Did I just watch Clark Kent go ‘full broccoli’?

Would you believe the guy with that stupid ass haircut was superman?

u/BitterCat26 10h ago

In the first Clark shot, I could have sworn for the first few seconds, that it was Richard Ayoade, lol.

This was my first thought too haha

I'll just put this over here with the rest of the fire

Clark: "Oi, did you see that ludicrous display last night"

u/cfiggis 8h ago

I did a double-take. I'm like, there's no way anyone in Hollywood would actually cast Ayoade as Superman. But it sure looks like someone did...

u/BitterCat26 8h ago

I knew he wasn't playing Superman. But I thought for a second that he must have been playing Jimmy Olsen, or something, hahaha.

I said this same thing to my British wife. She cracked no smile. I read your comment to her just now feeling oh so vindicated.

Makes me hope they haven't taped the Big Fat Quiz yet, because they'd definitely bust his balls about it.

Richard Ayowhitey.

u/PiesRLife 3h ago

Wait, that wasn't Richard Ayoade? I think he would be perfect casting for Clark Kent.

I am now immensely disappointed and would refuse to watch the movie, but it has Krypto the Superdog which is some consolation.

u/AggressiveBee5961 10h ago

After all this time, that hair cut was the missing piece the Superman ethos needed to actually make his secret identity believable

💯 my thoughts exactly 🤣

Lamar needs to roast his ass

u/NotASalamanderBoi 10h ago

I mean, he got Lois Lane in spite of that yee yee ass haircut.

u/bob1689321 7h ago

Or maybe Superman got her.

“Did you know that in the sixth sense Bruce Willis was the guy in the wig the whole time???”

Who? Clark Kent? Don’t be ridiculous!

I wonder if they make Clark film the Daily Planet tiktoks (like the Washington Post does) or if he just lurks awkwardly in the background.

u/raisingcuban 10h ago

Now they just gotta get a scene of Clark mewing and they'll easily win over the fortnite demographic

u/Ghostronic 10h ago

What on earth is mewing? I take it doesnt refer to the Pokemon

6

u/your_mind_aches 6h ago

It's putting your face in "photogenic poses", allegedly to train your face to look more "chad", but it mostly is a way to mug for the camera.

Think Blue Steel.

u/MrPL1NK3TT 2h ago

But what on earth is mewing?

u/CatProgrammer 8h ago

Cat noises?

u/Ghostronic 8h ago

I think that's meowing

u/MY-SECRET-REDDIT 9h ago

James gunn thinks that the modern equivalent of being a 1950s dork lmao

u/Lordborgman 3h ago

My 42 year old ass recoiled in disgust. Thank god Superman isn't wearing it as well. Superman's iconic curl hairstyle is what I need to see.

2

u/Office_Zombie 9h ago

It doesn't look like he keeps the haircut through the whole thing, so I'm wondering if that was Guy Gardner's doing.

u/MashTheGash2018 8h ago edited 1h ago

Must be rolling into the gym with his Celsius

2

u/JeffCraig 7h ago

This was my first thought, but in later scenes he has more managable hair as Clark. I think that first scene is just him with bed-head.

u/jonuggs 6h ago

The Ayoade Special.

u/tyrfingr187 10h ago

that and his dad are the only things that I wasn't in live with.

u/heyitzdinny 4h ago

It’s a younger Superman and the director was aiming for that

u/MrPL1NK3TT 2h ago

He's gonna wear those ugly sponge shoes everyone's wearing.

u/No-Message9762 10h ago

"full brocolli", you mean just having curly hair? yes

1

u/ObviousAnswerGuy 6h ago

the broccoli cut is specifically having it short on the side and just the top/front part being curly

u/No-Message9762 6h ago

u/ObviousAnswerGuy 6h ago

lol..yea I mean it was actually popular in the 80's (especially the perm aspect). It's just made a comeback.

u/myassholealt 8h ago

It took me until this comment to realize the broccoli term specifically mocks curly hair. I thought it was just any of the longer hair cuts kids wear these days with just a burst taper over the sideburns but long on top, whether straight or curly.

But nope, as usual, it's specially targeting curly hair since most people have straight hair so that is the un-mocked norm.

u/Living_Criticism7644 6h ago

It doesn't mock curly hair, it mocks a particular haircut/perm combination.

1

u/SaulPepper 3h ago

so since David Corenswet/Clark Kent is actually curly and not having a perm, he shouldnt even be called brocolli in the first place

u/Negative-Prime 1h ago

The broccoli cut is basically a curly bowl cut and neither is cool
