Superman presents a confusing and inconsistent blockbuster experience, marked by excessive characters and a disjointed tone. However, Krypto the superdog stands out as an engaging character. His unpredictable actions and rebellious behavior contrast sharply with previous portrayals. Following the film's release, notable increases in Google searches for dog adoption were recorded, including a 513% rise in general dog adoptions and a 300% rise in searches for schnauzer-type dogs. These trends may reflect viewers' desire for clarity and realism in dog ownership as depicted in the film.
Research by the dog training app Woofz has shown that Google searches for adopt a dog near me jumped 513% during Superman's opening weekend. Searches for rescue dog adoption near me rose by 163%, while adopt a puppy rose by 31%.
The dog Krypto is portrayed as scrappy and wild, not obeying commands and destroying equipment, which contrasts with previous depictions of the character.
Many potential reasons for increased dog adoption searches relate to viewers feeling confused by Superman's plot and needing a relatable character in Krypto.
Superman is one of the rare films to get dog ownership exactly right, presenting a representation of dogs that speaks to audiences more effectively than typical portrayals.
