For those of you who don't understand the fuss.......sorry can't help. I might be exaggerating but I think this will be one of the best Superman movies made and the trailer alone says it all.
This version is dark and classy as f***, the Superman's logo is hot not to mention the new costume.

Can't wait!

The new trailer for Man of Steel came out last week and remembered this thread cheesy

Superman is faster than a speeding bullet and sexier than ever before! Man of Steel's full trailer was released Tuesday by Warner Bros Pictures, and Henry Cavill does not disappoint.

Clark Kent Is a Super Boy. Not a shocker, but the displaced alien boy growing up on earth is brave from the get-go. In the clip, he saves a classmate from a school bus accident, revealing his superhuman strength. His father later reprimands him for his heroism, reminding him, "You have to keep this side of yourself a secret." Even if, Pa Kent (Kevin Costner) says, that potentially means letting good people die.

As far as Christopher nolan, is involve with the man of steel project, I have no doubt that it is gonna be a blast, look at what nolan did with the Batman series , he took a batman that was so wack and turned it into a master piece.. I just hope prove me right just 1 more time as the world greatest movie producer

Seen the trailers and I am not overly excited or expectant. Superman is a super hero who doesn't lend himself easily to the darker portrayal (which worked brilliantly for Batman, Iron man). The story is pretty set in stone. Baby alien boy from Krypton is adopted and raised by parents in the relative safety, tranquility and small town of Smallville. Eventually moves to metropolis and becomes a super hero. There really isn't much room for new or interesting story-lines or character development. Personally I am not expecting much, but no doubt it should be miles better than the last. At the very least it will be great to have a high definition 3D Superman film, take advantage of the latest advances in CGI.

Also while I understand that they are going for the epic film appeal, I wish both trailers didn't feel they simply lifted the Lord of the Rings/Gladiator soundtracks. Its very distracting.

It is a fixed story line, but doesn't make it impossible to adapt a different angle to the story. That was what I thought about the movie Snow White and the Huntsman, simple storyline set in stone but Sanders turned it into something else, adding that dark element, that made it feel like a new story.

The soundtrack alone lends that eerie feel and im curious to find out what. Kevin Costner as Clark's dad and Russell Crowe as Jor El is enough to get me excited. Nolan is an amazing director I don't think he'll fail with this one.

My concern now is, after this movie will Nolan go on to do the Justice League? Im beside myself with joy just thinking about it grin

Unfortunately, it is not Chris Nolan that is directing it. He is just one of the producers. Zack Snyder is not bad, though. But I wish it is Nolan handling the movie. He basically rejuvenated the Batman franchise. If he can turn just a bat-man into such a marvelous movie as we saw in TDKR, just imagine what he'd be able to do with the Boss himself, Superman.

mind u zack snyder has proven himself as a creative director,look at what he did with a low budgeted 300 ,he turned 300 into what every good adventure fan has been expecting to see in the big screen. zack snyder + chris nolan =the badest superman ever.

I love Superman.

Nolan is only the producer in this movie, not the director. Snyder did a good job with the movie 300 & The Watchmen, hopefully this movie will be epic too.

Re: Man Of Steel - Superman! by VillageBoi(m): 11:02pm On Jun 19, 2013
Oh well I actually prefered 'After Earth' to this... sorry folks but I didn't find it to be that interesting - RE: The hype!
Re: Man Of Steel - Superman! by khanivorous(f): 12:28am On Jun 20, 2013
This movie dey pepper me well well...

I spent 4 movies worth of anticipation on this man of steel..only to get destruction and wreckage

Like village boi said: HYPE

If someone can say After Earth which I think is the biggest flop ever is better then there is fire on the mountain
Re: Man Of Steel - Superman! by yoji: 8:34am On Jun 20, 2013
@ village boi: u lost it for me wen u mentioned after earth, d year's biggest flop and d final nail in shymalan's career. Sory but can't take ur views serious wit comments like that. After earth?!? That rubbish film? Their weapon of combat was a cutlass which is close range weapon wen they had d technology for a long range weapon like a gun. They cud make space ships but no long range weapon!!!! So they always had to b close to d monster to kil it.
@ khanivourious: u are obviously not a fan and I understand that. Jus wondered y u bothered watchin it. Destruction is to b expected in a superhero movie. Avengers, ironman3 and dark knight rises did so and found success and u wanted man of steel to b transformed into snow white. In 2006, d brandon routh version tried a sentimental movie and flopped so whatchu expect
