the outside undies is iconic and is part of the suit for 70 years. That pic you posted he has outside undies, but they're blue not red...

This redesign is very ugly. I thought I read or heard somewhere that they were instead going back to the same suit worn in the Christopher Reeve movies (which I wish would happen), but obviously that information was wrong.

I don't think they can. The families of Seigel and Shuster (the creators of Superman) are locked in a years long legal battle for ownership of Superman, and the push is on to make him as different as possible from what they created so Time/Warner and DC can argue this is so different from what they came up with, they have no claim on the property.

The new costume seems sillier to me. It makes him seem like he's on his way to a fetish party.

Qfan, thank you for explaining this to me.

I'm not sure I buy that--not saying you're ieing, but it's still clearly the Siegel and Shuster character, red underwear or not. I still say he should at least have the red belt his new costume has to break up the blue.

What did everyone think of the trailer preceding The Dark Knight Rises?

If not for the DC/Legendary/Syncopy/Warner Brothers idents, I wouldn't have guessed it was a trailer for Man of Steel during the first couple of seconds. laugh.png

The trailer narrated by Kevin Coster:

The promo does look good. Henry Cavill is a hottie. Warner Brothers is cheap as hell though for reusing music from The Lord of the Rings for the trailer.

I think that's more of a "teaser" than a "trailer". I'm going to guess the first trailer will come out on Superbowl Sunday. I love what Nolan and Goyer did with Batman, so I can't wait to see what their story for Superman will be.

Trailers often have music from other movies. Since you mentioned LOTR, part 2 famously used music from Requiem For a Dream.

But compare how many people watched and and could recognize the music from Requiem from a Dream to the many millions who watched and could recognize the music from Lord of the Rings. Warner Bros could make more of an effort here. They have invested tons of money in rebooting the Superman franchise. Why on earth would they cheap out on the trailer music?

I have a feeling I am going to hate this film, I don't like the cast and I personally loved Superman Returns but that got canned. sad.png I don't want Nolan directing this. Superman is a completely different protagonist then Batman.

I saw the teaser with the LOTR music in the theater recently and it fits perfectly. It was a very inspired choice and it looks like this is going to be amazing.

As for the suit, I don't think we can judge until we see how it looks in the movie. Although, I have to say, Cavill is looking tremendously good.
