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

[elizaD]

The Mummy was excellent. Both movies were well received with the general audience.

For that reason I dont see the problem.
Why they suggest that it is a mess?

I am guessing the mess is because of the CGI. Supposedly Sneider covered himself by saying he thinks the movie will be good and corrections will be made. That signals CGI because Gunn said no reshoots and the issues seem to be with the FX team.

Because it is vague and let's people run with whatever theory or fear they have...easy clickbait.

And if this is all because of cgi that is beyond laughable. It's not like the movie comes out in February the cgi is far from finished.

It's not an issue with the FX team. Movies that have screenings at this stage don't have finished cgi.

 

[TheGDBatman]

I didn’t bother reading Jeff’s article….but wasn’t the test screening a friends and family screening? Would they even be test screening this far out? Seems early…

 

[emielaen]

Gunn did speak about going to a second screening before, but it's likely friends and family.

 

[Adrian Chase]

 

[GreenKToo]

Lol, we are about 7 months away from it being released.
If it were totally finished, they'd release it sooner.

Gunn will watch It over and over again, he's his biggest critic, and he will get others to watch it also and give a honest critique on the FX.
If anyone he trusts has a complaint about any of the FX, it will be fixed.

 

[Lily Adler]

Oh **** this movie is a disaster. Cancel everything. Sell it to Comcast!

 

[dhandler01]

Jeff Sneider will triple down cause he heard from a janitor at WB Studios that worked the day the screening definitely happened!

Pretty sure everyone is now having fun showing how big of a clownshow this fraud is.

 

[Chip Chipperson]

Benjamin Squires put his rework of the Williams theme on streaming platforms and it is beautiful

 

[GreenKToo]

We gotta hear the theme while seeing superman stopping a runaway train,
or,
him beating the beejubus out of the bad guy after coming back from his own beat down.
I'll probably stand and cheer.

In this economy, you gotta cut things and the Daily Planet does not want to pay that insane electric bill just to make the globe rotate.

But who doesn’t love to see the globe rotating? Snyder was trying to go for too much realism hence not including a globe on the roof. Yet, it was a world where not only Superman existed but Robin as well and Harley Quinn. Characters that Christopher Nolan refused to use in his films. Huh. Yet no Jimmy Olsen either. Because Jimmy Olsen wasn’t realistic enough?

Yeah sure the rotating globe would cost money but this is fiction, so who cares?

The fictional characters in the world who are paying the bills?

Sneider will say that the screening definitely happened, but it’s also commonplace for screenings at this stage to have not happened yet so it might not have happened and therefore he’s right either way.

And if the screening DIDN’T happen, it’s still pretty normal for people who weren’t present to have negative opinions on a film at this stage in the production, so Gunn has plenty of time to work out the kinks and make sure that he assuages the concerns of those people who didn’t see the movie.

Either way, Sneider is covered and we should always listen to him.

Who is this guy? Is he connected to the film somehow?

 

[Karelia]

I gotta ask, who is Matias Lertora? And are they any more reliable than Sneider?

 

[elizaD]

Argentinian journalist.
He was in the trailer premiere with Gunn and the cast

 

[Silvermoth]

Gee I’m so glad the internet wasn’t around for movies like Jaws. Everyone would have predicted the worst but I’m just saying it seemed to work out ok for that film.

Let’s everyone just relax and have fun. I’m thinking of taking the day off and seeing it in imax

 

[J.Drangal]

Damn. No matter how you spell it, this board just loves its Sneider talk...

 

[Daywalker89]

Damn. No matter how you spell it, this board just loves its Sneider talk...

I don't usually follow these apparent frauds who love to talk on the web about things they have seen but the fact his name is technically synder's is wild to me lmao Like, how much trauma can Superman fans endue.

O.T i see he's leaking stuff about xmen aswell lol seriously who is this guy.

He's super hit or miss and very arrogant but writes for Deadline, which is one of the bigger online movie sites that is usually correct in most/all things. I think his own reporting is just his own stuff and not associated though.

 

[flickchick85]

Since when does Sneider write for Deadline? I know he started at the Wrap, moved to Variety and then got fired from there for “unprofessional behavior” several years ago.

Jimmy Olsen was technically there, he was just a CIA agent who got shot in his one and only scene lmao

Oh my bad, I got them confused.
