Man Of Steel (2013 Superman reboot directed by Zack Snyder)

[A24 5,156]

So will I!

What? Blame Nolan or see it in theaters? Or both?

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386]

See it in the cinema.

[crocodile 9,724]

If it's good, I'll praise Snyder. If it's bad, I'll blame Nolan.

I know, I'll do the opposite.

Karol

[Quintus 6,495]

Nolan and Zimmer are the weak links for me.

[crocodile 9,724]

Nolan gets a "story by" credit. Start getting worried.

Karol

[Quintus 6,495]

Word is he likes words

[crocodile 9,724]

In so many words, yeah.

Karol

[Quintus 6,495]

Word

Here's a recent piece from UK newspaper The Guardian about Zimmer's theme for Man of Steel in the context of Williams's work:

[Pieter Boelen 1,032]

That's probably the most positive opinion on Zimmer's recent "stuff" that I can agree with.

Any more positive and it would be just plain silly.

[Quintus 6,495]

It was a pragmatic view, difficult to take issue with.

[Brónach 1,330]

If it's good, I'll blame Snyder. If it's bad, I'll blame Snyder.

[crocodile 9,724]

So I guess it's Snyder's film...written by the same people who brought you The Dark Knight Trilogy. Doesn't really mean anything, Quint.

Karol

[Quintus 6,495]

It could mean that Snyder was brave enough to tell Nolan to "STOP SENDING ME ALL THESE WORDS TO PUT IN IT."

[crocodile 9,724]

You think they had words?

Karol

[Quintus 6,495]

Maybe they communicated with mime.

[Ollie 1,375]

That article makes me even less enthused. Nolan was the saving grace.

[crocodile 9,724]

Karol

[A24 5,156]

From the look of it, Supes' future in movies is saved.

[crocodile 9,724]

I don't know how about you guys, but I really like this poster:

Karol

[Rachael Foley 10,162]

Star Trek?

[alicebrallice 134]

that's definitely the best poster yet, imo.

[BloodBoal 8,711]

Skyscrapers, always skyscrapers...

[JoeinAR 1,957]

Skyscrapers, always skyscrapers...

able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!!!

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386]

Have we ever seen Supes leap in the movies?

[Wojo 2,458]

I don't know how about you guys, but I really like this poster:

Do you see the light?

THE BAND!

[Quintus 6,495]

Glad to see him extending his arms ahead of him in flight in that poster. Arms at the side is so boring!

[JoeinAR 1,957]

ditto, sort of like the bullet phasers, give us a continuous beam.

[Wojo 2,458]

Yes, because different is bad.

[Quintus 6,495]

Sometimes different is just not as good, Wojo. Did you ever consider that?

[Wojo 2,458]

I consider nothing. It comes with being inconsiderate and disingenuous.

[JoeinAR 1,957]

Sometimes different is just not as good, Wojo. Did you ever consider that?

He's just doing his same ole schtick Quint.

you know because different is bad.

[Wojo 2,458]

I'll give you that molded nipples on the batsuit different is bad. Sixteen pieces of warp core powered by water pipes different is bad. The blippy phaser beams different don't bother me. I couldn't care less how Superman holds his arms while flying.

And I'm going to guess that the TV series budget couldn't make a man fly convincingly, so jumping over buildings became his preferred method of travel. The Salkinds had a much larger budget than the TV shows, and so Superman was able to fly instead of simply jump.

[JoeinAR 1,957]

The blippy phasers bothered me. It wasn't being different or original it was stealing from a TV show named Battlestar Galactica.

It doesn't bother me how Superman flies or takes off. He took off differently in Smallville.

I'll go into Man of Steel far more receptive to the changes than I will this Saturday watching Star Trek Into Darkness.

Great, now say that again in geek for dummies language, please.

[#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386]

Cohesive thoughts is not something Wojo is great at.

[Wojo 2,458]

Subject verb agreement. We live in very different worlds.

[Quintus 6,495]

Drama queen.

TV Spot #5

All those shots with the flames bother me.

[Brónach 1,330]

The flames look weird in the quick shots.

[Jay 46,243]

I don't get why after all these trailers and TV spots we've still seen almost no Lois Lane

[BloodBoal 8,711]

[JoeinAR 1,957]

No that's in the sequel. the one scored by Michael Giacchino.

[filmmusic 3,269]

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, because I don't follow these threads.

Fan made: (music by Ryan Taubert)

All those shots with the flames bother me.

because they are not by ILM

[Wojo 2,458]

They wanted to show Lois Lane but feared people would confuse the trailer with the next season of Cougar Town.

[Jay 46,243]

That joke doesn't make any sense

[Wojo 2,458]

Why, because Amy Adams is 38 while Cavill is 30?
