There’s been an unsettling rumor floating around about Man of Steel. If true, it would mark a pretty major change to the Superman mythos, and one that we can’t at all agree with. Consider this your spoiler warning for something that might be.
Last chance before spoilers!
In a world where monsters attack at night, we see yet another world, post-apocalypse, where a handful of people struggle to survive.
Crime Scene Berlin-Nightlife Killer Review: This documentary series really drops the ball with its storytelling.
In a movie that largely sidesteps what the war is about, “Civil War” puts us in the point of view of journalists who make it clear there are no heroes in war, just dead bodies.
I've suspected this as well, but to be entirely honest, I don't think it's as bad as this article is making it out to be. It would be a major change (if true), but his uniqueness remains intact. He's set up to be a 'pure bred' (which we knew about) Kryptonian which is supposed to not happen, as they're all genetically engineered. This makes him different and allows him the ability to choose the life he wants for himself. This is who Superman is.
He still grows up on Earth, learning the value of life at the hands of his adopted parents, and for the most part, he's still struggling to figure out who he is, where he comes from, and his place in the universe (just as he's always done). Even if Krypton is still around and he has a chance to go back, he learns this as an adult, he still grew up the same way as before, which is what shapes the man he becomes.
I don't see this as a big deal, aside from being more true to the comics.
You'd have to have an IQ of 10 to believe this.
I don't know if it will necessarily change it for the worse. I still don't know how much I like of the trailer that was released. I just hope there's some fun in it and it doesn't take itself too seriously. The trailer just seems overly dramatic and too deep.
Lot of criticism lately for MoS. Pity.
Am I the only one confused and put off by the casting of Amy Adams as Lois? She's ten years older than Henry (Superman) and she looks it, she's just not what I see when I think of lois and no one has ever pictured her being like Amy in any publication of sorts..
She's just (her comes the dislikes) too old looking and not sexy enough.. :/
