Blockbuster season is officially underway with Iron Man 3 and Stark Trek Into Darkness both in theaters. Not wanting to let anyone forget about the other major comic book property being adapted this summer, Warner Bros has released a new trailer for Man of Steel that is filled with Zod, fighting, flying, and lasers! Let the destruction begin!

The colors of Zack Synder are flying high in this trailer as the action becomes front and center and feels, in some aspects, completely different than trailers we have seen previously.

As much as I will always have a soft spot for the Christopher Reeves Superman film, I have have also always longed for a Superman film where we get to see this kinds of spectacles. I wait with great anticipation.
Cosign. I dream deferred, as long as it has the passion of yester-year is always going to be a winner. But it kind of makes you wonder how Ghost busters or Back to the future would have turned out now instead of then.
Now that there are survivors of krypton, doesn’t this premise feel more like an Invincible story line than a superman one?
Admittedly it all looks awesome so I’m stoked either way
considering that all of invincible is a riff/spoof/homage to (mainly) superman and other comics…nah I dont think so. its difficult for the originator of the premise to steal it.
Not to mention the copius amounts of kryptonians in the comics.
and by the way no knock on invincible its 1 of my fav books.
There has always been survivors of Krypton – Kandor, Supergirl, dogs, horses, cats, various astronauts, etc. and that’s not even mentioning all the Kryptonians in the phantom zone. Earth is sort of a Grand Central Station for Kryptonians. I liked the first two Superman movies, as well as Superman Returns, but let’s face it: The superman in those movies was, more or less, a Big Blue Pantywaist. Part of the problem was that having Superman fighting mortal foes, he had to pull his punches, but the other part of it was that since the movies were aimed at kiddies, they minimized the violence and relied on idiot gimmicks like spinning the world backwards and cellophane S shields instead of raw brute force. I have no problem with Kal-El punching Zod just as hard as he can.
I’m thinking this is gonna be the best superman of all time… Back in the day the graphics couldn’t keep up with the imagination – but now sky’s the limit… Literally. The search is over this guy beats the superman returns guy from Iowa to a pulp- faster than a speeding bullet – my engines rev’d up ready to wait in line… What about you all?
I think I’m most excited to see Michael Shannon as Zod. Guy is just fantastic in everything.
