The BEST Modern Adaptation of Superman 

They took that line from the comics - it was a great moment!

@@BenChanNYC which one?

​@@bulletxwound3559 Superman: For All Seasons.

@@manehriimao2079 thanks, I'll definitely check it out

His super suit was originally made by Martha out of his baby blanket he was wrapped in from krypton.

I don’t about Lois and Clarke or the new 52 dc films

Question how good is the show? I will never watch the show But I am curious

​@IceGodzilla619 the family dynamic, he writing, the stakes, and so many cool twists

@@kadegetslaid634 cool

Agreed.

Because it's a cw show and the show is padded down with drama

It's a great show. Except I think that because they are a 15 episode show where each episode is like 45minutes long they had to padd out the show with drama. If it was an 8 hour show with 8 episodes I think it would have been a better show with less fluff

​@@vincentluong7550i don't get why people forget there drama in the comics, there's human elements to every story. Yes I didn't like Sarah Cushing after the Jordan thing but not once I hadn't had a good time with this show. Like Supergirl and later season of the Flash were trash.

@@KonEl17 not all of the drama was bad. However I would say outside of the drama with the Kent's family. I didn't really care for any of the other drama. Yes there was drama in the comics however it never felt like they had to add drama to the stories to pad out the comics. I felt that superman and lois due to them having 15 episode seasons and they didn't have an insane budget either. They were limited to having to pad out the runtime with drama

@@vincentluong7550 then how would you compare Smallville probably the 1nd most notable tv live action Superman title. That was a 20 to 24 eps showing then budget couldn't be as high as S&L

This. It's such a weird rumor that gets passed around without any evidence. HBO is just a secondary distributor. Berlanti just negotiated with the CW for a larger budget and shorter seasons (so they could spend more time on it) because it's Superman and would bring prestige to the network and possibly allow them to charge more for ad slots. They've lowered the budget for the final season, sadly (which is why the regular cast is shrinking), but hopefully they can make do. I trust the writers at this point.

@@Swenglishwow didn’t know that

Henry is aware of this but Snyder instructed him not to smile too much, to keep with Snyder's dour and sour vision of the character

We’re getting a season 4 but it’ll be the last season.

​@TheRealHerbaSchmurba I don't mind tbh, it was gonna end at season 4-5 anyway and if they stretch it out farther it's more likely it'll get worse

@@TheRealHerbaSchmurba and for a bullshit reason, too. I wish the characters from most of the DCTV shows came back for another multiverse crossover since many of these shows didn't get a proper ending and have it end with most of those shows retconned in the same universe just like the Crisis did with the CW DC shows at the time!

And also a lot of the actors won't be returning. ​@@kadegetslaid634

Based on what? Just asking

​@@PLUTOXGOAT he is talking about the 1978 superman movie . It is considered one of the all time great superhero movies.

@@songohan5866 no he's talking about the Gunn superman, which isn't out yet. He said it has the potential to be the best superman since 1978, and I'm just wondering based on what

@@PLUTOXGOAT Based on Gunn’s love for the comics

@@thevilereviews7812 i seriously hope you are right 🙌

Unpopular opinion: Sam Lane's season 2 finale speech on was the worst moment of the entire show. The dialogue was forced and felt less like a Superman and Lois moment and more like a Warner Bros moment. Because they needed a way to confirm that the show was NEVER part of the Arrowverse. They could’ve just made all of the show’s changes part of the Earth Prime changes. Even if you hate the Arrowverse, leading the fans on with Diggle cameos and mentioning Oliver and the Crisis for two straight seasons was a dick move that disrespects the fans' intelligence. Which is exactly what Warner Bros does, especially with DC fans. And even at the time, I knew the retcon was gonna be pointless. Which proved me right because after the following season, it was announced to be cancelled after the next season! Between the retcon and Legends of Tomorrow, the 3rd official Arrowverse show, getting cancelled on a fucking cliffhanger, just so they wouldn't have to pay for the sets anymore, the last-ever official Arrowverse season was a bad final season of a once great show that cares more about simping for a badly written side character and less about giving the characters an exciting, definitive and respectful ending. The Arrowverse-scratch that-MOST DCTV shows in general deserved better management. And I can't think of a better way to give them an epic ending than by making another multiverse crossover! With better writing, VFX, etc! And then have it end with most of the shows retconned in the same universe, something many of the fans of these shows have always wanted. They could always bring back this universe in whichever project the same way the DCAU returns in a different project once in a while. The fans of all these shows want it, most of the actors of these shows want it, some of the writers of these shows want it. However, I won't be surprised if the writers/producers of S&L don't want it.

@@AJ-xc4qe Based Truth, I Agree with everything you said, & a little trivia: Both Constantine City of Demons & Deathstroke Knights & Dragons were originally part of the Arrowverse, But Warner then stated that Constantine Was actually in the DCAMU but the writers said otherwise & now that show is in a limbo & depending on who do you ask, the show is either part of the Arrowverse or the DCAMU; & with Deathstroke, in the first draft of Knights & Dragons, the show was directly connected to Arrow s6 Finale, but later the project was re-written to be its own separate thing

​@@AJ-xc4qelol

You mean reignite fans love for Superman because that is the Superman we need now.

Ironic coming from the guy who like the ANTI-S*mitic Moon Knight 2022 Show, aparently disrespecting characters is Ok aslong if SPECIFICALLY you from all people don't care about the source material 🤢🤮

I agree. My favorite Superman iterations to re-watch are Lois and Clark and Fliesher's Superman cartoons and, of course, Smallville.

Definitely give it a watch, it’s really good and very different from the other CW shows

@@LuisMorales-ly1fn bet I will

As a Batman fan, yes. I want some of those things. But only for characters like Batman. Because I believe all superheroes walk two paths. Either they walk in the dark, cut from the cloth of Batman's cape. Or they stand in the light like Superman. So archetypal are those first two superheroes that I think they're the models for everything that comes after. A hero that follows Superman's example is never going to be like Batman. So Superman himself damn well better never be.

Episode 1 and 11 together form almost a perfect little origin for Superman. If you haven't watched the episodes in-between, some of the main plot in 11 isn't quite going to make sense. But if you like those ones enough, you'd probably enjoy just watching the whole season. But those two are definitely the best episodes, of probably the whole series.

To me, Brandon had the least personality. But maybe that was just his movie because I liked him as Superman in that crossover.
