wow, never thought I would say this about a superman movie, but that looks pretty damn good.


I was sold the second I saw Spacey as Lex Luthor.

5/2/2006 9:33:44 PM

holy shit

superman could be played by a rusty bucket

but i would still see this shit because kevin spacey will chew up every scene he's in

5/2/2006 9:44:28 PM

this movie may be turning out to be like Batman (1989) when Jack Nicholson got all the attention instead of Michael Keaton. Kevin Spacey will bring a wide audience to see his performance.

5/2/2006 9:47:57 PM

You know, in my day, "leaked" didn't mean published by the production studio.

5/2/2006 9:48:17 PM

Dude, this looks insane. I still think that new guy can never top Christopher Reeve but Spacey definitely one ups Gene Hackman.

5/2/2006 9:48:46 PM

You know, in my day, "one ups" didn't mean is ripping off the characterization of Luthor as portrayed by.

5/2/2006 9:52:37 PM

holy shit

that was pretty awesome

I'm really glad that they kept the original music in.

the CGI looks pretty crappy though

5/2/2006 9:53:46 PM

^probably still touching it up. with a production budget just under $200mil, they better get it right.

5/2/2006 9:57:06 PM

god i love Froshkiller in a nohomo way.

5/2/2006 10:25:13 PM

I'm waiting for General Zod to show up.

5/2/2006 10:31:54 PM

the CGI looked good to me...

and kevin spacey acted a lot like gene hackman, but that's a good thing...he did a good lex luthor

5/2/2006 10:38:35 PM

i loved the new music from the first trailer, it was a great tribute to the original music.

that said, including the original music in the second trailer made me even more convinced that superman has indeed returned.

now all i need is a good "batman begins" sequel and a kickass spiderman 3 and all my superhero dreams will be fulfilled...

5/2/2006 11:33:05 PM

thank god they didn't pick tom welling for the lead role

5/2/2006 11:51:19 PM

im still boycottin this until someone like froshkiller convinces me not to

5/3/2006 12:00:14 AM

I was down on the idea of a new Superman movie until I saw this trailer.

5/3/2006 12:01:46 AM

Tom Welling would have been a good pick for it. He even has more muscle which would have filled out the superman costume better.

5/3/2006 12:08:52 AM

supposedly kevin spacey makes his luthor more sinister than hackman, which is probably a good thing

5/3/2006 12:31:17 AM

i saw that preview like 2 months ago

5/3/2006 12:33:25 AM

Brandon Routh (Superman) actually looks and sounds like a young Chris Reeves; its about as close as you could get. im gonna go into it the way i did Batman Begins- i went in with zero expectations, and it turned out to be one of my all-time favorites. i think its gonna be one hell of a movie.

this trailer is very well put together, def. looking forward to this

5/3/2006 12:47:44 AM

We should be getting this movie at the IMAX theatre here in Raleigh too. We have also been told that parts of it will be in 3D in IMAX only, which is going to be interesting to see how that works.

5/3/2006 12:48:01 AM

^i heard about that...

maybe thats why the budget has gone through the roof

5/3/2006 1:53:54 AM

lois lane has a kid

5/3/2006 3:10:37 AM

eh... i think the story line is gay. they already did the lex luthor discovers the fortress of solitude bit and superman's secrets shit. also, i could do with less of the lois lane love affair, but i understand that's a critical part of the comic book series. still, it doesn't have to be the focus.

still, i've been pumped about this movie for years now, long before it was even filmed. who doesn't love superman, right? i'm looking forward to what today's technology can bring to the series, as well as kevin spacey's performance. i loved his personality in the scene they showed in the trailer where he was fucking with lois lane. he drew me in, and i laughed my ass off when he said, "nooooot!"

everytime i see a still of spaceys smug luthor

i think to myself

"so thats what Jack Vincennes looks like if he were bald"

he's gonna be all like "Rolo Tomossi"

5/3/2006 9:47:50 AM

i still hate the belt

5/3/2006 11:53:43 AM

the trailer didn't do anything for me, but i'm still looking forward to the movie.

5/3/2006 12:18:13 PM

Hell, Superman doesn't do anything for me but I'm looking forward to the movie. Probably the Spacey as Luthor thing. It has to be. Or the "S" on the belt buckle. That's hilarious.

5/3/2006 12:43:04 PM

I'm too much of a dork to miss this movie.

5/3/2006 6:59:19 PM

^^ He won it at a super rodeo. Don't hate.

5/3/2006 7:00:55 PM

the best part was when Luthor freaked out and started yelling

5/3/2006 8:35:29 PM

Spacey looks perfect..

5/3/2006 9:59:32 PM

TOO MUCH USE OF CG

SPLURGE ON A REAL FUCKING CAPE

[Edited on May 3, 2006 at 10:18 PM. Reason : christ ]

5/3/2006 10:15:21 PM

Trailers often use unfinished CGI.

See also: Spider-Man.

5/4/2006 12:07:27 AM

Little dissapointed in the Kate Bosworth selection. She's alright and I know they probably weren't trying to go big-time actress with the small-time Superman character....but I think they could have done a little better.

5/4/2006 10:21:08 AM

You know who I'd kinda like to see play Lois Lane? Eliza Dushku. And you know who would've made a great Lana Lang 10 years ago? Sarah Trigger.

5/4/2006 10:32:50 AM

"Eliza Dushku"

Yes sir. I wonder if she's a good enough actress for this movie. She also might be too hot.

5/4/2006 11:08:25 AM

Rachel McAdams

5/4/2006 11:31:30 AM

She doesn't have the steel to play Lois.

5/4/2006 11:33:50 AM

blah. That monologue put over the preview sounds like they just took aunt may's little hero speech from spider-man2 and changed like 3 words.

5/4/2006 11:51:51 AM

Well, considering that Superman explored the whole power and responsibility thing for over 20 years before Spider-Man was conceived, you have to wonder who really ripped whom off.

5/4/2006 12:08:04 PM

so when is this movie set in the superman timeline? or are they just making something up about him leaving for a while then coming back

5/4/2006 1:54:01 PM

since the last two, Superman 3&4, blew so much ass in WB's eyes, this one takes place after Superman 2. he supposedly leaves for like 5yrs and then returns. i mean hey, if we didnt have Superman 3, there wouldnt be Office Space!

5/4/2006 2:14:46 PM

5/7/2006 6:18:52 PM

^ haha i had to go back and look at the trailere to see if he was actually in that shot.
