Woo thanks a lot for answering my comment about the Clark secret identity revealing possibility. Indeed I tried to put on the shoes of the police officer and no other shoes since I was giving my opinion from a single POW. However your answer gave me insight not only for the movie but to other everyday little thing we have to analyze in order to make a decision. All in all I really appreciate you taking time to answer my comment.
In response to the cop hearing Lois call Superman “Clark”, the filmmakers have said that they made the movie with the idea in mind that some people in Smallville know Clark has special powers. They’ve probably known for a while, given the mysterious miracles that happened when he was growing up (for example: the school bus coming up out of the water after running off the bridge). Lois Lane and Martha Kent aren’t Clark’s only secret keepers.
I like your approach to look at “Man Of Steel” with positivity. So refreshing.
In retrospect, it sure gives new weight to the end of BvS, where a considerable chunk of Smallville’s population comes to Clark’s funeral. A lot of them seem to be in Clark’s age-range, wanna bet that they were the kids on that fateful bus ride? (One thing I really don’t like about MoS is that they made Lana a brunette, and now I can’t pick the adult woman out of a line :P)
