In the Comics this has more to do with the nature of the DCU, the "Godwave", and how it's supernatural nature has effected the cosmic community. Especially earth. However, Krypton is a world unlike any that could exist in the real cosmos. It's citizens possessed the greatest scientific understanding in the DCU yet they couldn't figure out a way to achieve escape velocity which, on that planet, was greater than that which could resist the pull of a neutron star.
It's the star's age, not the color, that transforms Kryptonian atoms as well as everything else from that world.

Just as unreal? A billionaire playboy as a masked vigilante with high tech weapons is entirely possible (if unlikely for various reasons). Less likely, bordering on unreal: that he can maintain a high degree of athleticism over many, many years. Virtually impossible: an alien that looks so human no one can tell the difference until the alien flexes his muscles, leaps and doesn't come down, or stares at something and it bursts into flames.
Perhaps I should have said: Batman requires far less suspension of disbelief.

I guess I see it different. I go to see movies to escape the boring aspects of life, work/bills/responsibilities. So for me I don't have a problem trying to believe or not believe movies. They are movies, thats why we have them, they can do the impossible and make it look real.
We I see batman yea it looks cool and all the gadgets and weapons seem more real then say superman. But I really don't compare the two as far as realism..They both are not real and however they are both really cool movies.

Especially with what kind of surgical and medical care, nutrition, protein supplements, weight equipment, and all types of therapies, treatments and what have you that a billionaire would have access to. Being a physical beast despite years of trauma is so much more realistic than a billionaire putting himself through that....especially considering this isn't a sport, it's mortal combat. No one can come out on top of a life or death fight like an old man with experience, he'll find a way to take you out before you can say ow without even getting physical.

I was using it as a sig. Couldn't make it a sig because it was 2.6 megabytes.
So I finally got tired of posting it and got a normal sig.

I think why Superman landed so rough was because the Kryptonite was effecting his flight. He pretty much dropped from a very fast acceleration into a faster free-fall, losing his super strength his legs still broke the ground before his knees even buckled.

It kinda just shows the immense power he has, when he loses control of it and causes collateral damage. That's what I look forward to in Man of Steel during his fights with the Kryptonians.
