Superman needs to be firmly planted in his comic book, trying to keep any sort of "realness" to it leaves all of Superman's best villains out of the picture.
True...but his entire story is one that simply wouldn't work in a Chris Nolan "real" universe. An alien from a now destroyed home world who gets his power from our yellow sun? A pared down Batman obviously can...though it too limits the enemies list...but Superman is simply far fetched and bigger than real life. The dude's hidden identity is achieved by placing on glasses...and the world's foremost investigative reporter who he world's with can't figure it out. Chris Nolan just said "WTF?!?"
That being said, I would like to see the franchise take a slightly different take on the character. Not so much darker, but more serious. I realize I've mentioned it once in the thread, but I was always a fan of the way Superman was portrayed in the Justice League animated series. He was clearly the Boy scout, but he was serious...like he constantly understood he had the weight of the world on his shoulders. He didn't walk around grinning at everyone like in Donner's universe...
