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

It's ok for me. Though, aside from the horrible muscle suit job, it's going to be a long, long time before anything ever surpasses the BvS suit design for me.

 

[Gothamsknight]

This is amazing

There's the trio!

There's the trio!

Weirdest threesome.

 

[DorkyFresh]

I could be reading too much into this but I wonder if we'll see the Engineer at the Fortress, maybe fighting Supes?

I was debating in my mind as to whether I’d prefer David to do press interviews with Nick or Rachel when it comes time to promote this movie, and now I realize the answer was obvious the whole time: all 3 together or I riot.

 

[Alien Anal]

Argh! Stuff! It's real and happening!

 

[flickchick85]

I also find it funny that Bitsie Tulloch basically appointed herself the social media Hypewoman for Superman & Lois from the get-go, and it seems like Rachel’s doing the same here. Bless those Lois Lanes.

You might be, but if there was ever a place to read into ambiguous stuff like that, this is definitely it.

 

[flickchick85]

So, what are we calling this new design anyway? It's almost the same as the Kingdom Come emblem, though not exactly, as some have noted. And we can't call it the Legacy logo anymore for obvious reasons. How about Kingdom Corenshield or just Corenshield?

I was just wondering this same thing. DCU Shield? Idk.

Still glad to have the movie just called “Superman,” though. Didn’t have anything against “Legacy,” but this just feels right.

I also noticed that while Bitsie regularly comments on Gunn's Instagram page, he rarely, if ever, reciprocates. Tis just something I noticed, not that it has any real significance.

This is amazing

I love that more than my GF..

 

[dhandler01]

Two bald supermen in a row, how could this happen!!!

@Black Narcissus needs to weigh in!!

 

[Silvermoth]

It’s funny someone asked if they’re doing anything for superman’s birthday and I rolled my eyes and was like “yeah right” and then suddenly all this.

Exciting to think we’re getting a new chance!

Gunn insists that it was purely coincidental (and he only recently became aware that it was Superman's birthday), but who knows?

These three win the internet.

I want to inject them into my veins.

For a second, I thought Jetage was saying it was fake, and I was naturally crestfallen. lol But he was apparently referring to something else.

There were fake set pic leaks going around earlier. Which were CLEARLY fake once we got a good look at the actual shield because it wasn’t a match.

It'd be cool if we could come up with something that speaks to the shield's composite nature since it combines elements from various eras, but I've got nothin' at the moment. So, DCU shield or crest it is then. Maybe throw in the name Superman for good measure.

I mean, in the future I could see this film being regularly referred to as “Superman ‘25” the way we do with Superman ‘78. But it feels a bit early for that, and anyway, as this shield will likely be showing up all over the place in the DCU (assuming Kara’s is similar), “DCU shield” feels apt to me at the moment.

Am I the only one getting slight Moe and Jerryweather vibes from this?

Perhaps I am alone here, but I would rather they hold off on whole suit reveal as long as they can. I am so freakin excited to just get the Corenshield (I'm rolling with it, ArmsHeldOut), so I would love to get tidbits here and there to spread the excitement out. Like every week or two just give us a little tease revealing little by little. 2 weeks from now we can all be like, "oh snap, a picture of the cape. It has an S on it! WOOOO!"
Then the following week we can be like, "Woooo! Trunks" or "Boooo! No Trunks!"

 

[Babillygunn]

I really like the voice changer personally, as it helps differentiate between Bruce and Batman.

As for Keaton’s Batman..I was never a fan though having the Kingdom Come suit in The Flash would have been cool. I think with a decent script that Affleck would have easily been the best Batman.

Actually it’s amazing. I respect your opinion. But I disagree with everything you said. lol.

 

[Babillygunn]

What’s coming? Do tell…

Given that, in my opinion, Tom King may have written the definitive Superman story in “Up in the Sky,” I am very happy to hear his excitement.

No. And I LOVE it
