super speed rebuilding of Metropolis 

I'd rather they didn't make it so obvious but yeah that would be so cool!
He shouldn't have to win the trust of people. Realistically, people will always have mixed emotions towards Superman no matter what he does. Superman should just do what he feels is best in whatever situation regardless of what others think of him.
...buying everyone a neck brace.
Letting people touch his \S/. !
Offering free international travel trips...with carry- on.
...allowing people to tug on his cape...
Exactly. he should just "Keep on keepin'on". Eventually most people (except for the usual hardheads who just are really hateful people) will come around and realize he's the real deal.
And NO DYING!!!. That is one really lame idea.
How hardheaded would it be to stay mad at the dude who messed up your home/limbs/family member's limbs/head just because he didn't wanna take the fight somewhere else. .

That's what sucks so much about it for me, that his haters have a point. It's hard to believe that this is an actual issue for the sequel to deal with: how does Superman make up for his screw ups in the first film? Lord.
It's a tricky line they have to walk. My suggestion would be compensate. Big time. Throw in as many scenes of caring, empathetic, cool Superman as you can. Nothing's gonna erase the controversies of MOS, but if they go out of their way to make up for it, they'll be better off. If it makes them seem apologetic, good.
No director worth his salt should apologise for his work while working on the very same character.
And you'll see Snyder won't apologise for MOS. prepare to be disappointed.
I don't think you have to get all cute with it. I'd like to see Superman, maybe standing in the middle of a mob and he allows his critics just tear him apart left and right;shouting things at him. Being angry at him. Throwing out the most absurd and derogatory insults one at a time with powerful chatter behind it as he remains silent just listening. After getting drilled, simply have Supes look each and every citizen in the eye who cussed him out, smile and promise them that he will win them over and he is here to help. He goes on that he takes full responsibility by the way his critics view him and uses his charm to ask for the chance for him to try to change their minds of him as he flys away. This is followed by good deed after good deed from Superman throughout the movie with the public and doing some heroic things along the way, even the little stuff. Slowly but surely and by the end, people will cheer him and sing his name.
