The Malick thing is really working for Snyder- I hope it turns out to be a nice new way of doing “grim’n’gritty” with out so much grimness and grit. This trailer, along with doubling down on the flowing, hovering imagery and sun-pointed drama, also lets loose with some action, which all seems pretty standard at this point. Still loving the arrested Superman imagery- his submission to mankind. That is actual poetic film/story grammer that means a lot more than a floaty shot of pencils or whatever.
We also get a little look at Zod, but ultimately they’re still playing their cards close. I hope that stays the case. I’d love to see something I don’t expect when I walk in for a new Superman movie.

Renn Brown, That Trailer was…SUPER…MAN! Maybe next time Kal-El can show why he is…The Man Of STEEL!
“What was I supposed to do? Let them die?”
“Maybe.”
Pa Kent, everybody! Let’s all give him a hearty round of applause!
Renn Brown, With the casting of…Henry, it looks like the…CAVILLry arrives just in time to…Save DC Superhero Films for the WB! Maybe The Man Of Steel will meet a…Dark Knight that was recently…aRISEan to form a…League of…Justice to compete with a…Fantastic Foursome, an…Ant-Man, and…The Avengers Too! In a summer filled with…STAR WARS, Superheroes, and smaller heroes it is revealed an…Ant Man and a Wasp Woman can have…IN…SECTS!
And music from Gladiator, not Inception! But it’s all sooooo bluuuuuuuuu. Why so blue?
Leftover washout from Dr. Manhattan.
It doesn’t look too Zach Snidery…yet. Please, God/Zod/Whoever, none of the stop/slow/speed up parlor tricks on this one.
What?! I totally want some speed-ramped punching! That was the ONE thing I was hoping for from Zack Snyder directing a Superman movie.
Are you shitting me? This is the ONE movie where it’s 100 percent justified to emphasise his super speed. Of course it will be used.
How does Superman shave that beard off?
If they have a scene of Superman burning off his beard with heat vision and a hand mirror (as he often did in the old comics) this will be too awesome for words.
At least it made more sense than “Kryptonite scissors for cutting his hair” which IIRC was actually used at one point.
Why do these bad guys always wear bike tires for clothes? I mean, they were able to pull it off in Demolition Man but since then… this is what I mean: https://twitter.com/CaptainHeck/status/278584378840465408/photo/1
ops, sorry broken link, here is the zod you were looking for https://twitter.com/CaptainHeckhthttps://twitter.com/CaptainHecktps://twitter.com/CaptainHeck
STELLAR! This trailer makes me hopeful.
What’s with the ring? Is it going to be this iteration’s version of the glowing green crystal?
Come on folks what’s wrong with y’all? How dare you ask how he shaves his beard? Any RED-BLOODED AMERICAN knows this info! If you watch the bts docu on the *Man of Steel bootleg blu-ray (available at all fine flea markets and chop shops) you would know that he uses a shard of Kryptonian steel from his baby star vessel and bounces his heat vision off of it and onto his beard, thereby burning off the offending whiskers. COME ON!!! I’m beginning to suspect that we have a Dirty Commie Pinko infiltration going on in these boards.
*If you can’t get a hold of the Blu-ray/screener copy just check out a copy of John Byrne’s Superman#7!
At 2:02. Chris Meloni. Score!! Looks damn good!
