The main problem here is that by the time this movie comes out, we might have a new Speaker and the political messaging will fail.

I mean with both candidates? You’re fine either way.

This is the Speaker, and who knows how that'll work out.

Figured it out. Sam Lane is the Attorney General, and since it's not technically the nukes, just normal missiles, he's allowed to use them. Because it's so important, he feels the need to personally oversee this operation.

Just do blam or something.

Act 1:

We open with a dream. A child being abandoned by their parents. Launched into the cold, unfeeling abyss of space. Clark Kent narrates over the dream. He's been having it for the past few days and he wonders. How could anyone do that? Abandon their child like that? Launch them in a rocket to die. Do they not care? He doesn't know why he's having this dream. He doesn't know who this child is. But one thing's for sure. He'll find this child. Whoever it is…

Cut to TITLE CARD: Superman and the City of Tomorrow

POW! Superman gets punched by a purple fist, the fist of Parasite. He picks up the figure and throws him to the ground when suddenly, Bizarro pounces on him. Superman shakes him off as Livewire shoots a bolt of electricity at Parasite, giving him enough energy to get back up. The battle continues. Toyman, Atomic Skull, Silver Banshee, Microwave Man, all arrive just to give Superman a battle he'll never forget. Superman pushes through them, fighting no matter what, as he reaches exactly what he wanted the whole time. Or rather… who he wanted. A child. A small, scared child. He picks up the child, tells them it'll be okay, uses his superspeed to get her out of the way, then comes back. He turns around to see all these villains ready to pick up the fight. He smiles.

Daily Planet. The office is bustling with work. “KENT! KENT! Where is that man…” grumbles Perry White. “LANE! Do you know where Kent is?” Lois Lane. Pulitzer Prize winning investigative reporter, former army brat, terrible typist replies “No. Probably got captured by a supervillain again.” She gets a call from Jimmy Olsen, photographer. “Hello? Again? Alright. Oh, is Clark with you? They always put you in separate places, don't they. I'm on my way.” Perry sees Lois leave her desk. “Lane? Where are you going?” “Getting Jimmy. Bunch of villains are attacking Waid Hall, he got captured again.” Lois gets up, and rushes down the stairs. “Lane! LANE! WHEN YOU HEAR THERE'S DANGER, YOUR FIRST INSTINCT SHOULD NOT BE TO RUN TOWARDS THE DANGER! LAAAAAANNNNNEEEE!”

More fighting. Punches upon punches upon punches. Superman, at this point, just trying to keep them at bay. There are too many of them. Suddenly… “Ow!” Superman falls to the ground, clutching his shoulder. He looks at it. A green shard is embedded in his invulnerable shoulder. An impossibility. And yet… completely real. He looks up to see a sniper on top of a building leaving. His enemies walk towards him when suddenly, he appears in a white void.

“Not now, please not now, this is a horrible time…” “Welcome to The Mister Mxyzptlk Show, with your host, Mister Mxyzptlk!” says a disembodied announcer. Superman is severely annoyed by this. Mxy walks out. “Welcome to the 6.022 × 10²³ episode of our show! And to celebrate, we're giving you a special treat! For the past 2 millennia, I've been terrorizing you!” “It's only been 4 years.” “That's what you think! Anyway, to celebrate, until you tell me to stop, I'm going to be helping you only! No more turning your friends into turtles or puppets, just helping you. And to start, I'll be stopping most of your villains for you! Not all though, our audience needs some entertainment.” And Superman is teleported back to Waid Hall.

He sees Parasite in front of him when he's suddenly run over by a car. Lois opens the door and yells “Where's Jimmy!” Superman gets in and asks what she's talking about. He doesn't know Jimmy's there. A car chase ensues with Parasite chasing after them as we get to see their dynamic. The car crashes into a building to reveal Jimmy, dangling over a vat of boiling acid. Superman gets out, and falls to the floor in pain. Suddenly, Parasite crashes through the roof and puts his hands on Superman's head. Energy flows through him, crackling. But he starts to overload and say the same number over and over again. 36. 36. 36. Parasite falls to the floor, unconscious. The battle is over. But what has it led to…?

In space, a ship floats. We see robotic tentacles controlling screens. One of these screens flashes in an alien language. The tentacles click on the screen, as it shows a picture of Superman…

Think so

I figured out how to fix the movie! I promise this is the last time I'm making a major change to the themes of the movie. So, instead of being about identity, it'll be about change, specifically change as a person. Clark's arc stays the same, realizing that he's not Clark Kent or Kal-El, he's Superman. Meanwhile, Braniac has no identity. It's just a machine. If it's in its database, it is perfect. People cannot change. Clark Kent is in its database. Kal-El is in its database. Superman does not exist. People cannot change. People cannot grow beyond. At the beginning of the film, Lois believes that people cannot change their beliefs. She believes that once you've expressed your beliefs, you can't change them. But as the movie goes on, she changes her beliefs about Superman and that Clark could have saved Metropolis from being bottled.

I have an idea about animation. Instead of doing proper full animation, we make it more animatic style. That way, we can still make quality movies, express the same ideas just as effectively, release movies faster, and it'll be easier to animate. This does mean we'll need a new model since the one's we're going with don't really work, but other than that, I see no cons to this plan.

The more I think about it, the less sure I am about Lois's arc here. Anything else that fits with the themes?

I don't know, though right now I'm not exactly able to come up with ideas without getting distracted.
