I am a superman fan, and my favorite superhero is Superman, so as soon as I heard that cw station was going to broadcast this drama, I immediately looked for it and watched it. Before writing this manuscript, I still have half an hour of drama. After reading it, it's not that I can't watch it, but I just feel a little bit. . . How to say, sad? Heartache?
First of all, let's talk about the appearance of this Superman. In fact, I have been paying attention to this Superman since the era of Supergirl and Crisis on Infinite Earths. At that time, I felt that this version of Superman might be the least Superman of all Superman. (The same frame as Brandon later proved.) Superman's setting incorporates Apollo in ancient Greek mythology, as well as Jesus and Moses in the Bible. Aside from all the religious metaphors in him, he The most important setting is handsome! It's that kind of epic handsome, like Reeve, like Brandon, like Cavill. That kind of sculpture-like temperament. Well, this superman, although not ugly, is not handsome in the right place.
But this is not the point. After only half an hour of acting, I realized that this drama is obviously not a super-British drama, but a family drama on tmd. After a while, there will be conflicts between husband and wife, employment pressure, and child rebellion. These middle-aged men should have The pressure of the brain was stuffed to our super.
Yes, Superman is awesome. But you're as fast as light, and you can't catch up with Martha's death; you can instantly make an iceberg out of frozen sea, and you can't stop the capitalists from firing you when they want to fire you, your heat vision is so strong that it explodes The planet is so detailed that you can perform surgery. You can clearly know what the person on the opposite side has eaten today, and you can't figure out what your two children are thinking. (The younger son actually likes to abuse Superman π_π when he fights Injustice. It's uncomfortable.)
See this and don't understand? To say that it is a family drama is actually a naked stab. Come on, that's Superman, that's the world's first superhero, he can fly through a building in an instant, he can stop a speeding train, he's faster than a bullet. Instead of a person caught in a middle-aged crisis, with a face full of flattery, and a hint of relief and helplessness in his smile? I can qnmd it! ! !
I'm fucking watching Superman in his straitjacket and blowing those little curls on his forehead. Fuck Steppenwolf, fuck Doomsday, fuck Darkseid! ! ! ! ! What I want to see is Superman with his bat friends and his colorful brothers, shouting to the universe: "The earth is covered by us, I don't care what dark king you are or Oua's little blue man, we are here. Don't point fingers."
Heartache, I thought about it, it can only be heartache. To be honest, I have seen the death of Superman countless times in the comics, movies, and TV series, and I am not surprised by the death of Superman. Even if that comic told me that Superman was really dead, I believed this man, this man named Clarke, fought and died in battle for what he believed in. Just like in "Super Bat", Superman carries a kryptonite gun and pierces Doomsday with one shot.
However, in this drama, the middle-aged Superman made me more sad than the death of Superman. I didn't even bother about the actor who was not very handsome, but felt it was very suitable. Seeing the slightly vicissitudes of his face, I just wanted to sit next to him, light a cigarette, and ask him "Hey Clark, they say you can beat Darkseid, is that true?"
I hope, the answer I heard was "Yeah, we fought the Dark Lord and won, but that's what we all fought together." Not "Oh shit, this is not the time to say this, I'm going to Go see my new job."

Are you still willing to return to the ordinary after the waves are exhausted?
After watching the first episode, I posted my thoughts on the show on many social media and video sites for no other reason than a Superman fan. I would love to be with a group of kids who don't seem to grow up like me, discussing the flying one in the sky. Is that a bird? Is that an airplane? That's Superman.
Among them, there is a comment at station B that makes me smile. The comment probably means that the editor of this drama is not good. Superman has so many superpowers.
Seeing this kind of comment, most of the replies are mainly ridicule, such as "That's right, super high-speed bricks are ten times faster than others", "Are you hungry when you deliver food and hang Meituan?" (I have a question when it comes to this. , if Dachao really goes to deliver food, will the biological position protect the food from being turned out, lol). I replied patiently, "What Superman wants to do in his life is to integrate into the life of the people on Earth. In a sense, it is precisely because he has experienced unemployment, mother loss, and mid-life crisis that his integration is successful. ." Then combined with the second episode, after the waves are exhausted, are you still willing to return to the ordinary?
After watching the second episode, in fact, my feelings are very deep, which is why I changed the playful writing style of the last time I wrote the article, and replaced it with this narrative style.
After getting used to this kind superman uncle, I gradually watched this drama. To be honest, watching American dramas, especially super-British American dramas as popcorn, I rarely stopped to think about something, but the second episode I stopped several times in just over 40 minutes.
It's so similar to my life.
There are actually many boring bumps in ordinary life, such as old classmates who seem to be enthusiastic but don't know what they are thinking, such as the husband of classmates who are dissatisfied with you but still want to give you barbecue. Take myself as an example. My parents don't really like to have guests at home, but they always entertain some guests every New Year. My parents and I and those guests are very similar to Louis and Dachao in this barbecue banquet. We can refuse but we can't refuse. In ordinary life, ordinary social life is like water. Human beings are social animals after all, and they may sometimes not need anything. The necessary reason is to gather together spontaneously, in my mother's words, "hold a group for warmth".
Are you saying that Superman likes this kind of boring socializing? In fact, not necessarily, but some things are complementary to each other, with this there must be that. You are the god of the world, overlooking all living beings and the partners of the Justice League talking about cosmic events, salvation, mercy, heroes, and love, but only not the fireworks of the world; you are Clark Kent, who can enjoy peace and harmony A family life together, enjoying the love of a wife, and sharing happiness with two sons, but it will definitely be troubled by mundane things.
"Hey Clark. Tell me, do you really like this life? As a normal human being, not a superman"
"Actually, I now find that the two are not so easy to replace. Today I went to fight a man in armor. But today I also appeased my youngest son's sensitive self-esteem, and my wife's actions. Journalists' desire to fight."
"Is he really a heroic reporter man?"
"Louis would love this name"
I still underestimate Superman, underestimate this drama, the man who has gone through the vicissitudes of life is sometimes much stronger than you think. (ps: I didn’t expect that in this drama, Xiao Qiao (Jonathan) is no longer an only child, but a sunny and emotionally intelligent brother, as well as a sensitive but brave brother Jordan, a good setting.)
