METROPOLIS-NIGHT


Pan down through the heart of this magnificent American City, glowing in the night. Its rush hour, and traffic heavy as can be. The sidewalks crowded with people shuffling by as we focus on a young couple, pushing a baby carriage.

The mother smiles down at her baby, when suddenly she glances at something of camera. Still in one shot, screams erupt from off camera. She,too, screams and turns and runs-her husband snagging the baby-and they join the other and SPRINT DOWN THE STREET from the coming global super-threat.

People dash out of their car doors and windows and join the running-what the hell are they running from? People leap onto car roofs, all sprinting away form something-its like a scene in WAR OF THE WORLDS-2 cops on horses kick them to see whats happening-but out of sheer fear, the horses turn and join the crowd-

A massive BOOM-a hurried whoosh and a huge EXPLOSION and the screams stop and the camera goes to static.

CUT TO:

Pan over the now disaster-zone. 3 square blocks are completely leveled and demolished; was it a bomb? We pan down, to the middle of the street, to see a man standing there. Handsome, tall, built like a house. Clad in black body-armored tights, no cape-this is TY-ZOR. We close up on his face, it’s SILENT.

Did he do this?

Suddenly a whooshing sound from above-his eyes don’t move-neither dos the cameras. His mouth does a sadistic curl. Whatever that whoosh, its what he wanted.

Suddenly we pan back across the street insanely fast, inches above the pavement, facing Ty-zor, to see the back of 2 huge red boots SLAM into the pavement. Slowly we pan up, up the bright red cape, pan around, over the belt, onto the brilliant blue bodysuit-the iconic “S”-and superman face. Determined. Pissed. But this isn’t superman as we last left him, this Superman’s suit it torn, his red cape slashed. A bleeding cut on his forehead, and visible black eye.

He faces at TY-ZOR, like 2 boxers in the instant before round 15. These 2 modern day western gunslingers glare down the abandoned street, and with that, Ty-zor BOUNDS into the sky, Superman screaming after him in pursuit.

The 2 collide and exchange blows while soaring between skyscrapers-people in windows visible watching-throwing power-house punches that would propel a 747 1000 yards. Superman catches a hook on Ty-zor and sends him flying. Ty-zor rallies and grabs Superman’s cape and chucks him threw a building-

INT. BUILDING


60 stories up, in slow-mo, we follow Superman as slams through the wall, and 2 floors of a building going down, people visible getting out of the way. Superman takes out a desk before smashing through a window on the other side of the building

EXT. METROPOLIS-CONTINUOUS


Superman readies himself, and bounds skyward-Ty-zor meets him, and they battle above the city. Superman gets Ty-zor in a full nelson and throws him to the streets-Ty-zor catches himself. Superman rally, flying around a huge sky scrapper and downwards in a huge arc, smashing Ty-zor in the back with a summer-sault kick.

Ty-zor SMASHES down onto a TV-ANTENNA-He brabs the thing by the base, and swings as if it were a baseball bat. He SMASHES SUPERMAN with it, Superman goes flying, and Ty-zor drops it and BOUNDS into the sky-satisfied-

EXT. SKYS/CLOUDS ABOVE EAST COAST-CONTINUOUS


The area where the Atlantic meets the States visible below, sonic booms erupt as Ty-zor-followed by Superman- rocket-zooms down the coast and past the camera at a dizzying speed-he ducks below the clouds.

EXT. DOCKS-CONTINUOUS


Superman touches down at a huge set of docks. Massive cargo ships and boats, cranes, and tons of metal containers abound, Superman uses his X-RAY VISION to search for Ty-zor. But he’s nowhere to be seen. He finds one huge warehouse where he cannot see through it. he speeds up to the door to find the access door ripped off its hinges. He enters.

INT. WAREHOUSE


A long, long hallway with about 20 doors on the left side. Superman tries his x-ray vision, but it doesn’t work.

TY-ZOR(V.O.-whispering just so Superman can here)
Lead walls. Its like your human, isn’t it?

Pissed but determined, Superman proceeds to KICK door one off its hinges. Nothing,

TY-ZOR(v.o.)
Closer…

Superman punches down door number 2. Empty.

TY-ZOR(v.o.)
Closer…

Superman pushes through door number 3, just to see endless maze of boxes.

TY-ZOR(v.o.)
Not yet…

Superman kicks door number 4. Nothing.

TY-ZOR
Almost…

Door number 5. Superman opens it by the handle, only to wish he didn’t

LOIS LANE. GAGED. TIED UP. UPSIDE DOWN. Hanging from a crane over a massive water tub. She’s UNCONSCIOUS.

INT. ROOM


Superman marches into the room, but stops short-inside the tub, and surrounding it on th efllor, are GLOWING GREEN ROCKS.

TY-ZOR(v.o.)
Recognize those?

Superman falls to his knees; losing power. The music swells, epic. The kryptonite having an effect. Ty-zor immerges from the shadows.

TY-ZOR
It’s over, Kal-el.

He KICKS the weakened man of steel and peers over his body. Supermans eyes awash in pain-

TY-ZOR
Cry for me….

Beat

TY-ZOR
“Super”man.

With that Superman SCREAMS and we cut to

INT. CLARKS APARTMENT-MORNING


Another bright, golden sunny day in Metropolis.

on screen text: METROPOLIS-2 WEEKS EARLIER

Clarks apartments a mess; clothes everywhere, dishes, ect. He snores in bed. We see his clock-8:44 A.M. We see Clark **** the SNOOZE switch.

It strikes 8:45 and the alarm goes off, Clark instantly awakening in a panic-

He grabs the clock-

CLARK

Still in one shot, he gets out of bed. His hairs a mess, hes in blue pajamas and slippers, and races into his bathroom, only to immerge 1 second later in full CLARK KENT GET UP, brief case in hand.

Clark continues, finally making it to Jimmy, whose at a computer playing an alien-game.

CLARK

Jimmy doesn’t notice, hes into shooting them aliens.

CLARK

Jimmy ignores him-

Clark taps him on his shoulder. PISSED, Jimmy turns around

JIMMY

Jimmy walks away, as clark walks towards Whites office.

INT. WHITES OFFICE

Clark enters-

White doesn’t look up.

WHITE

CLARK
I know I overslept, but it was the uh, first time Ive been late sir.

White looks up, surprised.

CLARK
Umm, uh ever. Sir.

White stares at something behind and above Clark to the left, clark turns to see what it is, but its nothing.

WHITE
Of course. Anyways Jimmys replaced on the tower opening so you will be going with Richard to the cat-swimming competition down at the harbor this afternoon.

Clark has a funny look on his face-cut to

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER-DAY

Pan down to see this glorious, bronze steel 110 story FREEDOM TOWER. The first 105 stories are skinny, then it expands for the top 5 for a brilliant viewing tower. Below are 1000’s of people, and dozens of press trucks from around the world.We focus on a massive sign saying “METROPOLIS FREEDOM TOWER: GRAND OPENING! HIGHEST BUILDING ON EAST COAST!”

It’s a MAJOR event.

INT. TOWER-OBSERVATION PROMINADE-DAY

The elevator opens and about 25 members of the press step out. They instantly take notice the gorgeous views over looking the city. We find LOIS LANE, followed by JIMMY OLSEN. Lois is in NO awe, she’s been a lot higher. Jimmy backs away, and turns to find a for sale stand with all this ready-to-be-sold FREEDOM TOWER merchandise-He looks around-nobodys looking, and begins stuffing it in his bag-cups, napkins, plates, pens, paper, everything-

Lois spots him-

LOIS(WHISPERS)
Jimmy!

Jimmy shrugs.

JIMMY
What? They know we’re going to take this.

Lois is gonna say something, but the elevator door opens and their tour guides there.




GUIDE
Here we are at the primary attraction of the Freedom Tower. 1200 feet in the sky, overlooking the worlds Greatest and most glorious city. It really is spectacular.

People gather around-cut to-

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER BASE-DAY

A GROUP OF 6 MEN wheel a cart into the store, we see their disguised as PAINTERS.

They get in the elevator, and begin to handing out cans of paint, to which we see are actually BOMBS!

The doors opens, and one man leaves. Then another. Then another.

We see their setting them on 50th, 7th, and 100th floors.

One man sets the timer- 1 minute!

INT. ELEVATOR

The man meet and race downards-

INT. OBSERVATION TOWER

Lois peers out over the city, almost bored-

Cut to a shot of the bomb-30 second-

She turns and goes up to Jimmy, whose snapping pictures.

JIMMY
Having fun miss lane?

She sighs.

Cut to shot of a bomb-20 SECOND!

LOIS
Well when youve been up 10,000 feet, 1000 feet is exactly “fun”.

She smiles.

Cut to a shot of the bomb-10 SECONDS!

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER

The 5 men make it outside and SPRINT out of the building

The corwd takes notice and point, as police begin to move towards them-

-a newscaster video taping them says “wonder whats got them scared?”

KA-BOOM!

The 50th story bomb EXPLODES-

INT. OBSERVATION DECK-DAY

The entire room JOLTS 10 feet to the right-Lois is THROWN OFF HER FEET and into the wall-jimmy loses his balance-everyone falls-

INT. DAILY PLANET

Clark super-hearing picks it up-the screams-the explosion-

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER-DAY

Smoke oozing from the 50th floor; people scream and point-areporters voice fades -

REPORTER(v.o.)
It appears theres been some kind of explosion at the Freedom Tower-

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

Peopel scramble around as the room keeps shifting-Jimmy loses his camera and falls over the edge of the rail-

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER-DAY

Close up on Jimmy as he drops his camera- we follow it the ENTIRE WAY DOWN as it shatters ontop of a cop car; -

INT. DAILY PLANET-100TH FLOOR HALLWAY-DAY

DESRTED, CLARK ENETERS, AND SPRINTS TOWARDS THE WALL-SIZED WINDOW AT THE END OF THE HALLWAY, TRANSFORMING INTO SUPERMAN AND SHATTERING THE WINDOW, the air pressure SUCKING EVEWRYTHING OUT OF THE ROOM!

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER-DAY

The entire second half is tiltd a bit to the side as if ready to fall-the crowd SCREAMS as a huge trail of BLACK SMOKE immerges from the base of the tower. Fire engines race to the scene, newspaper reporters vido tape, and a kid point to the tower-it continues to tilt-

INT. OBSERVATION TOWER

It STOPS tilting, after what seemed to be like an eternity-Lois and several others inside reach out to Jimmy and the other trapped against the balcony rail, and pull them into thew room and shut the door so nobody will fall out.

The tour guide is paniced, but tried to appear calm-

GUIDE
Everybody, please relax, were going to be fine, just allow me ot check the elevator-

He opens the door with his hands, to see the 2 SNAPPED wire; the elevators falle down. Their trapped.

INT. TOWER INFASTRUCTURE

We see it-the observation deck is tied down by several huge cables that are pressing against the wall-the top part of the wall GIVES-

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

Everything drops and tilts 20 feet-like a roller coaster just after hitting a fall-

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER

The crowd screams as the observation tower dangled, and the entire upper half lurches downwards slowly…

People run, trying to find cover. Debris falls below-taking out trees nd signs- Fire engines and police cars and helicopters arrive on the scene, as we see people form the below floors fleeing. But amidst the chaos, a kid stands point-

KID
Look! Up in the sky!

WOMAN
It’s a bird!

A police officier-

OFFICE
It’s a plane!

WOMAN(like a prayer)
No, its SUPERMAN!

Superman rocket booms in a blur over the peoples heads-

CUT TO A CLOSE UP OF A WINDO Won the 75th floor-
BOOM!

THE 75TH FLOOR BOMB GOES OFF-people scream and run for cover-

Everything lurches more-the upper half looks like its going to break in 2!

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

The second bomb goes off- everybodys thrown around as the sink 25 feet and now are half way turned over. The floor and ceiling are the walls-it finally stop's moving-Lois is flown about and grabs hold of a chairdangling, holding herself up-it gives way-she PLUMMET-smashing into the think window. A piece of glass-that is cracking-is all that separates her from certain death as it begins to tilt again-

INT. TOWER INFASTRUCTURE-

The walls continues to crack and give-the wires breaking it apart-

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

Lois-'s flys up, and then smashes back down on the glass-her eyes instantly open for a second, to see the blur racing towards them-the music swells-she knows they’ll be rescued-

But she shuts them as the building sways AGAIN-

EXT. TOWER-DAY

2 massive, musclar hands cement themselves against the tower-pushing-

SUPERMAN pushes the very bottom of the tower upright and back into its foundation-

Superman flys up, grabbing the base of the 50th floor and BLOWING OUT THE FIRE-the smoke disappears. He blows out the 75th fire, and grabs the base of the building and holds it right up, pushing it right up. He melts the broken wires with his laser eyes and molds them back together.

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

They tilt a bit back, they can feel the building being righted-a sense of relief seems to flow through the crowd-

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER

Close up on the 100th floor-BOOM!

The final bomb goes off, and everybody screams-supermans blown into the building-and the ENTIRE OBSERVATION PLATFORM falls off completely, plummeting, with bits of the building racing towards the ground.

INT. OBSERVATION TOWER

Everybody screams and jolts and flys around as they race towards the ground-lois is PANICED

EXT. FREEDOM TOWER

Superman immerges, flying downwards while simultaneously freezing the top of the tower to prevent anything from falling, and melting the other falling debris with his eyes.

He races to the deck-it plummets, screaming down, leaving a trail of black smoke in its wake-

Superman rocket booms upwards and catches up, and pulls ahead,dives infront of it, stopping it just FEET AWAY FROM THE GROUND.

INT. OBSERVATION DECK

The people have come to a stop-they look at eachother-relieved, save.

Jimmy is there with Lois; looking around,paniced-

JIMMY
I think I lost my camera.

 

[Excel]

EXT. GROUND-CONTINUOUS

Superman tilts it, and gently sets it down, the clapping crowd cheers and runs up, as reporters sprint up, as well paramedics.

Superman hovers down, smashing a whole into the window, and bending the deck into a ramp leading to the ground.

CUT TO-GROUND-MOMENTS LATER

People in ambulances, towels-fire fighters clearing the rubble. Superman strolls up to LOIS, who we see is on her cell phone.

When she sees him coming, she hang up.

Superman shoots her a look, shes seems to be in awe.

SUPERMAN
You ok?

Lois smiles at him-

LOIS
Me? im fine. Jimmys a little shaken up-

she looks over and points, and we see Jimmy shivering in a heat blankett-

SUPERMAN
Sorry I oculd stop the terrorists; the police took care of them though.

The conversations oging nowhere, but Superman clearly wants it to continue , so he says what is really on his mind.

SUPERMAN
So how have you been?

LOIS
Fine-

she seems to extend the word as she says it-

SUPERMAN
Thats good-its good to see you Lois; I've got to go though-

LOIS
Ya know, we should talk. Soon-weve got somethign private things-

V.O.
Lois-

SUPERMAN
ill see you around-

Lois turns to see who was calling her-Its RICHARD WHITE, HER FIANCE, who is rushing towards her, carrying their 7 year old Son JASON.

RICHARD
Lois! Oh my god, are you ok!

He gives her a hug and a kiss, and Jason gives her a hug.

JASON
Hi Mommy.

LOIS
Hello sweetie-

she gives him a kiss on his forehead-

RICHARD
When we heard what happened- you had us worried sick. We heard the entire the tower had blown up. It was terrorists, huh? Good thing the police were able to catch those bastards-

JASON
ohhhhh!

RICHARD
Sorry-

LOIS
Well, you dont need to worry bout me as long as Superman around.

She smiles and laughs to herself; yet its obvious the words strike a chord somewhere inside of her.

RICHARD
yeah, thank god for him. We should probably head home-

LOIS
I have to get back to the Planet and write an article on this for the paper-

RICHARD
Well you can do that at home-

LOIS
Well I have all my notes at the office-

RICHARD
we can stop by and pick them up-

Jason peers up, and points and proclaims

JASON
Superman!

Lois and Richard turn and look at Jason, and then at SUPERMAN, Who see is hovering away. He waves, and ushers a "Good Bye" to them.

Jason smiles and waves back, Superman bellows a "Good bye, Jason!" and then fully dissappears.

Richard weakly smiles, and shoots lois a look.

RICHARD
sure loves superman nowadays.

LOIS(kidding)
wonder where he gets it from?

RICHARD
Look Ive got the car parkd right over there-

LOIS
So's mine. Ill go and write it up and Ill meet you guys at home. Ill grab some chinese.

Corben doesnt hesitate-he shoves the man very hard-the man falls through the door and out into the road as Corben moves into the drivers seat. He shuts the door, and locks it, and pulls away.

EXT. DAILY PLANET-NIGHT

pan around the epic globe, and down a few floors and up to a window, to find LOIS LANE sitting at a computer, typing.

SUPERMAN(o.s.)
Good evening.

We see he's floating right outside the window.

Lois looks up; a little startled but excited.

LOIS
Superman. Hi.

In the backround, we see there are office clerks who spot him at the window and point. The love theme subtly plays-

SUPERMAN(confidently)
Well Miss Lane, you said you had some things you would like to talk to me about. So here I am.

Lois looks back at the two office clerks.

LOIS
I also said in private-

Superman shoots her a look-

EXT. DAILY PLANET ROOF-NIGHT

Superman-Lois in his arms-hovers up from the side of the building, and then gently sets her down on the roof. The spinning globe provides light.

The 2 seperate, then get turn to face eachother again.

Hes fine. He doesnt know a thing. though he is your biggest fan.

Superman smiles.

LOIS

Lois looks at the ground, as we see Superman staring off the building, over the side.

SUPERMAN

Lois frowns.

LOIS
No, you shouldn't have.

Superman turns to her.

LOIS

CUT TO:

A image of EARTH.

Perfectly still in outer space, a peaceful image.

Suddenly, a large, rocky formation enters the screen, going OVER US, away from earth-slowly pan to reveal-

NEW KRYPTON.

Nestled amognst the asteroids-wider to reveala huge, METALLIC ship cruising towards it. this is brainiacs SKULL SHIP.

INT. SKULL SHIP

Star wars ish. controls and gismos everywhere. TY-ZOR- A handsome, 30 year clad in black body armored tights, walks down a hallway. He punches in keys into a control panel on the wall and a door rockets openm, to reveal the SCREENING ROOM.

INT. SCREENING ROOM-CONTINUOUS

OUTERSPACE-LATER

Ty-zor hovers towards New Krypton. He touches down gently on the rocky surface, and looks around. He spies between the crackes, spotting the glowing green kryptonite from within.

He smiles.

He punches the rocks, slashes and tears, creating a large whole, revealing more and more kryptonite.

He jumps up and rockets down into the surface as hard as he can creating a massive crater.

The dust floats away, revealing KRPYTONITE.

INT. SCREENING ROOM-CONTINUOUS

Ty-zor bounds in, covered in dust-excitd-

LOIS
Good night.

she rests her head and turns out the light.

 

[super-t]

sweetness, awsomeness, and so on. i really want to to see that battle at the begining. super good job.

 

[Excel]

thanks, ill keep it up!

 

[Shamik]

I've enjoyed reading it so far, but that opening scene seems really familiar. Is that an adaptation of Abrams' script?

 

[DogofKrypton]

No thanks. And the first few paragraphs would be considered plagirism, unless WB contracted for you to do a re-write.

 

[Excel]

obviously this isnt anything official; its exactly how id do the sequel.

 

[Showtime]

I was going to say something about Flyby, but I let it slide. It was a good read though.

 

[hurley711]

The only good thing about this was your avatar. Way to steal the whole opening from Abrams script

 

[igotatromboner]

Sometimes I wish the internet had a stick. A stick to beat people like you with ideas like that. First of all, the Abrams script was crap so don't copy it. Secondly, you suck. Don't ever waste anymore time writing anything comicbook related. You just don't get it.

 

[igotatromboner]

Oh, and Ty Zor. Edward Norton? You pick a gifted and talented actor like him to play a Superman villian? The only exposure to Edward Norton that you've had is Fight Club. What scene in Fight Club made you decide that Edward frickin' Norton would be the perfect choice for someone to go toe-to-toe with Superman? How tall is Routh? Norton comes across as a small guy, so why would you ever think he's the type of guy that would look good on screen fighting Superman?

 

[Excel]

i chose norton due to his performance in american history x, dumbass.

your a ****** dude, you can work around height problems easily in movies. and anybody can work out, look at thomas haden church.

aside frm that, he isnt short anyways. he's 6'1 out of shoes, given him big boots and camera tricks and hell match routh fine. i chose him cause he can be very intimdating, cold, ruthles, and menacing all at once.

 

[igotatromboner]

"your a ****** dude" Wow, I just won on grammar alone. Next time you call me a dumbass try to speak correctly. "You're a ******."

Norton isn't small, but he comes across like he is on film. Why would someone of his caliber be interested in being a crappy villian that was conveniently written for a script so out of date and obviously copied by you. Ty Zor would be the worst idea since giant spiders and gay robots. I like Norton. He's one of the most talented young actors working today. But nothing in American History X should make you think Norton would play a good Superman villian like Ty Zor. You sound like one of those guys that throws big names for roles that you would like to see on screen. Norton wouldn't consider taking a crap role like that and you should know it. Ty Zor is a one dimensional character that you want played by an actor that only shines with a character with layers. The entire reason you want Norton in a Superman film would be out of the window by casting him as a crap character like Ty Zor.

if he got enough $$$$$$$ hed consider it so shut da **** up

 

[igotatromboner]

No no no. You don't tell me to shut the **** up because I owned you. I'm telling you straight up that "your" script sucks and your casting choice sucks. The things Norton brings to the table as an actor are not the things needed for Ty Zor. Now take back what you've said because nobody thinks you're right.

Well I'm working on a rough draft right now for a sequel script that should work well within the world of Superman Returns but also broaden out a bit to other areas not explored yet by Singer.

igotatromboner, why the hell are you freaking out on Excel? You're not being funny and you're making a complete idiot out of yourself. If you don't like the script, don't post in the thread. And, if you do, don't come down on him because you don't like some ideas. I don't see you posting any scripts, so until you become a great writer, you don't have room to act the way you are.
Oh and by the way, your name is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I hope you got a few laughes out of that one.

And to Excel: I like the script a lot. Ty-Zor is a cool villain, from what I read so far. Keep posting!

First of all, your name sucks too. Mine is way cooler than yours and everyone would agree. Secondly, Excel started with the insults. If Excel wants to "write" a script then he should. He modified the Abrams script. It isn't his script. Ty Zor isn't his character. You don't get to come here and try to defend some *****e that ripped off a script and try and insult me. I won't be posting scripts because it's a complete waste of time. Posting fan fiction in forums isn't how a movie script gets noticed. Had Excel brought something new to the table and not ripped off another script he would have gotten words of encouragement. But no, he didn't do that. He posted the stupid script. He suggested a talented actor for a crap character. He got owned and he knows it. You don't want to start this crap on a forum. I've already dealt with his crap and I'll deal with yours too.

I'm just wondering when you thought you could try and act all cool by telling people where they can and can't post? And, if posting scripts is such a waste of time, why do you waste your's by reading them and insulting their writers? This is not a professional piece of work, obviously Excel knows that. If he wanted to get a job, I'm sure he wouldn't have posted it on these forums. These boards, in case you didn't realize, is a place where members can express there opinions and ideas. There aren't any professionals here looking for jobs.

And, why is it so hard for you to grasp the idea that Ty-Zor was not created by Excel? The opening of Abram's screenplay worked well with Excel's version, so he used it. He's not selling his ideas, just expressing them, thus making the fact that Ty-Zor and parts of Abram's script are borrowed exceptable.

Just because you don't like Norton as Brainiac, doesn't mean you "owned" him. You're real cool, aren't you? You disagreed with his casting choice; you definitely owned him!

Listen, if you want to try and be all big and bad, insulting a fan fic writer isn't a great way to get a reputation. I swear, you don't look cool or tough or whatever you're trying to get out of all of this. You're embarrassing yourself, and to tell you the truth, I'm almost a bit embarrassed for you.

What gives you the right to freak out on someone who uses other writer's ideas and merges it with his own story? Writers, especially those who do it as a hobby and not a profession, do it all the time. And in the professional world of movies, what makes this case of borrowing any different from a writer using the ideas of an old comic-book arc written by another man or woman?

So, I'm sure you will have some smart*** remark for me later on, but before you post your reply, I sugesst you rethink your argument.
