REVISITED: 10 Things I want from Zack Snyder's Man of Steel

Evidently, no dice on that. The snippets we've heard of Hans Zimmer's score up to now have gotten some good marks from fans anticipating the movie, but unless I've missed something we've yet to hear his definitive Man of Steel theme (I'm not counting the trailer music unless I actually hear it in the movie). Time will tell if anything as iconic as the Williams theme comes of it, so the more pressing question now is, will Zimmer at least produce something as impactful as the Dark Knight score?
Hard to say at this point. From the latest trailers, Lois is clearly wise to Superman's existance, but has Kal-el established his identity in Metropolis yet? A few teasting glimpses of Henry Cavill holding a pair of glasses is the most we've seen of the mild-mannered reporter. Perhaps the film will end with Lois laying eyes on him in suit and tie, and giving a knowing smirk...
See above. Only the full film will hold the answers.
See below.
While Man of Steel is clearly retelling the origin and putting focus on Kal-el - the outsider to humanity - questioning his place in the world, the focus also seems to be upon Superman rising up as a symbol of hope. Perhaps we'll find the happy medium without turning to melodrama.
Doesn't look we've got anything to worry about here. Between shots of Superman landing against the bank vault, to Perry White and Jenny Olsen running from a collapsing building, it appears very much that Metropolis is gonna need from FEMA love stat.
Still remains to be seen. Snyder is no stranger to casualties, even in a PG animated flick. Of course, your guess is as good as mine who it could be.
We've already gotten glimpses of Clark engaging in some costume-less heroics, and of Superman and Zod tearing each other up. No worries on this end.
While I'd love something to rival the opening credits of Donner's original, I'm sure Snyder will put his own spin on the opening, which probably wouldn't involve Supes in costume. I just hope we get a title logo at the START of the movie for a change.
Eagle-eyed trailer watchers have already spotted a LexCorp high-rise, which on its own could indicate the direction of future movies - namely, Lex as diaboloical the corporate head honcho rather than a yuckster land-grabber. What else could potentially be hinted at, well, who knows what nefarious plans Snyder and company are in LEAGUE with...
(Revised thoughts with film's premiere nearing)
You bring up some excellent points, X.
#1: I'm totally with you on John Williams' classic score. Every time I think of Supes, I think of two things: Christopher Reeve and John Williams' music. I understand that 'Man of Steel' is more of a reboot but I'm still hoping to hear some of Williams' classic themes spread throughout [John Ottman did an excellent job of doing that in 'Superman Returns'].
#3: I'm a little worried that I have yet to see any stills or scenes with Cavill as the Clark Kent we all know and love. We'll see.
#6: I would love to see chaos and destruction in Metropolis, much more than we saw in 'Superman II'. [chuckle, chuckle]
#7: Fuck yeah dude. Make it as real as possible despite a man flying around in a red and blue costume.
#10: I would love to see a hint or a post credit involving a future villain. I want to see Lex Luthor again, but in a secondary role to a Doomsday, Darkseid or Brainiac.
Excellent list!
With most of these, I don't believe you have too much to worry about X. I think this film meets your criteria. I think this film will meet all of our preferences that so many other Superman films missed over the years.
God I want to see this film! Sensationally detailed and passionate list X!

I saw it in IMAX 3D and while it was a great experience there wasn't much I can remember that stood out to me in the format.. other then the occasional laser shot and definitely the red vines during the beginning of the movie.
The 3D was quite good, but not amazing. I thought it was really well done for a post-conversion, even though post-conversions have gotten a lot better as of late. There were several instances of stuff being thrown at the screen which worked and it wasn't overdone but more than anything it was about depth, and for the most part that was really well done and adds to a movie especially like this with the vast environments whether it be inside a volcano or during the spaceship chase(s). It could've been better but it's worth spending an extra couple bucks for it if you aren't a 3D hater. I'm glad I saw it that way, it made it more immersive.
that Mystic River one looks like a Blag Flag ad or something kind of haha


















That is a beautiful poster you made. I love the attention to detail such as the creases you added into it. Seeing how you went about making it was pretty fucking cool man.
