I think the main problem is he’s just too overpowered.
My thing is...if you think a hero is incredibly powerful...wouldn’t the solution be to put him or her up against a villain who’s equally or more powerful?
Why does this keep getting trotted out when we have successful Thor and Hulk movies?
He isn’t overpowered. He’s just had underpowered directors.
They did with Zod. The problem there was it just became destruction porn.
I agree with the poster who said they should focus more on Clark. How does he balance his life between being basically a god among men and a Kansas small town boy?

They weren't that successful.

Only if you regard physical strength as being a measure of power.
It’s about good writing. That’s the problem Superman has had. He hasn’t had good writing in movies.
I'll be honest, I have little faith we will ever get what we want even if we got a Abrams or Spielberg directing, wb wouldn't be able to stop themselves from interfering.
What is there even to get with the genre?Exactly. WB is the problem. They don't get the character. They don't seem to get the genre, period.

WB pretty much let Singer and Snyder make the films they wanted to make in Superman Returns and Man of Steel. They would let Spielberg or Abrams do what they desire.

I disagree. I don't think that Snyder would have hired Affleck, nor shoehorned in Doomsday, nor made a vs. movie against Batman and Superman. Those were all box office motivated choices, not narrative ones. I can't prove it, but that's what makes the most sense.
Justice League is worse. That movie reads, from top to bottom, as an executive controlled movie.
