Man Of Steel Trailer Crowd Reactions Thread

Alright… Here GOES.

So, I saw the Hobbit the other night with my friend Knobby on Friday. Now being the wupped self he was, he brings with his Morbidly obese girlfriend. Knobby is sort of a quiet fellow you see, he hurt his knee in a Rugby game 4 years ago, and has not been them same since, even though he is about 6’5" and 300 pound man mountain. So, he’s been dating this complexion challenged Manatee for a while now. She’s like the Emperor from Star wars, but uglier due to the massive facial acne and dark whiskers growing out of a mole that might as well be a conjoined twin. Having her with us is painful. Its like seeing your friend having his gonads ruptured in slow motion by a leviathan from the Barrier.

So anyway, me and Knobby was all stuck in one of those "what do you wanna do?", "Dur I dunno, what do you wanna do?", convos, when I suggested we see a movie about midgets. Now, Knobby is a nice fellow, but he loves nothing more than giggling about "lil’ folks, so he was sold. That’s when Ursula the sea witch called him up and threatened to wither his soul or some **** if he did not drive over to her likely condemned dwelling place and pic her up.

We get there and load her in the side door, and after an impressive effort we got the vehicle to begin rolling. It was cold out, and the engine has some trouble, specially with the three of us heavyweights on board.

Now we get to the theatre, and there was this cute girl working the concessions, and to get her number I had to pretend to not be with Knobby, not because of him, but the creature from the Succubus lagoon.

So we load into the packed theatre, and found a spot for three near the highest railing in the theatre room. Got sorta dizzy looking down.

We see the other trailers and then finally, it is JUST THERE. The Man of Steel trailer in all its epicness. The Audience is Silent, and I just utter one little phrase. "I’m so glad they cast henry Cavill". That was all it took, and Ursula the sociopath Manatee stood her rottenness up, getting right in front of me, causing me to miss the trailer. It was like she was using her girth to blot out the sun. She screams in my face "**** YOU! YOU must have KNOWN I had a Crush on Brandon since the last one and its fan’s like YOU demanding a reboot that I’ll NEVER get a sequel!!!!" She now had the theatres entire attention, as she went insane on me. I was in shock, like a dear in headlights, not knowing what to say, and she reached forth her sausage like fingers and grabbed my throat, her bloated form starting to smoother me. I looked like a guy out on the surface of Mars with no air flailing in aggony beneath the Ogre's clutches.

I rolled my eyes toward Knobby who was in just as much shock seeing his wicked giantess girlfriend attempting to Murder his only reach Pal. She had already ruined the trailer for the whole theatre, the crazed fan attempting to crush my windpipe. She sneered at Knobby "Don’t you dare ****ing move or I swear I’ll dump you right here, leaving you forever and Incel!"

Then it happened. Knobby snapped like Darth Vader on the Emperor. With inhuman strength he hoisted the living mountain of zits into the air and cast her down over the railing. We could hear her frothing curses until she landed into what looked like a trash dumpster at the bottom. She likely survived and skulked away but its now over between her and Knobby.

I took him out to the lobby, and with his newfound confidence we went out clubbing, and he got numbers from 3 hot babes, all of whom agreed that Henry Cavill is sexy, when he showed them on his smart phone.

Later we snuck back into the theatre, and watched the trailer, uninterrupted by any sociopath SR fans. The whole theatre Cheered for a second time, and Knobby giggled in delight at the Hobbits. Particularly the heavy set fellow. It was a great night. One to be remembered in all Middle Earth.


I must have laughed for 5 min straight!!! LMAO I know the feeling of having someone with you at a movie voicing there retarted opinions! You have some great wording when discribing people! LOL

Thanks 4 THE LAUGH


:)
 
Finally got around to seeing The Hobbit (regular frame rate) and they played the teaser in front of it. I can't express how pissed I was. Not just because I didn't get to experience it in a theater setting, but because it's such a huge wasted opportunity by WB. This was the best theater at one of the largest cities in the US and they can't show the proper version? I understand that the theater has some say in what trailers are played, but damn it, WB, you had a major opportunity to display this amazing trailer in front of the biggest theater-going crowd you'll have for the next 6 months and you blew it completely.

PS, the Hobbit was fantastic. I was really surprised at how good it was.
 
Holy ****, the above post was a funny, man! I'm still not sure if it actually happened or not.. :lmao:

This guy really should write short stories. Totally reminded me of Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy for some reason. Priceless. :lmao:

I wish I could signature this entire post. You've won the thread.[/closethread]
 
I want part II or something. When they actually go see MOS.
 
Hahaha "Knobby Returns"! I almost choked. I loved his friends name. It was perfect. I wan't to be his friend.

Pretty impressive. WB must be shocked-I often get the feeling they underestimate Superman.The reaction to the trailer may cause them to reevaluate Pacific rim as their main movie for 2013 because it looks like the public is as of now more excited to see Man of steel

This is really cool to read. As a life long fan of Superman it's feels good. Lets see how WB treat this reaction from the public. Maybe a Super Bowl spot this time around.
 
it boggles my mind why they are letting some theaters show the TEASER or no trailer at all.

you'd think it would be a mandate from WB that the new MOS trailer be attached to ALL showings of the Hobbit........

it's like.......hello?? it's so logical.........oh wait.......this is WB......
 
Yeah I really don't understand it either. I went into the same movie's previews, one on regular 3D and the other on 3D IMAX in the same theater and they only had it on the IMAX. I asked one of the employees how the IMAX showing was doing and she said that alot of people are passing on that showing because it's too expensive. And When I went in there she was right bc there had to be maybe 10 people in there.
 
yeah......that's stupid. I don't even have an IMAX in my town.........and not everyone wants to go to IMAX. as you said..........it's extra money.

I mean......the Hobbit is a WB film. What are 2 big WB films coming out next year? MOS and PR.

so, it would make all the sense in the world for WB to mandate that those 2 trailers are attached to all showings of the Hobbit. y'know.......to promote your own movies!!!

ay.......
 
I would really like to think there is some grand plan for the whole thing... and maybe that's why I don't work for WB bc I can't think of what that is.
 
Who said wb placed Pacific Rim over Man of Steel?That's just pure speculation.

Who said wb underestimated Superman?That's just pure speculation.

It's silly how people write stuff without any real information to back it up.

You can't go by what you think and sound off as if it's tru.
 
I really hope this does well so we can get a trilogy. I also hope this makes WBs rethink rushing into Justice League.

Actually I think MOS doing well well only encourage them to jump into Justcce league.

Here's my thoughts though, Justice League will make money anyway but why through Batman and Superman together when they can make money on their own? Plus look at the Dark Knight trilogy, it was a massive hit wouldn't WBs want that for Superman? I actually think it makes more sense to shelve Justice League and have a proper run at the solo projects.

Don't get me wrong I'm not against Justice League but I'd rather have a Superman trilogy first and Justice League later.

I agree with wanting a superman trilogy first and a justice league later.I do think it makes more sense to shelve JL and have a proper run at the solos.

But Greed talks.Why wld Wb settle for having MOS alone when they can go for JL as well?Thats 2 hit franchises the equivalent of their own Ironman and Avengers.WB is in serious need of tentpoles after TDKR and Harry potter ended.
