    I have mixed feelings. Man of Steel was a good film with a decent, modern take on the character. Henry Cavil was a great casting choice for the lead role and I’d love to see him get another shot at it. I don’t see the need for a reboot with a different cast. It feels like he’s being punished for Superman v Batman and Justice League, films with shortcomings that were not his fault.

    I’d rather see Gunn do for Superman what he did with The Suicide Squad - retain good performers from the lackluster predecessor films but give them a good script to work with.

      The stuff Man of Steel got right was amazing. Clark working on a boat and saving the oil workers. Clark and Lois in the bathtub in Batman v. Superman.

      But the stuff it got wrong… yeesh.
