Gunn cleverly knows what he's doing. He has broken bones, when they heal, it hurts.
But that's the thing. Even in the comics when Superman had a broken arm or metal piercing his body, he would heal and not show any pain.
Superman even regrew an entire hand after Luthor tried to infect him with green kryptonite nanobots, without showing any pain.
Do you know when he felt pain? When his body had absorbed too much energy from radiation, and then when exposed to sunlight his body would forcefully remove the toxic radiation.
Even in Superman and Lois, when Superman powers are drained by Ally and he needs to jump start them by being thrown into the sun. We see that Superman was in terrible pain only at first because his skin was actually burning, but as his cells returned to normal the pain was gone his healing factor was working again.
That's following the comics and not what Gunn is doing.
He could have remnants of Kryptonite in his system that is being burned out of him, even if we don't see it.
Thank you for showing you also don't know that much about the character. When Superman was infected with a green kryptonite cancer, his whole skin turned green and he was weak and in pain, but as soon as John Irons gives him the equivalent to amped sunlight, he was again fine. No pain in the recovery.
Both he and Kara have said it in the comics multiple times, that unfiltered sunlight makes their bodies less vulnerable to kryptonite, because it nullifies the radiation faster in a painless way.
So, again. James Gunn doesn't enough about the character. Not to mention the whole scene is dumb for the reasons I've already pointed out.
Add to that Gunn and the whole cast poor performance at CinemaCon, and you should be very worried.
Gunn even said he was very happy to be at ComicCon, TWICE! When it was at CinemaCon. And then he went on ramblings that had almost nothing to do with the movie.
Superman vs Super Son: DC Finally Settles Who’s Stronger, Clark Kent or Jon Kent?

You mean the famous Recovery Suit. And no, he was not "basically a normal human" because like I pointed out he tanked a full power heat vision from Jon and it did almost nothing.
And Jon if you well , at the end of Dark Crisis, he was fighting Anti-Life Darkseid, Doomsday, Neron and Ares. So, Jon isn't weak. He simply isn't as powerful as Superman.
Even all the hype that DC tried to sell about his energy powers, didn't matter at all because not only the Phaelosian (Kryptonian) adopted twins Osul-Ra and Othol-Ra can use energy powers and even shape that energy into weapons, but Superman himself showed he can use that energy manipulation as well.
And so, even the one thing that was supposed to make Jon different and better, was shown being better used by the adopted twins of Clark and Lois but also Superman himself.
Even now in the Secret Six comics, things that Jon could've and should've used his energy powers on, weren't used at all. Because when Superman went through those powers back in 1998, he eventually learned to use them to even fight magic and other bothersome powers.
It's like DC just doesn't know what to do with Jon. To the point that the whole Dragon Ball talk of Jon having more potential than his father just because he was human, was slowly but eventually dropped altogether.
Superman vs Super Son: DC Finally Settles Who’s Stronger, Clark Kent or Jon Kent?
Actually this was not the only thing that proves that Superman is far more powerful than his son (Jon).
In Absolute Power when Jon was already a cyborg being controlled by Brainiac Queen, when he breaks into the Fortress of Solitude. Superman that just had surgery and was still recovering from the power drain, takes a full power heat vision blast from Jon and it does nothing to him, except stun him a little bit. And Jon wasn't holding back one bit.
As for Jon growing out of his weakness to kryptonite or becoming more resistant to it. If we go by what Future Frontier showed, not only will Jon never become less vulnerable to kryptonite, not only will red sunlight actually become fatal to him seeing Solaris high dose of red solar energy starts destroying Jon's cells, but when Jon is apparently already dead his half-brother Pyrrhos is quite alive and a huge problem to the descendants of Jon and Kara.
However when a then older looking Superman shows up, not only does he takes down Pyrrhos with one single backhand slap, but Pyrrhos magic doesn't do anything to Superman. The same magic that easily took down Kara Zor-El.
That older Superman saying he had returned from fighting a huge threat in another dimension. Revealing he had been away for centuries, fighting.
Superman Extended Trailer Reveals First Look Inside The Fortress of Solitude, Krypto Jumping On An Injured Man Of Steel And Automatons Healing Superman
I'm starting to believe the rumors of the bad screen testings more and more.
So, the robot says they have no consciousness, but they give gender to a genderless machine, that acts all happy when it sees that Superman looks at it.
Funny how for something that doesn't have consciousness, it sure acted like it had one.
And then, all that Kryptonian advanced technology and what do they use to heal Superman… The equivalent to several magnifying lenses to focus the sunlight.
But the bad scenes don't stop there. Seeing what should've brought comfort to Superman, brings him pain. Which is nonsense seeing even when Superman gets heavily dosed with kryptonite, receiving extra sunlight doesn't hurt him but instead invigorates him.
Even the Fortress should have like a fusion reactor and the recovery of Superman, would've been the robots redirecting energy from the reator to Superman, giving him the equivalent to a miniature sundipping effect.
Gunn clearly doesn't know what he's doing. He's clearly focusing not even on Kingdom Come Superman, but the old Bronze Age Superman. Where things like magnifying lenses were something he used to get solar boosts.
Dragon Ball Staff Finally Breaks Silence on Daima's Tie to Jiren, Universe 11
Seeing Daima goes against DBZ and DBS then there's no chance there will ever be a mention of a connection between Gomah and Jiren. Plus, Jiren isn't even a demon.
If they followed Toriyama design then that only means that Toriyama was being is old lazy self. And if you doubt that, then look at how Gohan achieved Super Saiyan 2 together with his clothes and looks, and then compare it to how he reached Beast together with his clothes and looks. And you'll see an almost perfect copy page by page.
And then of course there's the conflict with DBZ and DBS.
In Daima you see Piccolo say he'll talk to all the Namekian nomads that are without a home ever since Frieza destroyed planet Namek. But in DBZ and DBS we see that Namekians already have a planet and they're not nomads.
And of course we have Bulma, that at the end of DBZ we see Goku notice how she was getting older. But in Daima she buys all the rejuvenation bugs and in DBS she's using the dragon balls to take years off her age.
But the biggest bombshell of them all, is the fact that Goku tells Vegeta at the end of Daima that he already knew about the Super Saiyan 4, because he had been training to sur Super Saiyan 3 after fighting Buu. He simply wasn't sure he could use it at the time, which made sense seeing when Vegeta becomes an adult again he states he could use his power better and even his SSj3 was almost enough to end 3rd Eye Gomah, if not for the Evil Eye regenerative and amplifying powers.
So Goku in Daima, itted to something he definitely doesn't have in DBS. Something shown he doesn't have in DBS. And DBS is apparently coming back in April, and that's the actual canonical timeline.
But go on and pretend Daima is canonical. Let's also pretend that poster that showed GT after Super is also accurate, despite the Super Saiyan 4 transformation in Daima being completely different from the one in GT.
Why Couldn't Yoda Beat Palpatine? It Had Nothing to Do With the Force
That's not what happened. At least not in the book of the movie.
What Yoda realized during his fight with Sidious, was that the Jedi lost the war before it even began. That they had failed to evolve to the times, mostly due to his part, and how even if he won that day the Republic was done all the same.
He saw two things:
1. That he couldn't defeat Sidious.
2. And that if he died there the Jedi Order would truly be gone.
So he chose to leave seeing there was no possible victory. The Republic he had spent most of his life defending was gone, and it wasn't coming back.
He saw what Qui-Gon Jinn had already seen decades before. Seeing Jinn was quite vocal about the mistake it was to have the Jedi Order centered on Coruscant.
Jinn believed that only a few masters should stay in the temple on Coruscant while the initiates, Padawans, and Knights would be spread out throughout the other abandoned temples.
He argued for that, because he saw that growing on Coruscant the Padawans were oblivious to the realities of the galaxy and how most worlds were not like Coruscant. Also that served to spread them out instead of gathering them all in one spot where their enemies could take them out.
