1. They went with a completely wrong vision of Superman in “Man of Steel” and “Batman v Superman.” To a lesser extent, they did the same in “Superman Returns.” Too dark. Superman is by nature an optimistic, sunny character. Not to the point of absurdity, but beyond his powers is the fact that he’s a good person at heart. That was lost in all the recent movie misadventures. IMO, Superman should have more of a Captain America personality - perhaps more cautious, but no less innately good.
Yes, a friendof mine and fellow comic book fan made the same observation to me a while back - that Captain America’s presentation in the Marvel movies should have been used as a model for Superman/Clark.
You’re right!
