      I realize the way the wording of "for people who hate superman" can indeed separate us- and i promise it's not meant to be exclusionary like that. It's more just that I really think THE MOVIE hates superman, ergo, the belief the fans of the movie would too. But!

      I understand how that's reductive and apologize - So what I hope the rest of the article can at least approximate is that it's not so much hating superman, it's hating a certain kind of superman...

      Like I think Snyder likes his dark version of the character because of the way he relates to the character's power thru fear, etc. But again, I say why I think that's a reductive way of seeing that character and I really don't know what to say otherwise...

      I think there's a valid reason so many people react to the film this way. And going outside of that isn't so much a problem of entertaining difference of opinion, it's that it would feel ignoring those really pressing issues we see inside it.

      That's all well said (unsurprisingly). And believe me, it's a weird world to step into seeing as I'm on the other end of the spectrum.

      And I understand criticisms, and that the film may not be for everyone, but finding it "ugly" and "hateful" is odd to me. I ultimately see a Superman, in a cynical world, who finds a way to stay hopeful, which to me is the character.

      And to my point about the cynism, if Superman's ultimate power is hope and optimism (which I feel it is), then his ultimate enemy is cynicism. That's why I find BvS's approach fresh and thought-provoking. He has to defeat that cynicism to complete his arc.

      Does it make for a fun film? Certainly not, but I think it makes for a film that examines the core of the character more than any before it.

      And apologies for the sporadic nature of my thoughts. I don't really engage in these discussions any longer, for reasons previously mentioned, so I have to dust off the old talking points. 😄

      Last thing I'll say, but I think you comments brings us to the crucial crux of differentiation. Because I totally get how that is the intent on paper - but rather than feel like an earned defeating of cynicism, it feel sooooo begrudging in the way he combats it. I mean it when...

      I say it feels like he's bedgrudingly goin through the motions of his heroic acts - the movie makes it all feel so obligatory. I think that's the key difference, especially when you couple it with how snyder coooonstantly undoes that "hope" thing and wants to send him darker.

          I think that's all fair & an understandable difference of opinion. I just never feel the need to degrade nor negate someone's understanding or love of the character because of that difference, which brings us full circle. Thanks for the time! I'll look forward to the next piece.
