because critics at the time were Sick of the level of distraction that Michael bay was doing with his transformers films

I thought most of the hate came from people who hate Zack Snyder and his portrayal of Superman.

@@adamcade604 Bay? The Bay Transformers issue is the storylines that the characters are going through not his directing...sure his films has lots of destruction but that's what folks go to watch his films for. This got heat because people didn't like that Supes killed Zod...That was the biggest factor is people dogging this movie and that Henry C came off very serious in tone and not as bright and cheery as superman. The fight and the destruction wasn't the issue. Oh and another thing that folks keep complaining about was that they wanted to see superman saving more people during the fight...to which many keep pointing out zod is a kryptonian like him he cant be flying around the world and fighting him. The Flash movie showed that supes HAD to kill ZOd and there was no otherr option BUT back then people were spoiled and hyper critical of fims. Stuff like this got released today it'd be an easy box office billion with people saying its a masterpiece compared to what we are getting now. Snyder works tend to be appreciated over time instead of right away.

Not all marvel fans are brain dead, stop assuming and let the marvel fans also enjoy this film 😂

Seriously? Shannon played Zod as a whining pussy. Terrence Stamp's Zod never would have complained like that. He also didn't need a suit to protect him.

Idk if it’s just me but I feel like Michael Shannon would be amazing at MCU Norman Osborn.

@@thevisualedge9346 he brought depth to the character. I will always enjoy watching a multidimensional character more than just a bad guy who is just bad because he is bad. "My soul, that is what you have taken from me." He was driven to villainy through circumstance.

@@hermmeadows9162 I mean, I guess that's depth, but he was still a whiny complainer. Not a single time that he was on screen did I feel like Superman was in any real danger. I was so glad when Superman finally snapped his neck at the end just so he'd shut up.

While the Snyder Cut made me respect Steppenwolf a whole lot more. I’d still say Zod is my favorite DCEU villain.

Me too😔

The question is: why didn't any body else? He could've blown the roof off the place.

Dude same

@@arcaetype good question. But we needed to see Clark’s emotions in that moment more than the realistic destruction of the building.

Cool

I don't think any live action Dragon Ball will top the animation.

i think hans zimmer

@@dimithraanton5087 The Goat

That's hans zimmer for ya. A combination of Zack's VFX and Zimmer's score.

for some reason the abnoxious cgi and over the top destruction was suprisingly distracting us from a decent musical score.

Hans zimmer making awesome shit like this and the crysis 2 opening theme

Michael Shannon is his name, he’s a very underrated actor, but he is an amazing one. that ‘Never’ was so believable in this scene, as if he truly would never stop

He was also in pearl harbour played a crew member of a bomber and saves his guys lives at the end

He also had a great character in the HBO series Boardwalk Empire as Federal Prohibition agent Nelson Van Alden. The guy does great work.

@@ucanhnguyen8619 dc is dead It is officially new version of marvel cringe jokes

@@clerk1973you meant the dceu is dead, and yes the mcu jokes are so cringy

@Ders snek in me boots But at that point and beyond, Kal had no clue of his cousin's existence, and still doesn't. As far as he understands it, he's the last of his species, and he caused it through his own hands (literally at that), and has to face the reality of it without having anyone who actually understands what's it like to be the last of your kind (until Martian Manhunter came onto the scene, that is), and therefore, probably feels alone in a certain sense despite having people who genuinely care and love him.

There’s a vid about the last existing bird of an extinct species, as it cries for a partner or even friend to respond it only receives silence. God have mercy for the last bastard of our kind for we are the first and most likely final truly intelligent species.

thats not the reason he screamed or was sad

And the fact too Clark also had never killed at that point, even when he had used his powers to help others before donning the Superman costume. And the fac t he _HAD_ to kill Zod shook him deep down, since he didn't want to, but was left with no choice.

@@chocktalk that is complete nonsense, since of course it was, at least part of the reason

@@MonteLeeMyPOV god like beings

Two unbreakable beings trying to break each other among breakable things

@@MonteLeeMyPOV Superman and Zod are god like beings compared to humans....

Not at all. It was the magic of Nolan's screenplay... Damn he is awesome

Ahead of it's time.

Because it has so many ridiculously stupid plot points. 1. the whole kryptonian act is so convoluted and silly. pregnancy is banned yet a famous scientist manages to hide his wife for the whole pregnancy? super duper skull with genetic code and it's just floating in some watery cavern? superman's mother peacefully waits for her death and is artfully consumed by ash and fire. 2. Zod is shot out to space as punishment... like what? is that standard procedure? is space full of frozen criminally condemned kryptonians? 3. superman isn't allowed to save his father. An old man got in, had the time to signal to clark not to come and then peacefully wait for his death and is artfully consumed by dust and wind. Clark could have walked in and got him out without ever revealing any super powers. (edit: and the fact that this guy who knows he has an invulnerable adoptive son, goes in regardless. If he thought he was going to be fine, then there is exactly 0 reason to not have clark do it because there's no way clark'd reveal any powers if old man kent could do it with his old human body). 4. All kryptonian outposts die out because krypton exploded...? so why would making another outpost on earth change anything, they literally say in the movie the outposts need krypton. They even took the terraforming machines from a dead planet that like earth, would fail without krypton for some reason. so on and so forth. It's visually engaging, but it's woefully lacking in substance and is full of contradictions. It's not a bad movie, but what I can't stand is the insanity of MoS/BvS/watchmen fans that feel compelled to strawman people who dislike those movies and praise things that are incredibly mundane. Simply put, MoS rings hollow and most people notice that. Putting jesus imagery and edgy lines loved by angsty teens makes a masterpiece not.

@@zyxyx6754 1. Pick up a comic book. 2. Watch the fucking film again and try to understand.

@@tclturbo2456 Since you didn't answer any listed points nor the general reason as to why people don't like MoS, I'm just going to go ahead and say you had no answers. 1. people don't like unreasonably convoluted comics either. 2. you watch the "fucking film again" and try to understand.

​@@tclturbo2456 like I said, you know you can't refute any of them so you try to dismiss them without basis. The less sense something makes, the easier it is to pick apart, you should come up with a better excuse than that.

Superman/Batman/Wonder Woman vs Doomsday was better than this, from the same director. This fight had the potential to be amazing but it's way too short.

​@@acurisurNo that fight was trash I can barely see shit dark also the soundtracks was trash in that fight

​@@acurisurHow is this fight short.? It was almost 8 minutes

I love how this is the only movie I've seen in live action capable of transcripting the level of devastation a fight between these characters would be. Even the MCU falls short... The only memorable huge battle was the battle of New York, and even then it was kinda "safe". Here you see people dying, a city being totally destroyed, and absolute chaos... All because two "gods" are fighting each other.

nah logan injecting the serum and looking like prime wolverine is better imo

One of my favorite moments in any comic book movie, so badass.

🔥

Fr.

It made me think on my latest rewatch, “Oh, Zod is Krypton’s Superman.” The culmination of their eugenicist, colonialist, xenophobic values; their Übermensch, with the power to destroy anything, any “heresy,” in his way.

Yeah. Taking the last member of your race's life shouldn't sit well (especially when you have no other choice). I think that goes over most hater's heads.

Yup very true.

@@eternalblessing4984 Very true indeed man.

It's because General Zod was also once a dear friend of Kal El's father Jor El. Jor El begged Zod to see reason as well, that their world was dying and needed a savior not a warrior and that he just wanted his friend. It is tragic but it also proves an old addage that some warriors are so set in their ways they cannot see the greater good. Kryptonians were like humans once that is why Jor El chose Earth. A people that could grow and advance and become even more advanced and powerful than even Krypton itself once was.

@@deathstrike Yup very true for those details for Superman and the DCEU!

This is how most superhero fights should be

More like real Dragon ball movie fight should be if they intend to make any.

I agree

Amen

Thanks you for your comment despite all the hate on this movie. Tbh people slept on this masterpiece

Yes

Same

So was Kara Zor el weaker than Kal el? I was kinda sad with how Kara just kept failing and won in literally no scenario even with name tag and wall hacks enabled by flash /:

​​@@Sarah_Kinzyeah Kara is weaker than Kal given that he was raised in yellow sun and consumed more light

Dont talk about shit movie the flash

One would argue she was spent in captivity and away from the sun when she got to Earth so she hadn’t developed any her abilities nor super strength allowing herself to be easily experimented on and tortured. So yes, she was significantly weaker than Kal El who grew up his entire life *in* the yellow sun, absorbing it.

Batman is just a human what do you expect him to stopped the whole army.

This movie somehow more destructive than the Pacific Rim movies

@@MrGlenbw again, this is the greatest film to depict Superman's origins. The krypton sequence is unmatched. And James Gunn won't be doing an origin film as he stated. Which is stupid if you're planning to start a new universe but whatever

ikr, if the fight takes longer, we know superman got no chance fighting someone equal to power with military experience...

If the other Kryptonians adapted with Zod & learned how to fly even, it would be a literal gangbang for Superman and the end of the world 100%

In the comics, it is actually said or implied that Zod never manages to beat Superman because of either his limited exposure to the yellow Sun, achieving powers AS Superman but not as developed as his, or ( and this is my personal one) because of his age( in Superman/Batman -Apocalypse, Batman said that Kara metabolizes Sun radiation more efficiently, probably because she is younger than Kal-El), or a combo of both.

@@ragael1024 It actually makes a lot of sense that Zod's age works against him since he was as old, or older than Superman's father. That is a great point.

We can sympathize with him, we saw his past, and we saw him suffer watching his destroyed home and people. This is the best iteration of Zod in movies.

Critics and some of Snyder's haters wanted a copy paste of Christopher reeves superman and they cannot accept that Snyder made the difference

The main issue with this fight is not them leveling the city. It’s Superman being apathetic to the people in danger while it’s being leveled. Every portrayal of Superman would have him saving people left and right while also fighting Zod. That is a pretty large over sight here. All they needed was him saving a few people while the buildings crumbled and it would have been a perfect fight. But they needed to set up B vS and if Superman had been saving people then Batman wouldn’t have hated him as much.

Do you really think Superman would have been able to save anyone in this fight if he let himself get distracted? Odds are he would just get the civilians killed in the crossfire, or Zod would kill them out of spite in the middle of the battle.

@@omegashinobi There’s nothing logical about any of these movies. I’m explaining to you and others what the major problem for so many people were with that scene. I love this movie and saw it multiple times upon its release. That one fight scene really soured a large number of people to the movie.

ikr

It's Hans Zimmer. We don't need to praise him.

@@eternalblessing4984 facts

they r praising him cause this video doesn’t contain the rest of the movie. zack snyder can do good action scenes and visuals but he’s an abysmal writer. be a producer, not the director

Exactly this Superman film is what helped me become the DC fan I am today

Nope

I'm a really big fan of the justice league

It’s not but whatever...

Personally I’m a Christopher Reeves man, mostly because me and my dad used to watch his movies when I was a kid, so I guess that’s why i didn’t like this movie as much

And what's worse is this movie was released one year after the first Avengers movie came out and everyone expected a Marvel movie.

Dam That's a really good insight into

Yep and since he is a soldier he wanted a warrior death

Perfectly Balanced I know this already.

He knew what Superman would choose and what it would force him to do. It left him with no option but to be merciless which is something the Kryptonians said they could do without hesitation. That anguished scream was Superman facing an awful truth.

poor supes went through 5 buildings because of cape

The marvel movies do better but DC always put a sense of reality into their movies.

@@tylerdurden6574 the problem with MCU is that lately they focus more on the comedic side instead of making it tragic

@@lapp5423 common bro if the movie industries will produce same type of movies then what will be the difference between them, I enjoy the darker side of dc and Also the comedic side of Marvel, Both are the best in their own way.

@@ActiveFire533 it's a joke . literally that movie was a joke nothing good at it and stop comparing that trash shit to dc take it from a die hard fan of marvel but it's not up to DC's lvl . the only good characters or movies are " iron man and black panther "nothing else

I think it was because he didn't want to take a live no matter how evil it was. he pleaded with him to stop, but Zod refused, in truth Zod was a product, an example of why krypton was doomed. he didn't care about the consequences of him reshaping earth, or how what it would do to the human race. He only thought of his people and had no moral restrictions!!

He screamed because he didn't have a choice, he knew that Zod was genetically created for the sole purpose of serving & defending krypton, Kal KNEW that no matter what, Zod would stop at nothing. On top of that, he needed to end it anyway because Zod kept getting stronger at a extremely fast rate, it wouldn't have been long before Zod would have been slaughtering Supes.

@@ssjbroly8735 Yes, and then turned his sights on humanity! Zod was a prime example of why krypton failed!

Don't worry Kal. You have a cousin you don't know.

Wait it's already 10 years!? Holy shit

The first film to truly capture what I imagine a fight between two "gods" among men would look like on earth fr fr

I remember watching this with my mom and cousin when I was 10, and now I’m 20! Still one of the best superman movies hands down 🙏🏼

Yes

Zod's training prepared him for ground combat, not aerial combat so his training was useless. Then You have to consider that Clark is younger, faster, and stronger. It was never really a contest and Zod knew that. That's why he tried to destroy as many buildings as possible. So he could kill as many humans as possible

It’s actually the other way around. Zod is a trained elite fighting someone who has zero experience and still losing.

@@dontbother9473 he only lost because Clark went for the kill

@@dontbother9473 exactly

One more week zod would have crushed Superman and taken over the world. In that moment Superman had to end him

I think 5 more minutes Zod would have been too strong. His bred in physical abilities to be a strong warrior plus the power his cells were absorbing from just one day on Earth? Add to it look how many tries it took Superman to fly, where Zod does it on his first attempt. Zod had more potential than Superman which made him dangerous.

Indeed but apparently many people didint like it at the time the movie came out... -. -

Instablaster

That's exactly the reason I don't like this movie. Zod's death scene would have been perfect if Superman was actively trying to save people which makes his internal conflict better. Zod represents what people think of Superman, but he should be trying to prove that such omnipotence can be used for good. Zod being killed would be what seals it, but instead he fucks around killing thousands of people for the sake of the fight and the random family just seems like the most basic of tools for tension. immortal gods punching each other, killing innocents and then Superman saves a random family because he good and the other baddie.

@@iank3915 Grow up Kid. This movie is not like your fantasy world of cartoon first of all Zod just said that this humans he adopted he will kill them all. Yet here you are expecting that superman can just push who has expertise in combat with equal power of superman and superman just learned how to get use to his power. His trying to Stop Zod you idiot but Zod is too powerful to be stop by just punching he even pushed him in space you blind but Zod still push him into the city and the last part you expect Zod to just stop killing people by what you call justice he made a great decision kill Zod to stop this madness or restrain him by fighting you can see in the movie it's so obvious omy god Zod wanted to kill those people by his heat vision and superman was forced to kill him to stop his madness he can't just knock him up coz he always going up and continue his madness. Superman told him before he snap his neck that "zod STOP!" but zod just replied him "never" are you idiot? Which of that part you can't understand? Two person who has godlike power fight each other, the one who wants to destroy and wants to protect and you expect there will be no casualties? Are you crazy? Even hulk vs abomination there are lots of casualties on Avengers age of ultron there are lots of casualties on Sokovia. You always Blame superman for the destruction and deaths and yet you didn't even have the brain to recognize the true villain which is Zod who cause it all, he is the one destroying the buildings killing the people and you expect superman to just save or carry people while zod is aggressively punching him imagine kid he is carrying a person with him and Zod is punching him! Grow up kid this is not cartoon!

@@iank3915 so you want superman to show off that he can stop Zod without killing him just to show that he is not what ignorant people expect him to be? Tell what and where in that movie that can stop Zod even superman was push to his limit and still Zod is eager to kill those humans and in that time there is still no kryptonite that can be used. All that time superman is trying to stop him which you simple minded can't understand because you are more focus on action sequence. That's why next time try to understand the story and listen to their dialogues don't skip it kid. Even I understand the destruction on the Avengers age of ultron it's not avengers fault but ultron who cause it and they are just their trying to stop them. Btw I am a Marvel and DC fan and a superhero fan. If you love marvel you are not required to hate dc and vice-versa

Facts

You're def not the only one. 👍👍👍

It's not YOUR opinion It's a fact

Kal El genuinely did not want to kill Zod. Dru Zod and Jor El were childhood friends and always dreamed of how to save Krypton. But unlike Jor El, Dru Zod was born and bred foremost a warrior. Jor El being part of the Thinking Guild (the greatest of the Guild) he sought a cure and peaceful solution to Krypton's destruction. He achieved the cure. Kal El was natural born for a reason. That was the cure for the Kryptonians being tied to Krypton and unable to leave it. But Dru Zod was unconvinced and accused Jor El of heresy. He formed the Sword of Rao after the Kryptonian Sun God Rao and attempted an overthrow, but was defeated by both Jor El and the Sapphire Guard. Thus leading to the events in the movie and the battle on Earth.

@@kelleysmith6146 you clearly ACTUALLY watched the movie AND paid attention to the story . Hats up to you
