Mythology Gag | |
| Superman Unbound / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Why does the shot of Superman holding the helicopter in one hand look familiar? And so does the Fortress of Solitude. The post-Infinite Crisis comics follow this. Superman is finally able to fully tell Brainiac to "Go to hell." In a blink-and-miss scene, Superman stabs Brainiac with two electrical cords just like he did in the Smallville episode "Arctic". Superman fought a large white space monkey. Kara wears a brunette wig and glasses like in Superman: The Animated Series. She briefly dons this disguise in the comics. Likewise, Dan Turpin appears briefly in the scene where the terrorists take Lois hostage, looking like he did in S: TAS. Jimmy Olsen wears a bowtie. Brainiac's sentries all have the "three connected dots" logo he used in the DC Animated Universe. Lois informs Clark that Perry White's son, Keith had a baby, referring to Keith Robert White, a young black orphan who appeared in the comics during the 90s that Perry and his wife eventually adopted. | |

Thou Shalt Not Kill: Played with in some of the exchanges between Superman and Supergirl, with the latter strongly implying she's willing to use her powers to kill if necessary. (Later, when we hear of her taking on Somali warlords, it is taken as read that she isn't necessarily letting the bad guys walk away.) Early on, we even get this gem from one of the kidnappers as Kara prepares to use her Eye Beams on his face: | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: Superman's first fight with Brainiac does not go well for him. The cyborg pulls a No-Sell on Superman's attempts to punch him, before doing a Punch Catch, crushing Superman's fist, and nearly knocking him unconscious with a single punch to the face, after which he just restrains him with Combat Tentacles. | |

Adaptational Ugliness: Brainiac in the original story basically looked like a really buff and tall human with green skin and some implants in his head. In the movie, he's an inhumanly large and menacing hulk with creepy cybernetic eyes and more obvious cybernetics along his body, along with generally much broader and more thuggish facial features. | |

Body Horror | |
| Superman Unbound / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: The entire opening credits sequence is comprised of various enhancements Brainiac does to his (formerly) frail body...which includes locking himself in a cocoon, replacing his eyes with a cybernetic set (as below in Eye Scream) as well as jacking himself up with steroids (or some sort of muscle-enhancing alien solution) to give him a physical edge, which would be useful against Superman later. By the time of his defeat, the transformation is so deep that his skeleton is revealed to be metallic. | |

Adaptation Distillation: Unlike the comics where the bottled city of Kandor is kept by Superman because he could not restore it to full size, the end of the film sees Kandor restored on a new worldnote probably because Metropolis was also bottled and restored in the film and the writers would have otherwise had to explain why one city could be restored and the other one left out. | |

Adaptational Badass: In the comics, Superman stomping Brainiac's face into the mud was how he was defeated. In this film, Brainiac gets up from that and gives Superman a more lengthy brawl before going down. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Superman Unbound / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In addition to some other similarities to the Reapers, Brainiac at one point tells Superman "You exist because I allowed you to be", much like Sovereign's "You exist because we allow it". Brainiac being defeated by removing him from his hermetically-sealed ship is a nod to The War of the Worlds. When Superman is fighting one of Brainiac's robots at the beginning of the film, he quickly realizes it's sending out a homing signal. He disconnects it while shouting ''No phoning home!" Brainiac's ship approaching over Metropolis includes a nod to Independence Day. and of course Superman saying "Welcome to Earth." A news cameraman in Metropolis is wearing a baseball cap in the colors of Scooby-Doo's Mystery Machine (as Warner Bros. are also the current producers of that franchise). | |

Casual Danger Dialogue | |
| Superman Unbound / int_df41acb | comment |
Casual Danger Dialogue: Lois has a constant line of snark for her hostage takers in the opening. The terrorist leader gives as good as he gets, for the most part. | |

Never Grew Up | |
| Superman Unbound / int_e1896cff | comment |
Never Grew Up: The people of Kandor (and the other cities) haven't aged since they've been taken. The shielding may have stunted their growth. After being free, they likely can age normally. | |

Sensory Overload | |
| Superman Unbound / int_fec81854 | comment |
Sensory Overload: Superman drags Brainiac out of his ship and into a swamp on Earth. Brainiac is suddenly bombarded by sights, smells, and sounds of a living world he has no control over and it proves to be too much for him. | |
