Summary

This quote reflects the intention of the speaker, presumably a filmmaker, to create a new Superman movie while simultaneously honoring the established canon and mythology of the character. They suggest approaching the project with fresh eyes, as if no previous Superman movies had been made. However, they are mindful of the core elements, or "pillars," that define the character and are unwilling to violate them. In the pursuit of creativity, they express a desire to play with and push the boundaries of these established elements, providing a new perspective while still preserving the essence of Superman.

But although we have noticed the ark as being the first ship, we cannot with propriety place it in the front of the history of navigation. After the flood the ark seems to have been soon forgotten, or at least imperfectly remembered, and men reverted to their little canoes and clumsy boats, which sufficed for all their limited wants.
