(Also I was talking about TOS Star Trek where the whole ''Golden Cage'' thing was a common theme through out the first two seasons (maybe the third, I still haven't gotten to it), not 90's Star Trek with the genocides in the name of the Prime Directive)
I meant in a purely technical level. Meaning that at least Superman would have felt the concecuences of his actions in the next scene and it would have had an impact in the movie, Instead of the way Man of Steel did it that was '' *SCREAM OF EMOTIONAL PAIN*'' Next scene Yay! Happy Ending!!!!. But yeah, there is no way you can make that plot point work, it's a moral event horizon. But like I said, I don't think that Singer would have gone through with it. It was probably just a place holder put by one of the writers until the find a way to write themselves out of the Superboy corner they wrote themselves into, I think Snyder and Goyer would have totally gone for it though, and then be comically baffled as to why people didn't like it.
Well, he likely did read the comics, just not, you know, newer comics, (was Birthright out by then?). People in this forum frequently forget (and I'm sadistically happy to remind them) that the 80's happened 30 years ago, so he could have been really into Superman in the 1980s and still be out of touch with today's Superman.
And Personally I think he understands Superman a hell of a lot better than Goyer does. But then again that's hardly placing the bar that high.
