Man Of Steel Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed Point To Supergirl, Cyborg And MoreAs what writer David S. Goyer refers to as the "0 issue" of the DC cinematic universe, Man of Steel has a lot of work to do not only to re-establish the origin of Superman, but get viewers interested in an entirely new universe of superheroes to rival Marvel's The Avengers.

Why Man Of Steel's Michael Shannon Doesn't See General Zod As A VillainAny story can be drastically changed being looked at through the eyes of the antagonist.

How Man Of Steel Dooms Itself, And Maybe The Entire DC UniverseSummarizing Man of Steel, I’m reduced to this one honest assessment that, I believe, dooms Snyder’s movie and – possibly – the future of the D.C. cinematic universe: I didn’t enjoy this contemporary Superman movie.

How Man Of Steel Proves We Need More Villainous SidekicksMan of Steel, for all its hyper-modern style and darkness, makes for a fantastic throwback. While we were all focused on Michael Shannon's performance as the terrifying General Zod, little-known German actress Antje Traue stepped into the role of his sidekick Faora and lifted the entire movie by the scruff of its neck.

Can Man Of Steel Convert A Superman Skeptic?If there's anything close to a default beloved superhero for all of us, it's Superman. People who don't know a single thing about comic books recognize the "S" shield symbol, and everybody can tell you that Lex Luthor is a bad guy without necessarily even knowing why.
