Godzilla 2014 was a more helpful hero than Supes. He only appeared to deal with the MUTO menace. Godzilla didn't lure the MUTO's to San Francisco. That's why everyone cheered him at the end and would probably weep at his funeral.
 
I know it's not easy being Superman with the world the way it is today and everyone looking to you for help. But he's Superman! When Lois was held hostage by that guy in Aftica he could of stopped him so many other ways that smashing him through a wall. Heat vision, cold breath, wind breath, sonic boom, something. But no he smashes him through the wall. I hope he survived.
 
I know that, I donot agree with any of it which is why I said I was playing Devils advocate. My point of bringing up thor was to show how stupid it is to blame the hero for the actions of the villian.

I do think they could have shown Sups rebuilding the city...or at least helping, but they didn't. Instead we get Hopeman killing a human in Africa :slap

Nobody has done that to my knowledge. The issue people have with Hopeman is that from the perspective of humans who live on Earth he's a guy that would have served the planet much better by never having arrived at all. Supes is an okay guy in MOS and BvS (except for the couple scenes where he's a smug douche in MOS), but the people of Earth have suffered thousands upon thousands of deaths and destroyed families because of his mere existence, and that's not right. His presence should be a good thing. I was hoping that BvS would show him dealing with a threat that had nothing to do with him so people could finally say "okay it sucks that Zod's people followed him here but if he'd never come then this OTHER guy would have wiped us all out." But that didn't happen. Instead Doomsday was ANOTHER product of Clark's arrival. And now they've gone ahead and already established that Darkseid himself is yet one more extension of events that can all be traced back to...Clark coming to Earth. :slap Poor, poor humans.

He's kind of like Ashton Kutcher in The Butterfly Effect, where he finally realized that every alternate reality always ended horribly because of his own existence until he finally went all the way back and aborted himself in his mother's womb. At some point the only heroic thing Superman will be able to do is spin the universe back so that he can do something similar.

Don't forget X RAY vision. He could have seen him and Lois from the outside, and all he had to do was land behind him. :lol

Since when can a human go through a brick wall after getting hit by an abject going a thousand miles from 10 feet away? :lol He killed the guy. That's why he didn't put Lois through the wall to get her away from the terrorist.

You can say the same thing about thor, hulk and even ironman who created ultron that destroyed a whole country
 
I don't like these modern Superheroes just cleaning up their own mess. There's nothing heroic about it, imo. I know SuperReeve did the same thing in Superman 2, but it's getting old seeing these heroes just fixing the problems they somehow created.

Not good company to be in if you're Superman. Tony Stark was practically a villain himself in AoU. And any blood on Thor or Hulk's hands will be more than reconciled when they save the Earth from Thanos.
 
LOL. Superman doesn't kill the terrorist in BvS. Hopefully that will be made more clear with the Extended Cut and be clear when folks frame-by-frame it (Supes actually spins around and is the one who goes through the wall first). Though it happens so super-fast I'm not even sure how many frames it is. :lol

Not good company?? They are supposed to be marvel hero's right.. or are marvel hero's allowed to be like the suicide squad. You can't have different standards for different heroes.

Also why can't Supes hands be reconciled, but thors and hulks can? Supes already stopped Doomsday and I'm sure darksied is next. So your saying darksied comming to earth is superman's fault, but Thanos isn't the avengers fault

Why didn't he take Lois then?

Correct, and therein lies the rub. I loved BvS but for me Batman, WW, and Lex carry the film, I was disappointed that Darkseid was specifically linked to Superman's presence, yet again.

Lex used the kryptonian scout ship to contact darksied. That scout ship was not the ship superman came to earth in. How is that his fault.

That ship was parked in Metropolis by Zod who did come to Earth because of Superman. I don't want to think that it's lame that the people of Earth suffer because of Superman's existence so if you've got a decent explanation as to why that isn't the case I'm all ears but so far I haven't seen one.
