Thor. All three houses and the diner were completely demolished. The entire city, ruined.

And a Dr. Pepper machine.

And a coffee mug

 

[DarthSkywalker]

And a coffee mug

Mug was already destroyed. But they did nail a few cars.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

oh hell....

 

[TheNextNolan22]

And a few windows.

Apparently, media sites got an e-mail confirming the runtime of 143 minutes.

 

[Manosman]

143 mins

 

[DarthSkywalker]

And the 130min team goes down, and they go down hard.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

so the running time we heard from Zack Snyder was wrong?!?!

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Not entirely. He could have meant "130+ minutes" minus the credits.

 

[DaJanksta]

143 would be sexy

 

[Notrip]

so looks like Man of Steel spot 4 is at 760,741 and most likely will hit 1 million views like spot 2! doesn't mean anything in terms of box-office, but it is still pretty awesome though!

 

[Manosman]

It could have been a rough cut of the film, or he was just estimating. Underestimating.

 

[Dark Sentinel]

Anything to Janksta would be sexy

Well, Watchmen has the destruction of New York. TDKR has the whole bomb threat, but it doesn't really have any visual impact or destruction (I assume that is what you are asking about). As far as I can recall, the films have always been situations like TDKR where things are adverted in the nick of time but without any real damage or there is destruction on small, localized scale like in the Avengers.

Yeah, I hadn’t watched “Watchmen” so that’s news to me. But other than that, yeah, when I think about it, it’s like everything you just mentioned. So MOS might be the first Comic Book Genre/Superhero film where we get to see some large scale destructions taking place within a City (and not a town in New Mexico.lol).

cool...a guesstimate I guess

 

[DarthSkywalker]

so the running time we heard from Zack Snyder was wrong?!?!

The cut was so good, he couldn't even tell the time.

 

[Notrip]

yeah he was probably just giving a round number, he said "around 130" so the actual run-time of non-credits could be 135 or so

 

[DarthSkywalker]

They call it the Destroyer for a reason.

 

[Andreth]

Holy Crap!
I read it as 1hr 43 minutes and I almost had a heart attack!

phewww!

I don't think I've ever seen a TV spot get 1 million+ views on Youtube. Not even all the IM3 TV spots. Like you said, won't have anything to do with B.O. success, but it's still cool.

Lol I have standards!

Congrats to you sir for successfully steering the thread back on track. Many thanks

And that is awesome news

 

[Notrip]

yep! he was like oh, crap how long was that, I'll guesstimate! 130.

 

[Herolee10]

I can’t really view the whole Destroyer sequence as anything really threatening because we didn’t really see any casualties of any sort take place in that town and there were hardly any civilians presented being in the town to begin with.lol I mean, a few buildings got blown up but I wouldn’t define the destruction of that town being anywhere as close as the one shot of Black Zero blowing a good portion of Metropolis down the ground completely.

and a potential second TV spot closing in on a million, Crazy!
