Well this makes them look bloody stupid.

David S. Goyer penned Man of Steel's screenplay, and in a lengthy chat with The Hollywood Reporter, he revealed a baffling script note given to him by Warner Bros.
"One note I got was on Man of Steel, where the ending involves Superman utilizing the pod that he arrived in as a child in order to bring down General Zod’s ship," Goyer said. "The note we got from the studio said, 'You have to change that.' We asked why. They said, 'Because if Superman uses that pod and it’s destroyed while saving the city, how is he ever going to get back home to Krypton?' There was just this long pause and we said, 'Krypton blew up. You saw 30 minutes of it!'"
Yes, the studio had such a lack of understanding about Superman that they actually thought he needed a ship to travel back to Krypton with. Putting aside the fact that his planet being destroyed is a pivotal part of the comic books, these executives actually saw it blow up in Man of Steel, and still didn't get it.
