Ya I just went and confirmed it just to be sure, I didn't doubt it but wow what another stinker, what the hell is WB doing?
I dunno...I love how they feature the S symbol in the poster...but then again apparently anything that's not orgasmic is considered trashy and terrible when it comes to the hype boards.
They certaintly are. I forget them too easily.Great verses Woody!
I said it before and I'll say it again.
"You Will Believe A Poster Can Suck"
------- WB Marketing Department
Looks like Superman started this fire and looks pleased with his work lol.
That would be good as a teaser poster, the first poster...
It's official. Speaking of which, a dude in the Sideshow Collectors forums named IrishJedi has been talking about MOS from the "inside." I actually believe him, since he comes across as knowledgeable.It's Zack's movie. No doubt about that at all.
If there's a Nolan who deserves more than the usual Producer's credit, it's actually his brother: Jonathan. He helped save the mess of a script (by David Goyer) with Zack and his team at literally the 11th hour. Unfortunately, those guys won't get their due on script credit thanks to the WGA.
But I'll tell ya, when I read Goyer's script just before production I was pretty d*** concerned. And that was the draft Chris Nolan blessed and had story input on. Thankfully, his brother and others knew it could be vastly improved... and WB backed them. But Goyer will get the credit, which is a sham... but that's how the system works.
I will say that overall this does look and feel quite different than Zack's other films. But that's also because of him. I think he has a better feel for the subject matter and Supes and just let the material flow through him instead of the other way around.
On Nolan being on set and approving an initially flawed script:.I've been involved with the production since 2 weeks before shooting began. Trust me, Christopher Nolan's input and influence since that time has been quite minimal. And I'll reiterate: the draft of the Goyer script he signed off on was pretty d*** lame. Design choices and all tech decisions were all Zack and his team, as was the much doctored shooting script (with Jonathan ghost-writing a lot of it).
You'll never hear anyone at WB or elsewhere say that officially of course. And, for obvious reasons: they're using Chris Nolan's name to help sell people on the flick. And that makes perfect sense. Plus, him signing on as Producer is what got it greenlit in the first place. No one can deny that
"This movie is straight from the heart. Aside from Star Wars or Batman this was a dream project for Zack. He never really said that outright, but we could tell. And it seems as if the results speak for themselves.He's neither George Lucas on the INDY films (who shepherded the stories and was always on set) or Burton with the 3rd and 4th Batman films (who did absolutely nothing). Rather somewhere in between. He was barely on the set, if at all.
Oh, and I'll say it right here and now: the action sequences in this movie kick the ones on the TDK trilogy straight in the nads.
There is still some some slo-mo, though. "
Since the guy claimed that the design choices were totally Zack, I think we're going to see an emerging of an underrated mind. He's probably going to blow us away.
I agree, but at this point it just seems kind of thrown together and rehashed which really is a shame.
Even if this guy is 'legit', this info isn't shocking or surprising. Over half of the posters in here know that [blackout]Jonah Nolan saved the script from Goyer's poor writing skills.[/blackout]
People really don't like the new poster? I think it's pretty sweet
too many fickle people in the world....I like it!
Yeah...trailers and TV spots have been solid as hell. Posters. Wow.
Yeah we've been talking that for what seems like over a year or more.
same, I got school work + a job that I have to balance, most of the time I'm on here and checking movie listings through my phone....its such a pain lol.
I'm in the good old city of Toronto ......why so many people hate us....I blame on the Maple Leaves lol
Yep.
Jonah, especially, fixed a messy and weak third act according to the murmurs.
I still have my doubts about Johan Nolan writing MOS. I think this is all Goyer.
I guess we're just expecting something amazing considering the people designing these are actually capable of much better work.
