Maybe sex change operations is a superpower. Sort of like Supes throwing a seranwrap S shield. Non just used his obscure power.

An early review is up at Aint It Cool News. It's supposed to be extremely positive. It's also supposed to be extremely spoilery, so I won't be reading it.

I read it.

It wasn't that spoilery until BAMMO the writer drops a bomb. So yeah, beware.

Couldn't help myself.

That said, I'm still really looking forward to the film, even if a major point has been spoiled for me.

So tempted to read the review but, unlike Furious 6, I wanna go into this one blind.

So far Star Trek and FF6 have been a blast... I hope this continues the trend and or passes them.

I'm glad to see a Superman movie embracing the sci-fi elements of the character. Bring on Braniac in the sequels!

Wow, the production artwork is badass. Hell, that picture of Russell Crowe holding the cannon looks badass!

Spoiler:
Zod’s demise is unexpectedly shocking.

Yeah, that artwork is pretty sweet. I too am liking the sci-fi elements we're seeing of this.

Re: Superman: The Man of Steel (D: Snyder)

I hope they don't put out any more trailers with any additional footage. What they've shown so far has been the perfect balance of what to show and not overly showing. I don't want to see major action sequences in the trailer. The public knows a new Superman movie exists, but it really hasn't seen much "Superman action". I think going in fresh and being awed and surprised by whats on screen is really going to be a big part of this movie success.... if it is actually good.

Amusing but it does bring up a good point about the amount of work needed to clean up after these superheroes (and villains). The taxes (not to mention insurance rates) in Metropolis must be insane.

Is that footage of Cavill inserted or did he actually shoot stuff for the ad?

Went to Wally world with my nephew to check out some toys and came across the Zod, LL, and Superman Lego set. Dammitt, marketing got me again and spoiled a small plot point.

Just saw the new trailer...man, that was fucking awesome!

I wish they would have had this trailer play in front of Star Trek!

Has DC ever had an answer for that? Marvel did with Damage Inc. the concept is hilarious but realistic as well. Somebody has to fix that shit. I really really hope they do some short film(s) about them. The notion of it takes you back but it does make sense.

Latest TV Spot (#6) is the best one yet. It's only been released on facebook though.
