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

As someone who likes Raimi's Spidey movies but also purely views them as jokes the first one ending with Nickelback feels like a hilarious punchline. It's such a dumb, cheesy, earnest song. Totally fits the dumb silly movie.

Music does have truly powerful sense memory abilities because I swear anytime I hear that song it takes me straight back to that feeling I had of extreme hype, both for the movie and for graduating high school. It’s kind of insane how palpable that nostalgia is lol.

It’s kind of insane how palpable that nostalgia is lol.

I unironically actually do get chills from that song 'cause of nostalgia.

For some reason the song says it wasn't Nickelback, but just their lead singer Chad Kreuger who did the song. He also did a song with Satana. Makes me wonder if he was trying to go solo.

It's Chad and the lead singer from Saliva I believe.

BTW Chad is a pretty nice dude.

I've never read Omega Men even though I adore Tom King. Time to fix that.

It's very good, even though not my favorite of King's work

I just read this whole thread with 'Whoa, but heaven, no, heaven don't hear meeeeeee...' playing out in my head. I now also have chills.

Posting a rugby player every day until the suit reveal Day 40:

Since there's technically two rugby players in that shot, does that mean you'll take a break for tomorrow?

He may have the cheeks of two men, but that doesn't count.

What if he had the heads of two men? Would that count?

 

[flickchick85]

Gettin weird.

 

[Captain Tired]

let them eat cake

 

[Herolee10]

Gettin weird.

I blame Lily. She started this whole saga.

 

[SupermansPal]

We need that suit

 

[Captain Tired]

Yeah. The cape covers up the cheeks, too.

 

[Babillygunn]

So now I'm buying this...

I've never read Omega Men even though I adore Tom King. Time to fix that.

I put Omega Men up there with Mister Miracle and Up in the Sky as Tom King’s best work. (I give Human Target and Vision his honorable mentions). The ending of Omega Men is especially provocative and stays with you.

Posting Superman pages/panels I love every day until we get our first official look at David Corenswet as Superman, Day 24:

 

[Kane52630]

Now THAT is a needle drop!!

I feel the same about Nickelback as everyone else does but if Gunn had the balls for a Nickelback needledrop I would take back everything negative I've said about this whole DCU thing.

If Gunn is lying and we actually have young Clark, then I'm expecting his scenes in the early 00s set to this:

 

[Kane52630]

Posting gifs of Batman & Robin even though this is a Superman thread until we get an official look at David as Superman (day 11)

 

[Arachnerd]

Uma Thurman was having a freaking ball with that performance.

 

[Deck Rickard]

God. We need that suit pic. This thread has devolved Nickelback talk, rugby shorts and Batman & Robin gifs. If this goes on much longer, we’ll be eating paint chips and debating whether aliens built all the tall buildings in New York.

 

[Arachnerd]

Excuse me! Aliens obviously built the pyramids. I saw it on a very legit History Channel show.

 

[Gothamsknight]

I'm willing to bet we will get a full suit pic in May. Which means we won't.

 

[SupermansPal]

They gotta release the suit sometime next month in preparation to the location filming, right?

RIGHT?

 

[Kane52630]

Someone on twitter managed to get footage from the wardrobe department with the suit.
