Now that James Gunn’s Superman is available at home, more people are experiencing the summer hit. Which means more opinions about the film are coming in and some of them…probably should have just stayed gone.
One such take is that Superman doesn’t “change or grow” throughout the course of the film. Not only is that wrong but the “double down” that I saw online was writer Joe Russo saying that “protagonists don’t ‘have’ to change or grow. They can face conflict that causes them to double-down on who they are.” Arguably, confirming that the character did in fact “grow” because they realized who they were.
