I don't cry in movies however I acknowledge and appreciate certain movies pack an emotional punch... Man of Steel wasn't one of them

No, why would you? I felt kinda bad for Zod, since he wasn't really a bad guy, but I wasn't anywhere close to tears.

No only cried when Jonathan Kent died. Really powerful scene with great acting and a lot of emotional impact. Wish it made sense as well.

lmao how wasn't he a bad-guy? It's not like he was carrying a ship full of refugees, and needed the planet because it was the only hospitable one while they were running out of resources.

lol nope. My reaction was more of astonishment in a "FUG HE ACTUALLY DID IT" way than sadness.

It takes a lot for fiction to make me cry tbh.

Because in his mind he was doing what he thought was the right thing (and honestly, it was).

It's the manner in which he went about it that was kinda wrong.

How's it right? He wanted to create a society based around his own principals in order to control it and he wanted to wipe out another population to do it. There is not a single thing benevolent about his agenda.

It's not like the aliens in "The Event" who wanted to wipe us out to make room for their people because their planet was dying. Zod wanted to make room for people who didn't even exist yet.

What? No. The whole thing wrong with the Kryptonian society is that they were genetically created to fulfill a particular duty in life and society; their life choices and paths were decided for them from birth (Jor-El and Lara are rare cases). Zod didn't wanted to recreate Krypton, because as Krypton's leading general, his duty was to protect and preserve Krypton; it is literally within his DNA to fulfill that one purpose. He didn't want to recreate krypton based around "his own principles", where the hell did you get that from?!?!?! I mean his entire motivations for his actions were entirely spelled out each time he spoke, LITERALLY. And with the codex in Superman's DNA, he had no choice but to sniff him out, which meant threatening Earth. He wasn't doing it out of spite, or evilness, or hatred, or even malicious intent; he was doing it because that's what he was created to do.

Not really. They need more character development in these movies. They also need to take it more slowly and not try to introduce a dozen characters in a single movie and jump right to the end of a story (Dark Knight Returns, Death of Superman). You need to earn people's investment in characters over time.

Being genetically programmed to do something bad makes him not evil? Are sociopaths who do bad things not evil either, because they often have genetic anomalies and abnormal brain function as well.
