All Things Superman: An Open Discussion - - - - - - - - - Part 18

[ThePhantasm]

I'm going to wait for 100% confirmation from an undeniably reliable source.

The countdown itself links to the FB page, so... ??

 

[SuperAl]

he has a fantasic neck and trapez muscles. but he is wearing a muscle suit.

anyone wearing those tight superhero costumes are wearing muscle suits. We've already seen what Cavil looks like without the suit on anyway, we kno hes ripped.

 

[Dark_Lord]

It's not that I don't like it. It's fine. I feel kind of indifferent about it TBH.

It's just dissapointing cause I thought we were going to see something new.

Yup. That's what sucks the most. We've already seen this. It just now has a Man of Steel logo and date at the bottom.

 

[Showtime]

It's almost like they wanted to release the CC poster but then came to the genius conclusion that it would be a disaster (after the app company mistakenly went live with their test) and quickly mucked up this poster from a screenshot.

I sent an email to their marketing department talking about the confusion their countdown was causing the interwebs.

Stage #1: Denial.

you know what it reminds me of, when you try to watch a movie in low definition on a led hd tv.

this.

 

[BH/HHH]

Again, the poster is somewhat underwhelming, but I'm VERY glad they went for different and not the safe and typical CGI/Photoshop CBM-poster.

Suddenly this not looking as bad huh

[RoughNTumble]

oh lawd that's it?

 

[SpideyFan866]

Edit.

 

[dark_b]

I don't care if it's a muscle suit. What matters is the look. And again, he looks freakin' huge.

i agree. he looks amazing in the suit

 

[souperman]

...can't wait for them to start the Hobbit countdown!

[TheSymbol]

Strange poster.

I feel the same way, It's nowhere as bad as past movie posters but it's also not that great. It feels like a teaser poster 2.0

 

[Rust]

Oh, it is. This didnt change anything. On the contrary almost.

I think people misunderstand this new poster and are too accustomed to Photoshopped-to-death posters that these movies have.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Now that the poster has highlighted the subject, what do we think is going on with Superman wearing handcuffs?

I mean, is he de powered at the time? Are they kryptonite hancuffs/special hancuffs of some kind? Or is he just wearing them out of respect?

 

[SpideyFan866]

Nah.

Blurry/Noisy or not, the new poster is still better than that.

 

[ThePhantasm]

Wearing them out of respect, is my guess.

 

[Mindreaper21]

Nevermind...It seemed fishy at first, though now I understand that some people really suck at photoshop.

Actually, that looks worse, IMO. No matter how bad the execution is on the MOS poster, at least we have a full frontal pic of Supes. Although it's kind of funny, all 3 officialy released photos of Superman so far, are hidding the trunks area. I was hopping for a confident I HAVE NO TRUNKS AND I LOOK AWESOME, DEAL WITH IT! photo by now.

 

[DaJanksta]

Batman fights in the shadows and Superman fights in the light. He believes in truth and justice. He has turned himself in and is allowing them to escort him. I like it.

He's definitely wearing them out of respect.

Superman has always been cooperative with the government if need be.

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

Why are they afraid to just release something early that is f'ing epic?

 

[X Knight]

it's not so much the actual content or scene depicted...........but the fact that it looks fanmade/photoshopped.

that was my initial reaction to it. is it fake or real??

this better not be the poster they release in the theaters........
