Precisely.
I mean especially with blockbusters , each movie is tryint to be better then hte previous one in terms of action ..and story and acting .
Supes while great on the realism of NK , the plane rescue and the saving of metropolis , doesn't give you anything original.
I mean take Spidey 2 for example. Here you have 1) spiderman fighting Doc Ock and 2) having to save a subway from crashing .
Heck they're doing for or less the same thing for spidey 3
You have 1) spidey stopping a bankrobbery 2) while fighting sandman 3) and also participating in a car chase.
Even tough it has similar things , it's combines them for something new.
Did Sr have that ? No. Plane Resuce -> better version of the helicopter rescue.
Supes lifting NK in space -> countless shots of superman lifting heavy stuff,
Supes saving the city -> how many times has he not done that in the earlier movies .
I mean we are going back to the same old disucssed topic which is superman fighting a supervillain.
But again , it's important for the makers to go back to the comics because
1) you can choose a solid villain
2) you know what the villain can do in terms of action and destruction
3) you get a free backstory as opposed to creating a entirely new villain
4) finally you get do finally do something new because the action of a superman fighting a superhero villain in in many ways greater and more epic then the spiderman movies so far.
