Oh man. 

Chills. 

“Krypto, take me home”. I’m not crying you're crying. Shut up.

Wow, I was always a Superman fan, in all his incarnations. However, I don't see the point in bringing him back in another lame-o, CGI-rich movie treatment. Not exactly an original idea. I think it's an insult to the film-going public that we won't respond to anything original.

Not a drone.

In related news - the Christopher Reeve Story is now on Max - very well done:

Who are you? Lex Luthor? Brainiac? Granny Goodness?  Go darken someone else’s thread, thou cynic.

Oh, go kneel before Zod or something.

I grew up on Superman comics and the whole DC universe of the 60's.

I haven't been an uncritical fan of all of the Superman movies though.

This looks very promising.

I watched the trailer a few times now. It has me very excited. What I observed is that it doesn’t offer a lot of plot details at this moment, mostly a lot of short action vignettes. It introduces a lot of the characters will be seeing, including my favorite: Krypto, the super dog (yes he has activated my inner 10-year-old). I am happy to see them going deeper into the DC character roster for this movie.

I don’t see how you can make a modern superhero movie without CGI right now. I think the problem that has happened in recent years is a number of movies have decided that enough CGI can mask poor storytelling. James Gunn, in my opinion, uses CGI to support strong storytelling rather than the other way around.
