Man of Steel: 10 Mistakes From Superman Returns Reboot Must Avoid

7. Creepy Superman

The problem with a Superman that is having such a hard time emotionally, is that he gets up to some fairly ethically questionable things while he's trying to work through his issues. For a character with such a traditional set of values, he doesn't seem to struggle too much with taking another man's fiancée for an entirely inappropriate romantic spin in the clouds. Worse than that, it gets downright creepy when the Man of Steel hovers outside of Louis and Richard's home to spy on their family. A squeaky clean portrayal of the character would probably alienate audiences, but a Superman that gives in to some very basic of human vices so easily is difficult to admire.
