Man of Steel - Final Trailer

[Bells]

So, little peck of upbeat news anyone?

New superman movie! C'mon... Iron Man 3 is already dawning on us, but Supes! Supes is suppose to change the game here... Marvel is going for Round Two of their Movie Making dominance, and they seem to be starting strong...

Superman is supposed to be the final non-shitty counter to that offensive... can they do it?

This is the final trailer, the one that set us for the whole thing... there might be a new teaser here or there, but this is the final montage. it shows us everything we need to know for the story... and here is what i took from it.

1) Be prepared for a good hour of humanizing backstory before Superman puts the cape.

2) They did the "ooooooh he was going to say superman but they got cutoff so they didn't ..." bit. ok movie... you get ONE of those. don't push it.

3) Be prepared for a lot of Zoom in action while two super beings cover great distances towards each other in seconds.

4) They explained the S with an Alien origin. That is actually a big relief to prevent corniness


All and all this is an Origin story, and i expect it to be good. Seems like there will be a lot more action, which the previous one was severely lacking... while not forgetting to tell us a character piece.

If we care to compare it to two other movies, one DC and one Marvel, i would say that the fair comparison is with Batman Begins and the first Iron Man movie. it's been a while since those came out... but i'm expecting to see that again.

Thing is, right now... Batman begins would pale in comparisson to what Iron Man 3 seems to be promising. Its a different game from when we started all those years back... they have their buffer window between the two movies, but comparisons are inevitable. So i guess its not completely unfair to say that as competent as Man of Steel seems to be right now... its an uphill battle if DC really wants to get it right this time.
