Here is the Comic Con teaser with a minute more of footage. I think its much better, and am REALLY excited to see this now. I wouldnt be surprised if DC manages to turn this into their next cash cow like TDK trilogy.

"okay.... I just got tingles."
never been much of a superman man, but that brought some much needed hype bout this to me.
That looks awesome!! Having the military standoff with Superman makes more sense. When has humanity ever readily accepted someone who they don't know, don't understand, and can't control, even if he saves lives? They would question his motives and worry about his potential to destroy, same as they did with Spider-man.
I don't think I like the S symbol being an artifact from Krypton like this trailer suggests. Also don't like the muscle striation look of the S. Otherwise, this should be an awesome movie.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
The other link went bad:
This gives me a boner
Saw this trailer on AotS the other day, looks absolutely amazing. I like the darker turn this story appears to follow, rather than the usual boy scout role for Superman.
I know we discussed his super sperm earlier, but what about the super beard? What possible material on Earth would he use to shave the beard?

I think he actually uses a mirror and lasers it off with his heat vision in the comics, if im not mistaken.
Oh nice, that explains it. Talk about precise control.
The theme of under-appreciated, distrusted hero really appeals to me here. I think it's been used with other heroes but not with Superman. He's always been this symbol of truth and justice that people just naturally trust and admire, which is kind of corny and unbelievable. A super-powered alien is something we'd fear and revile.

Yep, just like in the NEW comics :P

Which part, the beard or the way we treat him?Originally Posted by UChessmaster
Actually it seems they did the same in the older comics as well.
This is from a 1960s comic:

Then there's this, which may or may not be canon:

The way people see superman... ugh nevermind.

Maybe they should add a character like JJ Jameson to spearhead the hate.

Nah he's not unlikable enough.... maybe you should offer yourself up for the role??
What'd be the point, kids like you would ignore great performances portraying me. Surprising then how Leary's Stacey somehow made a deep connection with you. I guess it doesn't take much.

That could do it but our Animeniax is unlikable in a H.Himmler kind of way - He is structural to Gotwoot and would only make Superman shiver like a cold day in the locker room.
Comparing me to a nazi? Typical right wing dummy sipping the Fox News kool-aid.
But yeah, Lex Luthor was nothing more than an intelligent person and he often bested Superman. So I could definitely fill that role.

And I forgive you - for I am the lord.
Seriously though, Animeniax I might be one of the few that are not crossed by your presence here - of course for your first 200 posts I was wondering how you were not bannable material but it grows on you, that faint caustic flavor reinforced by faux-aggressive comments.
You are like Kryptonite not Lex Luthor, because you are a component of this world like Cesium 137.
Keep on going brother.
Woahh woahhh take it easy there killer. Lets not make this another thread about your personal vendetta against Dennis Leary.
<3
Anyway I gotta say this is the first time in history that I've actually felt hyped about a Superman film. I enjoyed the character when I was younger, not as much as spidey and bats, but enjoyed nevertheless. If I had to guess I'd say this film will end up being about a 7.6 on IMDB.... not that it means much at all.... but thats where I think this one will end up. A good film, but not nearly on the level of Dark Knight or Avengers. But prolly on the level of Spiderman(2002) and almost on the level of Amazing Spiderman ;D
Don't forget to brush your knees off once you get done.
I like most of Denis Leary's work, it's not his fault the Amazing script didn't give him anything to work with.
I can't say how popular this movie will be. With the hype of the creative team of Snyder and Nolan, it should earn good box office numbers. Never really concerned myself with imdb ratings.
See what I have to put up with, Inazuma? No good deed goes unpunished. And you wonder why I'm always arguing with folks.Don't forget to brush your knees off once you get done.
