Am I actually allowed to sit on this park bench?
That’s the twist they went with?
Yeah, Gunn went with the old Twilight Zone plot, but the message got damaged in the crash so Clark thought “to serve man” meant to be helpful, and never learnt to cook.
(Plus, after growing up with the best versions of Ma and Pa Kent I’ve ever seen he wouldn’t for a second have accepted the real message and he’d still have acted exactly the same way as he did when he believed it told him to help; Lara and Jor-El might be his biological parents, but his real parents, the ones who educated him, were always the Kents.)
That’s the twist they went with? Isn’t that just the plot of Dragon Ball?
Dragon Ball Z.
The plot of Dragon Ball is Journey to the West / boobs are fun / Toriyama forgot, let’s do fights.
that makes things almost filmic
His early books literally started with a visual description of the reader’s imagination “camera” gradually focusing on Great A’Tuin, the Disc, whatever region the action was going to happen in, and so on.
Filmic is exactly what he was going for.

I can’t find the exact original image, but this appears to be an image of actor Christoph Waltz portraying Standartenführer Hans Landa in Quentin Tarantino’s film Inglourious Basterds, photoshopped to make fun of Nintendo’s notorious asshattery.
Help! Help! We’re being repressed!

Most of that will probably hit another building, or a tree, or the ground, or something, and get absorbed (and permitted), but some of it might not hit anything solid and carry on into the atmosphere… where a good part of it will end up hitting a cloud, or a nitrogen atom, or a pigeon… but some might end up in space. And carry on for aeons, into the cosmos.

They’ll support and reinforce whatever rambling or delusion you talk to them about, and provide “evidence” to support it (made up evidence, of course, but if you’re already down the rabbit hole you’ll buy it).
And they’ll keep doing that as long as you let them, since they’re designed to keep you engaged (and paying).
They’re extremely dangerous for anyone with the slightest addictive, delusional, suggestible, or paranoid tendencies, and should be regulated as such (but won’t).

If anything, Gore winning would have 100% prevented any chance of a President Obama happening.
President Obama not happening means him not roasting Trump at the 2011 correspondents dinner and Trump not deciding to run for president out of sheer humiliation, narcissism, spite, and stupidity, though.
Without that he’d been happy staying with his bankrupt casinos and TV gigs.
Between that and Gore actually doing something against climate change it’d probably have been a net positive.
These colours were chosen specifically so we wouldn’t notice the nicotine coating everything.
