I don't think Man of Steel did that. Beyond that moment when Cavil looks up and is about to smash the gravity engine's core and he kind of transforms into Christopher Reeve... which they said later on was not intentional at all.
And every time I hear a filmmaker say, "Superman: The Motion Picture is the definitive Superman movie and the best we can hope to do now is be like 1% as good as that movie!" I want to puke. Christopher Reeve is fine in it, Luthor is an idiot and intentionally surrounds himself with morons, it's campy and goofy and it's BORING. Superman II was a little better in that it had credible villains, at least.
