makes me wanna pack up and move to Smallville!
I think that it's only a matter of time before we actually see HC on set in the suit. We are experiencing the start of something wonderful, people. I don't even remember being this excited back when Superman Returns was being made. I liked SR a lot, but even I admit that it was extremely flawed. However, back during the production I was so excited that we were getting a new Superman movie, but I definitely didn't fee like this.
?The Superman fb page had a link to NBC Chicago who did a news report on Superman shooting in Plano and talked to locals and local businesses about it:

Well it probably will. Why else set it in Plano, IL of all places. They are probably going to be using a lot of what is already there, except for the things that are going to get destroyed.

Latest update via MOS 2012 facebook ... Apparently the trailer for the movie is being shot ....
Superman: Man of Steel (2013)
The new info for filming is this: Mon 8/15 for movie trailer footage 1pm-8pm in Plano & the streets will be closed and simultaneious shooting of hospital scenes in Sandwich on Pleasant. Plano tentavely extended filming 8/22-9/2 w/ the helicopter scenes on 8/25 and backup heliciopter scenes on 8/27, D'town Chicago 9/9-9/11 for exterior shots, crew and ppl that work in city said Superman, Zod and Faora will show up during Plano filming. Ok, that about covers it.
<V>
The most open shooting I remember from 'Superman Returns' was when Clark/Brandon ran out of the bar into the street and was among all the extras.
btw it looks like the scene with Henry in a harness involves that bridge in the photo above.
wow!! when do you think we will get the trailer?? this winter, perhaps??
oh, and Zod and Faora are showing up in Smallville, too??!!
maybe Zod and Faora trace Kal-El's ship to Smallville and go there to try to "recruit" Kal-El. or, maybe they just want a slice of Triple J's pizza!!
I think they are there just for some Triple J pizza!

and if Zod and Faora do show up in Smallville, I'm now wondering if the tornado scene we've been hearing about is really a tornado.
maybe it's really a combined super-breath blast from Zod and Faora that's strong enough to creat tornado force winds??
and, if that vault is in Smallville, too, maybe it gets damaged when Superman is thrown into it by Zod and/or Faora.

In nolan with his name on it I trust.

Though Suckerpunch sucked 300 and WatchMen were amazing!
but didn't Singer do those video diary things during production??

No, you're right. I was thinking more when fans got to see Brandon and take photos etc.
I was hoping not think about Singer!
It depends on if they're taking this time in Plano to also shoot flashbacks as well as present day stuff. So it's confusing.
Probably. Just depends on how they shoot the town. I didn't like how it was done in the TV show were it felt more like a suburb
Same. It's like there isn't a single part that i'm not excited to see.
We still have first sight of Cavill with glasses, first sight of Cavill on set in costume, first sight of Amy Adams on set (and what colour her hair will be), Diane Lane, Julia Ormond, Fishburne, Shannon, Lennix, Meloni, Traue and of course Russel Crowe. We have the first look of what Krypton will look like, what baby Kal-el's spaceship will look like, what Metropolis will look like, what the Daily Planet building will look like, what the DP office will look like, what Jor-el, Zod and Faora will wear. We still don't know if all the casting is done. Could be waiting on Jimmy, Lana and of course LEX! (hopefully).
I'm looking forward to Immortals, and Cold Light of Day. I'm looking forward to next years SDCC. I'm looking forward to more official images of absolutely every single member of the cast. I'm looking forward to any minute plot leaks that are sure to come throughout the 2 year waiting period we face.
And then teasers! And then full trailers! And then THE MOVIE!
Did I miss anything?
Awesome![]()

but didn't Singer also spend a ****load of money growing "fake corn" in New Zealand ( where they filmed Smallville, I think )?
LOL at IHOP. That right there might be a perfect example of why these movies cost so much. Instead of easily filming a scene at a real IHOP, they felt the need to go BUILD one.
Of course, if it gets destroyed or something, that's a different thing.
