So the 'main plot' of the movie lasts only about 20 minutes..


The Good Clark Kent/ Bad Superman arc that everyone considers the plot of this movie, is a 15-16 minute story arc that takes place over an hour into the movie..

Huh..

That's more of a subplot. The real plot is Superman stopping the Websters.

It's what some people mistakenly believe is the main plot, like whoever wrote the one-line plot synopsis at the top of the movie's main page.

"Everyone"?


Most of those who have seen this film realize that the "main plot" is about Gus Gorman and The Websters.

Considering I didn't even remember that part of the movie, I am going to go ahead and say stopping the old white guy and his computer was the main plot of the movie.

How is it you remember the main plot of the movie but don't remember evil Superman and the junkyard fight?

It's more that the good Superman Vs. The bad Superman is the only good scene in the movie.

That's what a writer calls, a sub-plot.

Well Superman still has to resist urges here and there till the showdown in the canyon. So I think the arc is woven in and appears at more various points than just the junkyard scene.
