Superman: Man Of Steel (2013)

And;

It's not an S, on my planet it means Hope.

That's just what his dad told him. It's actually the Kryptonian equivalent of a Chinese symbol tattoo and means 'Chicken Chow Mein'!

I caught that weird little General Zod broadcast last night...

Isn't your planet Earth?

Superman's a fifth columnist. How do you think Zod found us?

I was gonna see this anyway but the new trailer is definitely an improvement on the emo stuff.

[Stan]

I actually quite like the Superman costume, but that Zod looks horrible! Let's hope that's not his outfit for the whole film!

Yeah, hopefully. They all appear to wear Supermanesque costumes on Krypton.

Do we know if that's Ursa on the left?

It's Faora.

see now this may be the origin story again but it really looks like there doing something diferent this time, it looks like they've gone for Krypton as a bunch of super comunists (i guess this is why the writers reference RedSon) which seems a different take, and looks like a good 20 minutes or so may be spent on Krypton charting its culture and bit of history so all up I'm not overly fused at another origin story as long as there's plenty of super punching involved.  Of course i may be wrong and this could be another borefest like Returns as I am getting all this info off a 3 minute preview i've watched about 50 times now.

Wasn't Zod essentially space Hitler at one point? I actually wonder if the yanks can tell the difference between communism and fascism.

DC started distancing Superman from his somewhat socialist appearance only a few issues into his history. This origin film will probably be him seeing how great the American way is and how it is the only way in time for the end; the US general/President whoever who doesn't like Superman early on in the film will no doubt give him a wink or a thumbs-up at the end and Superman will salute, letting everybody know he will always be there to defend America's interests. Being a Snyder film, he'll then fly up in slow motion to a screeching electric guitar soundtrack.
Roll credits.

I'm looking forward to the part where Superman punches a guy really hard, it's slowed down for the wind up, sped up for the delivery and then slowed down again for the follow through. Classic Snyder.

I hope there are loads of explosions in the background as that happens*, because that would be amazing.

So long as they recreate the "I AM A MAN" 'punch, scene from Superman at World End complete with disembowled cyborg then the film can have my money.

Sweet - I'll not have to go see this now, as everyone here seems to know exactly what will happen, all I need to do is read the posts!

Psst! It's some guy saved some world and some girl from some evil guy! Now you got the plot!
