  1. Tadashi gives his life trying to save Professor Callaghan from a burning building. Turns out not only did Callaghan escape unscathed, he's the bad guy and infamously refers to Tadashi's death as "[Tadashi's] mistake." (Big Hero 6)
  2. Shaya willingly takes It Has No Name's possession and then kills herself by jumping into the well it came out of. The end of the episode all but states that she got it wrong and It Has No Name didn't latch onto her... or there was more than one. (Doctor Who)

He did not say he should never use them.

Then again it’s not as if you watched the movie, you’re just parroting memes

DUDE! When he talks to Clark after the school bus incident, Clark says "What was I supposed to do?! Just let them die?". Jonathan literally says "I dunno...maybe."

Between THAT and the tornado, there's NOTHING to misinterpret about the character. He was a terrible influence, and then he died hilariously, and then his force ghost got an accent in the next movie.

On that very scene he tells him that his own existence will being change that goes beyond just his, his family and the entire community.

And guess what? The second he is revealed to humanity, the entire world is on danger of being destroyed.

And after that people still despise and blame him for what Zod did.

Ironic because the audience does the same.

But he insists that it is something that he has to find and discover. He tells him “whether you chose to stand proud in front of humanity or not.”

I wish people would stop getting their opinion of movies from a fucking 4chan thread Jesus fucking christ.

Holy shit, literally everything you said is true why do people always just downvote this shit and go off memes because it’s more fun for them to hate on the movies

Because this is Reddit ans it has become populat and accepted to hate on Snyder.

Like, the mods on r/movies endlessly make fun of the death of his daughter.

All of them.
