Will Stanford make Brainiac?

[Cinemaman]

I have one question, is it possible that Stanford can make Brainiac at the end of SR? If it is so, we will get full Brainiac in sequel.

What you think?

[KrypJonian]

I don't know how smart the guy's supposed to be, but I doubt it.

If anything, I could see him maybe "discovering" something having to do with Brainiac. But I don't think he could just come up with the idea.

Maybe he's smart enough to create Metallo?

[kalelinri]

thats possibl but i thinks it is more likely that stanford "unleashes" brainiac from fiddling with kryptonina technology

[Superman=Routh]

OH god I hope not, this guy is just the next otis, hopefully his character will die, or he will not be brought back for the sequel.

[StarvingArtist]

There is abolutely no basis at all for the conlusion or speculation that Brainiac will make any kind of appearance whatsoever. You could just as easily say that Luthor could possibly end up using his kryptonite to make Metallo.

[kalelinri]

OH god I hope not, this guy is just the next otis, hopefully his character will die, or he will not be brought back for the sequel.
he is not on a recent interview with spacey he said that stanford is the computer wiz of him posse

[Mr. Thing]

OH god I hope not, this guy is just the next otis, hopefully his character will die, or he will not be brought back for the sequel.

He's not the next otis. This guy's smart, Otis wasn't.

Maybe. I like your point of view.

[Showtime]

He won't be the next Otis, more like a cooler version of Gus Gorman. He won't discover "Kryptonian Technology", he will find out how to activate it.

[KrypJonian]

Yeah, you could. I'm not seeing the problem.

It's imaginary speculation, dig it.

[Cinemaman]

Are you kidding?

[Superman=Routh]

How can this guy be taken serious, he starred in Harold and Kumar go to White Castle!? Still say he is the next Otis or will have the occasion Otis funny witt, Singer did say its the "Funniest film he has ever done" Plus he just got the job cause of his friendship with Routh.

I think Lex will have a little dialogue with Stanmford and he will mention Brainiac, his new project.

And then in sequel we will know that Lex found Brainiac.

Doesn't mean he isn't qualified to play the role. Lots of people gets jobs initially because of who they know and go on to do them very well...

We all saw pics from SR, Penn loks too seriously to be next Otis.

You cant say he will be even campy!

The same situation was with Jim Carrey.

[Superman=Routh]

He played a guy named Kumar for god sake!

What does that have to do with anything? He is an actor that potrayed a humerous character in a humerous movie. Many actors do comedy and drama, "that's why they call them actors Kent".

If you can't accept him in a serious role than that is your opinion and that is ok too. :up:

[Superman=Routh]

comparing an A list actor like Jim Carrey to a guy who hasnt had much of a career is like comparing apple's to oranges.

[Superman=Routh]

Thanks showtime, hopefully Michael Myers will join in Freddy Vs. Jason 2.


BTW I hate Michael Bay doing Friday the 13th 11 *no remake damm it!*

[Octoberist]

THis is how they can do it: Stanford will use a computer program to manipulate the technology, and he dubs it "Brainaic". It think it would be a cool touch. At the sametime, for the sequel, how can you make Brainaic into a humanoid? Unless there's mutation going on, or even the technology can possess a human (thus becomeing a superhuman cyborg), I don't know how they can do it.

Not bad. And then in sequel they will improve it and turn into Brainiac from STAS.

That's the rumor so far, I would rather them continue the Halloween franchise. There is a rumor they might remake John Carpenters Halloween. Doesn't make sense, it still stands today.

Robert England is the one who came up with the idea of bringing Micheal Myers into the fold. I don't really know how much sway this guy has, but I don't like the idea.

I think we need to wait and see on the Bay remake. I think he is going to give us a better origin on the character of Jason. Time will tell.

[Superman=Routh]

I have heard the Bay movie is remake/sequel like SR is. That it takes place between 1 and 2, however his mom is still alive.

I think it will have influences from Psycho, the mother telling Jason what to do.

Gentlemen, we are talking about Stanford making Brainiac, not about Friday 13th remake!

You might be talking about Stanford and Braniac but we got sidetracked and are talking about Friday the 13th. That's how it is.

Jason Vs. Superman? :D

[Superman=Routh]

Its weird to here Laurie Stode might still be alive, for the FVJ sequel.

So then, it is off-topic.

He played a guy named Kumar for god sake!
So what? What in the world does the name of a character he played have anything to do with a character in a Superman movie?

And why would god care? Don't bring him into this...

No problem, it was for honorable reasons.

Well from the old rumor Brainiac hitches a ride to earth with Superman and that Brainiac is a sort of computer virus

Stanford could play a role.

[Superman=Routh]

stanford = otis= campy= OTISBURG!!! or in this case STANFORBURG!!!

I think Brainiac is something bigger than just next computer virus like Skynet from T3.

lets not judge a character before we know anything substantial about it. Kal has done some good movies, they may have been comedies, but some were quite good. Almost garenteed he'll turn out to be the one goon Luthor has that will be any fun/or importance watching.

[logan_weapon_x]

Robin Williams - Comedian who had a great role in Insomnia. Ryan Reynolds - A comedic actor, was great in Amityville Horror, regardless of whether you liked the film. Bill Murray - Comedian, ended up playing Polonius in the new version of Hamlet. And there's a whole lot more. Its ridiculous that because somebody plays a comedic role that means they can't handle a serious one. If anything, people that are comedians can take quite easily to serious roles, as their humor usually comes from serious events. Although thats besides the point. The damn movie isn't out yet, so stop judging the Stanford character already.

[That-Guy]

Stanford University is making Brainiac? Damn... I knew those Ivy League kids were smart, but geez...

gimme a break! that's like saying michael keaton wouldn't be a good batman cause he was in all those comedies in the 80s(mr. mom, beetlejuice, etc.). yeah he was crappy batman(i'm being sarcastic!!). and have you seen any of singer's films? they aren't funny. they are super serious. you act like he's making a batman and robin type superman movie. i think the real question is how can you be taken seriously??

Deleted Scene.

[Superdob]

Isn't that from Superman The Movie? The missles had an advanced avoidance system on them, so when Superman was waiting to catch it, it just avoided him.

Superman I: 10 dollars on vhs
Superman II: 8 dollars used on DVD

It is a deleted scene from STM. You are correct. I don't know about avoidance systems.

[KrypJonian]

How bizarre.

I've totally watched the Special Edition countless times, but I never noticed that shot. Awesome, maybe there's more stuff I've missed.

Thanks :up:

[Showtime]

Everytime I watch it I notice something new!

[Superdob]

Huh. I thought I saw that scene when I saw STM on cable one time. The whole "avoidance system" thing is definitely in the regular version of STM. It's really quick...in one of the scenes in the missile launch control room. One of the generals says something about the advanced avoidance system.

I thought I had purchased the special edition DVDs....but when I watched the movies, they didn't have any of the extra footage woven into them. Does the SE have the scenes where Luthor tests Supe's abilities right before he comes into Luthor's lair?

If Kumar fights superman and wins I will be pissed.

Now I'm not condemming Kumar to Otisburg or anything, but comon Venom, check out the guys resume. At least 80% of what he's done is comedic.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but I can't fault others that don't. There's plenty of basis for their concern.

Penn might not be exactly campy, but he will be the villianous comic relief. Id bet my left nut on it, and anyone who disagree's is fooling themselves with this " Kal is an actor, he can act " crap. Yea he can act, in a comedy of course. He won't be as annoying as Otis, but bring on the comedy.
