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

[SupermansPal]

Saw this on Twitter by Aaron S Bailey. I'm falling for this film every second. Great to have a Superman film in production again

Is this the first superhero suit ever where edits mute the colors and not brighten them?

 

[Chip Chipperson]

I wonder what Jon Peters would make of the suit...

This Superman ain’t from the streets, clearly

 

[Gothamsknight]

Definitely that Superman has his own merch in this world. I want all the figures haha

 

[Babillygunn]

The overall reaction to the suit has been divisive. I’ve seen GA tearing into it on Facebook and Instagram, and even my friends think it looks goofy

It ain’t just me

Get some new friends.

Needs lots of hairspray.

I think so lol. But I'm in the camp of "looks great" whether it be saturation that burns your eyeballs out of your socket or muted Fleischer tones. As long as my boy looks good, all I care about.

I sorta disagree but I think I’m just a lot more comfortable hand waving things like that than you are. But yes anything I say about how I think Battinson in a theoretical shared universe could have been cool is not me saying I think he’d be a natural fit for the DCU.

Pattinson’s performance though tbh feels the most well suited to an ensemble though. I can imagine him playing basically any JLU scene.

Totally. The way he is with Gordon. Perfection.

 

[Captain Tired]

That's good because in Metropolis you just sort of fail upwards.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

The Flash is also a wacky yet heartfelt comedy with a ton of weird gross out humour about an insecure young man with parental issues learning to accept himself. IDK man, if you look at it narratively it seems right up Gunn’s alley - I’m sure he was playing it up for marketing purposes (we know he hated Keaton’s Batman historically and the way the new ending absolutely tanks that character along with Supergirl makes me think he hasn’t changed lol - it’s wild how those two characters just die meaninglessly because they were originally fake out deaths and not actual endings) but there’s so much to that movie in its substance that feels of a piece with Gunn’s own work. It just happens to suck.

Also: Muschietti is not some rando. Why would he ever agree to a humiliating fake hire? That’s a super ****ed up thing to ask a dude who up until that point had done nothing for the studio but make it massive amounts of money.

Yep. The style fits Gunn. It's just bad.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Two Batmans make absolutely no sense.

Yeah. So you keep the proven one already going.

 

[Enriquespy]

I want more Batmans.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Soooo... a CGI animal? Any theories here? I have no idea what to make of that

Krypto.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Krypto.

I mean, that's the first instinct, but the way he's moving majes it look like it's something bigger...

Wait... oh ****, I just realised its probably because Krypto is flying.

Exactly what I was thinking.

 

[Ninjablade]

The go kart to handheld setup is pretty cool. Looks like fun for the camera OP despite the difficulty.

 

[hopefuldreamer]

Okay no, a few more watches and I think Mr Terrific is trying to get Krypto to fly and then screams in frustration at the end when he wont

 

[DKDetective]

Bizarro eyebrows were back at the cast dinner last night:

This was not a temporary part of the dying process!

 

[J.Drangal]

Wild guess: Superman is abducted by the bad guys seen yesterday and then Mr.Terrific uses Krypto to track him, up in the sky...

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Okay no, a few more watches and I think Mr Terrific is trying to get Krypto to fly and then screams in frustration at the end when he wont

Same impression I got.

Would be funny if it ended up just being a lighting effect

Hey, remember when you said I was crazy for saying the suit was a bright blue similar to Hoechlin's Fleischer suit?

 

[Invader Joker]

Hey, remember when you were wrong when you said I was crazy for saying the suit was a bright blue similar to Hoechlin's Fleischer suit?

What about the rounded symbol?

 

[Invader Joker]

I also wonder if the eyebrows could be less a clone thing and more a Clark Kent thing
