Yeah, I don't get the complete lack of marketing for this film. It's either over-confidence or stupidity. The reaction so far has been extremely positive, so it may be over-confidence.

Because they can't make CG toys?

Another thing, we can now confirm with certainty that it's Zod -- not Faora -- standing next to Superman in the trailer when he's spitting up on the floor.

Snyder's movies always have insulting bad makeup.

It's been discussed in the manip thread quite a bit. Great image. But, yeah, it's a fan manip.

Agree. Imagine seeing one of those, but gigantic, across the wall of your local cinema.

BH/HHH · 02-10-2013, 02:57 PM

Hopefully this now pushed WBs to do an official reveal of the Kryptonians

That's the type of big banner that should have been in theaters all over the world already.
Instead of that odd hand cuff walk.

WB Marketing at it's best.

DKDetective · 02-10-2013, 03:33 PM

That's a manip?!?!?!

Based on some of the past Cavill manips and the fan posters on the Bat-boards I knew we had some seriously talented people around here, but this one is a whole new level. Wow, just wow. All the textures and colours pop so beautifully. WB could learn a lot from that in terms of the promo images being released.

But could Michael Shannon *fight* in that suit? I doubt it.

At any rate, you might be jumping to conclusions a little too quickly. Yes, we know that Zod's armor will be CGI in the fight scenes, but I think his armor will be real in the nonphysical scenes. If you look at the picture released by Empire magazine, the suit looks very, very real. I don't think it's CGI:

This approach (i.e. real suit for dialogue scenes and CGI suit for action scenes) is certainly not unprecedented. The Iron Man movies are shot in exactly the same way, from what I understand.

Zionite1 · 02-10-2013, 04:26 PM

Holy shiiiiiiiit!
A manip!Godammn thats the sthe best MOS poster weve had yet.WB shld pay this guy and use the pic.

The pic shows us 2 things-MOS suit is awesome,WB isnt showing it to the fullest

I still think Shannon's CGI suit something else cause Shannon said the armour was big n that it had to be done in CGI.

Yep, I don't think we've seen the cgi armor yet

gomez147 · 02-10-2013, 05:45 PM

You know you're doing it wrong when fan-made posters are actually better than most of the official released ones...

herolee10 · 02-10-2013, 05:51 PM

Oh Lord, all that I ask for is that we get some new (live action stuff) this coming week.lol

sup101 · 02-10-2013, 05:51 PM

Yea this zod armor thing is trickery.The concept description said he had 2 different types of armor one with a helmet.
We don't even know if he on krypton or earth in that Empire magazine picture.

robmx522 · 02-10-2013, 05:59 PM

robmx522 · 02-10-2013, 06:03 PM
