I could've forgiven the movie's shortcomings as a Superman movie if it at least had one really great feat. But it didn't.
It would have been something if he was already partially sucked in and then powered through, but he was far away from the pull, and if the pull was that deadly, Lois should have died. She seemed to feel nothing.
There's no proof that he could extend his bio-electric aura around her either ala All-Star Superman, so that explanation is out.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Kal was probably taking the brunt of the pull? I think Lois was simply protected by the plot, or rather you guys found a plothole? Shit like that happens all the time. So we see Clark who is undoubtedly superior to Lois struggle, and we're to believe the pull wasn't much because it didn't affect her?
I'm glad Superman is not Reeveman powerful. The character was ridiculous. i think the destruction of the world engine while getting gradually weak is a great feat. *shrug*
I wasn't hoping for Christopher Reeve levels either. (Wanted him to stay unsurpassed in all respects)
But seriously, fat George Reeves Superman would beat Henry Cavill --speed is about equal, both are faster than the eye can see and multiple mach flying, Strength is an utter stomp for Reeves as he casually lifted the Sphinx statue in Egypt with one arm, durability is in favor of Reeves by a lot as he tanked an atom bomb.
and Dean Cain Superman would utterly stomp him.
Dean Cain level would have been cool with me, but he was far below that.

But without the crushing gravity so why is it impressive? The reason why resisting a black hole is crazy is due to it's properties but this thing obviously lacked them so it's utterly worthless for comparison because as it stands, it's most impressive feat is pulling the top of damage Skyscrapers or something.
What? No one denied that it happened.
My gripe was just a personal one, they refer to it as a black hole then send a prison ship through it harmlessly.
