That's beastin'.

Did Alex Ross draw that.

He almost looks as if he is about to destroy earth lol

That's an awesome poster, although I wish he had more of a barrel chest. He looks a bit too scrawny and emo.

I think the fact that not too much is being said about the plot of the movie means that Warner Bros. is trying to sell this thing just from the name. "Ooh, it's Superman. He's back in theaters! You like an American icon, right?" What little I do know of the plot , I don't like.

Baby mama drama = win =p

"YOU'RE BALD!"

It's kinda funny how they're supposedly jumping off the point where Supes banged Lois when he became human for a short time in Superman II. They're hinting at the idea that the kid is actually his, and that he's flown away leaving a preggo lois back on earth. I guess Singer has completely forgotten that they made two other Superman movies after the 2nd one. They both sucked, but still. I think they should've just started from the beginning and did a complete retelling of the origin story.

Agree with you on that since WB already has a sequel in mind which'll most likely end up a trilogy.

The UK trailer is now online:

It's much better than the domestic trailer IMO and will most likely be the second trailer that's supposed to be attached with X-Men: The Last Stand when it opens.

Wow that was badass, the last part was funny lol.

Is is just me, or are a lot of the promotional photos putting emphasis on weird stuff. For example: Look at the pic of Superman standing in Simo's sig. He's tipped back slightly and the S on his chest has a glare on is and is slightly out of view. But his hips are pushed forward seeming to draw attention to his crotch. I just don't get it. The S on his chest (which should be huge) should be the primary focus of the shot instead of his package.

That trailer was way more cool. Hahaha, a bullet in the eye. Geeze. Then it was like, BAM! The S!

Just heard about the $300 million budget. WTF?!?! Aside from Kevin Spacey, where is the money going? Does this film have a $250 million FX budget or something?

Its you.

My guess is special effects. If you go to bluetights.net you can check out video journals of the production of the movie. They developed a lot of new stuff for flying rigs that probably cost a fortune. In addition, I think they pretty much built an entire airplane just for the movie.

If you count the cost of everything... including the costs of all the crap back when Tim Burton and Kevin Smith were attached to the project ages ago, it could very well be considered the most expensive movie ever made.

What is this, Elitism Returns.

Leave me out of your little sex-fight, okay.

This Supes is far too skinny, that's all I can say. It's especially jarring when I've been watching the animated Superman for so many years.

I know his strength is innate, but if you spend so many years lifting cars and buildings, you'd think he'd still get a bodybuilder physique.

But it's effortless to him. It's like you lifting a gallon of milk.

I've seen plenty of occasions where he's lifting something that qualifies as "heavy" to him, based on his grimacing expressions and whatnot. Super or not, I'm sure the guy gets a good workout once the day is over.

Yeah but where are you gonna find someone that BIG and LOOKS like superman/clark kent and can ACT? It's not that easy hehe

That's true Freddy. I'm hoping that this Brandon Routh guy can act the part really well. Cause if he can't...and he doesn't even look the part... ugh. At least we can bet that Spacey will be awesome. And Kate Bosworth is nice to look at.

Not really anticipating this movie at all but I just wanted to say that Christopher Reeves wasn't 'built' or 'muscled' at all and he still had the part.

When does this come out? I'm in some serious anticipation here.

The film doesn't have a $300 million budget. That was just some hyperbole caused by an Australian paper that reported on the budget without a source which US trades picked up on andh couldn't tell the difference between their currency and exchange rate compared to the AUD. The actual budget is around the $185 million mark.

How much bigger does the guy have to be then?

June 30th in the US. :)

There are currently 4 TV spots airing in the US at the moment so here are direct links to all 4:

Eh, not big enough Simo. I want him to look like this:

fat? =p

So it's ONLY the 4th-most-expensive movie ever made?!?!?! :)

(Titanic, King Kong, Spiderman 2, am I right?)

But yeah, the Burton/Smith leftovers probably didn't help the budget.

And what's with the flying rig thing? Shouldn't they be doing this with green screens and computers? :)
