I never liked how Superman tries to be all "cool" by saying "I'll see you around!" to Gus before flying off. It seemed too cool a thing to say and not nearly square enough for Superman.
Any other person and Superman would have said "I'd like all you coal people to know that coal mining is one of the dirtiest and most hazardous forms of green-house gas causing energy. Thank you!"
Maybe Superman felt Gus was "from the streets" and that's why he suddenly adopted a cool manner of speaking??

I guess they'd struck up a rapport by then. Do you think Lester discussed the possibility of a high-five ? Where Supes breaks Gus' hand which we see in x-ray vision but then repairs the hand with some white finger beam ?

Where Supes breaks Gus' hand which we see in x-ray vision but then repairs the hand with some white finger beam ? I don't know. All I know is that when "super" man struggles mightily just to rollback a simple little rock trapping Gus, Gus says "thank you brother!" At first Superman looks down in abject shame and humiliation like he's thinking "I ain't cho' brother ya little freak.. I'm a just a white piece of cornbread from Kansas and I ain't got a bit of coolness" but then he warms to the fact that he is a new 'cool cat' since he and Gus get to chatting like bros and so he starts to ACT like it. That's why right after meeting with Gus, Superman actually grows a set of balls and proposes to Lana Lang. How he stopped himself from using his laser beams to fry that little kid who knocked over the cheese bowl to ruin his romantic moment with Lana is beyond me however. Bottom line: Superman finally became a MAN after he met Gus, whereas before he was sorta a wimp! Kinda sad that he somehow got castrated by Superman IV... I mean Lacey was all over Clark and he ACTIVELY tried to avoid her!!!! I think Clark showed more affection for Paul the trainer since he instinctively followed him like a submissive animal after being called "Clarkie". Too bad Gus wasn't around in SIV to keep Superman on the straight and narrow.

Too bad Gus wasn't around in SIV to keep Superman on the straight and narrow. I wish Lester had been properly interviewed/interrogated about II + III. Perhaps one day we'll get to see his fabled S3 blackface scene where Superman (just before he hits the bottle) has a rap contest with a stunned Pryor, but nobody says anything to him in case he burns them alive.

Imagine Cavill's Superman interacting with Gus He'd torch him and with his scowly face make an awkward joke about it. In the Snyderverse glowing heat vision eyes take the place of acting in 50 percent of the material.
