Have you seen this ad? Because I have a question.

So the ad is about some frozen drink at Dairy Queen with a tie-in to the new Superman movie. I saw it while watching the ballgame today. Here it is - notice at about the 5 second mark when he saves the dog.

So, from the Perspective of the monster. You can see his toenails so he clearly isn't wearing shoes. Wouldn't that feel pretty much like stepping on a Lego brick?

If the monster spends the rest of the scene hopping on one foot and cussing in every monster language he knows, I would buy this movie on Blu Ray and watch it over and over. But I'm betting this will prove to be an opportunity lost.

I have not seen the movie. I'm just sharing what popped into my head when I saw the commercial.

You want realism? Probably need to leave the DC world behind.
