    These people don’t understand Superman on such a basic and fundamental level. SUPERMAN IS REALLY FUCKING NICE! THATS A HUGE PART OF HIM! HE SYMBOLIZES THE BEST OF HIMANITY BY BEING AN ALIEN THAT DOES AS ONE GUY WHAT WE SHOULD ALL BE DOING AS A TEAM!

    I do think James Gunn does get this and honestly, it’s not a bad fit for a director. It might be okay. Nothing will compare to the epic trilogy in my head. I’ve got a 20th century spanning full life story of superman that would probably be as long as the lord of the rings trilogy and cost 3 times as much, but dammit it would be fun and uplifting overall cause superman is supposed to be fun and uplifting.

      But then “Man of Steel” brought a bunch of Randroid “woe to the ubermensch for being too awesome, those resentful inferiors are afraid” bullshit to the character.
