I don't think Snyder has ever been in an actual tornado there is so much fear and things going on no one would notice Clark if he ran in grabbed his father and run away without being noticed
This movie was kinda terrible as a Superman Movie. Superman in the DCEU did not give a fuck about human lives and acts like a blank peice of wood. Hell Henry Cavill acts more Clark Kent than Superman.
The bus and tornado scene highlight flaws in this approach to superman. The bus scene turns him into an idiot, who would push a bus in front of witnesses. Not only that but the implication of a hero complex, doing it so he can be seen as a hero. The tornado scene, why didnt Pa kent trust Clark to rescue the dog? Would the father of a firfighter run into a burning building if his firefighter son was standing next to him because he didn't want to put his son in danger? This movie only has one redeeming scene, when Clark flies for the first time, and we get a glimpse of the real superman
@@simonfarrell5675 i wouldnt say clark pushing the bus makes him dumb or having a hero complex, i think it was the simplest decision. I just think that the response to him getting caught shouldn’t be getting told NOT to do it, but instead being told NOT to do it the easy way
I feel like this whole 36 minute video could've been shaved down to like less than 10, it wasn't very snappy, pace was really slow, the talking points felt unscripted with a lot of dead air. A video should go in beats, like a dance or a song, all to retain attention and interest, this one lost me after 8 minutes.
thank you for the criticism actually, i'll try to make it a little simpler in the future although i will say the original recording was an hour long and i really tried to cut it down without it being super jump cut focused. i think that next time i'll be a little more focused on the important parts instead of cramming like 3 videos into one (although it was very scripted btw i am just bad at following the scripts)
I enjoyed man of steel when it came out, I’m a comic reader been reading since the 80’s so I understand that’s not Superman. I personally view it as its own thing now and still like the aesthetics of the film. But I don’t like it enough to defend the point that “that’s an accurate depiction of Superman”because it’s not. Lol
@@thecourt9778 that’s awesome! I feel like if I saw it for the first time later in life than i did than I might like it too. It’s easier to criticize when you’re specifically trying over the course of like 5 viewings
@@oscilao5872 it’s far from the best adaptation of Superman because it’s not Superman lol I mean if you don’t think about what you’re watching is it a fun film it could be but if you’re going into the movie watching it as a Superman fan who knows what superman is all about you’ll be disappointed. Superman is not Homelander from the boys. Superman would be deeply saddened by all the destruction he caused, and all the countless people that died in metropolis. I enjoyed your essay review. Keep up the good work I subscribed.
For all it's flaws, I do stand by this single opinion. Of all the superman films we've ever gotten, none have depicted superman's 'alien-ness' as well as man of steel. That movie gave us the most fully realised krypton we've ever seen on the big screen. When the planet died in the opening minutes of the film, It truly felt like the loss of a world, an entire rich civilisation. Everything that has to do with krypton and kryptonians as an alien entity/civilisation is executed wonderfully. But because zach snider doesn't understand superman's humanity. Which is his most important aspect. And because he doesn't understand Clark Kent, who IS what makes superman superman. We were left with a broken symbol. And a film that just ended in the worst way, killing the character within his own debut
@@Sunnysunshower I think that the biggest problem is that Zack focused so much on the alien side. we don’t see a lot of it in other media because it isn’t important. krypton only exists to justify some of the supernatural elements of his stories, his humanity is what makes the story actually interesting. I hated Superman for a long time mainly because of this movie failing to understand that nobody actually cares about krypton, we see enough of it in the Donner films to help viewers understand that it existed and that is all anyone needs. also i think krypton looked ugly in Man of Steel so I didn’t even get that enjoyment out of it
Personally i don’t hate man of steel but also I don’t think all that good either. Dare I say that the movie is kinda boring and forgettable, like I get baffled when someone says it’s one of the top 10 superhero movies bc I genuinely don’t see how. I mean the movie has great cinematography, action, and the very best thing that came out of this movie was definitely the first flight scene, every thing else like the actual story itself is kinda mediocre, but overall it’s just ok 👌.
while the movie is meh, i only liked the action bits bc its the only superman action stuff we had got in a long time. they went full anime with it which was ok with me but its only like ten minutes of action.
@@krono5el that is true, honestly it’s some of the only decent superman action ever put to film imo. but i will say that it doesn’t feel like there is any character to the action. i reference this in the video but it feels like superman isn’t doing what he normally would. there are no actual stakes until the end and even then superman acts out of character
There are no cultist clown, just fans who actually know who superman is because we read the comics. That's why we like Zack, because he got superman right. You idiots know nothing about him and cry when he's accurately portrayed.

Man of Steel was a fantastic movie. I loved the message of it, the tone of it, the themes in it. It felt like Superman for the 21st century, which was needed. I grew up with the Chris Reeve movies which I love to death and rewatch every chance I get but Man of Steel reignited my passion for Superman again. I will forever love that movie. It's in my top 5 comic book movies of all time.
Man of Steel is bad for two reasons Superman has no personality and Jonathan Kent died by a tornado. This film is a terrible way to introduce Superman's character. It felt like Manchester Black made a Superman film. Superman: The Movie is superior to this film in every way possible. Christopher Reeve will always be the greatest Superman in the movies.

I think people did miss the point of the tornado scene. You can disagree but the point was, that Clark’s ENTIRE life would change the second the government knew about him. They’d monitor him, probably secretly find ways to take him out, maybe do things to his family….. Johnathan didn’t want any of that for Clark and while yes he shouldn’t have basically sacrificed himself, he did it in hopes that Clark could try to live a normal life. “Can’t we just pretend I’m your son?” “Ooohhh Clark, you ARE my son” he just wanted a normal life for him, he wanted Clark to not be alienated despite being an Alien
@@matthewwelles8422 My problem is that this is such a less well thought out and more poorly developed character for Jonathan Kent, John is scared of what will happen if Clarks secret got out because he is a dad, but he also believes that Clark SHOULD use his gifts to help people when possible.

The movie is Amazing, so stop complaining about it.
@@oscilao5872 Then don't round up "my thoughts of the movie" into just nostalgia. The movie is great and there are actual reasons and if you don't want your video to be considered biased, you acknowledge those reasons.
@@richardabia9735 i never said YOUR thought on the movie are nostalgia. I said much of the debate is based on nostalgic recollection. even in the video i said that’s fine if it’s just that you liked it as a kid and haven’t really cared much since, but claiming it is ACTUALLY a good Superman movie based purely off of THAT nostalgia, Upon further scrutiny, falls apart pretty fast when you know anything about superman as the actual character (who this movie WAS supposed to show, this was supposed to be THE depiction of Superman in movies)
My biggest problem problem with The scene where Klark kills Zod is that the movie acts like this is shocking like He would never Do this sort off thing, but like no througout the entire movie He acts like a huge asshole and his father brutal, He never ahs a moment where he has a vow to never kill, He doesn't even care about casualties. So yeah this version of superman killing Zod isn't even shocking.
yeah! i think it's possible to tell an interesting story where clark grows up more brutal and willing to kill, but this movie not only doesn't seem to be trying that, it also can't try that. this was supposed to be THE superman, you can't have a deconstructive superman without the baseline and Zack wanted both at once
Exactly, the movie acts like "Superman has no other choice" instead of Superman just pointing his head in a different direction or just flying away with him like he did throughtout the battle, like WTF was this scene??? 🤣🤣🤣
Was this filmed one year ago? June of 2013 would be 11 years ago, No?….lol Yea I think it missed many marks on the Superman Character, it was real slow, left you kinda confused. However it’s a excellent Cavil film. Henry is certainly, for me at least, the best Superman actor. He has the look, the demeanor, tone of voice. They nailed it picking him for the role. Course leave it to DC to ruin it. They have just tanked their biggest cash cows. Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman……I’m convinced DC just hates money lol.
Zack had some good ideas, but we needed to start off with the Superman we're used to, and then he could have gone darker/brooding-er. They wanted a new Dark Knight trilogy after the Batman films ended.People now think it was always intended to kickstart a DCU it's was NOT, originally it was intended to be 3 films in Nolan's Batman' style of realism. Nolan is a producer on it and worked with/suggested Zack on it.
No dumbass he didn't. Nothing about it was "dark or broody" you clowns need to come up with something new cause you've been proven wrong already. They didn't want a dark knight trilogy they wanted a superman movie so they made a superman movie. It was never intended to be 3 films, Zack had a whole universe planned out for the next 10 years and even had a way to end it planned out as well. We got the greatest superhero movies ever made thanks to Zack, regardless of the idiots who cried about it.
@@Auron1Roxas2 What drugs are you on?? Zack Snyder couldn't plan a cinematic universe if you held him at gun point. The DCEU was the most poorly planned, rushed and badly written cinematic universe ever made, bar non. Not to mention all of Zack Snyders DCEU films were not garbage. Man of Steal was an edgy mess with wooden characters with 0 chemistry, Batman v Superman was just unwatchable and his Justice league movie was only good becuase is corrected the mistakes of the Josstice League movie, which mind you wasn't very hard to do. All of the good DCEU movies were all from different directors. e.i: Wonder Woman (2017) Aqua man (The first one), The Suicide Squad (Jame Gunn) and Shazam.
*superman do good ting because he is innately good not because he Norman bates mommy boy* this is an assumed axiom that u r applying to previous takes on Superman it is not an *objective truth* that applies to older takes on the character
What are you, 5 years old? And also not needlessly killing people and showing emotion are human doesn't make Superman inherently good, they make him human.

Clown, Man of Steel is the best superman movie to date. Zack treated superman as a character with actual character development. Idiots wanted the same boring shit and Zack gave us a masterpiece instead.
@@Auron1Roxas2 what character development. he doesn’t do anything for like an hour and a half and then kills someone. they could have had so many super easy hits when it comes to character arcs, have a scene where maybe clark says that like “journalism is a useless job” and Jonathan can be like “it let’s you protect people with knowledge.” or some shit, that way we can have john be not wanting clark to do heroism and risk his identity but still show respect for people who do want to protect people. It would also make the ending scene being one where Clark decides to become a journalist randomly just because his girlfriend works there, make sense. it’s like 2 or 3 lines of dialogue that would add ANY character development to this movie, but it just doesn’t have any of that. the movie goes out of it’s way to not show us characters developing in a realistic, maturely written manner
@@Auron1Roxas2 No. Man of Steel is one of the worst Superman movies to date that doesn't understand the basics of who Superman is and what he stands for. There are plenty of animated Superman movies that are far better than Man of Steel. Man of Steel was never a masterpiece.
Man of Steel is FAR from a masterpiece. I'm not even a Superman fan and I can tell when story and characters are sacrificed for spectacle. Writting Superman as an edgy superhero who kills Millions of poeple and shows no emotion for his actions is just childish, alot like Zacks movies now that I think about it. (Rebel Moon)

@@oscilao5872 Then don't round up "my thoughts of the movie" into just nostalgia. The movie is great and there are actual reasons and if you don't want your video to be considered biased, you acknowledge those reasons.
@@richardabia9735 i never said YOUR thought on the movie are nostalgia. I said much of the debate is based on nostalgic recollection. even in the video i said that’s fine if it’s just that you liked it as a kid and haven’t really cared much since, but claiming it is ACTUALLY a good Superman movie based purely off of THAT nostalgia, Upon further scrutiny, falls apart pretty fast when you know anything about superman as the actual character (who this movie WAS supposed to show, this was supposed to be THE depiction of Superman in movies)
My biggest problem problem with The scene where Klark kills Zod is that the movie acts like this is shocking like He would never Do this sort off thing, but like no througout the entire movie He acts like a huge asshole and his father brutal, He never ahs a moment where he has a vow to never kill, He doesn't even care about casualties. So yeah this version of superman killing Zod isn't even shocking.
yeah! i think it's possible to tell an interesting story where clark grows up more brutal and willing to kill, but this movie not only doesn't seem to be trying that, it also can't try that. this was supposed to be THE superman, you can't have a deconstructive superman without the baseline and Zack wanted both at once
He doesn't act like an a-hole at all though bar the tornado scene.
Exactly, the movie acts like "Superman has no other choice" instead of Superman just pointing his head in a different direction or just flying away with him like he did throughtout the battle, like WTF was this scene??? 🤣🤣🤣
@@kingtiger5040 Yeah kinda althought what He did to that guy's truck was kinda overkill NGL.

@@raghavpant6846 thank you @raghavpant6846 i hope you watched all the way through and didn’t tank my viewer retention
Was this filmed one year ago? June of 2013 would be 11 years ago, No?….lol
Yea I think it missed many marks on the Superman Character, it was real slow, left you kinda confused. However it’s a excellent Cavil film. Henry is certainly, for me at least, the best Superman actor. He has the look, the demeanor, tone of voice. They nailed it picking him for the role. Course leave it to DC to ruin it. They have just tanked their biggest cash cows. Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman……I’m convinced DC just hates money lol.
@@Silver_79 yeah i realized after filming, i thought it was 2013 until like halfway through editing and decided that it was close enough lmao
@@oscilao5872 right lol....I couldn't help myself.
Zack had some good ideas, but we needed to start off with the Superman we're used to, and then he could have gone darker/brooding-er. They wanted a new Dark Knight trilogy after the Batman films ended.People now think it was always intended to kickstart a DCU it's was NOT, originally it was intended to be 3 films in Nolan's Batman' style of realism. Nolan is a producer on it and worked with/suggested Zack on it.
No dumbass he didn't. Nothing about it was "dark or broody" you clowns need to come up with something new cause you've been proven wrong already. They didn't want a dark knight trilogy they wanted a superman movie so they made a superman movie. It was never intended to be 3 films, Zack had a whole universe planned out for the next 10 years and even had a way to end it planned out as well. We got the greatest superhero movies ever made thanks to Zack, regardless of the idiots who cried about it.
@@Auron1Roxas2 What drugs are you on?? Zack Snyder couldn't plan a cinematic universe if you held him at gun point. The DCEU was the most poorly planned, rushed and badly written cinematic universe ever made, bar non. Not to mention all of Zack Snyders DCEU films were not garbage.
Man of Steal was an edgy mess with wooden characters with 0 chemistry, Batman v Superman was just unwatchable and his Justice league movie was only good becuase is corrected the mistakes of the Josstice League movie, which mind you wasn't very hard to do.
All of the good DCEU movies were all from different directors. e.i:
Wonder Woman (2017) Aqua man (The first one), The Suicide Squad (Jame Gunn) and Shazam.
*superman do good ting because he is innately good not because he Norman bates mommy boy* this is an assumed axiom that u r applying to previous takes on Superman it is not an *objective truth* that applies to older takes on the character
@@ethanjannes7587 when did I say anything about mommy boy. Also, he is not innately good, he was just raised to be good by his parents
What are you, 5 years old? And also not needlessly killing people and showing emotion are human doesn't make Superman inherently good, they make him human.
"mostly directed by Zack Snyder" Snyder didn't even do a third of that franchise
@@elin111 he had writing credits on a few of the movies that weren’t his. i meant director as in he was the lead vision of the movies
Yet you're here talking about it....bro PLEASE stop mentioning Snyder and his work when making a DC related content i know it gets you views and interactions but please i don't want that franchise killer in DC anymore specially his cult

MOS is better than every DC movie, and almost every Marvel Movie. The only two flicks on MOS level, are Winter Soldier and the original Avengers….
Respectfully, you don’t know what you’re talking about ……..
Goodnight!
MoS is definitely *NOT* better than every Marvel or DC movie. It's not better than Watchmen or Green Lantern, and it's not even better than X-Men Origins Wolverine or Iron Man 3.

I respect you and your opinion but I am also going to disagree with your take😅.
@@Jeremyduru14 that’s valid! thank you for watching and hearing me out, that’s all that matters

I LOVED Man of Steel,thought it was a-GREAT-movie too. And Superman is an-ALIEN-pretending to be human. I also enjoy how the Kryptonians are more military like ( more like soldiers ) and they have other planets under their control and not just Krypton.Zor-EL even defeats Zod in hand-to-hand combat.The best Superman film in my opinion-EVER.
@@user-be7tc2bd6e Superman isn’t pretending to be human, he was human first, he didn’t know he was an alien until so late into life
but i do think your thoughts and opinion are pretty valid here nonetheless
@@oscilao5872 As Clark Kent he's pretending to be human to fit in human society,other wise he'd tell them he's a Kryptonian.
@@oscilao5872 Thank you.
@@user-be7tc2bd6e Clark Kent is as much Superman as Superman, but Clark is just his way of being a person and living a full life. He doesn't tell people because he doesn't want to always be seen as superman because that's not really who he is, Superman is an exaggerated version of Clarks alien side as much as "Clark Kent" is an exagerated version of Clarks human side
Im pretty sure half of these MoS simpling is just ChatGPT bots at this point
@@ChaoticHaze i’m trying to believe that every comment is a real person
@@oscilao5872 see I view it different. Anyone who says something silly like MoS being better than the dark knight are actual bots, and you should stop talking to them whenever they say it.
@@ChaoticHaze idk I think that i'm pretty good at finding bots, but I think that there are also people who genuinely believe that which is fine and valid.i wouldn't be setting much of an example if I just ignored people who I thought were wrong y'know.
The problem with UA-camrs is they lie a lot for views. This video is full of lies and incorrect statement about a comic character and film which is too bad. Bro be honest in your videos, do research then post. Lying is wack. Base on your logic all Superman films are bad except Superman Returns? Your logic says so. So either your lying or have to do TONS of research. 23
@@gohanson27 am sorry brain so bad and no have do research. can you explain point by point with timestamp to each moment that are lie? me too dumb brrrrrr
@@oscilao5872 you do your research. For every statement you make about MOS put that same logic to the other films and see how that logic holds up. The dos and donts of the character. I did, and was pretty shocked with the results. That's why I was surprised by the claims in your video. I'm thinking like did you watch other films about Superman?
@@gohanson27that’s fucking cap and u know it bro, like literally the whole pa Kent death is million times better in the reeves movie cause guess what it shows that even tho u have all these powers and you’re the strongest sometimes u can’t save someone from death and he learns from that this movie tells Kent that yeah be afraid and conceal your powers because it’s bad like gtfo synder isn’t going to let u suck him off
@@gohanson27 i would really like for you to tell me which points don’t hold up, also bold of you to assume that this is the only superman film that i don’t like. Maybe I hate all the movies you don’t know
Clown, Man of Steel is the best superman movie to date. Zack treated superman as a character with actual character development. Idiots wanted the same boring shit and Zack gave us a masterpiece instead.
@@Auron1Roxas2 what character development. he doesn’t do anything for like an hour and a half and then kills someone. they could have had so many super easy hits when it comes to character arcs, have a scene where maybe clark says that like “journalism is a useless job” and Jonathan can be like “it let’s you protect people with knowledge.” or some shit, that way we can have john be not wanting clark to do heroism and risk his identity but still show respect for people who do want to protect people. It would also make the ending scene being one where Clark decides to become a journalist randomly just because his girlfriend works there, make sense.
it’s like 2 or 3 lines of dialogue that would add ANY character development to this movie, but it just doesn’t have any of that. the movie goes out of it’s way to not show us characters developing in a realistic, maturely written manner
@@Auron1Roxas2 No. Man of Steel is one of the worst Superman movies to date that doesn't understand the basics of who Superman is and what he stands for. There are plenty of animated Superman movies that are far better than Man of Steel. Man of Steel was never a masterpiece.
Man of Steel is FAR from a masterpiece. I'm not even a Superman fan and I can tell when story and characters are sacrificed for spectacle. Writting Superman as an edgy superhero who kills Millions of poeple and shows no emotion for his actions is just childish, alot like Zacks movies now that I think about it. (Rebel Moon)
