The tablet edition of each issue usually becomes available on Thursday, so we should get a decent look at the pics inside (and full article) tomorrow.

Perfect birthday present for me

 

[J.Howlett]

It's this Friday.

The tablet edition will hit tomorrow morning.

If this film is good: Nolan gets credit.
If this film is bad: Snyder gets the blame.

I can already see it.

That's basically how it's gonna go down.

That's what I'm gonna do.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

Hi.

And what now? Do I get a reward or something?

I said that on purpose....shut your face

 

[Dark Sentinel]

Preview man, preview.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

That's basically how it's gonna go down.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Your username was ripe for a full bloom parody account. I am surprised you waited so long.

I want heat vision, and train slinging in the next trailer.
It's a must.

If this film is good: Nolan gets credit.
If this film is bad: Snyder gets the blame.

I think it'll be worse than that. I think Nolan will get the credit for anything that does work in the film, and Snyder will get the blame for anything that doesn't.

So even if the film is great, any nit picks fans have will be blamed on Snyder. And even if the film is awful, and redeeming qualities it does have will be attributed to Nolan.

That's basically how it's gonna go down.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Well aren't you a peach

 

[STARMAN]

I give Nolan the credit for making the phone call. I give Snyder the credit for making the film.

Anthony Breznican ‏@Breznican 32s Superman throws LOTS of punches in Man of Steel. In one streetfight, he goes downright Buddy Rich on a villain's face http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/04/10/this-weeks-cover-man-of-steel …

 

[X Knight]

I think ( and hope ) this mag cover will do a lot to raise the general public's awareness that Superman is back.

 

[Travesty]

If this film is good: Nolan gets credit.
If this film is bad: Snyder gets the blame.

I can already see it.

I've been saying that for months now, and would get belittled for it.....watch yourself.

 

[BatLobster]

Lol, like the fanbase is against criticizing Nolan. The TDKR boards say different.

But obviously, it's Snyder and Goyer's film, they should get the credit whether it's a hit or miss.

If it's good, Nolan gets major P.I.M.P. points for essentially snapping his fingers and having it materialize.

And Cavill looks awesome on the cover despite being a photo we've seen. Can't wait for the full article/pics.

Its great to get confirmation of these things we all want to see in the film.

LOL! I'm guessing the villain was a robot? I mean, Buddy Rich is a drummer and this is PG-13 so I don't see Supes smashing Zod's face in.

I don't want to be mistaken for a troll after the new trailer description turns out to be false, so here's the deal with what happened over at IMDB.

A user by the name of something like New_Gospel originally posted the trailer description. It was up for about ten minutes, but when I finally decided to check the thread out, all it had was two posts that just said "deleted by administrator".

When I tried clicked back, and tried to check the original poster's account, it was gone.

Right after that, a notorious troll by the name of seshumaruuchiha, reposted the deleted material, saying that it sounded awful, it sucked, etc.

Whenever someone complimented the trailer, he would just say it sucked. His whole reason for reposting it, was just to insult it. I doubt he even knew that the original thread had been deleted.

He didn't actually write any of it up, because as sad as it is, the guy's writing is even less competent than that of the person who wrote the trailer description.

Now, I (The_Colonscope) am 99% sure that the trailer is fake, because it sounds completely off. The new dialogue sounds bad, the tone of the trailer is completely different to what we've gotten so far, etc.

But, by the 1% chance that it was real, I decided to repost it, because most of the MOS board has seshumaruuchiha on ignore, and probably wouldn't have ever seen the trailer description.

Now, like I said, the supposed trailer description is likely fake, I'm 99% certain of it. The other 1% only exists because of what happened with the trailer description that was posted last year, that turned out to be real.

Just wanted to point this out because when this trailer turns out to be fake, all the the IMDB links lead to my thread, I don't want to be mistaken for a troll.

Tl;dr

Trailer is probably fake, but was not originally posted by a troll (Well, not the one that everyone is thinking of)
The_Colonscope is not a troll

Punching
Everyone loves punching

In regards to the "Kryptonian prince" theory, since the Crest of El is a symbol of hope what if he's not actually a "prince" in the strictest sense of the word? If there IS a prophecy concerning Kal-El, what if it says something along the lines of "a prince of hope shall arise from the House of El."?

Just thoughts t:

What if the whole "what if a child aspire to something greater" Jor-El speech is not for humans but for Kryptonians???
