[quote=@TimeMasterX] That would be fine if he was written as the Kansas kid with abilities. He isn't, he's written as Space Jesus. They spend the whole film saying: 'you're gonna do great things, you're the chosen one, you can SAVE THEM ALL'...and he doesn't. Not even remotely. It's a good job Metropolis is a big city, if it was the size of Smallville...oh wait, that got destroyed anyway... [/quote] Superman never destroys a building. Every building that is destroyed is because Zod or one of his lackeys threw him through it. Superman saved THE ENTIRE WORLD btw. People get killed in the comics all the time, read Justice League Origin in the new 52 and tell me there weren't casualties. That had the entire league. You mean to tell me nobody died in the Avengers movies? yeah right. [quote=@TimeMasterX] I can't watch BvS while I'm watching MoS. The way that Man of Steel ended, Superman trading quips with the military and turning up as Clark Kent in the Daily Planet (which is a career path we never saw him even consider in the movie btw), gives us the impression that the events that have occurred have all ended well enough for everyone who matters. Say it was a standalone movie, they'd have just sidestepped an utter calamity the likes of which we've never seen because they want a cutesy finish. I honestly think that if there hadn't been fuss kicked up about it, we wouldn't have a BvS focusing on the events of MoS the way it is. I don't need to see him mope, I just need to see Clark acknowledge that this wasn't ok and he will do better next time.[/quote] This was never a standalone movie. Hell there might have been a time skip after all that. The last thing we see before he breaks that drone is him crying over the dead body of Zod. [quote=@TimeMasterX] Also, just read this next bit :P Except they totally could, put Zod in one of his space suits that block out the Earth's atmosphere (because that's what gives Kryptonians powers now...nice spacewalk Clark) and put him in a straitjacket. There, problem solved! [/quote] Except those spacesuits sure didn't block their powers when they were blowing up Smallville did they? Nope, they were fully powered in those suits. Unless that straitjacket is made of Kryptonite (which isn't discovered until BvS) you're going to have a hard time holding him.
