In the paper yesterday they had an article that a train station near my work (Martin Place in Sydney) had the streets around it cut off for 8 hours to film some of Superman Returns, they had American taxi's there as well so it's going to be odd seeing a Sydney St done up to look like America!

not sure if anyone else has seen this, but towards the end of the clip, theres a short clip from the movie!

Yeah, I saw that a couple of days ago. The casting choices for Supes and Lois are not my cup of tea but everything I've seen from the movie so far looks really promising.

*The Stryker* · 08-29-2005, 12:56 AM

Kevin Spacey as luthor is a stroke of genius. I just don't like how its a sequel to the old movies.

**Barkworm** · 08-29-2005, 12:58 AM

It's supposed to be some kind of a semi-sequel, not a real one. Like the new TMNT movie.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 08-30-2005, 01:39 AM

I forsee this movie sucking serious monkey-butt. And, who the hell is Beyonce Knowles? And, why does she have a Klingon name?

Beyonce is a Pop/R&B singer and is currently "Dating" the greatest NY rapper Alive Jay-Z. She started out in the Pop group Destiny's Child but apparently her talent was too big for the group and she branched out to a solo career.

As for her name.....I don't know.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 08-30-2005, 02:54 AM

All I can say about a pop singer playing Lois Lane is "ick".

**Barkworm** · 08-30-2005, 04:07 AM

Errrm.. dude, she's not playing Lois, she's not even in the movie. That was just an old rumour.

Why? Come on, spill it, or this another one of those generic "this movie will suck" type sentences?

Secondly...what movie are you doing your research on? The script that cast Beyonce has long since been thrown out.

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 09-02-2005, 02:07 AM

This was a fairly generic "This movie will suck" sentance, but to be honest I didn't know they rejected that casting.

However, the main reason I predict suckitude is the simple fact that every change of what this movie is going to be seems worse than the last. Remember when they were planning Ashton Kutcher to play Superman? It's like every rewrite of the script and casting seems to have the theme of "making it trendy" in common, and "trendy" movies tend to suck. Especially, when they "reimagine" a classic character in the process.

Maybe, when I hear more about the current version I will have a better outlook. Especially, if they start making the story true to the comics and old-movies and stop casting whoever is supossedly popular with the teenagers at the time.

I mean, if *I* was making this movie it would be about this Superman, and have this cast.

Superman--Mike McShane
Lois---Tim Curry in Drag
Lex--Mr. T
Brainiac--Corey Haim
Jimmy Olsen--Gary Coleman

Here's the proof!

Frankly, I think MY Superman movie would be much less desecration than any of the things I'm hearing about this one!

**GK Punk** · 09-02-2005, 03:37 AM

lmao.

Special Superman is almost as much of a legend around here as Fil!

*Dane E5R* · 09-02-2005, 03:41 AM

Tetsu, I know you were joking, but... Damn.

*Anarky* · 11-18-2005, 02:04 PM

The first Teaser is online. Doesn't show too much new stuff, but it does look rather good.

*Raph's Girl* · 11-18-2005, 03:18 PM

The teaser trailor is AWESOME! It aired durring Smallville last night!

Cerpin Taxt · 11-18-2005, 06:10 PM

That trailer makes me not want to see the movie anymore. I hate Non-Vertigo DC.

~~Turtledude2k3~~ · 11-18-2005, 07:35 PM

I just saw the trailer last night on Ign and I can it looks nice. With the big coming Summer 2006, boy maybe this might actually do well.. If batman begins (one of the best batman movies of all time) do well, superman should do the same..

*Brodie* · 11-21-2005, 04:37 PM

I saw the trailer in the theatre, and almost spooged. It was awesome.

Singer did good, so far.
