I agree the film is fucking great but here are some other problems with it.
> Jumping jarringly from killing Zod to the drone scene.> Not addressing the destruction at all.These 2 could have been solved with a montage of Clark saving people from the rubble after taking Zod out.
> Kiss I think was done out of a need for emotional comfort not romance or lack of care about the destruction around them but it was still badly placed.> Tornado scene was badly filmed, needed to be much faster paced, Clark needed to get the girl/Martha to safety at the exact same moment that Pa escaped the car. As it is it seems like Clark was standing around doing nothing.> Lois could have used more snark. (not to the point of bitchyness)>>105292709>>An entire squad get easily btfo by a scientist without traningNah just Zod and 2 others he shot in surprise.
>>105292756>unnecessary krypton openingThat was one of the most beautiful creative and well received parts of the fucking film.
>>105292768>the entire thing exists as us military wankIt really does not. The military is relentlessly blown the fuck out repeatedly and Clark the main character doesn't trust them and promises that he will never be under their control.
>>105295375>It manages to make Superman an unlikable dick. Why should people care about him?It really does not. His only faintly dickish moment is with the truck and that is a result of 33 years of refusing to punch down on bullies.
We care about him because he is sympathetic. He sacrificed having a social life and his father for the greater good. Because he is imperfect and can't do everything flawlessly.
>>105295762>Why do people think this is a good argument?Because "not muh" is not a valid film making flaw. Jaws was plenty different then the novel and still is loved. The 1950s The Thing completely changed the nature and abilities of the alien threat and is still considered good.
