Wouldn't pushing a bus full of kids when he was 12 be WAY more suspicious than saving one old man from a tornado? How did they get away with that one?
"Once is coincidence. Twice is conspiracy." Best to just leave them scratching their heads with the busload of kids, than to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that he's Freakazoid.
That's bullshit but I believe it. Thank for the reply anon
I have a B.S. in B.S.
>water slide that quick dries you when you're done
Why has no one else thought of that?
Holy frick, is this some sort of chinese punishment or some cult shit?!
is that a lake of fire at the end of the lgbtq slide?

Yes and that's why Jon said that he should've let the kids die.
>No my invincible son, you should have let that busload of children die an agonizing death by drowning to death at the bottom of the river despite easily being able to save them all. People will hate you for saving the children
Race of children?
800m relay
Thank you for that
It's not like Clark was being recorded anyway. Worst case scenario they could've just moved towns. This plot development just gets dumber the more you think about it.
STOP MY INEVITABLE INTERSECTION MULTIVERSE THE FLASHES
this scene makes 100% sense if you consider martha was a no-blowjobs wife.
Martha was martian Black person homosexual
sheriff root was right
it all makes sense. the tornado was pa kent's way out of getting raped by martian girlwiener every night
No, it makes 100% sense because it's Kevin Costner doing Kevin Costner things. If you were a kid in the 80's and 90's you know what i'm talking about.
Literally the only flaw in an otherwise 5 star movie.
What about the part where after he gets assaulted by the guys in the bar, he goes outside and impales a 2ton wrecker truck onto a telephone pole in the parking lot and nobody inside hears this.
It's a rural town and Clark created a soundproof barrier by completing his action so quickly that he could easily cancel any noise that might be carried into the diner by modulating his voice to an exact inversion of sounds waves created through crucifying a semi-trailer truck in a parking lot.
>2ton wrecker truck onto a telephone pole
It was a logging truck and he impaled it on the logs that were his load you speedwatcher.
Man of Steel was so damn pants-on-head moronic, and the joke DCEU failed before it even began
One of dumbest scenes in big budget movie
Superman runs a little bit slower than The Flash but fast enough nobody can see him. No, son, don’t save me
He could have just run at normal young guy speed, threw himself over his dad, and when they survived it would be "Tornado Miracle #3,567"
this
if you're too dumb to write and/or film the scene the way it makes sense, just delete that scene and put the note in a drawer for some other project
Goyer and Snyder are both morons
>Midwesterners just standing beneath an overpass, literally the worst place to just stand
>no one is appreciably being affected by wind, with an F7 Super-disintegrating tornado just a short trot away
>Pa just stands there serenely, almost unaffected, til it atomizes him.
>NOO I DIDN'T ACTUALLY MEAN IT SAVE ME YOU DUMB F-*ACK*
he is his real dad Jor-El from krypton living under a false identity
he faked his own death to test his son mental fortitude
You gotta love how his ghost shows up in the miserable sequel to talk more sociopathic shit, like he's the Patron Saint of buttholes or something.
then the tornado dissipated immediately, and he was standing in a perfect viewing distance
>beneath an overpass, literally the worst place to just stand
Why?
That anon doesnt not understand tornados. Given the limited time and lack of any other cover, the overpass would be the best option. Also, a tornado is hyper-local event, they can literally level one side of a street and leave the other untouched.
I literally live in tornado alley, a roadside ditch would be 100x better than an overpass.
Used to live in an area with a lot of tornadoes, we were taught in school that a ditch is safer than an overpass like
said
It's a short tunnel, it will literally focus the wind through the overpass. A guy DID survive with one, but by clinging up in the understructure of it, not just larking beneath it.

Why did Superman let his dad die? Is he stupid?
Because if he revealed his powers, "bad things would happen to his family". No lie.
what's that movie about that guy that gets hit by a laser from the Sun,something like that. He then develop very strange symptoms
He genuinely believed he was saving his sons life doing this.
Also the context is that immediately before, Clark had for the first time snapped “you’re not my real dad”!
It made Pa Kent want to prove he’s his real dad, and also traumatize him forever, by sacrificing his life for his sons
if you wouldn’t die for your son you are garbage
I feel bad my Father didn't get himself blown up to teach me life lessons.
if your father is a good man he would’ve done it if he thought the lesson would save your life
Yes, he would have stood over a bundle of short-fuse dynamite til it went off to illustrate how dangerous fireworks are to me, like a real father.
if he thought you were constantly tempted to stand over exploding dynamite then yea it’s completely appropriate
But Clark wasn't tempted to keep throwing himself into destructive weather patterns.
He was constantly tempted to ease human suffering. His Dad raised him preaching how he'd make this huge difference to humanity.
exposing himself to humanity was risking a death sentence
ofc people might want to kill an alien even if he’s jesus, the sequels showed exactly that happening. Pa Kent was completely right
If he grew up to be a Cop, or a Fireman, or frick..really just American, he was risking a Death Sentence. Every time you get on the highway with distracted zoomer female drivers you risk a death sentence.
Clark wanted to do Right, whatever the consequences. His father was a paranoid sociopath and a coward. Just like the classic comics.
>His father was a paranoid sociopath and a coward. Just like the classic comics.
This.
It was a dumb golden age reference.
Superman #1, Superman is a borderline sociopath.
He takes a left turn away from being Stardust in later comics.
>"you have to keep this a secret" is totally the same as "maybe you should let people die"
lol
>"See? Now you know the dangers of dynamite."
>"Good luck paying off that mortgage kiddo!"
this is the fricking stupidest argument on the website
I think this is my favourite Cinemaphile meme. Baratheonposting is up there but it got taken over by reddit
It was an elaborate tax evasion scheme. The tornado was paid off.
>the world is not yet ready for you my son
>you must reveal yourself by fighting an alien in the IHOP
They threatened his MARTHA, the one thing that really gets him motivated to take action.
And all of the Kryptonian battles were such stakeless affairs, no one gets even mildly injured or even dirty until the abrupt necksnappering at the end.
Reminder that Pa Kent was right.
Man, a hundred people with signs will fricking protest ANYTHING.
Absolutely anything. God forbid he should go through life as a pivotal public figure and someone should have a negative view of him.
People probably don't like him because he acts like a strange autist
Also, he's an illegal alien refugee, who stole from the government, attracting other hostile members of his species, who threatened to glass the planet if he didn't come out of hiding.
Despite the movie showing people not bothered at all by this development, they would naturally be a bit shook by it.
oh ya so what were those scenes where they treated him like god saviour
You could literally save the entire planet from being destroyed and 10,000 people on the internet would hate you for it.
That's basically the story of Fauci lol
flip flopping on masks 3 times, and pushing the lockdown at the wrong time sure did save everybody....
I listened to the announcements he and Dolan and the Surgeon General gave each time while driving to work, and it was NOT Fauci who had everyone confused as frick.
We will never escape this bingo.
Why couldn't Zod terraform FRICKING Mars!!???!!!!!!!!!
What's the point of this movie if it doesn't have the John Williams theme?
You get to see Clark and crew acting mopey for 2 hours
>Trailers offer Hope
>Actual movie delivers Mope.
Kevin saw the direction of the DC cinematic universe and said, "It's my time. I'm ready."
Joining the DCEU is some sort of cult career suicide move.
Clark could do superman stuff infront of a group and just say it never happened when people ask him about it.
Even if they filmed it he could just say it's cgi and not real
He is also more than fast enough to have saved his dad without anyone seeing. Even if someone thought they saw him doing something, he could just play it off...nah, wasnt me, Ive been standing here the whole time
Man of steel is based no true fan would disagree with me.
MoS is so underrated. I wish we got MoS 2
Reminder that the whole "we got to keep it a secret" point is made completely pointless in the sequel with the constant drop of hints that EVERYONE knew Clark Kent was Superman and they were all covering his ass.
He doesn't even wear a mask, not much of a secret tbh senpai
>Use super speed to save him
>Gaslight any witnesses as hallucinating thanks to the traumatic experience
Problem solved
There are people on this board right now who unironically believe that MoS isn't a shit movie.
>invincible
But he's not invincible and Clark was clearly emotionally vulnerable. Papa Kent knew the world couldn't handle the reality of Superman, and that his teenage son wouldn't survive if revealed when world governments and private agencies went after him. And he was right to sacrifice himself at the time that he did. Sad scene given the arguement Clark and Kent had just b4 the tornado hit.
Superman could fart the tornado away.
This.
>run at normal speed towards Pa kent and doggo
>grab both of them
>as you are heading back, unleash SuperBRAAAP against tornnady to keep it from catching up with you
>????
>profit
Or freeze it with his breath.
Or swoop in an grab his dad so fast that he'd be a blur to everyone so they couldn't identify him.
Snyder is a moron.
Realistically if you grab someone at that speed you'll turn them into tomato paste.
>Realistically
>Superman
Color drained filter = gritty & realistic. Get with the times old man.
a steel object moving at near the speed of light the size of a man realistically would explode with the force of the asteroid that created the gulf of mexico if it hit the ground, a human body would be turned into mist.
>freeze breath an megatornado
>it turns into a lethal snowstorm
>a giant icicle flies straight thru pa kent splitting him in half
>cavill screams in horror. reaches for his mom but ma kent is now an ice cube
>pedestrians turned into mush by a bilizzard of snow bullets
snyder made the right call
Snyder would have loved that too because the problem of having witnesses to him using his powers was solved in the edgiest way possible
Original Superman movie:
>Clark's dad dies of a sudden heart attack, teaching him even he has limitations and even with all his powers he can't save everyone.
Snyder movie:
>Clark could very easily save his father but doesn't to...hide his identity, proving his father was an idiot and died a meaningless death.
Frick you Zack Snyder.
>teaching him even he has limitations and even with all his powers he can't save everyone.
You didn't watch the movie.
That moment served as motivation for Superman to try harder the next time, which he did and then literally turned time backwards to save Lois Lane from CERTAIN death.
og superman
>Kent dies from heart atk proving that Clark's powers are ineffectual against genetic illnesses and hypertension proving something Clark should've already realized since he isn't a god
Snyder movie
>Kent dies trying to save his teenage son from a lifetime of torment and suspicion by sacrificing himself b4 Clark reveals his powers and proves to Clark, with or without powers, you can't save everyone.
You guys remember when Scoot McNeery had BTS photos leaked and y'all thought he was playing The Flash?
Stupid dummies.
I said he was "Metallo"
SnyderSirs...They are laughing at us AGAIN...
Not like this...
How does he know his son is invincible?
Did he read superman comic growing up too?
>You can't let the world know what you really are, Clark.
Why? No, seriously, why? What are the actual negative consequences of people knowing that Clark Kent is a powerful superbeing?
>He will never be able to live a normal life.
He isn't normal. He can never live a normal life regardless.
>The government or some other force might try to control him.
He is too powerful. He can't be controlled unless he wants to be.
>It would put the people he loves in danger.
He can protect them from anything.
Except Clark was an erratic, unpredictable teenager with godly powers and there was no telling how he would react if everyone knew that. He wanted Clark to reveal his powers on his own terms and when he was emotionally ready. It doesn’t matter that he’s invincible. This is true both at the tornado scene and especially the school bus scene. Imagine if you were twelve years old and suddenly everyone treated you like a God. That’s why he wanted him to become a symbol of hope and peace so that the people wouldn’t ostracise him or worse worship him. You are all morons.
>Except Clark was an erratic, unpredictable teenager with godly powers and there was no telling how he would react if everyone knew that
This is SW EU-level of mental gymnastics.
Five minutes before that scene he literally tells Pa Kent that he isn’t his dad in a fit of rage. The movie spells it out for you and you still couldn’t get it.
Snydergays will always remain the resident lolcows of Cinemaphile
