So no one talking about the brave colonel. He stood his ground with faora in Smallville, and sacrificed himself here. Not to mention he talked back to her during their first meeting.
I actually felt bad for Zod. Seeing the planet he loved and was literally bred to protect as nothing more than a halo of space dirt must've hit him hard asf. The raw emotion Shannon was able to convey was unparalleled.
Here's a funny thing about the Phantom Zone: everyone that was sent there are still alive. The Colonel, the scientist, even Faora and the rest of Zod's forces are still alive. (Although the Colonel and Scientist are debatable considering they DID crash a plane so it is unlikely they survived the crash but best girl Faora definitely survived.) This means our favorite Snyder female Kryptonian can come back.

Well, it is an easy choice when he considered what was at stake if he allowed Zod to follow through with his plan. And what kind of connection does Clark even have with Krypton beyond the fact that he was born there? He was raised on Earth with a human family, making Earth his home, not Krypton. So, if Clark has to choose, he obviously chose the planet he called his home, and to hell with trying to rebuild a failed race like the Kryptonians.
It's so dumb. Now that Zod had the codex DNA, he could've left and terraformmed any other planet into a New Krypton, or stayed on Earth and enjoyed his superpowers without terraforming it at all. Choosing to try and terraform Earth - thus having to kill humanity, fight Superman and lose his powers - was the dumbest plan imaginable. There was no reason the rest of Krypton had to die here except that inexplicable choice by Snyder.

@@rohiths3554 I don’t think so, since she’s been on earth too. I think she might have struggled a lot with the question but eventually would choose humans
When Superman says that krypton had its chance, he wasn’t wrong. The Kryptonians destroyed themselves with their own arrogance and hubris and ignored people like Jor El and Dru Zod who, while their visions suffered, both realized that their planet was dying. Superman chose a race that still had a chance and was worthy of survival over an essentially dead race that blew their chances.
One of the best moments in this this film is Zod's honor for Jor El. Even though he killed him, even though he disagreed with him on many things, he respected Jor El greatly and understood him and Jor El wanted the same thing. They saw the coming calamity before anyone else.
Notice how all those guys in the military did their duty, stared death down without blinking. They had no chance of surviving but they kept firing and sacrificed themselves willingly
I mean, I bet she was just impressed for a second. Like "yeah, they're going to send us all to what is basically hell, but for this one moment... You win. Have your good death."
1:08 Just below the Kryptonian ship crashing down, Bruce Wayne is driving his SUV desperately reaching for the Wayne Financial building until other events occur ...
In my opinion, Shannon’s General Zod is absolutely phenomenal. He’s bred to be a general and to fight to protect his people. That is one theme of the movie. Freedom of choice. Zod does not have that freedom. He was bred to protect krypton and even if he has to kill an entire race to do that, he will. Zod is a unique and complex antagonist in Man of Steel, I believe he is the best iteration of the character yet. Zod wants nothing to do with having superpowers. He cares not to rule over the humans or flaunt his superiority over anyone. He just wants to bring Krypton back. He doesn't care about Earth or its people and he's not maniacal in his desire to destroy the human race. He doesn't seek to torture or maim anyone for his own self-gratification.... He just wants to get rid of them to make way for a New Krypton. Even though Zod is genetically bred to behave a certain way, his motivations are extremely relatable nonetheless in terms of longing for home and the comforts of sameness - Zod isn't trying to shake things up by rebuilding Krypton on a lush planet where he could literally reign as a god among insects... He wants his home back. He wants to be normal. He couldn't care less about having superpowers or reveling in being a godlike being. He seeks normalcy - and that makes him far more 3-dimensional than any other interpretation of Zod to date. It's very much the same as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz; Oz may be a great place to visit with a million exciting novelties to enjoy, but there's no place like home - even if it's a bland black & white world.
I agree. I actually like Zod, tbh. Sure, you can argue about people being genetically engineered from their parents to form specific roles but outside of that, the guy just wants his home back He and Jor-El wanted the same thing, albeit in their own ways. I sympathized with Zod, tbh, an understandable antagonist.
I like Shannon as an actor a lot and agree this is the best Zod...but don't pretend he isn't emotional or crazy in this movie. His plan to destroy the human race is asanine when with their powers and ships they could easily terraform and colonize mars or venus with far less risk involved. Also don't say they had no risk in attacking earth...a maverick missile knocks Faora out in the battle in small vile, we see in the next movie that a nuke KOs Supes...the human race is NOT defenseless against them. Condsidering Zod has just a a dozen or so Kryptonians left at his disposal and 2 ships to terraform the planet it was ridiculously risky to invade a nuclear civilization. If the humans didn't have Jor-El tell them how to activate the phantom zone drive and send the kryptonians away then we would have just nukes the the whole area once it became clear that Metropolis was totally gone, or nukes the one in the indian ocean since it wasn't near a city...then Zod's plan is done. Also the cloning ship went down from just Supes lasering it a bit, again a nuke or even smaller arms could take it down. Yes the Kryptonians could defend against a lot of that, but we have thousands of nukes, and millions of air to air missiles...and it would only take one to end Zod's whole plan of recreating Krypton. All of that on top of the fact that they instantly made an enemy of Kal-El, an extremely powerful being who had within him the very thing they needed, so why risk it? Why not just go "Hey Kal-el, we need your DNA and we are going to go colonize Mars. Kal-El would have helped him and they would have had zero risk (well unless the martians from the comics are there, then maybe just colonize venus). So why do what he did? Revenge. Jor-El broke him in the beginning of the movie, Zod was unhinged. He didn't just want to bring back Krypton, he wanted to destroy everything Jor-El cared about. He wanted to unmake Jor-El's plans. Killing Kal-El and destroying the humans was the way to do this. So no Zod was not acting altruistically from his perspective for his people, he was an unhinged maniac who was even violating his own military programming to take unnecesary risks with his limited resources. Just because he makes some speech in the end about only caring about Krypton doesn't make it true. He wanted to hurt Kal-El and by extension Jor-El.
@@Jake-cm9jj But could they colonise Mars or Venus? Zod and his crew have already visited some old kryptonian colony with a world engine and the colony was so desolated they had to use space suits to survive. Which can imply that kryptonian terraforming had it's limitatiins and not every planet can be terraformed into Krypton-like. Ofcourse, you can say that that colony died because of some naturall disaster, but there is no reason to assume that they could just terraform any planet.
@@griva7018 They didn't have their powers then. In Earth's system they have superman's powers...this opens up a lot of possibilities. They can fly over to a comet or the asteroid belt and push ice and other asteroids with natural resources into mars before they try to terraform it. They could go to venus and create tornados and siphon off all the extra methane and cool the planet, they could terraform WITHOUT the world engine, it is just the icing on the cake. A whole team of supermans could spin mars back up to a faster rotation and liqify the core to strength its magnetic field to make it like earth. So many possibilities with those powers. What we see in the movie is a normal air to ground missile knocks Feora out in the smallville battle (though she probably wasn't as powerful as Supes was yet. Not enough sun exposure yet). We see a nuke knock out Supes. They aren't immune to our tech, and we have ALOT of missiles and nukes. Yeah the earth wouldn't be very good for us after an open warfare, and they would probably win in the end, but we would kill some of them, and definitely total their ships which can't get away from the nukes as easy as the individuals could...and if we destroyed the clone ship then their race is over...exactly what Zod didn't want....so knowing our capabilities it was pure stupidity to risk the future of the Kryptonian race on a frontal assault like he did. He was a bad tactician and terrible at resource management. Considering that they were a highly advanced race, it made no sense that their "greatest general genetically designed to do his job" was as bad at that job as Zod was...so clearly he was mentally unhinged, probably from the death of krypton, or Jor'el's betrayal or something, but either way he was crazed in his behavior and not acting rationally.
Yeah, even as someone who doesn't like MoS that much, Zod was amazing in this movie, definitely the best version of him, I also think the Idea that every being on Krypton is born to fill out a specific purpose and can't stray from that path is interesting.
@@captainsaint5842 It was long, but used every minute of that runtime for plot. For a proper viewing, you need to use the long version. But that one has the downside of absolutely needing a pause in the middle.
@Messages In a bottle This doomsday had no ingrained hatred all kryptonians. Zod's hate of Kal-El and a possibly general violent nature was the only thing driving it to fight.
SpySolid Liquid wtf? I never said racism. All I asked was why people always have to bring up the 'Americans' thing and not just appreciate something regardless of where it's from. Like wtf
This exactly why I prefer DC. Because they actually make you think about how these heroes and villains have repercussions in the real world. The film was a complete package and an epic journey from start to finish. I love the graphic novels used, the properly executed punchlines, and the background of the characters introduced. This movie did a great job showing the sheer power and destructive capabilities of Kryptonians under a yellow sun. Bro I am insanely in love with this cinematography and combat sequence. Notice how Faora didn't bash Clark's masculinity or invoke any "girl power" nonsense? And still, she came off as a powerful female character in the movie. That's good writing by Goyer, the Nolan brothers, and Zack Snyder. Also brilliant acting by Crowe, Shanon, and Cavil.
I know this is late....but did you see the yellow sun of Krypton in this so-called flawless film? Ha. Caught ya snoozing. Faora was still pretty hot, though.
Audrey Fields Well, the movie kind of makes it clear that only things that has passed through the Phantom Zone is affected by the pull of the Black Zero.
@@DivvayKhatri Well lot's of people make that "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex." reference, I always wonder if the same could be said if the roles were reversed. Woman of Steel, Man of Kleenex.
Yeah, there is a lot more to Zod than people think, he was just trying to save his race. A lot of people dont know this, but Earth was the only candidate for terraformation. 1: the World Engine modifies only gravity and atmosphere, it can't modify the orbit, procession or magnetosphere of a planet, so the World Engine can't change the solid core of mars or any other planet's core in the solar system. 2: No other planets are known to Zod/Kryptonians, why else spend 33 years with no planet? Zod's power source was finite and limited. Zod had limited jumps in the Black Zero, and only one chance using the World Engine. If they left Earth there is a chance they would die along with their race. 3: Even if viable planets exist, how to get the scout ship there? They need the scout ship to make Kryptonians (genisis chamber). It doesn't have a phantom drive and doesn't fit the black zero like the World Engine. 4: Without terraforming Earth there was no way for a Kryptonian civilization to work on Earth. Can you imagine Kryptonians with superpowers living with humans? A fight between two Kryptonians can wipe out a whole city. So it was either Earth or Krypton, couldn't be both. And Zod was the good guy on Krypton, he tried to take down the corrupt government that was destroying the planet. Thats why Zod was a hero (for Kryptonians). Kal-el was the hero of Earth, Zod was the hero of Krypton. I think MoS is highly underrated and misunderstood.
zod is a top tier villain, and i think its cause you can feel for what hes trying to do. he isnt killing just to kill, hes doing what he thinks will save his race
@@xza5687 Okay, but why did they need to change anything when Kryptonians seem to do so well with the yellow sun? That question wasn't explored in the story.
That's what made it so compelling Zod wasn't a generic villain he was trying just as hard as Clark to save his ppl which is really admirable and I'm sure any of us would do if our ppl were in jeopardy
Joseph Gold You would be VERY naive to think that governments of the Earth would consider co-existing with a bunch of demigod aliens who even one man is as strong as a nation's entire military. They would capture them, enslave them, and do experiments on them to harness their power. Humans are already guilty of what the Kryptonians haven't done yet, that's why they are so afraid of a stronger spiecies taking over them and die trying to defend their position on Earth.
coexisting is a childish naive thought. Just look at the migrants at europe what happens when two completely different cultures tries to "coexist". Fuck that if this movie was an analogy of what's happening in the real world im on zods side all day.
Villains Pub suggested that if they terraformed another planet they would have saved their people. Zod is a Genocidal Psychopath, nothing heroic about that.
3:14 god the music, the cuts... from still to action. With the epicness of Hans Zimmer and the fast cut and stylistic zooms of Zack Snyder, that little sequence was truly incredible.
@@HurricaneGaming509 Awful cliche story, heavily relies on cgi, spotty acting at times, tries to rely on childish humor, horrible villain, and do I even have to mention Pitbull doing Africa? The movie is enjoyable yes, but don't act like it is some great movie
At 0:48 just after Zod says "If you destroy this ship you destroy Krypton" Kal-El takes a moment to think before he says "Krypton had its chance". This is the embodiment of the fact that millions of thoughts just went through his mind in those couple of seconds including the history lessons that Jor-El gave him in the genisys chamber earlier and he had to take this decision by taking into account what chances of surviving did Krypton have before the foolish expansion plan was executed by kryptonians, along with what will happen to Earth if Krypton is rebuilt. I love those 2 seconds if introspection that Clark might or most certainly had before he destroyed the ship.
Orcs_Blood17 Lmao I guess someone bailed out. People don’t even have valid reasons anymore, they just jump on the bandwagon. I for one love MOS and agree that’s it’s an underrated masterpiece
@@orcs_blood1793 You mean besides the mediocre dialogue, the shitty digital zoom-effect in every action scene, Michael Shannon's uninspired Zod, Lois Lane being a 2 dimension character, the used-coffee filter color saturation, or any of the myriad of flaws that managed to turn this into more of a disappointment than Thor: Dark World? The things I can say positive about this film is that it seems like Henry Cavill is trying very hard to work with very bad writing and the effects are good sometimes.
Jesus! The CGI still looks awsome until now.The suits and practic department also are incredible for today standars.Glad to see this movie getting older like wine.
for the most part i do prefer the MCU but Man of Steel, Wonder Woman and Aquaman sit comfortably in the list of movies that i have really enjoyed and will repeat watch over the years. That said theres some MCU movies that i wont repeat watch as they arent on the same level
Say whatever you say but if Iron man not work then you never saw the dceu admit it or not man of Steel and aquaman are only movie are best bvs First haIf was very best but when they starting adding wonder and doomsday it get ruined I hope that zack synder make justice league awesome like man of steel
The problem with people saying that Man of Steel is a bad Superman movie is that they don't understand what would happen if beings like Superman and Zod came to Earth and fought it out. I mean you have two people that are stronger than Atomic nukes fighting it out in a city and you expect to zero casualties and for the city to be perfectly fine? Like guys use some common sense here if two beings as powerful as two Atomic nukes are fighting within a populated city there is going to be collateral damage and there is going to be destruction. And for all of you guys mad that Superman kills in the movie what you have to understand is that Zack Schneider wanted to humanizes these heroic characters and yes it does seem Superman does compromise by killing Zod in this movie but I think the message of the movie is do we let those moments in which we compromise define who we are or can we learn from them become better versions of our selves by learning from our mistakes. Thank you Zack Snyder for this masterpiece I couldn't be more grateful
The only ones I've ever heard say MOS sucks is the guys saying I'd dont care who says and people say MoS sucks the only person I've heard say that is you
Lmao if they think superman destroyed the city then they should read the comics and watch the cartoon and see for themselves how much destruction is caused by their brawls
The collateral damage is not the problem. It's the lack of character development. By this scene we still don't know Kal-El beyond his sad childhood memories and that he loves Lois; Clark had no personality. Just a British actor with a great physique. (The "maybe let the children die" Pa Kent scene didn't help, nor did the tornado scene.) Christopher Reeve's Superman had warmth, humor, and emotional depth, on display in the Lois interview scene.
@Poolish Boi What is he talking about? Fuck the Phantom Zone, this thread turned into the 4Chan Zone. Can't even enjoy a goddamned clip without having Breitbart zealots go on a diatribe about Jewish Globalists.
Still one of the best superhero movies ever released. So deep and a refreshing change in his character arc. But I was a fan of the realistic angle Zack Snyder was going for whereas many others weren't it seems.

@@issac2112 Technically, it's not. According to the source material "comic". it's not going to kill them but it kinda depends on how the director wants to adapt it
0:43 the amount of pain we saw on Zod's face is telling us how he actually cared about the race of krypton!!! Well he was born for this purpose and i think he is just doing his Job❤️
Definitely the emotional climax of the film. Kal reaches the same conclusion Jor-El did when he said that Zod was a ghost. And what an incredible job in this whole movie by Michael Shannon. Terrence Stamp’s Zod is a legendary villain, but he’s cartoonishly evil. Shannon’s Zod has depth and purpose. He genuinely regrets killing Jor-El, he just feels it was absolutely necessary to his mission. The close up on Shannon’s eyes as he says ‘you destroy Krypton,’ is fantastic as you can see to Zod - in spite of all he’s done - there is no greater horror than in sealing Krypton’s fate. He literally cannot conceive of something more rash and horrifying.
HandyMan101 The core of a hero is overcoming personal conflict, first and foremost. MOS is about that. The turmoil of destroying Krytpon’s legacy or the human race. In the event the whole of humanity is threaten, I’m certain nobody but psychopaths will be smiling. The difference between the Superman you speak of and this Superman is experience. The hero who smiles has already overcome his tragedies, this Superman has not. Furthermore, people are complex, and even more so are heroes. Having Superman being positive all the time and having no difficulties taking on foes makes a character bland and boring. You can’t relate or aspire to that idealism, because that ideal superhero is not like any human. MOS is great at conveying the darkness of being a superhero. This is the first time Clark ever encountered such a threat, and the fate of the world is on his shoulders. It would be unrealistic to expect him to be in the optimistic mood when he’s fighting multiple people comparable to him. When you make a hero something he is not, the character can’t evolve. See the problem?
@@yc_knight6370 - Krypton was doomed anyway. They literally didn't have a planet to stand on. Besides, there were other worlds in the universe to inhabit. There was no ACTUAL need to destroy Earth. Doing so was just lazy and convenient. You have to ability to traverse the cosmos, but hey, let's fuck up THIS planet with sentient beings on it. Sure, we're weak and feeble beings, but we're still sentient and need our planet for ourselves. They could've easily taken their Krypton reforming act somewhere else.
@@blackSUAAAVE Wasnt it said in the movie that they could only terraform a living planet and not a dead one? I think they even tried to stay on a dead planet but they only failed.
@@Athenabadassinthearena - I dunno. That's a good point. I'll have to watch it again, and keep and ear out for it. Offhand, I would imagine that if you could physically terraform a planet in a matter of days (a real terraforming mission would take decades...at least for us humans), I would surmise that you could inject or add whatever 'ingredients' that you'd need to do a proper job. Mars is a few ticks inside the sun's habitable zone. But because it's not as big and as strong as Earth, it can't do the things Earth does. It needs a magnetic core to hold an atmosphere like Earth, which would also allow water to stay in liquid form. Liquid water is the building block of life as we know it (i.e. plants, animals, humanoids like us). The Kryptonians have the ability to not only travel to other worlds, but walk freely on them via spacesuits, and don't seem to have the need to eat and drink as long as they are in the influence of a yellow sun. They could pump into the soil and atmosphere anything they needed to thrive in their way of life. If you can terraform a planet the way they were doing it, I'm pretty sure you could turn a planet's dead core into a magnetic one. They could make it bigger, but not so much that it affects Earth in any way. They have the technology to leave Earth completely alone, but for plot purposes, and general a-hole-ness, they'd rather kill 7 billion people and terraform a planet that's already functionally perfect instead. Even if they didn't lay a finger on Earth, they could still live on it without terraforming it. So the question begs, why terraform it at all? I guess circle back to the being a-holes part.
@@blackSUAAAVE Yes you are right. They were cruel..the sense of morality just wasn't in their DNA. Even I dont remember the movie exactly, thats why I asked.

"The Wilhelm scream is a stock sound effect of a man screaming that has been used in more than 360 movies and countless television series,[1] beginning in 1951 for the film Distant Drums.[2] The scream is often used when someone is shot, falls from a great height, or is thrown from an explosion, and is most commonly used in films and television. Most likely voiced by actor and singer Sheb Wooley, the sound is named after Private Wilhelm, a character in The Charge at Feather River, a 1953 Western in which the character gets shot in the thigh with an arrow.[3] This was its first use from the Warner Bros. stock sound library, although The Charge at Feather River is believed to have been the third movie to use the effect.[4] The effect gained new popularity (its use often becoming an in-joke) after it was used in the Star Wars series, the Indiana Jones series, Disney cartoons, and many other blockbuster films, as well as many television programs and video games. In Pixar's film Toy Story 3 in the opening , the scream is heard when Andy and his toys watch a film. It has also been referenced in multiple CinemaSins videos.[5]"
0:40 I really like this scene and lines. It's perfect . It's interesting in traditional chinese translation. "Krypton had its chance!" they translated to "氪星自己毀滅了自己!" which means "Krypton destroyed itself." They have different meaning between them but I love them both.
This was the most powerful scene for me in ‘Man of Steel’. Superman saying, “Krypton had its chance,” made me go, “Whoa”. The same could be said for humans who are destroying our own planet. 🌎
Why did they remove the vein detail from his heat vision in BVS and JL? That actually looked bad ass and more natural. One of my favorite effects from the movie.
Casanova Frankenstein thanks, that makes sense. I guessed I just liked the vascularity around the eyes because it sort of reminds me of panels I’ve seen in the comic. His eyes actually look that way when he’s angry or using an intense beam. Heat vision is still cool no matter what, but this effect was just a little bit cooler. ;)
Because they had the lack of talent these films had. Dont make up excuses for him. The effects were shit, superman deserved so much better! The heat vision in these films always give me goosebumbs. In JL i was so disappointed.
@@lillbinonei Faora crushes Wonder Woman. She was pretty on-par with Kal-El, and he absolutely obliterated Wonder Woman. A tough but clear victory for Faora.
There's something so awesome on seeing the army fighting bravely alongside superman. Really wanted to see them fighting with the justice league against darkseid
On the last Jusice League movie Zack was going to make, he was gonna show Superman leading humanity and the JL in the final battle against Darkside... it would have been the most epic thing i would've ever witnessed.
I think Faora liked the army guy, every time she sees him she kills the others in an instant but plays with him, I thought I might ship them but then he crashed it a ha! (cheesy grin)
Kryptonians have a tendency to respect brave warriors even though how weak they are compared to them. Think of it this way: Anyone can fight their equal, but who is bold enough to step forth to face someone superior than them? It takes balls of steel. And yes, it takes balls of steel to rip the pussy of steel. Pun intended. XD
In the comic, Faora treats all men (human and Kryptonian) as if they are inferior. She was often depicted exerting her control over men in particular if I recall. I think she likes that he puts up a fight, but he would have been nothing more than pet or a toy to her. Maybe Zod is the exception, so perhaps they would be a better match-Lol. The Kryptonian species would probably think we are primitive compared to them-they are genetically engineered to be perfect. Even Kal-El is “perfect”, being the product of two genetically engineered parents. That why she appears to be disgusted by him. She doesn’t understand why he would reduce himself in that manner.
I don’t understand why people criticised the amount of destruction Superman did to stop zod. Wtf did they expect when you see the world as paper and cardboard. Could he stop the skyscrapers from falling on people? Probably but what about the killer alien on his toes. Did he have to kill zod? No this a 90s cartoon where the bad guy with a near constant limitless source of energy gives up after his diabolical plan is foiled. This movie was better than recent DCEU with the exception on Shazam.

-If you destroy this ship, you destroy Krypton.
-Krypton had its chance.
Not an easy choice. Good job Snyder.
Well, it is an easy choice when he considered what was at stake if he allowed Zod to follow through with his plan. And what kind of connection does Clark even have with Krypton beyond the fact that he was born there? He was raised on Earth with a human family, making Earth his home, not Krypton. So, if Clark has to choose, he obviously chose the planet he called his home, and to hell with trying to rebuild a failed race like the Kryptonians.
It's so dumb. Now that Zod had the codex DNA, he could've left and terraformmed any other planet into a New Krypton, or stayed on Earth and enjoyed his superpowers without terraforming it at all. Choosing to try and terraform Earth - thus having to kill humanity, fight Superman and lose his powers - was the dumbest plan imaginable. There was no reason the rest of Krypton had to die here except that inexplicable choice by Snyder.
Zod said that the foundation had to be built on something, a living planet so terraforming dead planets was useless
The moment in Man of Steel when Kal-El became Superman - by choosing Earth over Krypton
@@arnabbanerjee1284 a chemical foundation of life such as nucleic acid,prothein, carbohydrates and lipids. All fundamental components of living mater can be found in all animal on earth (human included), because codex is just Kryptonians dna code it can't build a living life forms. I suspected Kryptonians "recycling" their dead body, so they can "made" a new Kryptonians in the genesis chambers.🙄
I like how clark actually stops and contemplates it for a few seconds.
Had he socialized on Krypton for even just a couple of years, he probably would've leaned towards allowing the terraforming.

Always the bravest of us, but you could never make the hard decisions. Our race will survive
When Superman says that krypton had its chance, he wasn’t wrong. The Kryptonians destroyed themselves with their own arrogance and hubris and ignored people like Jor El and Dru Zod who, while their visions suffered, both realized that their planet was dying. Superman chose a race that still had a chance and was worthy of survival over an essentially dead race that blew their chances.
True

Feels like that's what I would do
Psych, humanity is dog shit.
One of the best moments in this this film is Zod's honor for Jor El. Even though he killed him, even though he disagreed with him on many things, he respected Jor El greatly and understood him and Jor El wanted the same thing. They saw the coming calamity before anyone else.

In my opinion, Shannon’s General Zod is absolutely phenomenal. He’s bred to be a general and to fight to protect his people. That is one theme of the movie. Freedom of choice. Zod does not have that freedom. He was bred to protect krypton and even if he has to kill an entire race to do that, he will.
Zod is a unique and complex antagonist in Man of Steel, I believe he is the best iteration of the character yet. Zod wants nothing to do with having superpowers. He cares not to rule over the humans or flaunt his superiority over anyone. He just wants to bring Krypton back. He doesn't care about Earth or its people and he's not maniacal in his desire to destroy the human race. He doesn't seek to torture or maim anyone for his own self-gratification.... He just wants to get rid of them to make way for a New Krypton.
Even though Zod is genetically bred to behave a certain way, his motivations are extremely relatable nonetheless in terms of longing for home and the comforts of sameness - Zod isn't trying to shake things up by rebuilding Krypton on a lush planet where he could literally reign as a god among insects... He wants his home back. He wants to be normal. He couldn't care less about having superpowers or reveling in being a godlike being. He seeks normalcy - and that makes him far more 3-dimensional than any other interpretation of Zod to date. It's very much the same as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz; Oz may be a great place to visit with a million exciting novelties to enjoy, but there's no place like home - even if it's a bland black & white world.
I agree.
I actually like Zod, tbh. Sure, you can argue about people being genetically engineered from their parents to form specific roles but outside of that, the guy just wants his home back
He and Jor-El wanted the same thing, albeit in their own ways. I sympathized with Zod, tbh, an understandable antagonist.
I like Shannon as an actor a lot and agree this is the best Zod...but don't pretend he isn't emotional or crazy in this movie. His plan to destroy the human race is asanine when with their powers and ships they could easily terraform and colonize mars or venus with far less risk involved. Also don't say they had no risk in attacking earth...a maverick missile knocks Faora out in the battle in small vile, we see in the next movie that a nuke KOs Supes...the human race is NOT defenseless against them. Condsidering Zod has just a a dozen or so Kryptonians left at his disposal and 2 ships to terraform the planet it was ridiculously risky to invade a nuclear civilization. If the humans didn't have Jor-El tell them how to activate the phantom zone drive and send the kryptonians away then we would have just nukes the the whole area once it became clear that Metropolis was totally gone, or nukes the one in the indian ocean since it wasn't near a city...then Zod's plan is done. Also the cloning ship went down from just Supes lasering it a bit, again a nuke or even smaller arms could take it down. Yes the Kryptonians could defend against a lot of that, but we have thousands of nukes, and millions of air to air missiles...and it would only take one to end Zod's whole plan of recreating Krypton.
All of that on top of the fact that they instantly made an enemy of Kal-El, an extremely powerful being who had within him the very thing they needed, so why risk it? Why not just go "Hey Kal-el, we need your DNA and we are going to go colonize Mars. Kal-El would have helped him and they would have had zero risk (well unless the martians from the comics are there, then maybe just colonize venus). So why do what he did? Revenge. Jor-El broke him in the beginning of the movie, Zod was unhinged. He didn't just want to bring back Krypton, he wanted to destroy everything Jor-El cared about. He wanted to unmake Jor-El's plans. Killing Kal-El and destroying the humans was the way to do this.
So no Zod was not acting altruistically from his perspective for his people, he was an unhinged maniac who was even violating his own military programming to take unnecesary risks with his limited resources. Just because he makes some speech in the end about only caring about Krypton doesn't make it true. He wanted to hurt Kal-El and by extension Jor-El.
@@Jake-cm9jj
But could they colonise Mars or Venus?
Zod and his crew have already visited some old kryptonian colony with a world engine and the colony was so desolated they had to use space suits to survive. Which can imply that kryptonian terraforming had it's limitatiins and not every planet can be terraformed into Krypton-like.
Ofcourse, you can say that that colony died because of some naturall disaster, but there is no reason to assume that they could just terraform any planet.
@@griva7018 They didn't have their powers then. In Earth's system they have superman's powers...this opens up a lot of possibilities. They can fly over to a comet or the asteroid belt and push ice and other asteroids with natural resources into mars before they try to terraform it. They could go to venus and create tornados and siphon off all the extra methane and cool the planet, they could terraform WITHOUT the world engine, it is just the icing on the cake.
A whole team of supermans could spin mars back up to a faster rotation and liqify the core to strength its magnetic field to make it like earth. So many possibilities with those powers.
What we see in the movie is a normal air to ground missile knocks Feora out in the smallville battle (though she probably wasn't as powerful as Supes was yet. Not enough sun exposure yet). We see a nuke knock out Supes. They aren't immune to our tech, and we have ALOT of missiles and nukes. Yeah the earth wouldn't be very good for us after an open warfare, and they would probably win in the end, but we would kill some of them, and definitely total their ships which can't get away from the nukes as easy as the individuals could...and if we destroyed the clone ship then their race is over...exactly what Zod didn't want....so knowing our capabilities it was pure stupidity to risk the future of the Kryptonian race on a frontal assault like he did. He was a bad tactician and terrible at resource management.
Considering that they were a highly advanced race, it made no sense that their "greatest general genetically designed to do his job" was as bad at that job as Zod was...so clearly he was mentally unhinged, probably from the death of krypton, or Jor'el's betrayal or something, but either way he was crazed in his behavior and not acting rationally.
Yeah, even as someone who doesn't like MoS that much, Zod was amazing in this movie, definitely the best version of him, I also think the Idea that every being on Krypton is born to fill out a specific purpose and can't stray from that path is interesting.

This movie did a great job showing the sheer power and destructive capabilities of Kryptonians under a yellow sun. Bro I am insanely in love with this cinematography and combat sequence. Notice how Faora didn't bash Clark's masculinity or invoke any "girl power" nonsense? And still, she came off as a powerful female character in the movie. That's good writing by Goyer, the Nolan brothers, and Zack Snyder. Also brilliant acting by Crowe, Shanon, and Cavil.

I genuinely felt sorry for him
Yeah, there is a lot more to Zod than people think, he was just trying to save his race.
A lot of people dont know this, but Earth was the only candidate for terraformation.
1: the World Engine modifies only gravity and atmosphere, it can't modify the orbit, procession or magnetosphere of a planet, so the World Engine can't change the solid core of mars or any other planet's core in the solar system.
2: No other planets are known to Zod/Kryptonians, why else spend 33 years with no planet? Zod's power source was finite and limited. Zod had limited jumps in the Black Zero, and only one chance using the World Engine. If they left Earth there is a chance they would die along with their race.
3: Even if viable planets exist, how to get the scout ship there? They need the scout ship to make Kryptonians (genisis chamber). It doesn't have a phantom drive and doesn't fit the black zero like the World Engine.
4: Without terraforming Earth there was no way for a Kryptonian civilization to work on Earth. Can you imagine Kryptonians with superpowers living with humans? A fight between two Kryptonians can wipe out a whole city.
So it was either Earth or Krypton, couldn't be both.
And Zod was the good guy on Krypton, he tried to take down the corrupt government that was destroying the planet. Thats why Zod was a hero (for Kryptonians). Kal-el was the hero of Earth, Zod was the hero of Krypton.
I think MoS is highly underrated and misunderstood.

Joseph Gold You would be VERY naive to think that governments of the Earth would consider co-existing with a bunch of demigod aliens who even one man is as strong as a nation's entire military. They would capture them, enslave them, and do experiments on them to harness their power. Humans are already guilty of what the Kryptonians haven't done yet, that's why they are so afraid of a stronger spiecies taking over them and die trying to defend their position on Earth.
coexisting is a childish naive thought. Just look at the migrants at europe what happens when two completely different cultures tries to "coexist". Fuck that if this movie was an analogy of what's happening in the real world im on zods side all day.

At 0:48 just after Zod says "If you destroy this ship you destroy Krypton" Kal-El takes a moment to think before he says "Krypton had its chance". This is the embodiment of the fact that millions of thoughts just went through his mind in those couple of seconds including the history lessons that Jor-El gave him in the genisys chamber earlier and he had to take this decision by taking into account what chances of surviving did Krypton have before the foolish expansion plan was executed by kryptonians, along with what will happen to Earth if Krypton is rebuilt.

The problem with people saying that Man of Steel is a bad Superman movie is that they don't understand what would happen if beings like Superman and Zod came to Earth and fought it out. I mean you have two people that are stronger than Atomic nukes fighting it out in a city and you expect to zero casualties and for the city to be perfectly fine? Like guys use some common sense here if two beings as powerful as two Atomic nukes are fighting within a populated city there is going to be collateral damage and there is going to be destruction. And for all of you guys mad that Superman kills in the movie what you have to understand is that Zack Schneider wanted to humanizes these heroic characters and yes it does seem Superman does compromise by killing Zod in this movie but I think the message of the movie is do we let those moments in which we compromise define who we are or can we learn from them become better versions of our selves by learning from our mistakes.

0:43 the amount of pain we saw on Zod's face is telling us how he actually cared about the race of krypton!!! Well he was born for this purpose and i think he is just doing his Job❤️
Definitely the emotional climax of the film. Kal reaches the same conclusion Jor-El did when he said that Zod was a ghost. And what an incredible job in this whole movie by Michael Shannon. Terrence Stamp’s Zod is a legendary villain, but he’s cartoonishly evil. Shannon’s Zod has depth and purpose. He genuinely regrets killing Jor-El, he just feels it was absolutely necessary to his mission. The close up on Shannon’s eyes as he says ‘you destroy Krypton,’ is fantastic as you can see to Zod - in spite of all he’s done - there is no greater horror than in sealing Krypton’s fate. He literally cannot conceive of something more rash and horrifying.
Lost me with cartoonishly evil. Save that for Richard Donner’s Zod
Superman saved Lois for 80 years= endearing
Superman saved Lois in man of steel = criticized
@FURY that people is so dumb, they hate DC because of this Superman doesn't smile
@HandyMan101 it doesn't make sense to hate a character that doesn't smile. It's like saying you hate Aquaman because he doesn't smile.
HandyMan101 Superman smiles? All the fucking time? No. I can point to a lot of instances throughout history he did missions and stuff and didn’t smile
@HandyMan101 good point
HandyMan101
The core of a hero is overcoming personal conflict, first and foremost. MOS is about that. The turmoil of destroying Krytpon’s legacy or the human race.
In the event the whole of humanity is threaten, I’m certain nobody but psychopaths will be smiling. The difference between the Superman you speak of and this Superman is experience. The hero who smiles has already overcome his tragedies, this Superman has not.
Furthermore, people are complex, and even more so are heroes. Having Superman being positive all the time and having no difficulties taking on foes makes a character bland and boring. You can’t relate or aspire to that idealism, because that ideal superhero is not like any human.
MOS is great at conveying the darkness of being a superhero. This is the first time Clark ever encountered such a threat, and the fate of the world is on his shoulders. It would be unrealistic to expect him to be in the optimistic mood when he’s fighting multiple people comparable to him.
When you make a hero something he is not, the character can’t evolve. See the problem?
So Superman wiped out his own people. Damn. Please bring back Faora-Ul!
Bayindo Studios agree keep Faora alive
@@yc_knight6370 - Krypton was doomed anyway.
They literally didn't have a planet to stand on. Besides, there were other worlds in the universe to inhabit. There was no ACTUAL need to destroy Earth. Doing so was just lazy and convenient.
You have to ability to traverse the cosmos, but hey, let's fuck up THIS planet with sentient beings on it. Sure, we're weak and feeble beings, but we're still sentient and need our planet for ourselves. They could've easily taken their Krypton reforming act somewhere else.
@@blackSUAAAVE Wasnt it said in the movie that they could only terraform a living planet and not a dead one? I think they even tried to stay on a dead planet but they only failed.
@@Athenabadassinthearena - I dunno. That's a good point. I'll have to watch it again, and keep and ear out for it.
Offhand, I would imagine that if you could physically terraform a planet in a matter of days (a real terraforming mission would take decades...at least for us humans), I would surmise that you could inject or add whatever 'ingredients' that you'd need to do a proper job.
Mars is a few ticks inside the sun's habitable zone. But because it's not as big and as strong as Earth, it can't do the things Earth does. It needs a magnetic core to hold an atmosphere like Earth, which would also allow water to stay in liquid form. Liquid water is the building block of life as we know it (i.e. plants, animals, humanoids like us).
The Kryptonians have the ability to not only travel to other worlds, but walk freely on them via spacesuits, and don't seem to have the need to eat and drink as long as they are in the influence of a yellow sun.
They could pump into the soil and atmosphere anything they needed to thrive in their way of life. If you can terraform a planet the way they were doing it, I'm pretty sure you could turn a planet's dead core into a magnetic one. They could make it bigger, but not so much that it affects Earth in any way.
They have the technology to leave Earth completely alone, but for plot purposes, and general a-hole-ness, they'd rather kill 7 billion people and terraform a planet that's already functionally perfect instead.
Even if they didn't lay a finger on Earth, they could still live on it without terraforming it. So the question begs, why terraform it at all?
I guess circle back to the being a-holes part.
@@blackSUAAAVE Yes you are right. They were cruel..the sense of morality just wasn't in their DNA. Even I dont remember the movie exactly, thats why I asked.
That guy crashing the plane is such a badass. He doesn't have any super powers, yet he still does his job and stand up to the cryptonians as best he can. You can tell Faora-Ul develops a kind of respect for him even though she considers humans beneath her
I don't know why but that landing at 3:43 was so satisfying.
Lord Beerus sexually?
He means visually it was pleasant to look at
Lord Beerus agreed
I had replayed that like 3 times for the same reason before reading this
You talking about Superman’s landing, or the giant piece of rubble that came crashing down behind him?
If you ask me the beef between the kryptonian and the American soldier was deeper then superman and zod
One of the most underrated movies ever made.
Goorney Live action Superman films will always be underrated.
Does every fucking clip on every movie have someone calling it underrared
geddoe316 ikr hahaha especially for this movie.
Goorney FACTS
Superman movies may be underrated, but not for SPIDERMAN!!!! Wait, not only Spiderman movies, the fricking entire MARVEL FRANCHISE!!! MARVEL'S THE BEST! Props to DC though, I love Snyder but after Justice League, after Snyder got removed, everything changed from that point on. Damn I hope Snyder comes back to fix the DCEU. But for now, HELL YES TO MARVEL!

Seriously? A wilhelm scream in this masterpiece?
I know it pisses me off

A masterpeice? Seriously?

1:52 ah yes, the obligatory Wilhelm Scream😂
The last thing those poor Kryptonians heard was... "In the jungle you must wait, until the dice read five or eight."
I don't get that, could you explain?

From the kids movie Jumanji. Search for it.
Shit, how could I miss that?! XD
Its not funny if you have to explain it!!!
Well I got it.
Love the look of Clark’s eyes when he’s halfway through “deactivating” his laser eyes
2:24 Once again Dr. Glassman to the rescue!😂😂

Antje Traue was so good in this movie, I like her performance.
Just kills everything in her way.
The sexiest badass woman there is in the comics movies. Not even Black Widow is on her level.
Definitly her and proxima midnight best
yoooo.... :)
Black Widow is Infinite times better character than her
@@nutsfromberserk247 When it comes to good or evil, yes, Black Widow has better good traits than Faora. Rest, is simply subjective matter. So far, Black Widow only showcased her looks and her prowess on taking down regular people. Faora on the other hand...

Black widow is not only a more complex and better written character than faora but all the other dceu characters as well

"This guy again, ah here we go again"
Love it when you see the soldier run (after being respected by that Zod Woman soldier), you like... he's a chicken after all what a dissapointement!... Yet... he was buying time to crash the aircraft on the terraformer. Respect
1:53 the guy flys out the back of the aircraft and does the classic scream.
glad to see sound guys still holding true.
0:43 look how desperate and destroyed zod is at the thought of failing
Almost as if his species would be finished if he didn’t succeed
The emotion in his voice really sells how Zod is just trying to right by his people, and isn't purely an evil bad guy
Great acting
1:52 the famous Wilhelm scream
Szminsky isn't that from star wars?
"The Wilhelm scream is a stock sound effect of a man screaming that has been used in more than 360 movies and countless television series,[1] beginning in 1951 for the film Distant Drums.[2] The scream is often used when someone is shot, falls from a great height, or is thrown from an explosion, and is most commonly used in films and television.
Most likely voiced by actor and singer Sheb Wooley, the sound is named after Private Wilhelm, a character in The Charge at Feather River, a 1953 Western in which the character gets shot in the thigh with an arrow.[3] This was its first use from the Warner Bros. stock sound library, although The Charge at Feather River is believed to have been the third movie to use the effect.[4]
The effect gained new popularity (its use often becoming an in-joke) after it was used in the Star Wars series, the Indiana Jones series, Disney cartoons, and many other blockbuster films, as well as many television programs and video games. In Pixar's film Toy Story 3 in the opening , the scream is heard when Andy and his toys watch a film. It has also been referenced in multiple CinemaSins videos.[5]"
nope it started in the 20's I believe. look at lemino's top 10 movies vid
Always a classic
infamous at this point
0:40 I really like this scene and lines. It's perfect
.
It's interesting in traditional chinese translation.
"Krypton had its chance!" they translated to "氪星自己毀滅了自己!"
which means "Krypton destroyed itself."
They have
different meaning between them but I love them both.
This was the most powerful scene for me in ‘Man of Steel’. Superman saying, “Krypton had its chance,” made me go, “Whoa”. The same could be said for humans who are destroying our own planet. 🌎
The music in this entire movie was god level so freaking good.
0:32 Jesus, the Soundtrack!

No one talking about Superman saving Lane knowing he can drawn into the zone too.
Why did they remove the vein detail from his heat vision in BVS and JL? That actually looked bad ass and more natural. One of my favorite effects from the movie.
Casanova Frankenstein thanks, that makes sense. I guessed I just liked the vascularity around the eyes because it sort of reminds me of panels I’ve seen in the comic. His eyes actually look that way when he’s angry or using an intense beam. Heat vision is still cool no matter what, but this effect was just a little bit cooler. ;)
Maybe he mastered it
It was in BVS when he is with Lex
Actually, it's a good way to keep him from overusing the effect: by saying it hurts him to use it...
Because they had the lack of talent these films had. Dont make up excuses for him. The effects were shit, superman deserved so much better! The heat vision in these films always give me goosebumbs. In JL i was so disappointed.
Christopher Meloni is a very underrated actor. HE HAS RANGE! That boy can act!

@@lillbinonei Faora crushes Wonder Woman. She was pretty on-par with Kal-El, and he absolutely obliterated Wonder Woman. A tough but clear victory for Faora.
I like that they left that question unanswered. They made it back from the phantom zone before. I hope she finds a way back for MoS 2
From 0:31onwards... 😢 The Music, The Scene, The dialogues, The Action, The emotions... Just Goosebumps... Nothing else... 😊😊😊
General: Good death is it's own reward.
Fuora: then I am rewarded❤️
Next scene, they're making out.
Gosh. This scene is phenomenal. The critics are ridiculous for giving this film a low rating.
There's something so awesome on seeing the army fighting bravely alongside superman. Really wanted to see them fighting with the justice league against darkseid
On the last Jusice League movie Zack was going to make, he was gonna show Superman leading humanity and the JL in the final battle against Darkside... it would have been the most epic thing i would've ever witnessed.
I think Faora liked the army guy, every time she sees him she kills the others in an instant but plays with him, I thought I might ship them but then he crashed it a ha! (cheesy grin)
Al Stone she loves zod
Kryptonians have a tendency to respect brave warriors even though how weak they are compared to them. Think of it this way: Anyone can fight their equal, but who is bold enough to step forth to face someone superior than them? It takes balls of steel. And yes, it takes balls of steel to rip the pussy of steel. Pun intended. XD
In the comic, Faora treats all men (human and Kryptonian) as if they are inferior. She was often depicted exerting her control over men in particular if I recall. I think she likes that he puts up a fight, but he would have been nothing more than pet or a toy to her. Maybe Zod is the exception, so perhaps they would be a better match-Lol. The Kryptonian species would probably think we are primitive compared to them-they are genetically engineered to be perfect. Even Kal-El is “perfect”, being the product of two genetically engineered parents. That why she appears to be disgusted by him. She doesn’t understand why he would reduce himself in that manner.

I agree with you that colonel had no fear, it wouldn't have surprised me if she like him a little though.
The score, the action, the passion. This movie is so epic.
“Krypton had its chance” shit gives me chills everytime.
the amount of destruction is too big!
-50iq Critics
Clearly they never watched Superman 2.
I don’t understand why people criticised the amount of destruction Superman did to stop zod. Wtf did they expect when you see the world as paper and cardboard. Could he stop the skyscrapers from falling on people? Probably but what about the killer alien on his toes. Did he have to kill zod? No this a 90s cartoon where the bad guy with a near constant limitless source of energy gives up after his diabolical plan is foiled. This movie was better than recent DCEU with the exception on Shazam.
I was actually bored with shazam except for the final act
