   Any movie or TV series set on or around Earth will of course use the   
   same famous logos ... but that doesn't mean they're actually in the   
   same movie universe. Superman is set on Earth, but is obviously a   
   totally separate movie universe from a true life movie.   
      
   Trying to nitpick tiny details like logos is extremely silly and   
   pointless. The original article's author is a moronic nerd who needs to   
   find something sensible and useful to do with their time.
