Our Truth, Social Justice, and the UN Way!

What, that’s not what’s going to come out of this? Then I’ll be pleasantly stunned (not stuned)...

Thumbs down on the widows peak and receding hairline combo. Superman should look like male baldness does not exist on Krypton.
Don’t like the dark costume either.

IIRC he was based on Jesus.

The problem with Superman isn't the suit, its that he is practically invincible from the start and the audience knows it, so where do you go from there?

Back when he was invented, he didn't have all these powers. For instance, he couldn't fly, he could only leap tall buildings in a single bound. He just got more powerful as each writer gave him more abilities.

My understanding is that the textured costume allows for a better transition than a smoother suit when doing CGI shots. Not happy with the hairline or darker colors but the git the s symbol correct as well as the cape attachment points. Be interesting if they try to make him a darker character ... He’s always been the juxtaposition to batman and one of the few characters, being an alien, to put on a costume in his civilian life instead of the other way around.

He looks like a young Patrick McGoohan.
george reeves never had the ‘s’s curl in the hair either and i wish they would do a cgi version of him in a movie.

Superman simply can't compare to "Miracleman"...

Miracleman quote: "Yes, I'm here....you can go now... *Squish*"

Hanry Cavill is hot, but this already looks stupid. I’ll wait for the DVD.

Looks more like a handsome gangster than Kal-El.

The hair is ALL wrong. The costume is - meh. Doesn't look alien so much as reminiscent of Spiderman - on whom it looked good - on Superman - not so much.

Political correctness has already stained this movie...Laurence Fishburne cast as Perry White...

WTF?
