I'm all for Brainiac in the next Superman. Mostly I just want to see them get some real supervillains on the silver screen this time. Lets see someone who can cause some real sh*t (besides Lex). I've seen the whole "mind of muscle" villainy of Lex again and again, I want someone who can fight Superman with his fists, not just his mind. I wanna see some punches thrown and some heat vision ownage. I loved SR it was a great beginning for the new kids who don't know anything about Supes besides maybe Smallville (where Clark isn't Superman yet) Singer did a great reintroduction of Supes to the world, now its time to get down to business. Braniac I think is the obvious and best choice for the villain in the next Superman movie. That being said I hope Brandon was kidding about the Bizarro thing, cause...that would just be stupid.
hmmm theyre shooting for 2009... my guess is that it will be out a little before that like christmas 08 or if we are lucky summer 08. because when they guesstimate these dates/years they like to over compensate for time and script problems. i like the idea too that it will be more like a comic book/action flick and not as dramatic, even though i really have no problem with drama but i REALLY want to see some nice eye candy/ cgi effects with superman kicking ass. its about time.

Umm... nope.
They won't start shooting it till the spring/summer of next year.(2007)
Digital effects work on films of this size takes 1year to a year and half. (including pre-vis animatics, which may take place before/during shooting)
As the effects are being worked on, you have to edit the footage thats been shot live action, and then wait for digital effects to get close to finished so that you can make any changes necessary.
Then you add sound effects and music.
Plus, you have to set up marketing (posters, trailers, and toys) and promo deals with fast food chains and others.....
So all-in-all, it takes about 2 years (for an effects-heavy action spectacle like Superman) from the start of filming the actors until it comes out.
well, i know for a fact that film music is usually recorded within five to six weeks before opening day, allot of what you said can be done simultaneously, i know that they worked on digital shots for Revenge of the Shit while they were shooting live action. it really is all relative to how much money goes into pre production and how big the pre-vis/visual effects/concept design crew is. it took the bruckheimer crew only two years to complete dead mans chest i think. i may be wrong with that one though...
When I said 6 movies for Superman I didn't mean evil...how come after caring so much by dedicating my time to it. A character never dies when you love it. Zod is dead to you not to me.
haha yup, redcaped, stop preaching like a christian with his faith, zod is dead, brandon didn't even hint towards zod, now doomsday in the third film would be awesome, a titanic battle, and they can play on the idea that doomsday may or may not kill superman like he did in the comics.
really? i never would of known from him falling in the pit, does it show more or something in deleted scenes?
In the next film I'd like to see a new trio, working together at points, brainiac and luthor working together, obviously lex using brainiac, they create bizarro, except he can be really mean looking, not like the oaf in the comics and anime. all hell can break loose with them three in a story of superman, then the coming of doomsday in the third, lex included
There aren't real good option for continuing the reloaded Supes franchise unless DC Begins extending the movie universe of his characters.A plot like that of JLU for Doomsday would be silly, considering a whole JLA formation was wrecked from him.The pantheon of characters is too poor to have a chance of picking up someone without making big mistakes.Maybe Parasite and some other members of Supes rogue galleries acting together, or someone like Darkseid, who'd need let's say a hour to be exposed and explained, then for the rest of the movie, the fight with Kal El on his planet, ending like in the TAS episode where his citizens takes him away to heal him, with DS saying:
I am many things Kal El...but here, I AM GOD.
Leaving possible links for a sequel to introduce the New Gods.
