MustacheGate is Superman's new Kryptonite.
had a lot of fun with the idea on social media, in response to the chatter.
But now "Justice League" is out, and many fans (including some who were probably looking for issues, knowing Cavill's mustache was a factor) were thrown by the result:
This is really disturbing. The CGI reshoots of Henry Cavill as Superman in #JusticeLeague make him look like human Shrek. pic.twitter.com/jM9kSuVDKn

I don't understand the complaints. The cgi removal of Henry Cavill's mustache is barely noticeable. pic.twitter.com/nKoUrqj6y8

I've been thinking about this too much, but this is all I've been thinking about.

At one point in justice league, Wonder Woman goes over towards Batman all flirty to start nursing his wounds, and the girl in the theater next to me loudly went "oh no"

After seeing a twitter review, I am tempted to watch Justice League just to see how the digitally erased mustache on Henry Cavill looked like. ??
