Official New Superman Returns Pictures

[dark_b]

yeah hes neck looks very good here. it is not so big like from reeve but it is good enough.

[The Kid]

I've always thought he had a big enough neck, but knew His ears and the tight neckline weakened it visually like some weird illusion. His whole face is an illusion... one minute superman, next minute superboy, next minute supermodel... goodness...

[0neDisturbedSOB]

That's seriously one of the best movie posters I've ever seen.

[TNC9852002]

Yeah,...pretty decent.. :up:

so lex wears a wig, marries the old lady, kills her and takes over her fortune? luthor, you poisonous snake.

[DorkyFresh]

i'm still holding my ground against the whole "religious symbolism" theory. i don't think they MEANT to make Superman look like a religious figure of any kind....i think they were just trying to give Superman a very powerful (and equally graceful) pose and that pose is used quite a bit in comic books.

i'll agree Supes' pose is REMINISCENT of religious poses, but i don't think they put Supes in that pose with the intent on making Supes look like a religious figure.

I completely disagree. Yeah, there are some small things that to me stand out, but overall, the suit looks incredible... ESPECIALLY in this shot.

On purpose or not, that is what Superman is. He's looked on as a christ figure. Its in Smallville, even in that frist episode and greatly in STM. "Live as one of them, Kal-El, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you... my only son."

There I say more....

[Eros]

Now Neo is a messiah figure, Superman is just cool superhero.

[Metropolis_Man]

A poster of Supes flying after the plane would've been cool, if they went the Batman Begins route with so many posters.

[Superman \S/]

What we have of this poster is awesome, and who knows what we'll get with the next poster.

[gdw]

Kevin:

good argument... way to support it with visuals... i'll give you a 92/100..... B+


Ha ha, that's an A here, suckers. Wait a minute, how in the hell is a 92 a B???

When do the A's start?

In Canada it's 50-59=D 60-69=C 70-79=B and 80-100=A

Don't forget that Richard Donner even went as far as turning baby Kal-El's space ship into a star, and quoting directly from the Bible (!) "The son becomes the fatherm and the father....,the sun."

[dark_b]

like you hehehehhehe

[Masut]

Pretty sure it's not a rubber cape. But overall I'm happy with how the suit looks now. Very pleased and can't wait to see the whole movie and how the colours of the suit will look on the actual bigscreen

haha... in high school i remember 93-100 was an A and in college 90-100 was an A... but maybe i'm mixing those up.

[D'Artagnan]

once again....i'm only talking about THIS movie.

Yes, and once again, it only exists because of Singer's love for the past movie. It's his love letter to the 1978 movie the way Peter Jackson's King Kong was to the original.

[DorkyFresh]

yes...i know that.......but just because Donner purposefully included subtle religious references doesn't mean that Singer is doing it on purpose also. that's all i'm saying...

...which is why i'm discussing THIS movie only.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Anyone know what happened to the Topps card scan thread?

[DorkyFresh]

it probably got merged with this one...

How can you discuss this movie without discussing it's influences? Does that mean you won't talk about the comicbook either?

[DorkyFresh]

How can you discuss this movie without discussing it's influences? Does that mean you won't talk about the comicbook either?
i can talk about this movie while talking about influences and leaving religion out of it.

as i said, Singer was influenced by Donner and Donner put religious references in his movie...but that doesn't mean Singer is intentionally putting religious references in HIS film. if you can't get that then i'm sorry...but that's all i have to say concerning Singer putting religious undertones in Superman Returns.

i'll discuss Superman Returns and it's influences from the original movie, but i will not discuss Superman Returns and religious influence because i don't see any. not to mention, i like to keep religion out of it because anytime somoene brings in religion...things tend to get ugly.

Uhh...this is totally off topic but does anyone here have a link to the pic of Superman backhand-*****slapping Wonder Woman?

[Lightning54SC]

change the direction of his hair and lose the s on the belt and then were golden.... SINGER if your reading this hint hint for the next movie :up:

[DorkyFresh]

i'm thinkin' his hair might not be as stylizable as Reeve's was. i have thick stubborn hair and it's hard to style so i'm guessing that's Brandon's problem also. i guess they couldn't make his hair look good when trying to comb his hair the other way from his natural part.

[Mr. Thing]

I have really thick hair too. It's a bastard. But I have a double parting, so yeah, I'm cool.

[millennium movies]

Has anyone considered something? From the card where he's about to go change into the closet, while looking at it i remembered that there was a scene similar to it in S-M2. So far the closet scene and the shirt rip have been riped off from Superman by one of Marvel's heros. Frankly i was really pissed that they used the shirt rip in S-M1 and trying to pass it off as they own. Anyone else feel this way?

I bet if they use it in S-M3 , there's going to be some confrontation and i hope WB better step in and claim their trademarks!

[The Kid]

http://www.alteregocomics.com/store/files/images/large/d_2614.jpg
Someone said this was similar to when Mary held Jesus' dying body once in the bible...

And yeah, I agree. WB should sue for that rip-off. :spidey:

[DorkyFresh]

another example of people looking for things that aren't there. if someone is lying down on the floor and you want to support their head....that's the natural position for doing it. i'm sure many people have made those poses in real life without even noticing it and i'm sure many people formed those poses even BEFORE Jesus was crucified. in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon...Chow Yun Fat's character (Li Mu Bai) is lying down at the end of the movie and Michelle Yeoh has to hold his head. i'm sure they were in the same position but that doesn't mean that was a reference to the bible...

here's another example of a similar pose...

Don't forget that Richard Donner even went as far as turning baby Kal-El's space ship into a star, and quoting directly from the Bible (!) "The son becomes the fatherm and the father....,the sun."

I for one never disputed that. Of course we all know about the religious metaphors.

The funny thing is the debate was about whether or not the new poster exhibited the religious overtones that we all know are present in the movie/movies.

:O

[lujho]

Pretty sure it's not a rubber cape. But overall I'm happy with how the suit looks now. Very pleased and can't wait to see the whole movie and how the colours of the suit will look on the actual bigscreen

Uh, yeah, it definitely IS a rubber cape. Wool and latex (same materials as the Michael Keaton Batman capes, actually) - wool on the inner side and textured latex on the outside.

[DorkyFresh]

The shirt-rip in Spidey was a homage to Superman, not a steal. Erik Larsen did it in the comics all the time.

trust me.. i know him quite well.

[Showtime]

Wow, condescending much?

Nah, you're reading into it.

[Superman \S/]

Hehe.

[millennium movies]

Kevin, well i believe you that it was an homage. In that case its ok for the first movie, but what about using it in the second one? They also made use of it in the trailer for SM2. Now what if they use it also in SM3, will that still be considered homage? Specialy now that Superman has returned?

[The Kid]

what sickens me (not really, but it does make me go wtf) is that kids will think that superman is just ripping off of spider-man when they see it in his new movie.

oh... well...

[chi-boy]

what sickens me (not really, but it does make me go wtf) is that kids will think that superman is just ripping off of spider-man when they see it in his new movie.

oh... well...

no they won't. the suit rip is well associated with supermen to this day.

[The Kid]

But won't kids who are unaware that it's supposed to be superman's thing, think it is a homage or whatever to spider-man whether it's meant to be or not?

[millennium movies]

For the older generation and most older teens. But the new generation are the ones growing up with Teen Titans and kung fu bugs bunny...so they wont associate it with superman

[The Kid]

It's our job to preserve the true history of the shirt rip for future generations.

[Nivek]

Well, did we get the phone booth gag in Superman: The Movie? Concidering in 1978 that was already 20 years old cliche, it clicked all the right buttons.

[The Kid]

depends.... you know, if we have an understanding of the history the the gag definitely worked. Personally for me... maybe its because Im so young, I don't know... I never got the gag until recently...

DB that sun shot is from after the plane scene..its in the book.

:up:

[Kevin Roegele]

It makes sense that Superman doesn't get Lois straight away - it sets it up for sequels, the audience will keep coming back to see them together. The same way the Spider-Man movies have been done - it's as much about whether Peter and MJ will get together as it is about Spider-Man himself.

Of Course they will, many of them know it is Their DESTINY to be together. Besides The kid is Superman's kid theirfore . They will end up together in the future . :supes:

That it does my friend.. i'm liking what i see with Routh more and more, The latest Tv spot for instance.. his acting looks very good.

:up:

"Will we see you around?"

"I'm always around"

[Showtime]

First of all Metropolisman, what the heck are you doing up this early?

Robo, that scene where he is gliding in front of the sun is from the plane scene? It seems that he is just gliding upward and not in any kind of rush to catch the plane.

[Milkman95]

Routh will be fine, he looks good.

Remember, Bryan Singer is more than capable when it comes to casting.....

it is..its after he saves the plane.

:up:

because he wants to read my script.. still awaiting his e-mail addy.

[Metropolis_Man]

I do agree with that statement Milkman, Singer has a good eye for casting people. I think he got the right person when he decided on Routh.

[dark_b]

singer said many times that when he casts a guy he must to know hes history. they talked for hours. and it looks like that routh has teh personality for superman.

is he a good actor? i dont think so, he is a beginnger. but will he act good in SR? he will act incredible.

remember: there are no bad actors there are only bad directors :D

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

That it is..and its not supprising to see how many people are enjoying the look of the movie now.

:up:

[Metropolis_Man]

I'm glad. I really think seeing things in action will really help this movie out and bring people to see it.

i think its great..for people who do not have the internet..they don't know all the details..of what we know..so it doesn't spoil anything for them..


I am beginning to think this movie is going to fly big time.

Haha, what if he had his own little minature suit and he helped Supes out to save the day.............WROOOOOOOOOOOONG

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Ah!!!

it's an early shot of Jason from Superman Returns 2!

That suit doesn't look very piano-chucking friendly. Too loose, might get a sleeve or something caught on a piano leg and next thing you know little Jason has THROWN HIMSELF! :(

You can see the \S/ on his boot in that shot.

[Super Kal]

oh my god... you can.

[Saint]

another example of people looking for things that aren't there. if someone is lying down on the floor and you want to support their head....that's the natural position for doing it. i'm sure many people have made those poses in real life without even noticing it and i'm sure many people formed those poses even BEFORE Jesus was crucified. in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon...Chow Yun Fat's character (Li Mu Bai) is lying down at the end of the movie and Michelle Yeoh has to hold his head. i'm sure they were in the same position but that doesn't mean that was a reference to the bible...

here's another example of a similar pose...
http://www.meganandjack.com/mt/archives/spermandies.jpg
Ha, that's a manip. Batman wasn't there when Superman died.

i think they look good because this pic was takken on the set wit hwires. so it looks mroe professional . of course teh bad background destroys everything.

first i thought that they were standing and they just maniped the legs. but you can see that the legs are no changed.

We need larger versions of those posters (most likely official versions) to see them as they are.

It's called lighting. Routh only looks good in top-down lighting because the shadows make his jaw look more masculine. When you see his face in normal lighting, he looks like a little kid. He also doens't have real sideburns (another immature like feature), only a tuft of hair in front of his right ear but not his left in all pictures. That's so wierd.

He also looks like a wuss because his hairstylists suck and pasted his hair to his head so that he looks like a geek. There is no rule that Superman's hair has to be slicked down. Superman has natural hair in the comics. They should have just let Routh use his natural hair as Superman.

The trailers and images like this have convinced me that such a thick shield was a mistake. While it should certainly be raised, I think it should have been a thin, flexible plastic instead of the sculpted block they used. Thinner, more flexible material would have looked more in-line with the rest of the suit.
