The Daily Planet Vol. 2: Superman News and Speculation Thread (🚨TAG SPOILERS🚨)

When do you guys think the review embargo will be lifted. I am hoping July 9th but I could see July 7th. I just want to see the movie before any rotten tomatoes scores.

Snagged mine. Though people be rude and take all the middle seats. No class.

With young kids, I've learned to grab the end seats every time. This also avoids me walking in front of people viewing the movie.

So I went to Prime and they gave me a free trial for the month (which I am cancelling obviously) but now I get to buy tickets

As for the theater, I usually sit on the end depending on the theater.

edit: holy cow the IMAX showing closest to me is half sold already

This movie might sell 25+ million before opening night. Can’t believe how many theaters in my area are having the pre screenings. WB seems to be real confident in this.

New EW article. It really dives into the Superman/Lois interview scene & their relationship (all of which sounds fantastic):

How 'Superman' shepherds the DC universe of tomorrow (exclusive)

'Superman' lights the way! Ten superstars — including David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and director/studio head James Gunn — take EW inside the first feature film from the franchise's new era.

Their chemistry is amazing. Gunn gets the secret of a good Superman movie, you got to get Lois right. David and Rachel remind me of Tyler and Bitsy.

The floodgates have opened, my friends...

That black and white pic of Supes might be my favorite so far. Amazing.

I did that. For some reason it's not even showing the theatre as an option, even though NCG has it listed on their site that they are participating in the the Amazon Early Screening

When I first tried to get mine, the handshake between Amazon and Fandango wasn’t working, so the showtime would be grayed out. I had to do it on my phone.

 

[DCDAVE]

I can’t believe all of these early screenings. Superman is basically giving Jurassic rebirth the July 4th holiday and that is it. Wow…… Superman claimed July first so Universal did this to themselves.

I got errors at first when trying to buy...I had to refresh and start over.

I was surprised how many theaters were showing it near me. Usually these early screenings (like MOS with WalMart) have only a couple in the Twin Cities Metro area. All the AMCs had one, my fave non-IMAX had one and the DLX that is too far to justify going to (cause the GF is coming) is having one. That is pretty nuts.

I saw some people on reddit wondering why it is Amazon and not HBO Max since it is a WB film and the reason is pretty obvious. HBO Max doesn't have nearly the subscriber base as Prime does.

The pre screenings are at several movie theaters in my area and start as early as 7pm with at least two showings a night before July 11th. I live in Maryland and I could have chosen several movie theaters to see it in. It is not just IMax either. It’s every type. 2 hour and 9 minutes was smart.

Krypto is so going to steal the film!

This article is fantastic. The explanation of the interview scene is everything I wanted it to be! And LordTech stuff, while known, is still great to read. And Sean Gunn as Max is just perfect...especially since he shows up in Peacemaker

I also liked what Gunn said about how long the world has known about Metas and how they would react to them.

"We mixed and matched these different actors and actresses to find out not only who was the best Clark and who was the best Lois, but who was the best 'Clois,' who was the best together," he says. "I do think that David was the best Clark, Rachel was the best Lois, but they also had the most chemistry together."

And the internet rejoices!

I'm jealous, I just don't know of who.

Love how the cover "moves" at first before becoming a picture, and Rachel looks AMAZING!
