James Gunn’s Superman Operate with a series of fantasies: a man who has been in the world for centuries and roams among us, a world that almost universally loves a strange alien who comes to Earth to enhance and protect the greatest ideal of mankind for a better tomorrow. These are actually key pauses for every superhero movie. But in stark contrast, its other key pillar is more down-to-earth in this kind of suspension: modern journalism can be accepted universally to save the day as much as possible.
Between all pocket universe destruction, ryptonian drama and superman scrapping Superman Perhaps one of the most surprising pop culture movies about journalism in a long time. Comic characters have long worked in the press, from egos like Clark to Peter Parker to Peter Parker, or human allies like Vicki Vale, Lois Lane, Ben Urich, Robbie Robertson and more, but more so their journalistic background often has to look back on superhero stories (especially based on heroes) (especially based on heroes), especially
Superman It is true that tensions with this conflict have been briefly tensioned, though largely to ignore it like comics – both Clark and Lois are involved in the conflict of interest they date each other and their knowledge of Superman’s secret identity; Jimmy Olsen’s extensive reports of Lex Luthor’s connection to Boravian’s invasion of Jarhanpur depend on the hateful evidence of sources he had previously romantically involved, and he communicated his promise of a weekend date with the source. We never know if the latter report reveals this fact, and it seems that Louis never seemed to have experienced anything in his interview with Clark in the opening ceremony of the film, which is obviously because in an ideal world, she must reveal herself or withdraw her report, given her personal relationship with the subject.
But the facts Superman Even the out of reach shows its broader interest in journalism, especially as a tool of public goods. The first major scene in the film by Clark and Lois is in the latter’s interview at the latter’s apartment, as Lois laughs at Clark, who washes up his reputation as Superman’s journalist for Daily Planet’s debut, means just giving himself a light, boring question to answer. From a journalistic perspective, it was a pleasant scene, even abandoning the hypocrisy of Lois knocking on the door as Clark reported it to himself before interviewing his own romantic partner. Both Clark and Lois play roles here: the former stops Clark and becomes Superman, both of them talk about themselves in the third person and adopts his body language and tone when they are outfitting. But equally important, Louis separates herself from a grumpy girlfriend (outside as much as possible, she completely evacuates herself from the interview, completely as a conflict of interest) and becomes the “Ms. Lane” of the Daily Planet.
In addition to including the simplest explanation, the “record” how to shoot superhero movies with journalists (whenever Superman I longed to clip the clip and then bite the sound into half of my inbox contact), which is a back and forth contact between Lois and Clark, because Lois correctly said that Lois spoke about Superman’s power, at a boravia level like Boravia or Luthercorp, Superman like Superman. That’s what Superman means, and if Clark intends to make a one-sided decision to intervene in international conflict, she has a lot of controversy over Clark’s frustration: a good press conference to question and maintain the power to account.
Even in the clever scenes, Louis drives the tricky compromise of conducting this interview from an independent perspective, even if the framework of her questions doesn’t necessarily align with her own personal beliefs. As she said to Clark, she Boravia’s claim to be liberated from the authoritarian regime cannot be believed, but as a journalist, she must allow the claim to be as effective as Superman claims that his intervention is the only alternative to saving lives. It’s fascinating public criticism of media impartiality in our own world SupermanSimilar to the Russian invasion of Ukraine or the Israeli occupation of Gaza (especially the latter reading, critical media failure to report Israel’s campaign as a genocide campaign), it is similar to the Russian invasion of Ukraine or Israel, which is similar to the Russian invasion of Ukraine or Israel. This is in a superhero movie where one of the dubious Nathan Fillion fights the giant Kaiju and summons pure pure construction to pay tribute to them in a single point!
But the news reality shown between Louis and Clark is not a real fantasy, it is a superhero comic fantasy Superman. In the chaos in the third act of the movie Metropolis, Lex Luthor’s Pocket Universe Rift is torn apart, and the film revolves around the real bets of Lois and Jimmy’s report on Luthor’s relationship with Boravian President Vasil Ghurkos. Literally, archived directly to the CMS of the Daily Planet (for those who don’t know it, it’s a content management system, from one CMS author to another CMS author to Mr. Olsen, because his risk is not in DC’s Google Docs, equivalent to Google Docs!), from Trearforific’s ship, Planet Team, Planet Team immediately launched their article.
The report is spread all over the news, and even more, if not more, brings public opinion back to Superman’s favor, as Clark is actually saving a waste of life and trying to stop the metropolis from splitting into half. The report has direct consequences to Lex Luthor’s arrest: Daily Planet is essential to save a day SupermanThe ending like the titular hero himself.
In a modern news environment, where exports across the industry are closed every day, fighting the rise of generative AI, or simply trying to revolve around the socio-political environment increasingly isolated in the echo chamber of the “post-real” world, the fact that the importance of the Daily Planet in its mission may run away, not like a suspended part, not like a suspended part. boundary.
(And, it seems that any journalist in a mostly print media news agency can afford a Lois Lane or Clark Kent apartment, but that’s the point).
