The Daily Planet - Superman News and Speculation Thread (🚨TAG SPOILERS🚨)

[STARMAN]

They clarified the post is unrelated to the film. Partner is about to give birth

I guess that is more important than Superman set photos.

Is all this prep work for only two days of filming common?

Before that picture floated around the other day I completely forgot. You know you screwed up when the friggin Daily Planet is forgettable.

I said this this to someone on Facebook, but you can tell who has and hasn't been inside of a modern newsroom- or working in one in my case. Newsrooms nowadays are pretty sterile and dull. It's not The Newsroom or even Supergirl with everyone running around or staring intently from the control room while reporters smoke while yelling at sources. Usually it's people just glued to their computers and only getting up for lunch or when there's free food available. It's one of the things I enjoyed about the Nolan Batman films and DCEU films- because those locations felt like actual places instead of solely going for something more fantastical. Heck, even Superman and Lois' Daily Planet looks no different from your average newsroom exterior.

It's like...that's just how newsrooms look nowadays! So the DCU looking a bit more fantastical is a nice change of pace, but what we got before felt more emblematic of what you'd expect places like that to actually look like, whereas here it's like looking into a comic. Both work.

There is no point to having it if you are going to do it realistic. No one wants to see what it actually looks like inside of a newsroom...if they did they would either work there or watch a documentary. There has to be some action or it is just a pointless thing to have.

Can’t wait to find out later that James Gunn had cutting edge technology manufactured to prevent any and all cameras from capturing photographic content during this shoot on location

He has that thing from the Dark Knight Rises that shuts down all the lights...because he is Batman

No Daily Star or Galaxy Communications? This movie will bomb.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

God I wish we could get a proper look at that suit!

Ladies and gentlemen, Bigfoot has been spotted.

Clark Kent byline. Dang. How does he manage to get all the good Superman stories?

 

[agomezv3]

That's our second look at the suit!

Edit: Clark wrote it himself lol sneaky bastard

 

[hopefuldreamer]

The actual wording of the article I really cute. Exactly how I want the public talking about Superman after a save

Also... I'd love to actually SEE this save. Think we'll get that lucky?

 

[J.Drangal]

Quick enhancement of the picture for the thirstiest of my fellow board users.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Nice touch for the newspapers....suit...of course this isnt anywhere near hq or meant to really be seen up close so...

 

[hopefuldreamer]

I've started the obsessive zooming in:

 

[Gothamsknight]

Classic Superman pose and he's saving people!

 

[HBarnill]

My Metropolis would be a lot more Art Deco. That style fits well for Superman and Batman and it feels so weird not seeing that style in these films.

 

[agomezv3]

I read everything in a transatlantic accent
