Yeah, heat vision. I'm sure I've seen Dean Cain (Lois & Clark) and Tom Welling (Smallville) do the same.
Be excellent to each other. And party on!

Could they grow beards?

His mastery of the ricochet technique must rival Dredd's or he'd never be able to keep that 'short back and sides' haircut!

I'm just glad they're doing an origin story.  A lot of people won't know Superman's origin, or who he is.

Looks astounding to me.

As for another origin story. Yet another of example of comic fans never being happy. Complaints when the last one was a continuation of the Reeve movies, complaints because this one is not.

Don't recall that being a major problem - I think there were more complaints that it was shit.

Professor Bear

Yes.

That was flippancy on my part.  I can only speak personally and not for comics fans as a collective, but of the many problems I had with Superman Returns, none of them had anything to do with it being a sequel to the Reeves films - quite the opposite, as being so allowed them to use the John Williams theme, and to not bother with another superfluous origin for arguably the most well-known superhero in the world.
MOS' problems - and this is obviously speculative as we've only the trailers to go on - will more than likely stem from the fact that there is nothing in that trailer that is actually original, although it has nice music, and the CGI from Skyline and the end of Avengers looks nice alongside all those shots of Iron Man flying really fast.

FTFY.

Cheers!

Hopefully the main character doesn't spend the third-act trying to turn off the ubiquitous alien-blue-beam at the centre of the city. We haven't seen that before.
