Reintroducing Superman: An Open Discussion

[rocco2216]

I dont want them to rush too fast, no matter how bad I want the film.

Oh me neither, I want a good film too. But a film taking 3 years for example or more doesn't always guarantee a good film. Just look at Spider-Man 3.

 

[BH/HHH]

So theres no announcement then? I knew there wouldnt be.

Slashfilms were wrong

 

[BestGirl]

That would grant him ludicrous speed, IMO.

Well, he could make say one international rescue a day. I think that would be reasonable.

Although GreenKToo's idea that he movies so fast he appears to be in two places at once could also work. That too would draw suspicion away from Clark Kent.

So thers no announcement then? I knew there wouldnt be.

Slashfilms were wrong

There was supposed to be an announcement today?

 

[SuperDaniel]

One? Bah! He should be faster than that. He should go to Japan in like 10 mins max. But that would change the climate of Earth, right? LOL

/film isn't "wrong", your just a day late. Plus they didn't say they were going to announce a confirmation just news related to the Superman movie.

Superman News

Superman News

And theres been none

 

[BH/HHH]

hang on didnt they say there would be after that? Im confuddled

 

[craigdbfan]

They got a non answer from James which at least indicates there have been talks between McTeigue and WB. Not only that but it correlates with what IESB reported not to long ago.

News isn't only confirmations and press releases its still news when it comes to relating to the Untitled SM film.

Superman News

Hell, the way I read it, it sounds like an unofficial confirmation if that makes any sense. t: I mean there's Robert's scoop, Variety saying that a Superman reboot is in the works, Brandon Routh's comment about a Superman film having new momentum, and James McTiegue's coy tease, Jamie and Show's sources saying that Grant Morrison is involved story wise on the next film. It all adds up in my opinion. But maybe I'm being too optimistic.

 

[BH/HHH]

But after that interview someone said there would be some Superman news today, so thats after that interview.

I just took that McTiegue comment that he didnt wanna dispel all the rumours.

So are you expecting a McTiegue Superman Movie starring Brandon Routh as Superman?

Of course he didn't want to dispel that one, because it's true.
You think he lied?

 

[BH/HHH]

Well he didnt say he was. I guess I just keep getting disapointed so I don't get my hopes up too much lol.

 

[rocco2216]

So are you expecting a McTiegue Superman Movie starring Brandon Routh as Superman?

Hmmm, no. If WB really wants to keep Brandon Routh, they will. We also don't know who told Brandon that a Superman film was gaining momentum. It could have been Alan Horn or Jeff Robinov themselve or anyone else from WB, or it just could have been anyone else in Hollywood telling them this. Who knows

 

[craigdbfan]

But after that interview someone said there would be some Superman news today, so thats after that interview.

You misread that was never the case.

I just took that McTiegue comment that he didnt wanna dispel all the rumours.

Well he shot down Magneto and Plastic Man immediately yet remained extremely vague with the Superman question.

Answers will be revealed in due time I suppose.

When one does detective work and reads between the lines, the no so obvious answer may become the obvious answer right in front their eyes.....

I supose, guess I'm just impatient.

I hope to god we hear something soon.

 

[rocco2216]

Oh yeah man, I hear ya. It's completely understandable and we all have a very good reason to not get our hopes up. How many times in the past has there been Superman "news" and it's ended up being debunked? A lot, unfortunately. But, for example, look at Robert Downey Jr's answere to that reporter who asked him if Mickey Rourke was playing Crimson Dynamo or Whiplash. Same kind of reaction that James McTiegue gave Peter from Slash Film, pretty much.

Exactly

You can tell how tired I am that just confused the feck outta me lol

Well I hope to god we hear something soon. I'll be also crossing my fingers that Routh is Supes again.

Yeah...these guys never avoid or stretch the truth for self promotion.

 

[rocco2216]

Yeah...these guys never avoid or stretch the truth for self promotion.

Well yeah, that could be the reason, unfortunately. Like I said, maybe I'm just being too optimistic. You think he's pulling a Mark Millar, Show?

 

[rocco2216]

Yeah...these guys never avoid or stretch the truth for self promotion.

Then again, Robert Sanchez is 100% convinced that his scoop is true and feels that no one else needs to confirm it. That's how confident. And this matches up with that, so who knows.

 

[rocco2216]

Yeah...these guys never avoid or stretch the truth for self promotion.

Well, if that's the case, then wouldn't he have done that for the Plastic Man and Magneto rumors as well?
