Thanks to Gunn’s movie, Superman is flying high again as people get excited for the character’s future big screen appearances, but that doesn’t mean the Big Blue Boy Scout has always had blue skies when it comes to his movies. Over the years, there have been a lot of things that have made Superman movies perhaps more complicated than they need to be and have even helped keep the hero off the big screen whil...
