WHAT MADE HENRY CAVILL SUPERMAN 

They both work perfectly for different generation's of Superman

I agree with you both.

He was cast. Im really sad to see henry go, he was the superman i grew up with but i cant wait to see what davids going to bring to the table

Yes!! The dceu needed to be retold not rebooted!

Sucks that Henry had to suffer twice for the same problem, him being perfectly casted as Superman and Geralt but the material was terrible

@@lloyd777 the dcu is gonna fail under gunn.

​@@RewindthetimesThe DCEU already fell under Snyder. Gunn can't do much worse than him. Have you watched Peacemaker. That show had NO business being as good as it was. I was shocked. I trust Gunn more than anyone else right now.

And that's the one thing that pisses me off about Superman fans that claim they understand Superman. They say man is still sucks yeah? You just said it was a good starting point that's exactly what it was. That's why it was called man of steel not Superman. He wasn't Superman in this movie until maybe the end and even then hes not really Superman. Until the end of his action nightmares Justice League what people are forgetting is we're witnessing the reverse of this Batman. And the rise of this Superman hes not Superman until the end of the next night is Justice League. That's when he has been oh I need to go do what i need to do and hes fucking frightened staffing with the whole time with. A smirk and like it's nothing hes literally become Superman and people claim they understand his character from the comics. Yet hate man of steel I understand some of the things of him destroying the truck. The trucker that put beer onest face and maybe how his dad died? You can be a little stupid bat the same time when they claim that Superman just destroyed. The? Fuck out. Of metropolis are you rude idiots? Not understanding the the damage from the soup and not alone is just too cryptonian. You're not thinking about what the world engine would have done. It would have been successful and it would have completely altered Earth. And then you're also not thinking about that even the scientific cryptonians if they were to go into our atmosphere without their visors and start absorbing yellow. Sunlight and breathe in our oxygen that they wouldn't just start develop in super powers like God and his 2 generals so not only would you have. Zod in his generals but also super scientists who can kill any human or military personnel because they are just as invincible as Superman maybe not as strong. Because hes been absorbed in all this yellow sun for 2 decades 2 and a 1/2 decades but you've got to. Understand at that point even if it's only 20 to 30 criptonians. That's enough power to level Earth 10 times more than a nuclear bomb like they can literally drill to the core of the Earth and blow us up just by. Flying and into it and they might die but there'd be other corporations left. You guys don't seem to understand the stakes that the new blood Superman had to deal with. If he didn't snap zod's neck refer to the end of the Flash. This is what would happen we would have lost. Marshall manhunter would have been a bitch and let us all die because let's face it. He can't fight cryptonians hand the hand he get his ass walyes. Yes I don't understand how people can say they love Superman and hate man and steal and not understand this is literally the superman's origin story. It's his beginning hes not at the daily planet yet is not even in metropolis. And hes not even in smallville anymore hes going through his journey pretty much. What smallville Clark can't went through except staying in smallville metropolis. He went through that save and people randomly work in different jobs figuring out who he was or what he wanted to be and if he was ever gonna. Reveal himself this was literally an origin for Superman and yet you guys don't understand that now I get after this film things were rushed badly versus. Superman should have had a individual Batman film and another man of steel films so we could fully appreciate cable in the Cape and suit as soups before killing. Them off because that's their biggest mistake they ever did was kill them off. I remember being legit. Intimately pissed off in the theater saying they were retards for bringing in doomsday this early. I mean two movies in is very very early

That's what he and Ben Affleck needed, a good script

Agreed

He fit the suit and carries himself so well. He deserved a legendary script

Damn Right

I love how people just like, say shit like that, and don't explain themselves. Usually because they can't and have no fucking clue what makes for a good script. Man of Steel reminded me so much of a DCAU movie in particular it's not even funny. For those who aren't aware, that's a very good thing. See, description. A valid one, at that. On and don't even start with the "Superman would never kill" bullshit. He can in the comics for the needs of the many. If you don't know that then you shouldn't be commenting on the character whatsoever, thanks.

Finally! For love of god finally!someone who sees what I see I was beginning to think I was the only one like people really out here calling best Superman like Christopher or the iron man of DCEU when iron man was in 11 movies

Oh someone else like me exists. Holy shit

I agree, like because of the scripts he was given he was barely Superman to begin with. Do I think he had the potential? Sure, I really enjoy him as an actor. But it's just potential, we never actually saw much of it onscreen. I'm not particularly mourning him being gone for that reason - he didn't actually show me much Superman thanks to everything about the Snyderverse. Potential is not the same thing as what we actually got.

I don’t understand the Superman thing. why do we have to wait for a character to shine as the character when Christopher reeves shined as Superman in his first movie. Tyler Hoechlin shined as Superman in his first episode as the character, cavil had 2 movies, it’s snyders fault that Superman was the way he was. he was never gonna become the Superman we all know and love because it was intentional to make him dark and edgy, people are more in love with the idea of what his Superman could have been instead of what his Superman actually was. snyders Superman was intended to be that way because WB wanted to get with the times there was no road to a hopeful Superman I guarantee he could have had 5 more movies and he still would have been dark and edgy

U clearly are clue less hater

Of course you don't, as you wouldn't genuinely know what makes for interesting writing, and cannot handle anything less than absolutely uninspired cookie cutter drivel. Just like so many others. Be proud.

Henry Cavill is an Amazing Superman. He brings a certain amount of emotional pull and gravitas to Clark Kent/Superman character.

The ladder I agree the former no that was MEEDED

His father told him not to. He held his hand out to stop him and shake his head. Telling him in a silent way to not save him. He didn't think the world was ready for Clark to show what he was. And didn't want his son to be targeted by the government. Not knowing what they might do to his wife and son.

Can't do much any collateral damage all superheros have it. Especially if the villain is on par or more powerful than the hero.

Well said.

Actually, the best Superman lore of recent times in comics, and the most well received, have been one shots and miniseries that deal with the fact that no, Superman does indeed have flaws. Which is great, because I'm sorry but a bastion of goodness flying brick is a fucking boring concept no matter which one you're talking about. That's probably why those characters tend to be considered relics by actual comics writers. Just saying I mean...

@@SidNightWalker Did you not pay attention to what I was saying at all? Of course Superman is a flawed character but he's flawed in a way that is actually not taken to the stupendous extreme. I'm sorry that there's something within you that makes you refuse to accept that there can actually be someone who really is a genuinely good person.

@@The_Phantasm just like in the movies, so why are you complaining? That's what the Snyder movies were very much based on is more recent additions to the comic book lore. Not that I'd figure people would get that, of course. He wasn't taken to anything extreme in any way. So...? Oh and for the record? Reality, is why a bastion of perfection character doesn't work for me. Most of the time, anyway. Superman TAS actually is another really good example of making Superman interesting, through his interactions with different villains and how he did show genuine intelligent depth. That's a style of writing Superman that does work well, I'll admit.

Superman is an alien,pretending to be-HUMAN.

Even Tyler’s Superman is better than cavill’s . Christopher Reeves is the best for sure

What a bunch of cockamamie biased nonsense. Superman is also known for being stoic, especially in the face of humans being stupid, which is what he had been dealing with the entire movie. He does not endlessly show a divine stream of love and compassion despite his situation. Utter bullshit. He screamed because he did something against every fiber of his being to save people that didn't love him, they hated him and treated him like crap. That's not a situation someone, anyone, is going to be all smiles about. Learn how to analyze a plot better.

@@SidNightWalkerSuperman literally pushed Zod toward Smallville and Metropolis for both fights. It is entirely reckless for Superman to intentionally put villains towards civilian populations. The movie tries to show how Clark has self control yet when he wears the Superman suit he has terrible self control.

@@petermj1098 as did Batman when he first started out. Nobody is perfect. Not even Superman. Which is, y'know, good writing, because perfect characters are flat characters. Apparently the general populace seems to prefer their characters flat instead of well rounded for some reason, but I don't. Regardless of what character you're talking about, hero, villain, whatever. It's not ancient Greece, and mythos has evolved since that time quite a bit. At least in anything genuinely intelligently written, anyway.

@@SidNightWalker I’m pretty sure the main thing a superhero is supposed to do is try to save people in danger. I don’t see that is something you can forget in writing a superhero let alone Superman. You hate Superman because he is friendly and not edgy like Batman. Superman gets angry and sad but he doesn’t let his emotions totally control him. Superman’s greatest ability is self control- not a Kryptonian ability. His self control was taught by humans the Kents. But this Superman is out of control.

@@petermj1098 uhhhhh, yeah okay. If that were remotely anywhere close to accurate, he would have never bothered stopping the Kryptonians in the first damn place man. Of course he cares about humans, if he didn't he would have let Zod conquer them all, hell he would have JOINED him because he's a fellow Kryptonian. Just because you mess up doesn't mean you don't care, especially if it's unintentional and under extreme circumstances, which people seem to forget was the situation Superman was in during the entire freaking movie. He was under extreme mental stress through the entire situation that even he couldn't handle. That's realistic. Which is good writing. Oh and I like Superman just fine when he has some layers to him, much like he did in Man of Steel in particular, that's the version of Superman that genuinely works. There are other ways to give him depth, such as in the DCAU where he has his old-school trait of being hyper intelligent, which explains his cool and calm demeanor, instead of it just being his upbringing or whatever rather trite explanation, and allows him to have genuine wit and tact when dealing even with someone like Mr Mxyzptlk, and win. In other words, he works just fine as a character when the writing gives him depth, as per what I mentioned previously. Batman had depth from day one because of his origins and situation. What can you say, Bob Kane was awesome.

Saying MoS is the best superman movie made is a disgrace but wtvr

I thought Man of Steel was-GREAT-and enjoyed the film very much.

He was a really good suoerman

@@SolaceWhore 👍

With some of the cast they had in place a well built world would have been pretty good. All wasted in haste

I prefer the Superman we got he more of a badass

@@deltaproductions313​​⁠ Superman is joyful and compassionate in the comics and is still 100x more badass then Cavil

@@solen5529than* and yeah reeves wasn’t that comic accurate

​@@runisathe "dark and edgy" strawman narrative is long dead, move on

Yes. I actually have a whole bunch planned

@@VI_V2 Henry Cavill is NOT Superman. His Superman didn't care about people, he threw Zod into active buildings. Zack Snyder was doing the Injustice storyline, which is the least Superman story ever. Christopher Reeves would never choose to save Lois Lane and doom the world.

Exactly.
