      Man of Steel was only OK because of the involvement of Nolan and Goyer. How do we know this for Sure? Snyder was left to his own devices and came out with BvS. Worst superhero movie of all time....which is why the studio didn't trust him with JL, which is another storytelling disaster in both versions to everyone except his cult following

    _Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel wasn’t just a movie-it was a modern epic, a goddamn Olympian triumph dressed in steel and cloaked in the weight of greatness. Anybody who can assemble a cast of this magnitude deserves to have their name etched into Hollywood’s halls of immortality. Diane Lane-the Diane Lane-as Martha Kent, brought a humanity so palpable that her every line radiated maternal strength and compassion. She didn’t play Ma Kent-she embodied her, turning what could have been a throwaway role into the very anchor of Superman’s earthbound heart. Then there’s Kevin Costner. The man is practically Americana incarnate, exuding quiet, sturdy wisdom as Jonathan Kent. He didn’t just tell Clark to be better; he made you believe he had to be-that there was no other option but to rise above the world and transcend humanity. And for God’s sake, Russell Crowe-Maximus Decimus Meridius, the man who made lions whimper-brought a nobility and gravitas to Jor-El that made him feel like Krypton’s dying soul given form. You don’t cast Russell Crowe; you summon him, and Snyder wielded him like a cinematic war hammer._
    _And Michael Shannon as Zod-dear God. The man delivered menace that sent chills up spines and sent small children crying to their parents. Shannon didn’t just act; he devoured every scene, spitting righteous fury with such precision you could feel the weight of every syllable. Zod wasn’t just a villain; he was a broken, vengeful warrior whose cause you almost-almost-understood. Amy Adams, radiant and fierce as Lois Lane, was no damsel. She was a modern heroine who met the god of Krypton on her own terms, her determination unyielding as steel itself. And Carla Gugino-a voice actor? Let me repeat: Carla Gugino, relegated to a robot voice, lent more elegance and importance to Kryptonian tech than most actors could give to flesh-and-blood roles. Even the machines under Snyder’s direction carried dignity. Ayelet Zurer as Lara Lor-Van didn’t have many moments, but she made them count. Her every expression was layered with heartache and pride, her final glance at her son carrying a galaxy’s worth of love._
    _And who could forget Lawrence Fishburne? Perry White, channeled through Morpheus himself, was a commanding presence, anchoring the chaos of Metropolis with an unspoken authority that screamed: “We are in good hands.” Every scene with Fishburne felt like a masterclass, his voice booming like a stabilizing force amid the rubble. Richard Schiff, Henry Lennix, Mackenzie Gray-all these actors came together like gears in a perfectly tuned machine, each performance measured, intentional, and contributing to a greater whole. They didn’t just show up for a paycheck-they were directed into greatness. Because only Zack Snyder could take AAA talent and make them not just shine but burn across the screen, delivering performances that crackled with dignity, ego, and cinematic potency._
    _So now, let’s turn to the travesty that WB is peddling under James Gunn’s so-called vision. I saw the trailer, and it made me gag on its hollow, saccharine tone. It looks like Superman through a Fisher-Price filter, a cookie-cutter attempt at “fun” and “heartwarming” storytelling for folks who think watching paint dry is thrilling. Who is this “Thuperboy” nonsense they’re pushing? Superman is not some soft-edged, peppy teenager waving at drones from the sky. This isn’t Smallville on a CW budget-it’s a man, a god, a mythic figure whose presence demands reverence. James Gunn’s Superman trailer looks so sanitized, I almost expected him to hand out popsicles and balloons while making sure not to scare the audience. It’s not Superman. It’s an embarrassment._
    _Meanwhile, kids today who’ve discovered Man of Steel know what the critics tried to bury-Snyder’s film is timeless. They see the power and ambition of Man of Steel and recognize it as the definitive Superman movie of the modern era. They didn’t need WB’s forced narrative or some weak-kneed critics trying to sell mediocrity as a gold standard. They watched it for what it is-a cinematic marvel. I still remember standing in line for weeks to see Man of Steel back when tickets meant waiting at the box office, not lazily clicking online. The lines wrapped around New York City blocks. You know why? Because people understood that they were about to witness something monumental. But no, WB didn’t have the patience or the foresight to understand what they had. Instead, they sabotaged their own masterpiece, whispering poison into critics’ ears because they couldn’t handle Snyder’s uncompromising vision._

    I didn’t see Man of Steel in theaters for the first time until BVS is starting to release. The people around me that I knew personally told me that it was a terrible movie. So I think I rented it first and after sitting through the entire movie, I thought to myself why does no one like this movie? People really hated this movie so much? Then came the discussions in debate afterwards. Some people have good criticisms of the movie. Others are absolutely ridiculous. At the end of the day, I love Man of Steel. I still feel the same thrill I had when I first watched it during superman‘s first flight, for example. It may very well be a cult classic film. Most insane criticism is not just that Sups killed Zoe it’s Sups committed genocide. Wow, those that say that weren’t paying attention. I can understand having someone rain in Zack as a director but the disaster of the DCU wasn’t his fault.

    Mickey, you bring up a lot of valid points, and I thoroughly enjoyed your commentary on Man of Steel.
    I agree that Zack Snyder has a distinctive style, with his use of slow motion and muted colors, much like how J.J. Abrams is known for his lens flares and “mystery box” storytelling. What I think happened is that Warner Bros. was trying to play catch-up with Marvel and its cinematic universe, which was making massive box office waves. In their rush to establish their own shared universe, they made some critical creative missteps.
    Personally, I place the blame for Man of Steel’s lack of resonance squarely on WB rather than DC. I can’t fault Snyder entirely for the film’s narrative issues, as David S. Goyer wrote the script. While Goyer has done excellent work in the past, there was something about Man of Steel that felt like it was missing a vital spark, though I can’t quite pinpoint what that was. Again, I believe WB’s executive meddling and mishandling of the DCEU set the stage for these shortcomings.
    It didn’t help that Snyder faced a personal tragedy, which understandably took him away from shaping the universe that was supposed to follow his vision. That marked the beginning of the real unraveling. Man of Steel established a tone, but it was quickly derailed when WB decided to rush Batman into the mix, sidelining Superman and skipping over the opportunity for a proper Man of Steel 2. What we got instead was Batman v Superman, where Henry Cavill’s Superman felt pushed to the background.
    Cavill was a fantastic-looking Superman-almost too handsome to play Clark Kent, honestly (lol). But I genuinely believe that if we had gotten a true Man of Steel 2, he would have delivered an incredible portrayal of Clark Kent that could have elevated the character further.
    That said, I grew up during the Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve era of Superman, so I still have a soft spot for that version of the character. While I appreciate Man of Steel for what it was, I’m curious to see how James Gunn’s upcoming take on Superman will turn out, especially with his promise to bring back the uplifting vibrancy of the Donner films. I’ll keep an open mind-and let’s be real, the CGI Krypto will probably steal the show!

    • @Quantum3695

      Great comment! I believe MOS was missing the colorful aspect and vulnerable and humorous personality of Reeve's Superman. I believe it's what made Reeves more likeable to audiences.

    There are people I follow that cover movies, that flip flop about reboots when it suits and contradict themselves. "It should look different for a reboot", to "it should look the same and not change anything from the originals". It's very tiring.
    What people miss, is the movie isn't really a "Superman" movie, as he only discovers he can be who earth needs in that moment.
    It's only at the end where it's the people that have given him that name, which he would adopt.

    Interesting to hear how someone perceived the film who grew up with it. For me it feels like yesterday, since I was 31 when I saw it. I have loved it right from the start and agree with just about everything you had to say. I don't understand why people are so ready to hate this movie. It was mind blowing at the time, and so many films have stolen action beats and ideas from it, including Marvel (literal shot for shot lifts in Wandavision when the two Visions fight). So obviously it was doing something right. Even Balck Adam tried to bring some of that teleporting hand to hand combat stuff that Faora was doing in the Smallville fight. I truly wish Snyder had just let Superman have one moment/movie in the sun before dragging him into Batman's shadowy muck. We needed to see Henry Cavill flying high, bathed in the sun and saving the people of Metropolis in a more personal way. Then I think the rest would have played a lot better.

    Man of Steel felt like a twilight zone episode, it had the same drama and philosophy of a twilight zone episode. The creepy past of Krypton landing on earth thousands of years ago, the aliens standing and watching earth as they want to take over the world. Henry Cavil looks like 1960s gentlemen and the whole thing felt grounded in the modern world and Superman was relatable because he wasn't perfect, he was in over his head which realistically if someone actually was in that situation with those powers they would struggle to effectively use them skillfully.

    All 3 Snyder DC films are underrated. BvS director’s cut is the true version of the movie imo, and Snyder’s cut of Justice League is far superior to Whedon’s. Really wish he got to finish his vision without all the studio interference.

    I don't know if it was ahead of its time, since Nolan wanted to give Superman his Dark Knight treatment, but I also believe that MoS was horribly underrated. It's one of my favorite CBMs.
    Agree with the Rebel Moon mess. Unhinged Snyder is a problem for Snyder. But I rather liked Army of the Dead.

    Finally saw someone appreciating how good MoS was as a superhero origin movie. The father’s death scene wasn’t completely useless. Sure, it might not have seemed necessary at first, but when you watch BvS, it makes sense.
    Jonathan Kent died because he didn’t want his son to save him. He believed the world wasn’t ready to witness his powers or see a man who could be the strongest on the planet. In BvS, Superman’s existence was questioned, many saw him as a threat to society, just as Jonathan feared might happen.

  • @sukablat5938
    @sukablat5938 7 дней назад +2

    I think Man of steel really shines in that it explores concepts (perhaps accidentally) that you just didnt get in superhero movies. Superman purests understandably dont love the movie, as it is actually far to human.
    I always thought Zod was an interesting character, and his motivations made sense, as did his actions, and once you remove some of the more comically evil scenes that are obviously just a way to let you know he is definately irredeemably evil the movie plays more as a struggle between a ruthless Nietzschean ideal and a more compassionate Christian ideal. Perhaps it wasnt intended but I always though superman killing Zod at the end (rather than some contrived death that superman wasnt resposible for, or just locking him in some magical prison) wasn't just hard for superman because he doesnt like killing, but because he is basically ending Krypton altogether for the sake of humanity.
    Also the superheros never killing is such a retarded concept, it's just as stupid as its inverse, the every superhero is corrupt concept. Having to devise these obviously contrived circumstances so that the villian dies without the hero having any blood on their hands is actually lame, and means the hero never actually has to make any hard choices. I remember watching the new Batman, where batman lets the penguin go because he cant kill him, then the penguine ends up killing dozens of people in the ensuing chase, blowing up petrol tankers etc, and just turning the movie off because it was so stupid.

    Man of a steel was made with the mindset of making a movie instead a comic book movie. It was in line with the likes of Constantine, Dark Knight trilogy, and Thomas Jane's Punisher. A nice balance between a movie and a comic book movie would be Del Toro's Hellboy and Blade 2.

    Firstly, I love your take on this film.
    I just recently rewatched the SM1&2 and i can see better the inspiration MoS took from the Donner films making it imo “almost” a masterpiece, however it was the 3rd act that didn’t stick the landing for me. The absolute disaster porn in the end took me out of the film,
    Hindsight being 20/20 of course knowing now that the Martian the Man Hunter, was in the film the whole time and didn’t assist during a world ending level threat *at least to my desire*, is a huge opportunity there for me.
    Understandably it’s not a justice league movie, however with that much destruction w/o other meta humans coming out to assist is imo a flaw in the script. I hoped for the first film you tone down the level of threat, not to a Superman Returns level , but to an attainable victory w/o so many people dying in a world “Superhero’s “ exist.
