WB Debuts Trailer for Snyder's "Man of Steel" Superman Reboot

[Spike-X]

So grown up adults are having trouble interpreting the handcuffs scene?

I know, right?

[Phil Clark]

Well, they might be past their teenage years, but how grown up or adult they are is anyone's guess....

Oh, SNAP!

[Karl O'Neill]

Pa Kent's "Maybe"

Moral absolutist, moral relativist or just immoral? Oh snap!

No, he's just human and it's going to be a super summer action movie.

[maskedavenger]

This movie will be beautiful...Synder usually makes at least pretty pictures.

I hope none of the future trailers give away all the action scenes

Same here: I remember how excited when the Superman Returns trailer had the plane catching scene and gatling gun/eyeball shooting scenes. Little did I know...

[dupersuper]

And you honestly can't see the difference between the DC characters and the Marvel characters as presented at their genesis?

You honestly buy that? I love Stan and his heroes, but a spoonful of angst =/= frameshift.

I didn't like the Christopher Reeves Superman when it came out. He never was Superman to me.

Blasphemer!! Also: mispeller.

Also, Batman & Robin is the only Batman movie where Batman actually maintains his no-killing rule I believe.

Well, there's the 60's Batman...

He wouldn't even kill ducks.

When i saw the new Die Hard, was the first time i saw the trailer of this film in the cinema. I could hear non-comics fans in the theatre reacting to the action scenes, the other scenes in the trailer. Apparently the last one wasnt loved by the swedes in the theatre. Frankly seen it that way made this film more appealing to me than just seeing the trailer on the computer.

I dont care about the actions scenes myself, just make it morally interesting like that maybe line by Pa Kent and made Superman a hero you can root for the like in the old films. Henry Cavil looks like already more heroic, impressive like Reeves did than the last guy.

I think the scene where Batman and Robin punch all of the Penguin guards into anti-matter counts.

I think the scene where Batman and Robin punch all of the Penguin guards into anti-matter counts.

Kind of, but not exactly. They never intended to kill those minions. And it was effectively Penguin that killed them when he mistakenly used heavy water to re-hydrate the dehydrated lackeys. If he had used normal water they wouldn't have "popped" when struck. By the time Bruce and Dick realized what was happening the fight was over because the minions were all gone. They only each struck one, two ran into each other and Penguin struck the fifth and final one with his umbrella. If memory serves.

I don't think that's true, it's just that most people didn't care to see the movie.

I don't know why some people have such a hard time getting that.

[kalorama]

as much as I liked Dredd, part of why it failed was that people did not have a face to associate with the character

I don't think that's true, it's just that most people didn't care to see the movie.

Well, the two things are hardly mutually exclusive.

You could say of any movie that fails at the box office that it failed because most people didn't care to see it. That's an obvious truism; but it doesn't address the underlying reasons why people didn't care to see it. That said, I think the real underlying reason why most people didn't want to see Dredd was because it wasn't very good and got bad reviews and bad word of mouth.
