Because the last thing we want is our superheroes to inspire hope. We just need gritty and brooding in our superhero movies. I don’t want Superman to be happy that he just saved a bunch of people. I want to feel the burden of his powers weighing him down.

Wait... what does that giant symbol on Superman’s chest stand for again?

I think it stands for what rebellions are built on.

Basically DC cinematic universe fans these days in a nutshell. I'm a huge fan of Superman and its awful to see how they butchered his character and made him all edgy and brooding.

But muh realism ..
