James Gunn’s Superman Movie Makes A Controversial Change (But It’s Not The First Time)

This article contains The main spoilers For “Superman”.

The superheroes have been present as a kind of themselves for nearly a century, and of course, they underwent the narration of stories. There is a big difference between the open sincerity in the golden age of comedy and postmodern dismantling from the “guards”, “Dark Knight” triple, and “Man of Steel”. Over the first few decades, Superman’s character was a strongly strong bell. If it happens to decline in this path temporarily, the form of crepetunit is usually blamed and not any defect in the personality. In Richard Doner in 1978 “Superman”, Cal Il (which Christopher Reef played) was not photographed as a real blue man who has never lied in America after abundance and Vietnam, but his parents Yuzer Yuran (Marlon Brando) and somewhat spoke to each of their divisions. It makes an easily understandable interpretation of the reason that Kal-Il has gone out of the way he does (not to mention it that another group of good parents in Smolville, Kansas), allows the film to communicate with the work of other elements, such as making Superman seems to be actually flying.

James Gan “Superman” does not have the burden that Donner did. With nearly 50 years of super cinema behind it, “Superman” 2025 is in a rare place to choose cherries for decades from both the traditions of cinematic and comic books in its copy of the character, and choose it. The film is filled together at an angle of bits and pieces of previous “Superman” projects, from the topic of John Williams from ’78 to The Rom-Com in Lois & Clarak on TV. However, Gunn makes a series of bold bold options in the film, the most controversial is that Jor-IL (Bradley Cooper) and Lara (Angela Sarafyan) are revealed that they are less than perfect reasons to send Kal-IL (David CorensWet) to Earth. It is a sudden revelation, but not to distort the conspiracy itself, as a copy of it appeared in the previous media. Everything about how Gunn is used to develop and focus on it, which makes its appearance in “Superman” controversial and controversial.

The parents of Superman Kryptonian are usually depicted as charitable personalities, but that changed thanks to the writer John Bernen 1986 “The Man of Steel”, which is the renewal of Superman’s origin to involve George Eli and Lara. This series ended with the choice of Superman, the embrace of its human education on its Circassian heritage, which makes it carry the knowledge of the extinct Kripiton race. In the 2003 Mark Waid series, “Superman: Birthright”, Superman gets a short moment with his parents before Krypton explodes. While the general lack of Superman to its past helps him to prefer the Earth over Carbon, the issue of embracing its heritage is dealt with metaphorically by the series on Lex. He revealed that he came from Smolville, Kansas, alongside Clark, but he refuses to admit this, and instead chose to deceive humanity to believe that Carbon is a evil foreign oppression race, a conspiracy narrated by Superman, of course.

Revelation around the father of Superman in Gunn is mainly combined between Bern and Waid elements, along with the movie Donner and Blotline from the “Smallville” series of TV. Finally, Clark should deal with teenager (Tom and Ning) with the interpretation of the personality and the intentions of Gore El, because the man was only able to transfer his brain waves to Amnesty International that was sent with Cal Il to Earth. At one time, Clark and other characters believed that Euer Il had sent his child to the ground to conquer him, just to discover that he was the most desire to release AI from Jor-Il instead of being the man who was no longer for him.

This concept is referred to in the Gunn movie by Ploot of Superman, which has a short video message stored in the isolation castle as its only relationship with Jor-Il and Lara. While raising him on the floor, Kal-Lel/Clark used the video as a totta, calming with the idea that his parents saved his life from love, as it appears in the clip. Later, the invasion of Lex and Pose Castle, and you find the engineer (María Gabriela DE FARíA) is a way to unlock the rest of the message. LEX calls a message to the media, where Jor-IL and Lara State have in the shots that Kal sent to the Earth as the last son of Krypton, Superman supposed to be a Luteor trick, which is also assumed by the public. But the message is legitimate, forcing Superman to face some difficult facts about his sons and the type of human – not to mention Methaumman – and he wants to be.

Parents in Kal-Il seem to have dismantling intentions of the Earth, or even controversially from the personality on paper, but Gunn not only looks to shock or stirring things. Instead, the twisted acts as an ideal packaging of the film’s themes for being your person and choosing to do the right thing, even if it is unlucky. Gunn’s Take on Kal-IL is a continuation of topics through his career, but in particular those seen in the trilogy of “The Guardians of the Galaxy”. In these films, many characters who make up a team of space champions with their families suffer. The idea of sophisticated and mirror characters appeared in John’s films as well, not only with the nebula (Karen Gilan) in “Guardians”, but also with the peacemaker (John Cena), and even “Superman”.

Gunn deliberately plays with Trops Trops and subsequent audience expectations, but the film is not summarized in the conflict within Superman with good parents versus bad parents. Instead, the entire film revolves around the ideas of the advanced Kal-Clark/Superman about who he is, who wants to be, and what he wants to contribute in the world. His parents are not photographed, the earth, PA and MA Kent (Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Hverter) as two saints; They are just sincere types of salt whose advice in Clark is not to follow their steps, but to take the tools they provided to him as parents and forming his own way. This idea is only radical (or “wicked rock music”, as the movie will be) for Superman as the Crapeonian. Most Superman’s versions actively see him in an attempt to honor his parents’ desires, and both groups are usually. This version of Superman is about giving the character freedom of choice, which is more American in its core than any prior “values”.

This helps to make this superman a multi -dimensional personality without the need to resort to anything like taking an enemy neck. People who have a good relationship with their families can be proud of Clark’s love for his parents in Kansas, while those who find strength in their families who have been found or simply themselves can be associated with how Kal-Il does his own way, which does not exceed his problematic past. If the 1978 movie indicates the value of integrity in a nation it lost, and “Man of Steel” that was interrogated “Man of Steel” for 2013, “Superman” for 2025 is intended for our current age.

We do not have to obey the desires of our elders. We have the freedom to think for ourselves, and choose to help others is available to all of us.
