Why would flying fast against earths rotation rewind time? Doesnt make any sense

it's capeshit

That isn't what happened. It was to show Superman was traveling so fast he was going back in time not that rotating the earth the opposite way would rewind time

Just turn of your brain its important this Superman is positive in nice saturated colors, smiles and always saves everyone.

there is a concrete relationship between relative velocity and the flow of time, so it's not as far fetched as you'd like to think.

It was a different time user, capeshit didnt take itself seriously, you could just have fun

Yeah it actually is important that Superman acts like Superman

How do you know?

Have you tried it? How do you know?

Listen to the intro again, Jor El tells him about how they can time travel but it's forbidden.
It's actually a pretty good character moment seeing superman break and do the one thing he was forbidden to do to save his onitis.

Why is his rib cage sticking out?

Wait til you see the sequel when his back sticks out.

I've been told traveling faster than light turns back time. Even then, it's a paradox but definitely not as retarded as spinning the Earth backwards, as most people seem to believe.

what would be the effects on the earth if it spinner backward anyways?

Most people don't see it that way.

>there is a concrete relationship between relative velocity and the flow of time

While this is true, Superman was flying forwards which kind of works against any scientific explanation.

how does one fly backwards? like that toast man from ren & stimpy?

The sun woul set on tge east

Most people are fucking stupid then

It would just fuck the weather patterns and change climates all over the place. If it stopped spinning it would fuck everything cuz magnets.

Reeve was the best, desu. Even physically he looks the most aesthetic. Superman is strong due to yellow sun doing magic on kryptonian biochemistry so it makes sense he'd be strong as fuck without being jacked

Fucking magnets, how do they work?

Imagine him flying forwards, then imagine him keeping the same pose / orientation, but moving in the opposite direction. Feet first, so to speak.

>Most people
citation on this claim

That isn't important. In this case the intent is what matters

Imagine flying into the sunrise with the velocity the earths rotation, you would always stay in the same time, however if you go faster, you could go back in time. That's why people have jet-lag, their body can't handle the time.

I'm 28 and I always thought he was turning the world backwards

He would have accomplished the same thing if he flew away from earth really fast.

the earth went backwards as a visual cue that time was reversing.

>if you go fast enough you'll travel backwards in time

This and the original Superman, not this one from Snyder or the current comics
Reeve's Superman could travel back in time, travel through space without ships, move planets
Most people do not understand this
Yes, today's Superman sucks

This generation sense of wonder is dead, user

Traveling through space can take you through time, user. Last year my fiancee drove to West Virginia and when we got there it was 1939. People lived like retarded garbage, digging in holes in the dirt for primitive fuel no one wants, living off the government like 90 year olds. There was no education to speak of, and incest ran rampant. Time travel is terrifying.

How did u get back

Based Toastman reference poster.

>Yes, today's Superman sucks

This, but unironically.

...

I saw your dark souls webm, you fucking Sup Forums tourist

Not once I saw a goofy as fuck thing and thought it was FUN.
Dumb things are just dumb. They are fun only if ridiculed

lol just turn your brain off

heheh rewatched this yesterday
what a shit ending

>this generation
If you were 17 and reading comics in the 50s theu would literally beat the shit out of you

Any rational person viewed it as superman reversing the earth's rotation.

Forwards, not backwards you fucking idiot

When he says they called him mr. Glass, I wonder I that was the bully from his childhood.

Good job. You're wrong

It was the same as the slingshot maneuver from Star Trek.

Wow this explanation is so much more rational it completely changed my opinion of the movie. I remember watching it when I was a kid and I thought the ending ruined the picture. But Superman using his powers to fly faster than light and to time travel himself rather than somehow reversing the rotation of the earth is so much better. Thanks. I have to rewatched it now.
