I really wish our poll system worked.
The problem is that neither approach is right for the character.I’d rather have Superman be a little down than him looking like he’s about to kill me.
My counterargument to that is that comics and live-action can be two very different mediums. IRL a 1:1 classic Superman suit would look quite plain. You need something breaking up the design somehow, even if it's just some kind of texturing. Unfortunately they went overboard with it here.I have a theory in these sort of movies in which they get so caught up in designs and concept art and options and textures that sometimes they miss/forget/overlook the simplicity of the original design.
Fan ratings don't mean much though. This stuff is always subjective.

Sure, yes. There's a middle ground that is hard to obtain. But sometimes they add up so many little small changes from one design to the other that the original concept design gets disfigured. It happens in music too. The demo can be vastly different from the final song and there are many elements that get lost in the middle.My counterargument to that is that comics and live-action can be two very different mediums.

The best guess I have is maybe he wants Superman to intentionally look a bit weird because he's an alien.Ok @Invader Joker the eyebrows are definitely still lightened in the pic. Idk what’s up with that. I mean it looks fine in that pic, I just don’t get the point of doing it at all?
It'd narrow down Superman's secret identity a little more for the likes of Lois, Jimmy, and Perry.The best guess I have is maybe he wants Superman to intentionally look a bit weird because he's an alien.
The other guess I have is that he has darker eyebrows as Clark Kent and it's part of the look to throw people offIt'd narrow down Superman's secret identity a little more for the likes of Lous, Jimmy, and Perry.

I mean, literally all the costumes do…Too bad the costume pretty much hides most of that physique.
