Whilst browsing the vast expanses of the internet, I came across this article via the Superman Homepage (http://www.supermanhomepage.com/news.php) in which a multitude of Frequently Asked Questions are answered! Due to the criticism this film has been receiving, I thought it would be good to put at least some of these doubts to rest.
The article itself goes in depth to address and hopefully answer a large amount of trivia and issues with 'Man Of Steel', containing some key issues, including:

Q: One of the pods aboard the Kryptonian scoutship on Earth was open and empty. Does that mean there was a survivor who lived on Earth?




Q: Why would the Kryptonians want to change Earth into Krypton? Wouldn't that negate some of the superpowers Earth's atmosphere and lighter gravity gives them?




Q: Where did the Superman costume come from? Wasn't that scout ship on Earth for thousands of years?




Q: Why did Superman kill Zod? Couldn't he have done something else? Did that family Zod was going to kill survive?




All of the above are addressed, along with a variety of different queries and questions about the film. It is also worth noting that this article is 'a continual work in progress', so if you still have any doubts, you are able to contact and ask your own questions!

Enjoy guys, stay super!

the superman costume is just a case of poor writing because it just doesn't make sense.

its like they knew 18,000 years ago that kal-el would come to earth & become superman.

BULLSHIT!

The Superman costume has the symbol of the house of El. Couldn't the Jor-El hologram manufacture one on the ship before the reveal? Its just a generic Kryptonian suit with the hope symbol on it.

Here is an interesting perspective if you will on the suit....keep an open mind.

Perhaps Kryptons time is different from Earths time. Perhaps because of where Krypton is located perhaps one day on Krypton is equal to a thousand years according to the measurement of this earth??

Think of the possibilities.

Honestly, the suit didn't bother me.

There are 100's of possibilities as to the how and why it got there, so many, and all of them irrelevant to the story.

Did the audience really need a scene, where Jor-El instructs the ship to make it, or explains where it came from? It wouldn't have moved the story forward at all.

Also people seem to have this random idea that the Superman suit was on the ship? No it wasn't, it was a suit, which when Clark wears it becomes the Superman suit. People only see it as a coincidence that the suit, just so happens to Superman's because they know what it is.

Zod wanted to turn Earth into krypton because he didn't care about power or rule, all he cared about was the survival of his people. Once Superman destroys the world engine, Zod then decides all that is left for him to due is to destroy the human race.

All questions can be answered by reading the novelization (as is always the case with a CBM). Get off your derriers and READ, people! You won't have to be so annoying then. It's a win-win!

The suit was there and it is mentioned in the movie. JorEl tells Kal that the \s/ stands for hope, not El. And many of the Kryptonians on scout ships wore that costume, you can even see them wear it in the hologram when JorEl is talking. Yes it is a coincidence that the House of El took the \S/ but again it makes sense. It'd be liken to finding a New York Yankees cap or Dallas Cowboys hat or a jersey with 23 on it.
