Hawk girl from the series was always fine. Same grunt but this was over years of the series.

Edit, I guess she makes the screaming eagle sound or something in the film

She pokes the kaiju in the eye with her morning star and gets stuck in it's eye lid. That's about all I remember of her besides the annoying screeching so to say she was underdeveloped and underused is an understatement.

Superman finally genuinely opens up to Lois and she responds by happily acting like a total cunt. Why does he love her again?

Why does supermans human father look and act like a retard as well as being a morbidly obese fat ass who would die from 5 minutes of hard work even though hes supposed to be a farmer?

This movie would have been vastly improved if it replaced every dumb krypto scene with either green lantern or mr fantastic, they where the only good parts of this movie. Superman himself was alright but he spends the entire movie getting his ass beat and shit on.

I agree that Krypto showing up, fixing the situation, then disappearing in the next shot is one of the weakest bits of this script, but you said it yourself - Guy and Terrific already have too many of the hero moments as is vs Superman in a movie with Superman in the title. Give Superman more hero shots!

It's ironic, nearly a decade after BvS, an arguable Superman movie hamstrung by it singlehandedly trying to launch a cinematic universe, by a director who would obviously prefer to be making a movie featuring another character (Batman)... we get another arguable Superman movie hamstrung by it singlehandedly trying to launch a cinematic universe, by a director who would obviously prefer to be making a movie featuring other characters (the Justice Gang).

it's kinda hard to judge considering the entire script was weak but yeah, less of superman getting cucked in his own film probably would of been better.

Another bit I really don't understand is the starting in the middle of the 2nd film, what the fuck is wrong with an origin story?

There is this generation... and they think that superman is just the greatest thing ever and he needs no introduction or anything and everyone knows everything there is to know about superman. They are called Boomers and this is just one of the multitude of things they are dead wrong about.

Superman got an origin story in 1978, I guess? idk, I, like everyone under the age of 62 and not yet collecting social security, never watched the fucking christopher reeves superman movies. Don't give a shit. That was nearly 50 fucking years ago. They were well before our time. As a character, he was relevant enough to get an honorable mention in pop culture, but no where near something like say, Star Wars. This will also blow your mind, I didn't watch those films until the 90s when I was a teenager. They were before my fucking time as well. They happened to be far more cultural relevant than Superman though, so there was interest enough to actually sit down and watch them, like 15-20 years after they originally released in the theater.

Also his comic books haven't been popular in 50 fucking years either. He isn't some oversaturated known property that needs no fucking introduction. Only retarded fucking boomers think that superman is a popular superhero. You really think 1 origin story 50 years ago is enough to make his story embedded in the zeitgeist of every generation? He's not Spider-man or batman who each get a fucking movie trilogy every 5 years to constantly refresh every generation of children about who they are and why they are cool. Besides a handful of superfans nobody knows or gives a shit about Superman.

I knew, from pop culture references, mostly from Family Guy, that he was from krypton and sent to earth as a baby. I think his planet blew up? i don't know. Again, nobody else under fucking 60 knows either.

The first time we ever got this guys origin story or it was relevant at all in pop culture was Zack Snyder's Man of Steel in 2013. Zack Snyder's vision is literally our only insight into superman's mythos or origin or what the character is supposed to be. So to go from a serious, grounded world with Russel Crow and Kevin Costner as fatherly influences to some 5 second clip of the hangover guy and some unknown fatass retard hillbilly, with fucking superbots and kaiju and pocket dimensions and super dog and all the other non-sense is completely fucking jarring.

Superman is the character most in need of an origin story, especially if you plan to deviate in anyway from the only origin story we've ever known, Zack Snyder's grimdark version. Another truth you boomers might not want to hear is, Man of Steel was an amazing origin story, the first half of that movie was incredible, better than anything else DC has produced since, including this gunn shit. it wasn't until after zod shows up and they start fist fighting through buildings that the movie fell off, and that was just zack being zack.

90% of the movie going audience only knows what Zack Snyder told them about superman, and this ain't it. This is just dog shit. He should of taken the opportunity to establish the world he was starting in the DCU instead of jumping in the deep end.

Also whoever thought this movie needed endless closeup in your face shots needs to never work in film again.
