[Superman \S/]

Damn, i love the last one.

[Lightning54SC]

the last one would make an awsome background for my desktop

[SuperDaniel]

Too the last one looks like it came from The Incredibles... :rolleyes: They shouldn`t try to make human faces. It doesn`t look real enough. Just paste the real face in a CGI body.

You can tell in the movie, but it isn't that bad, that is a photo so it doesn't really count.

[dark_b]

i must admit that in this pic it really looks like CGI but the shutle scene was amazing IMO. i really didnt know that it was a CGI brandon when i first saw the movie. the same wit hthe scene when he flys to richards house above metropolis.

are anymore interesting pics in the book?

p.s. has someone any scans from art of superman returns book?

[Super Kal]

i have 2, but they're both pretty old.

[dark_b]

i have 2, but they're both pretty old.well in november comes a new book from superman returns that will have new pics from the movie. the number of pics in teh book is woooooooow :wow:

[Super Kal]

I'm looking forward to it.

[millennium movies]

Why does he always have to touch up the damn head, neck and eyes of Routh and claim them as "scans". I would appreciate it if he cut the crap and stated he did manip them as well. I remember a little while ago he would'nt admit that he did manip a picture. He only stated it was the S shield, colors and that was it, but its way to obvious that he does more than he claims. Why can't he just post the original scans for those here who want to tweak to their own tastes and desire?

[Super Kal]

I feel the same way...

[ec86]

i must admit that in this pic it really looks like CGI but the shutle scene was amazing IMO. i really didnt know that it was a CGI brandon when i first saw the movie. the same wit hthe scene when he flys to richards house above metropolis.
:wow: I didn't know that as well. And in the movie you couldn't see it IMO. But the plane scene was so perfect, the music, the picture, everything was so :word:

[millennium movies]

Well kakarot, i think you guys should ask him that. From what i read on this page when he linked to that "scan" of Routh from the front, everyone just said a thank you note and that was it. You have to let the man know that you would like the original. He's a great artist but she should be kind enough if he does intend to post "scans" to post the real deal as well.

[Super Kal]

i have asked him in the past...

[millennium movies]

Then its kind of selfish...

[dark_b]

i am just thankfull that he posts teh scans. from where i come i can not buy this book.

[millennium movies]

Bootleg? In that picture above where he's flying above water he looks like one one those DBZ type of guys (hairdo). The scenes imo looked bad, the background looked so fake and way to pale, kinda like those projected background in the older movies.

[Super Kal]

this is why I say more vibrant colors should of been used in the first place to make environments and characters stand out more.

[h0metwnhero]

of course every one is entitled to their own opinion but i think the scenes looked amazing
they really nailed flight
though i never really understood superman flying in space.
its always puzzled me

[ProKrypto]

Cool shots, especially of the one posted by Dark-B. See, Brandon can play someone cunning or sinister... but not right now though. Wouldn't be good for him since he's Superman for the next 8-10 years.

Later.

[ProKrypto]

...never really understood Superman flying in space. It's always puzzled me

Really? Why? He can. In fact, didn't Superman ( Reeve )go to the Moon for some reason? Just curious.

Yeah he did in Superman IV.......but that movie defied science in so many ways......

Well... :) "SR" was sort of a Reeve tribute, but as to why Singer didn't film that shot from an other angle... I don't know. LOL.

With this next one, Singer should nevermind about Reeve. He's gone. Sure, still focus in on the humanity of our superhero but let Routh be his own Superman. It's his character now anyway.

Copy?:rolleyes: Thats how supes flies dark b incase you forgot. If Singer had him flying with his hands at his side people would saying he was Neo. Its a no-win situation really.

[dark_b]

Copy?:rolleyes: Thats how supes flies dark b incase you forgot. If Singer had him flying with his hands at his side people would saying he was Neo. Its a no-win situation really.ohh come on retro. the angle, the background is almost 99% the same. the only difference is the suit,the actor and the expression on their faces.

[Brian Braddock]

Really? Why? He can. In fact, didn't Superman ( Reeve )go to the Moon for some reason? Just curious.

Later.

[/b]

He did indeed go to the Moon in a Quest for Peace but he was able to venture into space in all the films;

1, 2 and 3 were all pre-Crisis (when the comics Supes still had the ability to go deep space) and so they used that ability.

4 was made post - Crisis but as they'd already established that Supes could go into space in the other 3 films, it would have been kinda tough (and pointless imo) to ret-con that; same with SR - being that it takes it's cues from the original films, Supes has the ability to go into space under his own steam again.



That's my understanding, anyways.

[Brian Braddock]

ohh come on retro. the angle, the background is almost 99% the same. the only difference is the suit,the actor and the expression on their faces.


Have to disagree with you dark_b.

At 1st they do look really similiar, but i've put them even closer together for a comparison, and IMO they don't look as similiar as I 1st thought.

Sure the background looks similiar but most times he's flying from a land mass to over water - it'd look like that.

The angles is slightly different as well.

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b64/SUPERBENITEZ/supescomp.jpg



Bottom line: - for it to be a copy, it's have to be exactly like the thing it's copying; which it isn't IMO.

[ec86]

ohh come on retro. the angle, the background is almost 99% the same. the only difference is the suit,the actor and the expression on their faces.
I don't get it.. what's so bad about that? Many people haven't even seen that it was a "copy" scene of the original movie

[Masut]

What a stupid argument going on here.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

say that again,

DB where did you get such clear piccys of those screens anyway?

[Showtime]

I dont get it, you're saying that Singer copied the way Superman flies from a sequence of Reeve. Superman was flying long before Reeve.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

There copying reeves when they show superman man fly from the side.

:woot:

The only thing I see is that Reeve had better hair. Dude's hair is resistant to wind.:wow: :woot:

I think they are copying Dean Cain and George Reeves as well.

They've been doing that angle of Superman flying for years.

he is superman.

[dark_b]

say that again,

DB where did you get such clear piccys of those screens anyway?on bluetights they are posting screencaps. and with photoshop i made them a little more clear.

[h0metwnhero]

when i said i didnt understand him flying in space
its sort of like yeah on earth he can defy gravity and move around in mid air and all this stuff
but when hes in space
what does he have to thrust himself?
does his body exert force?
im pretty sure im just reading too much into it
i just dont get it

and i honestly dont think the scene of superman flying over water was supposed to be a homage
i mean thats like saying
GOD DAMN IT HE FLEW PAST A BUILDING.... ANOTHER GOD DAMN HOMAGE
GOD DAMN IT NOW HES FLYING IN THE SKY CANT THEY COME WITH ANYTHING NEW.....IDIOTS.....
hes flying over water
big whoop

[The Sage]

Don't understand how the leg positions makes it look that much better, but that's probably me. Both look fine to me.

[Action ACE]

I actually found this to be the worst flying scene in the movie, it looked completely fake, it looked like brandon was just stuck there in 1 spot and didnt seem like he was flying. And notice how Christopher Reeve's feet are positioned properly and correctly, brandons are just straight, and you can tell its just poor and lazy people who didnt bother to utilise the previous films flying scenes for research.

You only have to look at how Chris Reeve flew in all 4 movies, he made it look effortless and beautiful, superman returns wasn't as good.

The guy who made the Zoptic machine was a genius, no CGI needed there, bollocks to all that, just a man in tights is enough!

aah, the gold old days, when actual talent was used instead of today where lazy people just shove in CGI wherever they please.

Dude I know! Look how life-like Reeve's hair is. ALL STIFF.

aah, the gold old days, when morons didn't post so much.

[Retroman]

ohh come on retro. the angle, the background is almost 99% the same. the only difference is the suit,the actor and the expression on their faces.
Still a big difference.:o And his hair actually moves unlike Reeve's wind resistant hair.

I don't see any reason to argue about this because Supes has been flying like that for eons.Long before Reeve donned the suit.

Thanks btw the for that pic from Cinefex.

[Retroman]

A couple of images from Japanese billboards and posters i posted in another thread.

I'd really love to see a upclose version of the amazing image on the right, where you see Superman with bullets bouncing off his chest.

For the hair thing. Brandon's hair ir much longer than Chris's was. Chris's hair was also crispy looking. Brandons doesn't look like it is.

They intentionally did not have him give a big smile. I suppose out of respect, had to do something to honor while not replicate Reeve.

well, seeing what they had to work with in the late 70's, I'd say it was pretty good... but overall, I prefer the Reeve style flight more than Routh's. It looks more believeable, and they didn't have to rely on CGI to make us believe that a man could fly.

[h0metwnhero]

i dont mean to rag on the reeve movies
i love them
all 4
i just prefer the full range of mobility theyve given him

if Donner had the chance... maybe. The reason I like the flying style of that is because to me it still looks believeable, especially the wire work. I absolutely loved the wire work in 1 and 3, especialy, because they used it the most in 3.

but Reeve made it work because he knew how to move in the harness.

[h0metwnhero]

now that i think about it they did do a good job in 3 with it.
when he was flying over the corn fields, his take off and landings with the chemical fire, and when drunken superman was flopping around in the air.

so i guess ill just eat my words now.

[Super Kal]

but you were right with 4... the flying in that was just horrible. The only reason I like that movie is because of the physical battle between Superman and Nuclear Man.

[h0metwnhero]

yeah i mean its the first time you SEE him go toe to toe. in S2 when him and zod go at it they.....grapple? and he gets kicked into a marlboro truck. i did like the fight bit between him non and ursa in the air though.

[dark_b]

They intentionally did not have him give a big smile. I suppose out of respect, had to do something to honor while not replicate Reeve.or because singer likes to have some reality in hes movies .

why would superman smile in the camera in a movie?this is a movie not reality show .:woot:

[Brian Braddock]

but you were right with 4... the flying in that was just horrible. The only reason I like that movie is because of the physical battle between Superman and Nuclear Man.


Lol, yeah - I always laugh when watching 4. After Nuclear Man destroys the Great Wall of China, when he flys off you can clearly see the actors' arms flapping as if he's desperately trying to steady himself - hardly conveys the image of a superbeing who's power of flight is 2nd nature.

Kakarot - I have to ask, did you like anything about SR?

[sammydr]

how are you getting this picture?:o

[dark_b]

how are you getting this picture?:oWB realesed the dvd in china.

[GarudA]

It is a pirated DVD that was released sometime ago it is around the web on torrents.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Thats ****ing amazing, i loved the way he was able to twist in the air in SR, he something similar just before he used his strong breath power.

[sammydr]

thank u ...now to find that torrent:huh:

[Super Kal]

no, it's the real thing... not pirated.

[nite-owl]

Sorry :mad:

What are you saying sorry for?:huh:

[Super Kal]

I dont think he likes that smile... er, smirk.

[Retroman]

the original was pretty blurry...
Oh, i see.:o

Thanks to everyone for posting those screencaps.:) :up:

[ec86]

The screencaps are awesome! I still have to wait till December :( but then I will watch it every day and night lol

[GarudA]

no, it's the real thing... not pirated.

It is a bootleg, it is a copy going around the internet, as it is not released in Europe or the USA yet, most likely people are geting it from the internet or on the streets.

Here it is on VCDquality

http://www.vcdquality.com/index.php?page=sample&id=63983

[Super Kal]

no, it's not a bootleg... WB did release the movie In China to compete with piracy. Any bootleg that comes out with the Mandarin subtitles in them probably came from the chinese release

[GarudA]

no, it's not a bootleg... WB did release the movie In China to compete with piracy.

Unless the user purchased it from China him/her self, then it mostly likely he/she got it from the Internet or on the streets, then that is a Bootleg. Unless they have the original copy then it is not. I am pretty sure the caps are from the bootleg that is going around the web.

[Super Kal]

dude, even WB said that they released it in China to compete with Piracy... IF it is a bootleg (which I highly doubt), that's where it came from. it is possible to get it from China, you know...

[GarudA]

You do not get what I am saying do you? I know it is out in China, I am just saying he/she mostly likely downloaded from the web, and that is also called bootleg but without the profit of selling.

[Super Kal]

and why do you have to think that it HAS to be the bootleg? is it too hard for you to grasp that they might have the actual Chinese DVD?

[GarudA]

I said "Most likely" it is. If you look at the quality of the caps, it looks like a DVD rip, ex Xvid quality.

[Pickle-El]

I said "Most likely" it is. If you look at the quality of the caps, it looks like a DVD rip, ex Xvid quality.

Either way, there's no way of knowing for sure if it is a bootleg of the DVD, or the actual dvd someone bought.

[Bad Superman]

What are you saying sorry for?:huh:

It was a post I made on the wrong thread. :cmad:

[Bad Superman]

I just did it again :mad:

[buggs0268]

Chris had so much Super-lacquer on that super-wig, no wonder it didnt move.

Sturdier than vibranium and adamantium combined.
It didn't move beause they couldnt use a fan when they shot Reeve. They used a special cape with a mechanism mush like the ribs of umbrella and it was manipulated offscreen to move like it was flying. When they used fans the wind bounced off of the scotchlight screen (because he was so close to it, and would blow the cape back towards him in the wrong direction. So they used a special flying cape.

[h0metwnhero]

when i was younger i was led to believe he had super hair.
then again.
i was six.
his hair was so greased up, if it had any sort of effect it would look horrible.
they are better off with the super hair theory.

[LL2K2]

Either way, there's no way of knowing for sure if it is a bootleg of the DVD, or the actual dvd someone bought.

But then again, there's always eBay...;)

Yet you still have that cool piccy of Routh in your avvy..

dude.. life goes on..and in my opinion..i just see returns as a first part to a larger narrative.. wgich is why i think the krypton return was cut.. it may be used in the sequel..possibly to introduce a certain charctor.

see?

even the trailer lied about the film... you can't trust anything the WB has to offer.

[M.O.Steel]

You know, all Singer had to do was let Superman return a few 'human' punches to show that he actually puts up a fight despite the effects of Kryptonite.

It'd have made a world of difference.

I completely agree with this statement, and i've said it other places here too. He doesn't fight because he has powers, he fights because he is a warrior who defends others, or fights to save others, having the powers just happens to help. He didn't even throw a punch. For the love of all that is holy, he is freakin superman.

[Showtime]

see?

It seems that its the poor quality of the screencaps more than anything.no no no . i was trying to show you guys that after the trailer they were using a filter. they made the enviorment more orange. on the other side this change changed also the suit and made the red more red. if it would be like in the trailr the red would be more desaturated.

please i really gotta have this skin. eversince i had the WMP Batman Begins skin i've been on the hunt for this one.

please i'm desparate :(

[Super Kal]

that was a special thing that only came with a specifically made PC... I really dont think you can get that skin.

[Steelsheen]

you could if you knew where to look, grab and upload ;)

skins are made and DLed all the time from skinning sites. the site i look to i think probably made the BB WMP skin, and they advertised the SR skin heavily, its just that given the limited number of PCs theres certainly a great deal of demand for the SR skin, but why wont they make them available? those Alienware PCs are sold out already arent they? why still make the skins difficult to get?

you know these are one of the things where the marketing dept could use to promote the movie with, keep it in the public's consciousness, yet it appears like they're purposely killing the interest. :mad:
