If handled better, then Superman having to kill, and worse, kill his last "countryman" it could have led to some interesting stuff for the sequel. With this, the fallout was barely dealt with.
remember the capsules on the sentry ship? One crew member was dead inside the other capsule was open and empty.... Could there be another Kryptonian among us?
Someone did mention that the reaction moments after killing Zod was light hearted, which does feel like a missed opportunity to show some remorse for the loss of life. I think this is the kind of thing that directors forget these days - taking 60 seconds to show some human reaction and emotion. One of my favorite scenes in Star Wars is when Luke is yearning to live his own life and sulks off to watch the horizon as the twin suns are setting. No words, no crazy CGI - just that honest sense of heart ache that everyone in the audience can relate to. It's too bad that scenes like that have lost their place in the big budget action world.
Remember, it's a reboot... not really the Sup's we grew up with.
This is a horse<bleep> cop out excuse. This is not tied to the movies we saw when we were young, and I'm OK with that. BUT they are tied to decades of Superman lore since the movie is called Supe... oh wait...
I think I am more bothered that he was ABLE to do it rather than him doing it.
Also, which blockbuster genre film tidies things up with a "singularity"? Hint: it isn't Star Trek.
Well this will teach me for losing these boxes! Does any know which parts come with which figures?!
- I thought the panic attacks were a nice touch given that you have a relatively newb-hero coming out of an alien invasion. But they could/should have tied that into Tony's drinking to make him a truly flawed hero. You see signs of his drinking in earlier movies and he could have easily been drunk instead during all those panic attack scenes. Alchoholism is such a major theme in the comics that its hard for me to believe we've gone three movies without touching on this.
