Looks good. I like how Michael Shannon isn't the only thing from Take Shelter in the trailer.

Fuckin' LOL! Dem hurricanes.

Rewatching it again, I like it a bit better. The Gladiator music really is distracting at first - not to mention Martha Kent's awful line reading. Everything after that is pretty great - especially the part Sunhi gif'd.

He farted himself into space.
 
do you people even enjoy movies anymore?

jesus

All the time. Most recently two days ago when I saw Tangled for the first time and absolutely loved it. Doesn't have anything to do with the price of tea in China though, nor does it change my feelings on this trailer.
 
Anyone complaining that this doesn't show off enough is being ridiculous. What more do you want? You'll be in the theater day one regardless, like the rest of us.
 
I really liked it a lot... except for ONE thing.

Jonathan Kent would never ever EVER advocate the loss of life. He's committed to protecting his son, yes, but at the cost of innocent life? No, sir, not buying it. He's Superman without powers - that's the guy he is. So his line about having Clark just let people die to preserve the secret is unbelievably wrong.

That being said, I liked just about everything else. I'm hoping the solemn nature of the trailer is meant to show the darkness that Clark has to step out of to become Superman. Because that's actually fairly consistent with the character. He's kind of a mess until he figures out how to use his powers to help people in public.
 
lol at all the "praise nolan" posts

Once again confirmed. If the movie is good, Nolan will get unjustified praise, and if its shit, he will get none of the blame. Poor Snyder.

Seriously, people. What is it? Either complain about trailers showing too much or not enough - you can't have it both ways.
 
Looks good, but I watched it without audio so I can't say for sure. Probably more excited for Iron Man 3, but that and Man of Steel look to make 2013 damn awesome for superhero blockbusters.

Regarding Zack Snyder, he seems to make movies that, if divisive, are true to what he intended. I think it is amusing that he's following up Sucker Punch with this movie, but I like the style he brings to movies.

and its still 6 months until release. most of the cg ist unfinished and the work on the score hasnt even started yet. we will get a big spoiler filled trailer in 3-4 months.
 
Who's the composer for the music this go around? I hope it's Hans Zimmer; some may be tired of his work but his shit is always awesome!
 
i know superman hasn't had an origin story in a long time. I'm speaking more generally, I'm a little fatigued with origin stories where we get a fraction of the action just to set up another 8 movies. especially for characters that are pretty well known.

Pretty much.

Honestly, I would ahve rather seen a Snyder Superman film untouched by the hands of Nolan. I do like some of Snyder's stuff and I think he can be very true to the character when he wants to.
