  • I get it, I’m a big fan of Superman the Animated Series and the whole Timm era too. But I’m more partial to a more human Superman, the new animated My Adventures with Superman and this new movie encapsulate that perfectly for me.

    Eh, I still think he was pretty damn impressive. I mean he literally lifted an entire Kaiju and a skyscraper and taking on the Planet Watch contingent like a hot knife through butter.

    But yeah, everyone has their favorite version of Supes, some people like Dean Cain, other like Tyler from Superman and Lois. Personally there’s something to like from every iteration for me, but I’m a HUGE Superman fan myself.



  • Eh, I wouldn’t say that. I’ve heard people say that Corenswet was underpowered but he was literally fighting a clone of himself, if anything he was even more powerful than Cavill’s version by having to fight himself and with Lex having created an algorithm to counteract Supes’ moves. Cavill fights a Kryptonian that hadn’t had the long term exposure to the Earth’s yellow sun like he’d had his entire life. I liked Corenswet’s quirky-ness and felt he embodied a more good natured and hopeful version of Clark. Don’t get me wrong, I still felt that Cavill was a good Superman, but that his potential was squandered by poor writing.

    Politics concerns everything, and everything under the sun has a political component. You can’t extract human relations from governance and political action.

    Political (n) Of or relating to views about social relationships that involve power or authority.

    One of many meanings, but the one most relevant to this post.

    Also: Exhausted with the same damn argument of “Why does everything have to be political, there doesn’t need to be politics in x,y,z thing!” Jesus, the root of the word politics is the Greek word ‘polis’ which meant anything having to do with the citizens, the people, so yes, it’s all goddamn political.

    Polis (n)

    1. City
    2. Community
