I understand the problem with the civillian collateral damage.
However I don't have a problem with the kill. He was faced with an impossible choice and he decided to put the safety of others before his own personal morals. Of course he was upset, didn't everyone see him freak out?
Superman's writers always give him an easy way out, Goyer did not. Superman was shown to be imperfect in his decision making, this makes him a more human and appealing character to me. His humanity is his weakness, people seem to forget that.
People are always critiquing superman for being too perfect, yet now everyone is throwing their hands up in the air when he isn't. Make up your minds people.
Okay, seriously, where are these die hard Mandarin fans? I've read Iron Man for 30 years and have never once given a rat's ass about him.
Even without the twist, at best he would have just been some schemer because, Fu-Manchu with magic rings would have been absolutely ridiculous in the reality they've created.
I just cannot deal with the preposterous obsession with Batman anymore. Yes he is awesome, but some people treat like a quasi-religous figure who must be worshipped.
