    If that's not true the whole thing is just "bottom feeder" stereotype where blue collar guys are treated as parasites of the society.That would be yeesh!

    Also, it's same reason the whole superman is superman cause ma,pa,space ma and pa crap is shit.These guys make a tool out effing superman.

    It was pretty memorable for me..It just was goldenage superman vs artic giant kinda fight.
    I just don't think it was executed effectively, especially when they had him act more like a Supervillain.

    I dunno, Superman getting batted around while losing his powers and not really doing much just...didn't feel like an exciting Superman fight. Especially compared to, say, Superman vs Cyborg-Superman and he didn't even have his full powers there either, but the direction was much better in my opinion.

    Supervillains are "mwahaha!i kill .i conquer..i bad"..i saw none of that.The entire climax was focused on clark and people.Otherwise there was no need to for that.Like i said they could have done a superman vs artic giant-esque kaiju battle(that's another whole can of worms).They didn't.
    Superman getting knocked around isn't a problem for me.Him incompetent is.Here i saw no sign of incompetence.

    Btw,in the last post i meant "it wasn't goldenage superman vs artic giant kinda fight".my typo

    James Gunn confirms that DC Studios as of now is separated from WB, which means there won’t be any creative interference from the WB brass like there has been in the past. Making it similar to Marvel Studios, where Marvel is a separate entity from Disney:

    He is the co-CEO of DC Studios, the only guy above him is Zaslav, who happens to be CEO of Warner also after the merger.
    It's like DC Studios and Warner Studios are sisters companies now.

    The same can be said for Kevin Feige and Disney.

    It basically means he has full control and not going to have execs trying to change his movies.

    WB has a different set of execs who report to Zaslav. That WB films division has no input in the DC side of things like they originally did.

    I think that’s good news. I recall the issue of execs interfering with DC projects has had a long history.

    The director of the Green Lantern movie, Martin Campbell, said that executive interface made the production a nightmare and the movie was pretty much “directed by committee”.

    But at the end of the day Zaslav has the final say. And we know that his main focus is getting WBD out of massive debt. Which will definitely affect how much freedom he’ll give Gunn on the DC projects.

    That is GREAT news. See: the finished Justice League movie (Whedon version) for what the result of WB interference looks like.
    Also see: the zillion endings to Flash they've filmed (that we'll never see) because WB can't even decide what they're doing long enough to release a movie!
