Man of Steel: A Symbol of Hope

I really liked this fanedit, which is surprising given my feelings towards the theatrical release. I decided to give this version a chance only because I have grown to trust TM2YC's touch and skill.
First and foremost, the color grading is wonderful. MoS felt really grim and sour, partly because of the greenish tint. Here things feel a lot better.
Second, I think the narrative is excellent. The cutting choices make a lot of sense, help trim excruciatingly long scenes, and depict Superman as a more likable character, that actually cares about humanity.
So I recommend you give ASoH a chance, even if you didn't like MoS.

I'm a huge Superman fan, and have watched the vanilla MoS around 10 times. I enjoyed it for the most part, but there were some issues i had. I will say that TM2YC fixed all of those issues and then some. The color alone is worth the watch, but the pacing and music really was a true fix.

The only small issue i had was the removal of some of my favorite action shots, but oh well. Thanks for the hard work, it is by far my favorite of all the MoS edits.

Thank you!

Once again TM2YC has donde it, this edit is fantastic, while retaining its original story somehow he has taken the dark tone out of it giving this edit such a fantastic inspirational story. The color grading is spectacular, this is how the movie should have looked. The new placement of musical cues is greatly inspirational, we get a real sense of the Man of Steel soundtrack this way, it really works. Thanks for this edit, it is my favorite of all the MoS edits, fantastic work.

So, I used to love Superman when I was a child. I was never introduced to Superman by the comics. My first introduction to Superman was through the classic films. Then I grew up and I have come to hate Superman. I hate how his powers make no sense, I hate how overpowered he is. I liked Batman a lot. The Dark Knight trilogy's exploration of a superhero has fascinated me for quite a while. And then I saw Man of Steel. It was an okay film. I liked the darker iteration they were going for even if it came of as a bit cheap right after the dark knight trilogy. It did not make me like Superman though, and it was forgettable. A mere formality to step into the DCEU.

This fan edit tweaks small things to surprising effect. The color, oh my God the color. It brings life to the film. The adjustments make Superman humble with all the power he has. His beginning makes sense to me. The music, WHY THE HELL DID THEY NOT HAVE THE ADDED SOUNDTRACK IN THE FIRST PLACE :P It gives awe and heart to certain moments. This is the definitive way to experience Man of Steel in my opinion. After all, it made me like Superman again.

Loved this edit. I’m a fan of the original version but this one was just as good. I didn’t even notice the cuts.
Job well done!
