well hunter, like i said before superman has limitiless strength in the movies, so Metallo would break his robotic hand if he tried to punch supes. Or supes could blast him away from space, or use super speed and etc [their are so many ways superman can beat metallo is funny]

Hence the Kryptonite heart...........know what your talking about before talking!!!!!!
 
On that note, Id be all for Darkseid in the sequel......

This needs to be the end for Lex Luthor. I don't expect him back again, and without Lex, Metallo can't carry a film.

True, but that's too "Nuclear Man" for my taste. It's better off to save the corny supervillains for the sequel - here's hoping Kal-El brings something back to Earth from his travels..........

How are they anymore "corny" than Superman himself ?:confused:

He has a Kryptonite heart,not to mention im not saying he should be central but someone to test Superman one on one rather than catching planes and what not,or hell include both

Darkseid will never be seen while Singer is making Superman films
 
If the movie follows the ending to the novel....The next Superman film will likely feature Brainiac.

Hit me with a spoiler then

I wonder, just a little bit, why Braniac couldn't have been in the film.............

because singer doesn't know who brainiac is because he wasn't in donner's movies. duh.

There something...forming in space, using Kryptonian technology, growing...possibly forming an intelligence.

It'd be cool if they link Brainiac with the crystal technology.....but my guess is a new planet Krypton is being created with Brainiac as the central core; An AI being formed.

so it would seem he won't be like TAS version but more a computer of sorts
 
There's a rumour that Supes brings back Braniac accidentally from his trip.

The 2 writers know who Brainiac and the other villians are well, they made that clear in the moviehole interview...along with their reasons for using Luthor alone in this first film. They read the comics to get a feel for how do handle these characters.

They did the same with X-men and even there; Singer had no reservations with using villians who are very comicbook-like in style....he was just adament about making the first film into Superman VS Lex....to kick off the franchaise on familiar ground.

Darkseid isnt out as a possibility but it doesnt seem likely as alot of fans want the Kirby properties handled seperately in a New Gods film and feel it wouldnt be adequtely dealt with in a Superman film.
 
Ahh come one, they don't REALLY know who Braniac is......they just heard his name being tossed around at Comic Con!!!!

If he is the product of the crystal technology in space as the book suggests, he could be a god. Knowledge and power amassed to unimaginable levels. It will be quite interesting to see.
 
i want a team up in the swquel wit hlex and some supervillain. to be honest i dont want mettalo because he is not smart enough. the next villain must be mega smart. so i ohpe they will writte a good script.

the best would be brainiac. he would be smart,strong and mybe we would have some flachbacs from krypton.

it would be cool to make the supervillian a tragic figure that lex is manipulating. that's how metallo was in the cartoon. oh well.

i just want him to have that creepy voice and background music like in the cartoon.
 
Brainiac seems the most obvious if they use that Novel ending. I dont think any other mainstream Superman rogue would make sense in the context of that situation.

Its difficult to tell whether theyll write Brainiac teaming up with Lex though. I dont see it as likely. Thats already been done way too many times.
 
They should have Superman take on Morgan Edge come sequel time, in my humble opinion. Good day.

It will likely be the other way around.... it always is.

They probably left secondary villians; Metallo, Parasite, Edge, Intergang...etc to be used for the video games and animated releases.

They did confirm there would be an animated release (or releases) tied to SR, coming soon. Obviously tapping into the Animatrix market.

you have a good point. it would be good if the fans care for the villain.
