All Things Superman: An Open Discussion - - - - - - Part 71

[Rowsdower!]

we could have gotten a better logo than this.

This is terrible.

I don't think it's terrible but why did they cut out part of the 75 like that? It looks weird.

@FicoCangiano 2h
A friend's reaction to a certain movie coming out in a couple of weeks: "I was expecting a 9, but it was seriously a 10."


‏@juanmadpelicula 2h
I would say 11, but thats just me. LOL
@Juanmadpelicula is the guy who saw the movie yesterday

from the reaction thread, more great news!!

I'm just brainstorming something that could appease everyone on here for their Superman-punching/action fix, as well as something that keeps with the grounded aesthetic laid down by Snyder.

Just to be clear I'm not saying humanoid size robots like what we might be getting in MOS, or like I,Robot.

I'm talking something like this (it doesn't even need to be a robot, it could be manned):

Spoiler

It's even glowing green cause it has a Kryptonite fuel cell.

I fully understood your piont.But we are already getting a giant Robot Monster in MOS-Black zero and a bunch of flying humanoid Robots and loads of hitech armor and tech-piont is lots of machine threats and that why
I thought it wld be best to go mostly organic for the sequel.
Im not jumping on the Robot idea for the same reason you dont want an Alien invasionon in part 2.

@Rowsdower It's where the 7 and the 5 overlap, but I agree it doesn't look right.

About the embargo, we have members here that will be seeing it on the 5th, so we won't have to wait nearly as long to get proper reactions

 

[Dragon_316ca]

Anyone know what time the MoS press junket in LA will begin?

I feel like I'm been put on ignore here. lol.

I don't think it's terrible but why did they cut out part of the 75 like that? It looks weird.

They overlapped the two numbers. The 'cut out' is that overlap.

The logo looks like Superman is trying to sell iPods in 2006.

These guys have seen the movie. Spoiler alert-it sticks faithfully to the common cannon.

Also, Shannon says that "Henry was BORN to play Superman." Which is as close to an honest endorsement as we're every gonna get pre-embargo.

And this ladies and gentlemen is why we have the BEST superman that we could have possibily gotten..

Cavill articulates that responsibility best: “When it comes to seeing a kid who actually believes you're Superman – he doesn’t see Henry Cavill, the actor playing Superman, it’s, 'Daddy, it’s Superman,' and he’s hiding his face. He’s scared and then he wants to..." Cavill trails off, regrouping. "Little babies reaching out for you. That is nuts because the responsibility attached to that. They’re going to have that experience for the rest of their life -- when they met Superman, not when they met Henry Cavill who is an actor playing Superman. I think that’s really important for such an incredible icon, to do that just right. If you mess that up, you’re the wrong guy for the role.”

That's cool. I get it. I'm not in love with the idea either, but that's only cause I'm the loser who's fine with seeing Superman just avert natural disasters and terrorist (Luthor) plots. As long as it's with Henry and Amy and whoever big-name they get for Luthor I'm there.

That's the thing, people here cite SR as this total failure because there was no punching, but it was really just because Brandon and Kate were unlikable characters, and Spacey was hindered by doing a throwback to campy Lex.

Meh.

Its alright Smallville. Your opinion is yours man.

I LIKED Routh's Clark. His Superman was..spotty, but that's how the character was written. I like the idea of Brainiac being saved for a World's Finest film

Agreed!!

 

[Bran-El]

The way Routh was being filmed from certain angles made me think the attempt was to make him look like CR. I can't blame BR personally because he looks the right age right now to play Superman. But I'm glad we're getting Cavill. I mean what can I say, the franchise needed a reboot. I do feel for Routh however. It must be frustrating to play a role like Superman and go down as a one-off.

Wow... Read a spoiler from that first link that I wish I wouldn't have read... Do not look at it unless you want a major spoiler...

How do you know they are telling the truth?

Ah, yeah, I can see it now but it just makes it look weird.

 

[GreenKToo]

I know all actors sometimes say things that dont really mean about a film to gain support, but it does seem that its not just about the paycheck to him.

 

[JOE]

I'm dying for the moment someone spills the beans about MOS...

 

[TheFlamingCoco]

^ You mean SPOILS it

Spoiler

They basically contemporize the concept of Jor-El putting himself (or a copy of himself) inside the crystals. Here he does so to the ship/Fortress. Not unlike a flash drive.

Thanks for the tip.
I didnt read any of those spoilers .
it is very clear the writers of this article didnt see the film .
the last line of the article says there are too many unconfirmed reports of DC Cameos to be sure of anything .
They may be repeating what others who saw the fim have told them,
but they clearly didnt see the film or they would know what the confirmed cameos or easter eggs were.

You have nobody to blame but yourself. It even says "highlight for specific spoilers". Exactly what did you think that meant? You people kill me. You scream that you don't want to be spoiled and yet go out of your way to highlight spoiler material.
