Maybe he will play Evil Superman in Man Of Steel 2.
I really liked the idea of the
A solid 7/10 from me, but as many have said before. This seems like the set up for something bigger and more realized.
disjointed chronology so we could see the origin story interspersed with the main story line.
I just feel like we didn't get enough satisfaction for it. We didn't get to see him develop really between being a kid and being an adult aside from the one scene where his father dies.

I do like the concept of it. It's really the execution which feels underwhelming. The poor editing made everything feel disjointed and wavering instead of having a tight focus and clear direction. Non-linear narrative is great when it's effective. Here it was cumbersome.

This, this right here is the same thing I've been saying.

Can I ask a general question about superman, not necessarily about this movie?
When does Superman become Superman (the suit, saving people, protecting Metropolis)? Does this happen when he's already an established reporter with the Daily Planet? Or does he arrive at Metropolis fully comfortable with his identity? I don't watch Smallville so I can't recall the details from that.

depends on who is telling the story.

It's the film's biggest flaw; it's definitely got Nolan's hands all over it, but Goyer and he couldn't make it work like they thought it would. I mentioned in my review about a desire to see how the film would play if they went linear with the progression of the story, but with the way they structure the scenes in which the flashbacks happen, I feel like it wouldn't work out well at all. The foundation is too rotten, so to speak.

I remember Faora being criticized for a stiff performance.
Even if true, it just makes her sound tougher.

Oh yeah, it just made her more menacing. To me at least.
Need more Antje Traue gifs.
Is there a chance that
she isn't dead and that wormhole just took her someplace else? Possibly somewhere were Brainiac might find her?
Loved the movie! Definitely a solid 8.5/10
Going to go see it on Wednesday again.

It looked that way to me too, and i thought as much in the theater....but then they show people hanging around while the battle is going on. I dont know if it was during the parking garage or the office building but it was clear after that that where they were fighting wasnt empty.

We don't know
the nature of the Phantom Zone. Krypton used a ship to fly into it the first time. Their ship is badly breached when they're pulled in the 2nd time.
They might become ghosts though!
Poor Col. Hardy and Prof. Hamilton might still be alive too

She is literally stiff because she plays it that way. She's like a goddamn machine built to fuck stuff up. You know these big "hero" shots of character standing around like bosses and looking like the meanest mothers ever? Shit, Faora was like that ALL THE TIME.

That would be awesome....
I hope we don't see a Lex as the next villain, i would love to see Brainiac, I always thought Lex on his own is a weak villain...

Speaking of which, reminder: That armor is all CG. They never actually wore that stuff.
Lex is the logical next step, we already got the physical threat in the kryptonians in MoS now Supes has to deal with a more psychological threat and thats what Lex can provide.

HUB Recreates Man of Steel Trailer using footage (and voices) from Superman: The Animated Series in preparation for a marathon next week.
Most the voices are the original VA's returning. Tim Daly (Superman), Dana Delany (Lois), Christopher McDonald (Jor-el), and Mike Farrell (Johnathan Kent).

Damn haha. Can't imagine how hot it must have gotten filming a physically intense role, under sunlight, for long periods of time. A trooper I say
No matter how violent or cruel, every action I take is for the good of us.
Zimmer nailed the score. Of course, critics think the opposite.
That had to be the most intense thing to ever happen in an iHop.
It can be both you know.
And Lex doesn't even have to die at the end - which is great as he can have some role in a future JL story arc.
I can also see Martian Manhunter showing up in MOS2 as the link to a JL movie.
edit: @SimleuqiR response, you read my mind.
Now she's a Legend.
So awesome, loved what they did for TDKR trailer, too.
The sooner these threads mesh the better.

It was neat to hear Delany delivering Adams's lines.
DCAU Lex and Brainiac relationship was epic as hell. My favorite part was early on though. Brainiac forced him to build a body, and Lex got hungry and Brainac only let him eat candy bars. Lex saw his reflection in the wrapper and realized the trouble he'd gotten into.It can be both you know.

I don't know if anything will top Rocketeer for my favorite comic film.
You're a good person.
Why can't I stop watching this clip?! I need to see this movie again!!!
