superhero movies need more women who are overtly frightening

The thing about Krypto in the new Superman movie is that he's a bad dog. He's a good boy, he's such a good boy, he's the goodest boy ever, but he's a bad dog.

He achieves this apparent paradox by being loyal and loving but also being smart enough to know how to be a good dog and simply declining the option. He could be a good boy and follow commands any time he wants, he just doesn't want to.

Good Boy by nature, Bad Dog by choice.

SUPERMAN SPOILERS

Some people are mad that Superman didn’t show up in that scene and that we got Guy instead, and I feel like they’re missing the point a little.

It’s true, Superman couldn’t get there himself, but he inspired someone else to help where he couldn’t. He inspired someone with the power to help to help. Superman is about hope and inspiring people to do good simply because it’s good, and that is what this scene is about. A good deed that sparked the action of another.

Also, yeah it’s Guy Gardner who shows up, and I know we like to shit on Guy but he’s genuinely a good lantern, that’s like his whole thing.

Edit: Here is the link to the Guy arriving at Jarhanpur for those who want to see it.

I like how Gunn kinda had actors who would have usually been cast as “ugly american” type characters play Ma and Pa Kent. Sends a good message, I think. That beauty is not goodness, that there’s more to that part of the world than “evil redneck” stereotypes.

“go hang a salami” backwards is “im a lasagna hog" and that pleases me

Mad props to James Gunn for giving Lois agency. She saves Superman! She figures out what’s happening with Lex. At no point in the movie does Clark have to save Lois. It’s so nice getting to watch a woman just be a brilliant badass. I also think this is the first time I’ve seen Lois interact with the Kents. When she tells Clark she loves him too it’s because she’s seen him as Superman hero of Metropolis and Clark Kent from Smallville.

Superman shouldn't be floating ominously above the people reaching out and begging for his help like an indifferent god. Superman should be personable, reassuring, someone who makes you feel safe, someone who does good because he genuinely cares, will rush in to help without a second thought, and still take the time to make sure you're okay before getting back to fighting a kaiju.
