A one-dimensional "boy scout" "everyone loves him" "unrealistic", silver-age, goofy depiction of Superman.
You know that All Star Superman wasn’t a silver age comic, right? The struggle of characters like Superman and Captain America aren’t that they are grey, it’s that the world around them is grey and they have to stand up to make the right choice. Superman has always been this character, and I don’t understand how Snyder’s critically middling adaptation has changed anything about him.
Snyder's version of Superman is who I've always seen Superman as. People just never gave him a chance to finish is first character arc before poo-poo-ing him.
Because none of Snyder's characters have any character arcs lmao. If he couldn't get a character arc done in one solo film and one Justice League movie then maybe he's not a good writer. Even in both Rebel Moon films there is like one okay character at best, and that's like 6 hours of screentime.
Also Snyder hates the concept of Superman and Batman, idk why anybody even wanted him to make films of those guys. Give him somebody like the Punisher and let him go nuts.
Yeah idk why the Snyder fanbase think he cared about superman at all outside of just being powerful, if he was interested in developing that character at all he would have given him more than 60 lines of dialogue in BVS and ZSJL combined. I don’t think he had Clark and Diana share a single verbal exchange in the 2 movies they were both in. My god even Josstice League gave superman 40 something lines of dialogue and had him interact with members of the league than just Batman.
