I saw it tonight on while watching "Smallville". It came as a surprise because it just popped outta no where, I freaked. Still haveing a hard time with the new guy but we'll see. Jol El was talking the whole time..
I liked the part where dozens of people just stood looking "up at the sky"

They had said that they were showing the trailer earlier in the week on a commercial on the WB channel.Anyway,it was great but they could've had Brandon Routh talk.Other than that,it was a great trailer and I'm looking forward to the movie.

Well, i don't really watch TV by choice, anyway. And thats besides the fact that i have work and school practically all day everyday, well 5 days. I only watch "Smallville" and local and world news.
Routh talking would've been cool, But i like Hopkins a.k.a. Jor El talking, he said something but I bet it was powerful, i didnt even really listen to him just his voice cause I was so into watching the trailer and Superman.
But I did manage to hear Jor-El say something like "I give my only son" something like that...lol aw maan this movies gonna own..I like X-men and pt 3 will probably be nice, but Superman Returns might smack it hard.

Yeah I knew about the trailer ahead of time as well, but anyway I thought it was freakin amazing. Especially where- like you said- everyone was looking up in the sky. I also loved the part where he flew above the clouds right infront of the sun, simply beautiful. I am now a million times more excited for SR than ever before

That was Marlon Brando talking and they were using lines from Superman:The Movie since this movie takes place after the Superman II movie.

You sure? Because wasn't Hopkins suppose to be Jor El? It did kinda sound like Marlon Brando, but it kinda sounded like Anthony Hopkins too. And I even heard something about using Brandon's archival footage as well.

No,it was Jor-El and they're going to use the footage from Donner's Superman II that was never used.No one is playing Jor-El,they're just using Marlon Brando's old footage from Donner's Superman II.

If there was anything about this guy being Jor-El,it was a rumor created by an idiotic fan.

Actually, Anthony Hopkins would make a bad Jor-El after all, if you really think about it.
I dunno what Superman was doing 70 miles up in the air in space, either praying or regenerating or recharging but he flew down towards, what I think was Metropolis, but how can that be? The trailer showed a coastal city from space that Supes flew into and isn't metropolis in Kansas Maybe he's fighting crime there too, he was always everywhere after all.
I'm amped. This will be the Uber comic movies of all movie of all time.

It's true Anthony Hopkins was actually signed on to play Jor-El.......5 years ago lol. Wizard magazine had a whole article about "The New Superman Movie"
But that was wayu before Singer, or even Brett Ratner were even considered as director. Hopkins dropped because the movie wasn't making any progress. (Keep in mind this was back when they were going to start the series over, then bryan Singer came along and showed them the light....)

do you guys know if they're keeping the same theme? i don't think i can ever get used to a new Superman theme....
OH and the beginning of the trailer was eerily similar to the beginning of Batman Begins (kid falls thru and drops except the former probably finds out he can't be hurt or he floats...and the latter gets freaked out by bats)

I loved the trailer. It's just that damn costume. It's really bothering me. And they kinda jacked up the emblem. They messed with the emblem and made it look like brandname for a children's toy.
But otherwise the trailer rocked. Hopefully, I can get over the costume....
But in "Smallville", Metropolis is in Kansas. I remember Clark and Lana looking at a far away Metropolis from atop a windmill on the outskirts of Smallville, and Smallville is in Kansas, right?
And isn't Smallville in Kansas in the comics too?

I love the new costume and I think Brandon Routh will be a great Clark Kent/Superman.
