If it's part of the lore then what's the issue? I just don't think you like the character, which is fine, but I don't get why you try to ruin it for everyone else.

And Bizarro Superman can work if it's done well. It's a simple yet effective premise if it's handled right.

"But Snyder and WB will never tell any story well. They're dumb."

There you go. I saved you the trouble of replying.

I adore the real Superman. Not this cold, distant Pseudoman Snyder stuck us with. I wanted to have a cinematic Superman for my generation, and I still don't have one between Singer and Snyder. The Superman of my generation is the Bruce Timm's animated Superman, because its becoming increasingly clear that no one who actually makes movies knows how to do Superman well.

I like the new Superman approach enough to be interested for the future. I don't know if it was the right way to go, but I also think they've added a layer of complexity that wasn't there previously. It's an experiment that I can admire for ambition.

As for the Bruce Timm Justice League, I love it as well. Somehow he portrayed every character absolutely perfectly and he portrayed the team dynamic better than anything ever, other than maybe The Avengers in 2012.

The Donner movies are great. They are both classics. Yet if they were released today, they would flop hard. I wouldn't want it that way, but the audience is just different now. That's why WB decided to shake up Superman, for better or worse.
