Finally saw the SR trailer on the big screen Saturday night with another showing of King Kong.

It actually looked lamer on the big screen, if that is possible... :(

Well, as my Avatar would indicate, I'm excited about this film.

Glad to hear that you saw "Kong" a second time, Ben.

Because I'm happy for every $$$ that "Kong" makes. ;)

And my Avatar *was* Lois and Superman about to smooch. But then I found the "Sisterhood" image, and had to use it.

Total Film (a really cool British mag) has Superman Returns on the cover with some very interesting details: one I think is that the film will have a whimsical, 1940s almost Fleisher cartoon look about it (or something like that anyway.)

I can't wait! Anyway, you can get Total Film at most bookstores like Borders and Barnes and Noble. It's about 10.00, however, but it's a very good issue. :)

Entertainment Weekly has a cover story on this, although the article doesn't reveal all that much.

It does mention, however, that Spacey's interpretation of Lex Luthor is a little more intense and scary than Gene Hackman's. (who played up the comedy more.)

WHEN are they finally going to have the full trailer????? You barely see ANYTHING in that stupid teaser. :( Lame....lame....lame! :roll:

From what I understand, the FX are still under heavy construction!

Yeah, the look from the teaser and images is the 1978 Donner film meshed with 1942 Fleischer styling for Metropolis. Can't wait!

I hear that there's a sequence where Superman tears the wing off of a flying airplane. :D

Hope we get a trailer soon. It'll probably pop up sometime next month, maybe with WB's "Posiedon" or something.

You hit the nail on the head there.

WB are desperate for Posiedon to be a hit, so it's VERY likely (possibly even a no brainer) that the full trailer for Supes will debut with that, their only other early summer tentpole picture.

Makes sense! :)

Then again, maybe not...

ComingSoon.net's Superhero Hype! has confirmed that the new Superman Returns trailer will be enclosed in the can with Paramount's Mission: Impossible III, opening next Friday, May 5th and will also be attached to all prints of WB's Poseidon the following week, on Friday, May 12th.

But hey, it IS with ALL prints of "Poseidon". So I'm still kinda right. Right? :wink:

Yeah, you're right. It was a no brainer that it would be with Poseidon, but the M:I-3 news makes sense too.

After all, WB are not stupid and M:I-3 is probably more in the same audience target as Superman, while Poseidon is, albeit a remake, pretty uncharted waters.

See what I did there? ;)
