Superman (July 11th, 2025)

I hate that shot in general. Gunn said it wasn't Cgi. Lol ok.

 

[Mr. Awesome]

Even The Hollywood Reporter and Forbes is talking about it lol

While I think the shot looks pretty bad, it's strange the amount of chatter it's generated.

 

[jye4ever]

His goofy face did make everyone stop talking about the baggy goofy costume.

Good job WB lol

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I’m excited and fairly positive for this film, but that shot is abysmal.

 

[ironwez20]

I think when it comes to Superman (the first superhero) people are going to find things to nitpick about but that shot is ugly.

Must be a slow news month.

 

[ironwez20]

Well the new Spider-Man actor just said “I was afraid the show was gonna be woke” so now people are turning there attention on that. Apparently he’s too stupid to realize Spider-Man was always “woke” .

It might have helped if they had released a proper full shot of him in the costume, as every other Superman film and series has done. Instead of forcing people to judge everything off of set pics, gifs, and screenshots.

 

[Wor-Gar]

They are lowering expectations.

 

[The Buffinator]

Must be a slow news month.

 

[EndoSickness]

Yes??

In that post there's only ONE Henry Cavil GIF is where I'm gettin' at.

O. Ok

 

[YoNoSe]

Nobody told him Superman would be slightly more scrutinized than the D list tree person he got rich off. That dog better be funny.

 

[The Buffinator]

Whoops!

[Wor-Gar]

Sounds like WB and DC have a lot more money to pony up for this one.

 

[T8OO]

It's happened before.

So they sue whenever a Superman movie comes out?

 

[jye4ever]

Pretty much yup, meanwhile the grand kids get to hang out on the sets lol

I must say I'm finding a lot of excitement for this new Superman film! I still really like Man of Steel, but I'm equally interested in seeing this new Supes in their comic-book like world.
