  I think that my favorite line about Superman is that the fantasy isn&apos;t about a good man being powerful, it&apos;s about a powerful man being good.<br><br>Since Superman&apos;s powers are basically whatever he needs the best stories are more about reflecting his morals against the world.

  Everyone I&apos;ve seen watching laughs at the same parts, cries at the same parts, and they&apos;re shocked at the same parts.<br><br>Tells me this movie was done right.

  The Snyderverse was dark. &nbsp;This is more what Superman is supposed to be. Hope.

  The “darker” reputation you’ve heard of actually comes from the Snyderverse DC movies. This movie you just watched is the beginning of James Gunn’s DCU, which stays more true to Superman’s accurate, hopeful tone

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7ybvLecQSw&amp;t=1074">17:54</a> Fun Fact: James Gunn actually stated that he almost cut the scene of Superman saving a squirrel from the film. because the test screening audiences didn’t like it:<br><br><br><br>“We showed it to test audiences and some people did not like the squirrel. They’re like, ‘Why the heck is he saving a squirrel? Why is he taking time out, saving a squirrel?’ There was a cut where I cut it out and I’m like, ‘I really miss the squirrel. He’s gotta save the squirrel.’”

  Its not that DC is darker, its that the previous DC movies were darker.

  Man... People not familiar with the character thinking Superman stories have a darker tone really shows the damage Zack Snyder did to the Superman as a character.

  This movie is the best way to be introduced to Superman and his supporting cast

  What&apos;s so good about this movie is that it doesn&apos;t tell you his backstory that was already told hundreds of times in other medium. We know he is Clark Kent, We know he is an alien, We know he has powers, We know his nemesis is a bald guy so just get straight into action.

  I cannot stress enough how good Christopher Reeve is. &nbsp;Not just Superman, but many of his movies are well worth the time.
