Someone interpreted one of my posts as being critical of The Witcher Netflix and I need you guys to know that I will NEVER criticise my stupid little fantasy show I love it with all my heart and it is the ONLY thing that brings me joy

...with subtitles. Whenever I can, I watch videos with subtitles, even if I can understand the audio. Is that weird? XD
(References, commentary, and fawning over Henry Cavill under the cut.)
I am wholeheartedly more of a DC brat than a Marvel stan, but both franchises, in and out of their live-action universes, have their high notes. (The Synder cut of Justice League better be worth it, god damn it, though I'm sure I'll tolerate it.) Movies and shows aside, there's so much from the comics I'd love to see in live-action, and one of them that's barely been on-screen at all - hello, Superman: Unbound and Krypton - is anything regarding Kandor, the latter's capital. Of course, I'm just size trash, but the juxtaposition of Superman's earthly upbringing vs the life he and later Kara (Supergirl, who I think had seen the shrinking/abduction occur before she was sent away) had to leave on Krypton is so good. I'm just saying if the DCEU continues from what it currently is, and I see that storyline on a big screen, then I will go to a theater for once, pass out in the said theater, go home after the movie, and in my house when I view it again later, I'll save the clip and make a gif/pic of it for a background somewhere. Until then, I've done what I've can to recreate a possible matchup of the tale here. Here's a summary in video and a synopsis of the comics where you can learn a bit more about Kandor and this scene. The 'subtitle' (and possibly unrelated) caption is from Brainiac in the video game Injustice 2, which is its own cool set of alternate universe comics that should be put to (movie) screen, too.

Superman, Brainiac, and related characters/themes © DC Comics. Seeing a massive [hopefully, Henry Cavill, still] Superman looking over or going into tiny, bottled Kandor and/or looking over a tiny, bottled Metropolis and talking to his then/future wife Lois [hopefully still played by Amy Adams] within it and saying they love each other before he saves the city like how it happens in the comics will KILL ME in all the best ways. ...I wonder how 'varied' the range of pics of Superman with Kandor is. Surely, no one else has gone where my mind is going, but I'm too 'prudish' (lol) to do anything about it.
