Director Richard Donner’s Superman: The Movie, which premiered in 1978, is a classic piece of cinema that continues to shape the superhero genre today. Most recently, it led the way for writer-director James Gunn to release Superman, a more modern imagining of the Man of Steel’s adventures, with David Corenswet portraying the titular hero.

James Gunn's Superman has experienced some backlash from right-wing commentators, but it seems as if Gunn saw this coming and put a response in the film itself.

Now that Superman is finally back in theaters, it’s time to revisit his old adventures.
