I don't think BvS will literally suggest Superman was getting flack for saving cats
Yes and that point is dumb. That was my point.
Okay, what is it exactly do you think his point is?
That every action Superman takes has dangerous consequences
Which is dumb
If you want to take a look at how super fights are dangerous and costly then sure that's a fine take
But Superman should absolutely be 100% guilt free and unconflicted about doing things like saving victims of natural disasters or stopping a bank robbery or saving a cat out of a tree
Not every heroic action needs to have THE UNSEEN COST

he didn't even save his own father from a natural disaster, why should he bother saving anyone else from one.
Standoff is shaping up to be a rad crossover, and the whole AVENGERS ARE CONFLICTED WITH EACH OTHER thing seems to be mostly marketing as the real standoff appears to be
between the three Avengers teams, SHIELD and Zemo's army of pissed off, formerly brainwashed by SHIELD supervillains
Old Man Logan continues to be fantastic and is easily the best thing Lemire has done at Marvel yet. Super excited for his Moon Knight.
Black Widow was basically the cold open to the most brutal, awesome Bond movie I've never seen and I loved it to death. You can also really tell that Samnee is co-writing as that man knows how to make his art steal the show.
Oh and Uncanny Avengers continues to quietly be my favorite Avengers book. All 3 of them are great but Uncanny is just the perfect old school Avengers style adventures and I love it to death. It's also super inventive with the Marvel Universe.

I laugh at his interpretation because its consistent.
I can believe of the unseen cost because i can see this Superman save people without considering all the options and consequences.
Because the man who raised him was the poorest, most disappointing Pa Kent to have ever existed.
John Schneider sure didnt agree with him and his reasoning behind it is pretty sound if you tihnk about it:
“I love Kevin, and I love what Kevin does. But I didn’t care for one scene in there, where Jonathan was advising Clark to do something that was self-serving, it was tell a lie, I can’t remember exactly what it was. I think Jonathan Kent is the best dad perhaps ever depicted on television. And I don’t mean my work, I just mean the man I was fortunate enough to play. He was a great father, and I don’t think the one in Man of Steel was a great father. He had some flaws that don’t belong in a comic book. I really had wished that had been me.”

When we find him, he’s been dealing with the everyday world of being a superhero, but there’s a paradigm shift happening in that the unintended consequences of some of those rescues are starting to come into fruition.

The only one I'd call straight-up bad is Sucker Punch. Everything else I've seen spanned the range between "it's...fine" and "I liked it".
You should go back and watch that Watchmen movie

I thought it was fine at the time but I hated just about every minute of it when I watched it again last year, with the sole exception of that intro and the Manhattan stuff, which is just lifted straight out of the books framing and edits and all

Yes except all of the examples he listed (saving people from a collapsing mine, church fires, etc.) are situations where Superman saving people is 100% the right thing to do
If you are telling a story about how Superman saved a bunch of people from a fire and how that was a mistake and he is having to pay for the consequences of his actions then that is a dumb story

I know we have a lot of power rangers related bleed over with other threads (oh so many threads) but #1 of the new MMPR comic series came out and it's so good. It's a genuinely great comic so far, not just for nostalgia's sake.

It's probably more along the lines of an (ostensibly) American violation of airspace/borders etc. Like I doubt that someone like Putin would be particularly pleased by a super powered guy from Kansas making his fire and rescue/army guys look bad by saving a bunch of people before they could get there. He'd be out there pushing back and saying it was all some American imperialist plot and they probably attacked that power plant in the first place and it's all a coverup etc.
*edit*
It doesn't change the fact that saving those people was the right thing to do, just that some countries or individuals are going to be annoyed by that.

Yep! It's really quite odd, it's set right after Tommy, the green ranger, joined the team (like straight after, he's been with the team for a week or so at this point) except it's also set in current times rather than the 90s like the show was. The team has smartphones and stuff, it actually works rather well.

Those examples were just to illustrate Superman being the Superman we all know. He was supporting the previous sentence with clear acts of heroism.
I think that when he says

he's referring to the total of everything Superman's done in the two years before BvS, not to the examples he was using to support an entirely different point.
i would argue that Man of Steel is an outright bad movie
and why shouldn't people be disappointed that they're taking the most cynical approach possible to a character that's usually about inspiring hope? this isn't just Snyder-bashing, it's a genuine reaction to something the man said regarding a character that has been around for 75 years

Here's the thing, if we're wrong, and that isn't his point, fine, but that doesn't make it better. He's trying to express these ideas to people and if he fails at doing that then that's a problem because that's his job. That doesn't tell me that he's trying to get these things across to an unfriendly audience and we just aren't listening, that tells me that he has no clue how the audience will react or interpret what he puts out there and that's a really bad thing for a director.
If he can't even get his point across in print, how great is our expectation supposed to be for him to be able to do that successfully in the movie where there's more going on?

I mean
I am talking about hating the statement he gave, dude
I think the specific examples he listed, paired with the view that Superman's heroics should have an unforseen cost is a terrible interpretation of the character
If you don't think so and think there's more than what he said that's fine, but this isn't just blind hate of BvS, I am addressing what he straight up said in that quote and think it is some hot bullshit
Angela. Angela is the best thing Marvel is printing right now.
*cough*
I am also loving all of the above, actually. Hellcat is really fun, Silk is great, Thor is great (Malekith is so much fun,) Ms Marvel is just amazing...
Squirrel Girl is a little too wacky for my personal tastes, but it's a good fun comic. The team kinda did their best work in the first few issues culminating in Galactus, I haven't been as big a fan of everything after.
A-Force is really fun, Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur is amazing. Marvel just has a stellar lineup.

Yes
Superman needs to be pure and without any irony
NOr shitty "I read watchman, guys! Superheroes are messed up!"
My favorite books of the relaunch thus far are probably
Captain Marvel
Old Man Logan
Power Man and Iron Fist
Contest of Champions
Sam Wilson: Captain America
I'm fully expecting Moon Knight and Black Panther to try and get in there and there are lots of other fantastic titles but man those books are great
It is also an excellent book but CoC edges it out for me
It is the type of book I love (a bunch of weirdos and C-Listers thrown together against their will into chaos), brought back Ares whom I love and is Ewing just going totally crazy with the Marvel Multiverse
Man of Steel, even removed from how it interprets Superman in a way I think is kind of deplorable, is a bad movie on its own merits. It spends half its running time talking about hope and all but explicitly saying SUPERMAN IS JESUS BASICALLY and then does absolutely nothing to justify all of it. The plot is muddled and scattershot. Nobody reacts to anything the way a human being would react. The action is, for the most part, nonsensical garbage. The tone veers all over the place. It's a mess, it's poorly written, and...you know what, fucking up the core idea of Superman is a legitimate complaint. Even if he didn't snap Zod's neck at the end, they would have already fucked that part up.
Avengers crossover that just started. 2 bookend Alpha and Omega issues and then individual storylines running through a handful of books all revolving around the central plot of
SHIELD running an off the books prison for supervillains that are brainwashed into thinking they are regular citizens of a small American town
My favorite thing about Standoff so far is the reveal of who Sam Wilson's secret Snowden-esque informant, The Whisperer, is
He's Rick Jones.
And Sam's reaction is "oh god dammit of course it is Rick Jones."
Who?
The guy who inadvertently founded the Avengers and was a sidekick to Hulk, Captain America, The Avengers and Captain Marvel.
He has basically made a career of being a regular dude (outside of becoming A-Bomb for the past few years) who is constantly involved in superhero shit and has been for most of his adult life.
So when Sam finds out its him he is extremely not surprised.
