Seeing merchandise like T-shirts with the GIANT BLACK OUTLINE is annoying as hell. What is with that outline?!?

I just remembered there was a whole year where the shield had black instead of yellow. IIRC it was for Our Worlds at War.

According to the designer, Man of Steel's shield is modeled after the Golden Age and George Reeve's shield. Kal-L's shield can look nice, but it's probably the hardest one to draw right.

They got the Lois and Clark one dead on, which is funny, because THAT one is the worst.
To be fair, Ma Kent sewed that one up. :P
 
Man of Steel might be my favorite of the bunch. It's hard to look at the shields and remove them from the man who wore them (animated or live action), but that MoS shield really hits all the right notes for me.

The Fleischer shield is incredibly cool looking when on the suit.

True, and I was wrong - the Merchandising S also shows up in the pilot to Lois & Clark. His suit in that episode is actually WORSE than the rest of the run's.

The Kingdom Come S symbol is still the best. TRUTH!

I have a shirt with that S on it, and it's probably my favorite Superman shirt (I have multiple)

I wish there were shirts with this S (from the posters to Superman: The Movie - never showed up on a costume) As I think this S is overall my favorite one.

Hmm just looking at upcoming media events and the week beginning February 3rd could be interesting for some big MoS stuff given the Superbowl is on the 3rd (Superbowl TV spot?) and then on the 10th the New York Toy Fair kicks off which I'd imagine would have a big MoS presence given the likes of DC Collectibles, Square Enix, Mattel and Sideshow Toys/Hot Toys will be there and all have the Man of Steel license....good first look at Zod via a figure or statue?

It'd be a huge opportunity. C'mon WB- let's see some Superman this Feb 3.
 
What's funny is that not one of those \S/ symbols is the one that DC uses in all of it's marketing for Superman as a general property (Superman birthday plates, Superman...uh, Golf cozies, etc):

(Minus the lens flare, that is).

still the best S shield.

yeah that was after world at war but also after 9/11.

Those soldiers should look afraid and in awe hes fucking Superman.

You're bullets cant fucking harm him.

i'm not a bullet but also since it's a rookie Superman they still think that they can (more or less)
 
George Reeve was the best one. God Almighty man of steels is the worst looks like it has down syndrome

Looks far better in the movie stills and the trailer than it does in that drawing of the the shields. In shits all over Superman Returns S shield yet the returns shield S looks better in the drawing. Artist fail.

Cavill looks bad ass in that EW shot. Dude's jaw line and neck make Routh seem so skinny when Routh isn't a small guy. He was just lacking in key areas that would have made him look like a grown ass Superman.

"They got the Lois and Clark one dead on, which is funny, because THAT one is the worst."

Yep, nothing worse put on screen.
 
Lois Lane, Superman and Wonder Woman...maybe. lol

Also got my issue of EW and the preview for MOS mentions the film begins on Krypton.
 
thanks for the link. ooh, I'm tempted, so very very tempted but I want to go into the movie fresh.

have you read it? spoiler free impressions?

My spoiler free impressions are that it's probably bullshit. There's a lot missing that, at the time this thing was posted, shouldn't have been missing. Plus the fact it's pretty much ONLY this site, and the fact it's still up.

that's disappointing. I have faith in the movie, but I was hoping for some confirmation that it wasn't a complete mess.

Yeah, I don't want to read it either but I want to know if the action goes all crazy and stuff, knowing Snyder Im sure it will though.
 
Superman is a chubby chaser...

That woman is built like a brick shit-house. She's more likely than not in better shape than any of us in this thread, heh.

I'm convinced that leaked script was legit now

Anybody could tell you a Superman film would start on Krypton. With an origin film, it's guaranteed.

Man... what's the deal with casting directors and Lois Lane? Amy Adams looks so 'plain'...

Oh c'mon now, my friend. Amy Adams? Plain?

Pretty sure that poster was referring to the link just posted. So far as I can tell - almost nobody's read the script to this thing - aside from the people involved in the production, of course.

Oh well that sucks.

That leak is missing some key points (like Clark's entire childhood in Smallville, which is clearly in the trailer), but I'm still kinda afraid to read it. lol

She doesn't look like that since she lost to Cris Cyborg. I mean, just look at her then and now!

Yes, plain. I don't like her being cast as Lois. .Better than Bosworth, of course, but still, they could've done better.
