It’s not PC to talk about the “American Way” anymore.
If I recall correctly, they deleted the “American Way” line from the most recent Superman movies. Hollywood idiots are so PC they couldn’t stomach that being in there.
And that’s why today’s Hollywood can’t make a good “Superman” movie.
The character doesn’t work if he’s portrayed as morally ambiguous. That’s why there was such an outcry over the way he dealt with his antagonist in “Man of Steel”. The audience reacted negatively because his actions weren’t true to his character.
But the director wanted to be edgy.
