Nice trailer, but after the troll that was the Returns trailer, I'll wait till I see it.


The action at least looks like it will be there.

 

[KalBalboa]

Just watched it again.

Jesus, this looks good. Loving the sheer volume of actions sequences and the Kents.

 

[universalmind]

It doesn't fade to black enough, fading back in with a lense flare.

 

[Garrus Vakarian]

Good stuff.

Don't know what is going on with the Apple site, they are normally ahead when it comes to putting stuff up, need dat 1080p.

Trailer looks fun, but I'm concerned with the action sequences. Snyder completely lost me with Sucker Punch, I really hope this is more Dawn of the Dead, 300 and Watchmen - Snyder.

There's a way to change the wrapper for playback directly on a PS3 and 360 too. I just used Keepvid on the WB YouTube video.

He asked Pa Kent what he should do.

"Batman is gone. What am I supposed to do Dad? Just let Gotham get nuked?"

"...Maybe."

God damn it Matrix! This was suppose to be our moment and you messed it up!

I don't care about a Justice League movie. Just give me a Supes/Bats movie, a la World's Finest.

Edit: Whomever makes the OT for Man of Steel should make sure this picture is a part of it. You know people will ask that question a lot.

In Superman IV a lock of his hair is a part of a museum exhibit. Luthor stole it and attached it to the sack of nukes that Superman hurled into the sun.

That is how Nuclear Man was born.

The entire FAQ should provide only inconsequential information.

 

[krypt0nian]

I'm going to punch you maybe assholes in your ovaries.

Not maybe either.

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

Henry Cavill truly seems like a fantastic Superman.

The fire rises! ohohoho

Change ".mov" to ".mp4". A lot of the time, that's all you need to make it work.

As for me, I'm officially excited. I know some fans of Superman might want a fun, more light-hearted movie, but that would do absolutely nothing to make me want to watch it. Giving it the Nolan Batman treatment, however, is exciting for me.

I don't have a superman gif or a superman movie quote to respond to you with.

Super-GAF is exclusive and just doesn't take new members willynilly. There is a process.

NO fairweather fans allowed.

 

[The Technomancer]

It looks amazing....but the cape looks really pretentious. I think its the tone they're going for with this movie, the cape seems to clash with the very human humility they're trying to get across

Humanity vs godhood is what they are trying to get across IMO. The cape is fine.

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

So we all know there has to be a cameo in here somewhere.......who's it going to be?

 

[JCizzle]

Did Jonathan Kent really say 'maybe you should have let them die'. WTF?!?!?! Fuck this over realism bullshit. There is room for a "good" comic character in Hollywood.

You go girl!

Can I be part of Supes-GAF? I love Superman. Here's me wearing a Superman T Shirt.

Oh shit, I meant me wearing a Superman suit. Hehe. Oops.

No. he said "maybe."

Bibbo, man. It's Bibbo. Confirmed.

Did Jonathan Kent really say 'maybe you should have let them die'. WTF?!?!?! Fuck this over realism bullshit. There is room for a "good" comic character in Hollywood.

The fuck? You're banned from Super-GAF.

 

[JCizzle]

No. he said "maybe."

In response to 'should i have let them die'. Fuck. That.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Did Jonathan Kent really say 'maybe you should have let them die'. WTF?!?!?! Fuck this over realism bullshit. There is room for a "good" comic character in Hollywood.

He is looking out for his son. He doesn't want the government taking him away and locking him in area 51. It's not "over realisim bullshit", it's creating a more genuine father figure for Superman and also creating a conflict for him.

 

[Mariolee]

In response to 'should i have let them die'. Fuck. That.

You are truly a man who understands the fine and complex layers of the human condition.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Marvel pumps out those movies 24/7 all year long motherfucker.

Are you proposing Superman ditch the cape?

 

[apana]

Yeah, Dislike. in my opinion Superman shouldn't be gritty, emotional and sad. It should be colorful (Avengers) with massive earth-shattering destruction, because let's face it Superman has always been about DBZ style battles rather than drama.

I don't really remember Superman being like that but I am not sure, I haven't read a lot of the comics. At least Superman TAS was fairly serious and it was fantastic. Superman can strike a balance, something can be emotional without having to go to Dark Knight levels. He is the most iconic superhero. We want him to do epic and meaningful stuff, not be prancing around and making dumb jokes.

Supes-GAF will give Bat-GAF an ideal to strive towards.
They will race behind us. They will stumble. They will fall.
But in time, they will join us in the Sun.
In time, we will help them accomplish wonders.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

...it's a cape.

Come on, DM. That's an Oscar-bait cape flap if I've ever seen one.

Nah, like Nolan is doing for the Superman franchise, we are coming in to repair Supes-GAF. You guys have struggled for years, it's time for Bat-GAF to do some charity work.

 

[jtb]

Superman having internal conflict and a character arc does not suddenly equal "dark." I don't understand why this is so difficult to understand. Fleshed out characters = good. One dimensional characters = bad.

 

[krypt0nian]

Lincoln wore the same fucking cape.

 

[ReiGun]

If there's any good left in this world, it'll be Mister Mxyzptlk.

He killed Superman before Doomsday made it cool.

Some people won't be happy unless Superman spends his time saving kittens from trees, passing random comedians on the street, or battles a Lex Luthor who is more akin to a used car salesman than an evil mastermind.

Except Nolan is more like that shady auto mechanic that will give you two good services to build up that trust and then start loosening bolts to squeeze you for money and parts.

Because Bat-GAF is the hero this forum deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll follow Superman. Because we can take it. Because we're not heroes. We're silent guardians, watchful protectors. Dark knights.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Not Shakespeare Lincoln. Surely you jest!

 

[IrrelevantNotch]

then why didn't he just say "no"?
