Not even remotely true. One, they keep the destruction to a few blocks. Two, Captain America actually talks about evacuation with the police officer. They are trying to spare lives, and the death toll is astronomically less than Smallville.
Yea Cap America helped evacuation while Thor, Iron, Hulk, Hawk Eye, and Black Widow took care of the bad guys.
Superman takes care Zod and the Batman spoke to the......Oh wait, He's by himself.
Why didnt Tony Start "lead they party to Hudson River"......Nooooooooo he has to lead the party right down Park Avenue so Hulk can punch that thing.
Define few blocks. They were all over midtown.
Listen this uproar is dumb its the dumbest thing. The Avenger could have caused same amount of damage Man of Steel did. But Whedon just didnt have buildings collapse that easily could have with those big monsters smashing into them. Smart on his part since it was in NEW YORK CITY.
Snyder wanted more destruction. Snyder could have easily kept those building up intact while Superman fought in the city.
Smallville got it bad but really who cares.
Both movies trashed their city because theyre were dealing with powerful aliens.
Its all art. Its a movie with aliens. Destruction comes with the territory.
Was Superman careless in Smallville, sure. But he only damage that one huge chimney at that factory plant and gas station after his mother was being attacked. Ive seen fight in bars happen where someone get hurt cause they were near by. A kid gets killed in a shootout between the police and some criminals. If a cop is by himself in that shoot out, should he evacuate the area first. No, you gotta stop that threat.
Anyway my post wont change no one's mind. IGN did a video where they asked experts to total the damage financially and by death tolls. They did that because people were shock to se destruction in an alien invasion movie.
