Official New Superman Returns Pictures

[BatFitz]

Me too though i don't recall seeing that planet.:huh:

It's Krypton as the camera is panning below it to reveal the Red Sun

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

that opening seemed rushed..i still believe that was not the original opening!

[Super Kal]

the original opening was a comic strip of Superman 1.

[dark_b]

that opening seemed rushed..i still believe that was not the original opening!whats wrong with your memory? :wow:
of course it was not the original opening. they already showed us in the blogs how they will make it. they change it because they cut out he krypton scene. so everything had to be changed.

the original opening was a new opening it was a fresh opening. all this time we are saying how singer made everthing the same. this was something that would be new ....but they couldnt ...they just couldnt do it. they just had to make it the same. for christ sake the font was the same. it looked so 70's. the music is classic,the farm is classic but for christ sake the opning was dated. it looked cheap.

It was an amazing trip through space. Nothing cheap about it. Sure it is retro, but it was still great.

is it just me........but why does it seem like the costume colors are much brighter ( more classic ) in most of the marketing material......but not in the actual movie????because the in the movie the lightining changes so that the colours change.

oh my word, what awesome pictures!

what the hell was wb doing with its morons in the marketing deparments??

these are the best pics,

the poses are absolutely a million times better than the promo pics we got,

had these been released during the films release, no doubt you get a better view of what the movie will be like

WB needs to fire their marketing deparment,

there is absolutely no excuse for them not to show these pictures, absolutely none,

unless it was done deliberately by WB to sabotage singer's vision.

[Will]

see?

even the trailer lied about the film... you can't trust anything the WB has to offer.
What are you referring to here? The color saturation?

[Super Kal]

yeah... they can't even release an official poster without changing the colors...

[Will]

yeah... they can't even release an official poster without changing the colors...
*Shrug*

Not that big of a deal to me if the colors change from the trailer to the actual movie since I'm sure tweaking is done all the time.

I will admit that they do seem to change their minds alot regarding the posters.

[Super Kal]

it's a big deal to me... why should I invest my money in a company when they lie to me?

[Will]

it's a big deal to me... why should I invest my money in a company when they lie to me?
Why, are you investing in their stock or something?

Besides, I don't let movie poster coloring affect my opinion of the movie since it shouldn't have any bearing on it at all.

[Super Kal]

why should I watch their movie when everything that they release looks nothing like it will in the movie... they over-hype it, and when you watch it, it's a complete letdown.

[The Caped Knight]

Answer me one Question

"ARE YOU A TRUE SUPERMAN FANBOY" ?

[Super Kal]

Do I like Superman?... yes, do I like Singer's suit or how he twisted the character?... HELL no.

[The Caped Knight]

Do I like Superman?... yes, do I like Singer's suit or how he twisted the character?... HELL no.

That's why you should buy the dvd . If your a superman fanboy, you'll buy the dvd to support your hero [Who has been missing from The Big Screen for a long time.] I presonally while their were somethings I didn't like about the movie. When watching it I didn't care because SUPERMAN was back . And For an introduction back into both the media and in the pop cluture, I was happy with the movie [And I can't wait to buy the dvd] not to mention the upcoming sequel which is sure to be better [just like X2 was, heck i'm sure it will be even better.]

:super:

And if you think about it really hard SR was really good compeared to Superman III & IV not to mention Batman & robin as well as all the other bad superhero movies .

[Super Kal]

I saw Sr 11 times in the theater when it was out... I think i can decide whether or not I will buy the DVD.

[Super Kal]

edit

[The Caped Knight]

I saw Sr 11 times in the theater when it was out... I think i can decide whether or not I will buy the DVD.

I saw it 15 + and everytime I saw it I loved it . I picked up on things that you really don't notice the first time ,

I can't wait to own The Dvd :super:

[Super Kal]

good for you... I'm glad this crap of a movie made someone happy...

[BatFitz]

heh..Kakarot I'm always confused about your opinion on this movie...

[Super Kal]

besides the suit, lighting, and the way Superman is shown in the movie, it was above average movie...

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

good for you... I'm glad this crap of a movie made someone happy...

Ok then you think it was crap.

besides the suit, lighting, and the way Superman is shown in the movie, it was above average movie...


ok you think the movie is above average(wouldn't that make a good movie?)

make up your frigging mind dude.:huh:

[Super Kal]

I didn't watch the movie for the acting, or the actors, or the story... I watched it for the color tone, lighting, suit, and Superman character.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

I didn't watch the movie for the acting, or the actors, or the story... I watched it for the color tone, lighting, suit, and Superman character.


And that misses the point of the movies..

escapism.

I pity you..just a little.:cwink:

[Super Kal]

I really wanted to escape... trust me, I really did... but I just couldn't because of the depressing mood I got from the overall lighting and color from the movie.

[Action ACE]

Bla Bla Bla

but don't you see..that was the whole point of the film..it was ment to be dull.. and the light begins to shine at the end..in the dawn of the rising sun.

[Super Kal]

I get it, but I disagree with it...

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

why not dude?

It resolves the dark look of the film..by the end of the movie..superman had indeed returned.

[The Caped Knight]

because I don't like nor want to see a dark natured Superman.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

because I don't like nor want to see a dark natured Superman.

That was the best part of III, IMO. I almost wish Singer could reuse that somehow, considering the rest of the movie was kaka.

[Super Kal]

not mine, that entire movie is summed up into four words for myself...

garbage dump shirt rip.

[AgentPat]

but don't you see..that was the whole point of the film..it was ment to be dull...^ Signature material. :up: :D :p

I'm sorry Robo, but that was just priceless. LOL ;)

[Showtime]

Me too though i don't recall seeing that planet.:huh:

I just watched it, it's right at the beginning.

[dark_b]

good for you... I'm glad this crap of a movie made someone happy...are you making fun of us? how can you watch this movie 11 times and not like it?
and dont you dare to say that it was because you are a superman fan.
noone belives you this.

excuse me?... dont threaten me, dark. As much as I love the character, I hate how he was butchered in this movie. I may support it, but I sure as hell don't like it.

[dark_b]

excuse me?... dont threaten me, dark. As much as I love the character, I hate how he was butchered in this movie. I may support it, but I sure as hell don't like it.hmmm from where i come this is not a threat. so i am sorry. i guess in english it sounds different.

[Showtime]

It didn't sound like a threat to me DB, but there have been alot of people lashing out at Kak about his opinions, so he might have taken it out of context.

Kak, you have every right to your opinion, but I feel like you flip-flop alot on your opinions, which again you have every right to do but I think that's why people are calling you out.

[Super Kal]

maybe I did, but overall, I was really disappointed... I try to look at the positive side of the film sometimes, which is reflected in some of my posts, but I always come back to the lighting, tone, Superman Character, and suit, and I just get that big disappointed feel all over again.

I understand what you're saying. I agree with some of the suit issues but not with the lighting tone. I think there was a reason for it which was evidenced by Superman Recharging and Superman flying at the end. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. From what is swirling right now, I believe you will be a happy camper with the sequel.

[Super Kal]

I really hope so... I'm happy I got to see something of a Fleischer movie with Donner overtones, but now I want to see something completely modern and free from Fleischer and Donner.

[Showtime]

I think that was the point of Returns, "tossing away" the Donner Universe and moving forward. I really do believe that, and I hope for it. I think that we are going to see some more comic elements. Superman flew in Returns like we've never see him fly before. Now we are going to see Superman in action against a supervillian as it was meant to be. I am going to have such high hopes for this movie.

[dark_b]

teh camera in the flying shots was nothing special.

[Showtime]

I think the flying was actually very believable compared with the Reeve films, it was a vast improvement and will only get better.

[Action ACE]

I think the flying was actually very believable compared with the Reeve films, it was a vast improvement and will only get better.

I agree! Also, I find the CGI to be amongst the best out there right now. Especially the plane rescue.

[Super Kal]

the flying was good, but I want to see more full body shots of take offs and landings in the next movie.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

^

agreed!!!

[PSU442]

the one cgi shot that really bumbed me out was when he flew away from the plane in the stadium --- it just looked terrible. It may of been the way Singer composed the shot, the angle of the shot, etc. I can't really remember what it was about it. Just too CGI

on a side note, i think thats one of my problems with modern CGI, directors become too creative with where they can virtually place the camera and it ruins the effect. The point of CGI is to make something unrealistic look realistic --- like looking into a rear view mirror to see a t-rex chasing you. It just doesn't work when the director places the camera somewhere the camera can't be. It especially irkes me when something blows up and shards fly into and past the camera. I guess i just like things grounded in reality.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

I don't want them to EVER use a CGI Superman again! I know, I know...some things are impossible to shoot in real. But they should find a way or find another shot, IMO.

[CGHulk]

Whatever happened to those bad pictures of Routh in the suit, and my post, and everyone elses? Did WB request to have those pictures and comments to be removed from this forum, so the film doesn't get any negative buzz that the studio thinks that film doesn't need so that it won't affect DVD sales?

If those pics were deleted its probably to avoid possible legal trouble.It has nothing to do with dvd sales. Sony and Fox have also asked for promopics and even setpics to be removed from other boards here in the past. I've seen entire threads disappear resulting in lots of pissing and moaning.

They need to put a scene like that of him in a sleeveless shirt and flexing in the sequel. The suit doesnt do a good job of showing off his physique, which is why alot of misguided people believe hes too thin.

It doesn't matter how big he is in real life. All that matters is how he looks onscreen. If he looks to skinny onscreen, then he needs to be bigger.

those pictures of brandon should shut a few people up.


C'mon Robo, quit bein' niave - unfortunately, you and I both know that there are people who, despite being presented with evidence to the contrary, i.e:-

they'll still insist that Routh hadnt worked out at all and any size whatsover was all the work of a muscle suit.

I know what you mean about the design element to the Superman posters.....The best thing they did was that DVD cover with Supes flying by the plane's wing. THAT should have been an official poster to the movie. They need more 'in action' shots like that. Supes himself isn't as cool looking as Spidey or Bats. They need to show what he can do in these supposed thought out promotional items.

Good find.

Although, I'm surprised there havent been any dumb-ass 'he's obviously wearing a flesh coloured muscle-suit/those images have been photoshopped to give him muscles' responses to these pics yet.

[The Sage]

http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q71/LGS624/Brandon69.jpg

It's getting obvious the suit needs to be redesigned to show off his physique. Either that or he should get a great deal bigger.

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

all they need to do is change the material..is was too constricting...

these pictures should have been released long ago.

[DorkyFresh]

all they need to do is change the material..is was too constricting...
agreed. Routh has the muscles and the definition. the suit just squeezes them out. i think it's dumb that they go with a more restricting material. just because they don't want folds, creases, and wrinkles in the suit.

most people know that fabric does that...

The good thing is now..he doesn't have reeve hanging over his head as well.. he has alot of time now..and so do the production team to work out the kinks so to speak.

I personally think that it was the muscle suit that ruined the look of him..it looked like he couldnt move properly..like when his arms were out stretched.

[DorkyFresh]

they need to go with light, flexable material like this...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/Geijutsuka/Manips/clothmanip1.jpg

you can see abdominal definition more than you can with Supes' movie suit. i'd bet that you could even see his veins better.

[Action ACE]

Hate to beat a dead horse but the problem isn't so much the material as much as the neckline. I mean, yes, the material is restrictive but the man has a good chest and neck (keep the flaming to a minimum for me saying that), why hide it?

Milliskin (the SR suit material) is supposed to be even lighter than the Nike material and this thing still compress muscle. Gavin Henson looks slightly bigger, especially in the arms, shirtless. But they could have Nike make the costumes for free, with a product placement exchange.

i dont think that the material was teh problem .some people just dotn like the size that singer and WB wanted. but pics are showing that branond was in an extreme shape if you think how long he was working out. give this man 3 months and he will be the biggest sueprman ever.

That's pretty cool. But I like the final one. It was a nice shocker when all you could hear was a tiny explosion and then BOOM!

dude....the boots are TOTALLY wrong, hehe.

[Batman the 6th]

Supersebas, what better look could Singer give Routh?

[SUPERSEBAS]

Supersebas, what better look could Singer give Routh?

Singer says that the costume have that style, because is adapted to the Routh body, but that is not true, the proportions of the costume thosen give to brandon a strong look, If I have the oportunity to show what I can do with Brandon, you would be very suprise!

Another thing, Singer says that Brandon dotn get more big muscles, because he thosen need it!!! that was a mistake, because if Brandon would get more biger, he would look more mature, and he can have the oportunity to made his neek and haws more stronger, and that is what he need to look mature and strong! in a more muscular shape, we thosen need the muscle suit behind the costume.

The hair look would need to be more like the Reeve wen he was in the desert in the first movie!!! that eas one of the best hair look of all Superman performances ever!! and would look much better in Routh. Specialy wen he is flying! superman have a very strong hair, so it woul be dificult that superman hair move to much with the wind! and made look the character more preserved on his look, wen brandon have the hair moving with the wind, he thosen look like superman any more, the hairlook is very very very important on the Superman look! and of course he should turn his hair black, because wen you see him with a strong ligth, his ahir looks brown!

And for the last thing, the Superman costume should look as the classic we know, but whith modern materials!!! all this would made Brandon look amazing

His hair is strong, yeah but isn't it still flexible? Like his skin is pretty much invulnerable, but it would still feel like skin to the touch.

That's a crazy picture. Love it, so realistic looking.

[Darkest Knight]

And to say the costume's color didn't have red... :whatever:

[Super Kal]

if you didn't notice, the inside of the cape is a brighter red than the outside, but what good is it if you rarely get to see it?...

That's a crazy picture. Love it, so realistic looking.
you call a man flying in space without a space suit realistic?...

[Darkest Knight]

The boots, trunks, and symbol also have red that is clearly visible. The Returns costume is so great. Too bad the movie didn't even come close to its potential.

sure fooled me when he was lifting the shuttle off of the plane...

[Darkest Knight]

The concept of a man flying without a space suit isn't realistic. The suspension of disbelief aside, and the accuracy of lighting, look, etc. Makes the clear un-realistic concept, look realistic within the context of the picture. So yes, it looks realisic. Just as the physics to the plane sequence looked pretty realistic, for being COMPLETELY un-realistic.

:whatever:

[Darkest Knight]

Well of course it is a darker toned red, and in that exact scene he is in darkess because light is being blocked by a giant shuttle. When he is flying in broad daylight towards the crashing jet, the suit's colors look very rich and powerful.

[Super Kal]

i completely disagree... dark colors just look bad on Superman. The character wasn't made to have dark colors on his suit.

[Darkest Knight]

Really? Seeing as how he has had them many times. Bottom line is, the character was red and blue. Where has it ever been stated the "character wasn't made to have dark colors on his suit"? It isn't black, it isn't grey, it isn't forest green. His suit is a blood red and blue. His costume has had different tones and versions of colors to his suit before.

[Super Kal]

agreed, but none of them have been as dark as what Singer did. Singer's suit has been the darkest it's ever been, and I don't like it one damn bit.

purple red, purple red... and what do ya know... PURPLE RED.

My statement STILL stands... Singer has made the darkest Superman suit to date, and I'll never like the dark, drab, depressing colors that he used... ever.

[The Watchman]

The colors sucked, plain and simple, I'm not going to be an apologist for this point. Honestly I feel it's what kept the box office lower than expected on a psychological level for mainstream audiences.

watching the special features I honestly believe, Louise Mingenbach, while well intentioned, had no bussiness working on this movie, she needs to be replaced or seriously redeem herself.

[Zorex]

I dunno, the red areas in those pics don't exactly scream "Purple red" to me...or even whisper it for that matter. Yes, it's dark and low on the saturation, but, at least in those pics, I'm not so much seeing the purple.

However...I do want a more stand-out red in the sequel. I feel like the red that was used might've looked red enough in person and in test & behind-the-scenes footage, but it often lost a lot of its strength in the final cut.

Oof, this really isn't the place to be going on about this though...

[Super Kal]

that too...

[dark_b]

well i am 100% sure tha tthe colour was nto the reason. noone will tell me that people didnt go in the theater because the red is nto bright enough.maybe superman fans but not normal peeople.

[The Watchman]

There are certain psychological "tricks" if you will that can make a movie more appealing to a general audience, color pallet is one of them. While I'm sure the action, or seeming lack thereof played a role in general disinterest, I feel the actual colors and marketing approach hurt the film more in the longrun.

I could go on all day about this film, as it is genuinly interesting analyzing it, but this isn't the place. Carry on picture fiends. :up:

[Darkest Knight]

There is no such thing as "purple red". It's different tones of the same color. The suit was red and blue. The suit looked great.

If one believes average viewers didn't go see Returns in masses because the suit had blood red, instead of super neon red? Then there might be a lack of intelligence of said person. It had little to nothing to do with the success of the film. The only part of the population that whines over superhero movie costumes is the comic buying public. They always have something to complain about.

[Darkest Knight]

Those pictures of Superman and the costume's colors match perfectly with the colors from the cartoon slides, of the extremely popular Fleisher cartoons.

wine red is a perfect example of "purple red".

if they actually were the same thing, then the SR suit would look like this:

Yeah, but it is still red. haha Either way, the color is red.

Then please tell me, what DID it look like? The picture I posted in comparison to the Fleisher is that of one of the darkest scenes from the movie, with little to no light to bring out the colors. The costume was a pure chameleon. It looks darker than it is, because for some reason Singer decided to use a very dark saturation to his film. In the plane sequence, it looked really bright in the sun's rays. It was rich in color.

The Returns suit is virtually the same as the Fleisher suit. Either way, the suit wasn't where the problems of the film lay. Afterall, we are arguing semantics, and about the richness and or tone of a suit. Whatever the character wears should always be the least of concern, in terms of getting the characters right. The only people who ***** about costumes are the classic dorks, who are consumed by the little thing, and don't get the big picture. Always has been. Whether its for Batman, Spider-man, etc. Look at you kakarot, you're catching feelings because I said the suit closely resembles the color of the Fleisher cartoons (which it does, it was the obvious look they were going for), so please lighten up. We know you wanted the flaming colors on the superman suit. The ones so bright it looks offensive, and corny. But spare me, the suit was red, don't keep putting this "it was purple" spin to it. Dark red, light red, medium red, either way its red.
