Not saying it's just about the footage he's using, it's the meaning when put together. See, for the most part, it's showing that Superman is better than us. When really he's as human as anyone. This showing of him as powerful comes off as very egotistical and that isn't who he is at the end of the day. Hell, they use footage of Lex proving the point wrongly and saying that Clark was better than everyone else. Which one thing i'll give to Smallville, making that the villain's point about Superman was a good detail.

See this line has everything summed up about him. Because really Clark Kent isn't the disguise. It's not the progression of an alien stranger who is all powerful to eventually fit in among our humble ranks. It's just a man confused by his gifts wishing to inspire with what we have gifted him. Not superpowers, kindness.
