- And the Fandom Rejoiced:
- With James Gunn directing and Peter Safran assuring that the character's personality will be faithful to the pre-New 52 comic incarnations, fans breathed a sigh of relief for Superman's image since the first DC Extended Universe film.
- In stark contrast to the fandom's negative reactions to the CGI recreation of the late Christopher Reeves' Superman in The Flash, Will Reeves (who is Christopher's son) appears as a cameo, which is seen as a much more respectful tribute to Christopher than the former film does.
- Author's Saving Throw:
- Compared to New 52-inspired costume from Man of Steel, the Superman suit in this film is now simpler and colorful, complete with his signature red trunks.
