Leo656, what was wrong with Reeve's costume? I thought that one was perfect.

And now I'm here to tell you all that the suit could be worse, oh so much worse...

~~Leo656~~ · 09-02-2011, 02:04 AM

It was 99.9% on, I love the Reeve one best. It was just very minor things, like the cape was too small and the colors were a tiny bit off. The blue and red tones of Dean Cain's Superman costume, along with the longer cape, would have been a perfect fit with the overall look of Reeve's suit. That's the suit I've always wanted to see in a movie and it sucks that I'll never get to, but the Reeve suit was as good as it's ever gonna get. Makes me sad in a way, but eh.

And yeah I've seen that pic, that's horrible.

And here we have our first look at Russell Crowe as Jor-El. Jor El's looking a little pudgy there.

Spoiler:

Eh, Brando had a much better sense of Kryptonian style!

I think it looks great, except for those shoulder pads.

*ToTheNines* · 10-04-2011, 08:58 PM

I like the design, but Crowe just looks awkward lol

Production photos can be unflattering. I'm sure it will look much better in the film. Crowe as Jor-El should be pretty cool.

Not as pudgy as Brando was.

Russell Crowe, eh? I don't know why, but something about this picture made me giggle.

*oldmanwinters* · 07-21-2012, 07:26 PM

Saw the trailer at Dark Knight Rises [Kevin Costner one, I think]

I went "meh."

As a Popeye trailer it would have had me excited though. But as a Superman primer? *meh*

But I'm still supportive of DC's live-action film efforts. Lord knows somebody has to be optimistic...

*TurtleTitan97* · 07-21-2012, 07:54 PM

I'm really excited for this film. I loved the shot of Superman flying upward and creating a sonic boom in the teaser trailer.

Raphael86 · 07-21-2012, 08:00 PM

I hope and pray that this movie is good. Superman deserves another quality movie. I love the trailer. I'm enjoying the notion that he is struggling with his decision to become Superman, as opposed to just diving in and doing it like in Superman: the Movie. He's having to do some soul searching.

*Mr.Turtle* · 07-22-2012, 12:51 AM

Man of Steel... i chuckled at that title...

*Zulithe* · 07-22-2012, 02:14 AM

So here is the thing.

In both this trailer and the SDCC 2012 trailer, a little boy in a cape is featured. We are lead to believe this is Clark.

What I want to know is why would Clark be wrapping a makeshift towel/blanket around him as a cape? If you think about it, kids didn't wear capes for play until AFTER Superman, right? He's the one who ushered in that entire era of cape popularity! And Clark is not shown all the stuff from his ship until long past his boyhood years.

Did they change this or is it just an oversight?

*Mr.Turtle* · 07-22-2012, 12:07 PM

i wonder wut's the rating of this movie?

~~Leo656~~ · 07-23-2012, 01:52 AM

The original teaser for Superman: The Movie in the 70s had ZERO film footage and placeholder music, it was just an aerial shot of actor's names followed by the S shield.

I know we're used to getting a lot more these days, to the point where we're a little spoiled, but a "teaser" isn't supposed to give you very much more information than "Oh, this movie is coming out". It's fine. Not surprised they don't focus much on the suit, they're gonna have a tough time selling that thing.

Sorry if this has been posted already. But have you guys seen the trailer they showed at Comic Con? Someone recorded it on a phone and uploaded it to Youtube. It looks awesome!
