he someone fires a gun, there is a loud bang and a bright light
wouldn't you blink even for a split second.
superman is indestructable but surely his reactions are human i.e if someone (unexepectedly) poped a balloon next to his ear wouldn't he 'jump'
 
look. it is a movie .they are making things to look cool.

I doubt been able to catch bullets is a common reaction for humans, he probably saw the bullet coming so its not a surprise.
 
Yes. Yes he would.

The question has been answered, this thread is moot. :)

Why would he react if he knew it couldn't hurt him and couldn't cause him pain? Athough its not a good comparison, you didn't jump when you heard the gun go off in the trailer did you?

He didn't react because he is not any ordinary average joe... he is SUPERMAN. That should be reason enough.

Are you aware that Superman is not a human?

Superman is not equal to human. Someone should explain it to the man.

:rolleyes:
 
superman knows he is like a god, he knows a simple bullet can not hurt him......... besides it is a scene to make you go... "AWW... COOL!!!!"

dude you're forgetting, a goon just wasted a whole round on him a few seconds earlier. what's a little bullet from a pistol?

Your intelligence is still below average though. :o

The correct spelling is: AGGRAVATE
 
if the subject has been covered I apologise.
I actually think it would have been cooler if he blinks in slow motion just before the bulliet hits.

also he is alien but he thinks and feels like a human, for example I'm pretty sure if he were to put his arm in a meat grinder just before he does it I'm sure there would be that split second of fear/doubt but he would proceed as he knows he can't hurt him whereas a normal human would just draw away.
 
Ive seen him put his arm into grinders and such to show off how powerful he is on many occasions. I dont really think he would do these things if he doubted his abilities.
 
one of these days that bullet will be laced with kryptonite and he will regret being so cocky :)

He's Superman, 'nuff said.
 
no he would not blink, and neither would the avg. person.

this is simply because the speed of a bullet is faster than the person's reaction time, and the time it takes to blink. ur forgetting this is in super slowmo,

OT but that was a great shot in Smallville- Clark saw the bullet coming reached out to grab it but it was made of kryptonite and it went right through his hand and right through his shoulder. the 'holy crap!' look on his face was priceless
