Third Superman Returns Trailer

By John Campea - May 22, 2006 - 08:57 America/Montreal

A TON of people have sent me a link to the third Superman Returns Trailer. This is the best trailer yet.

Now a lot of people (especially my Audio Edition Co-Host Doug Nagy) have been upset by the fact that there is going to be some romance and inner turmoil for the Man of Steel in this flick as evidenced by the trailers and commercials up to this point. I take a different point of view.

Superman is not The Hulk. Nor is he a Ninja. Superman has never been about all thrills smash em’ up non-stop action. He is a conflicted character with ideals stronger than himself… and those ideals make him face dilemmas on a daily basis, both personal and practical. This trailer shows that.

Also, this new trailer felt more like the original Superman than anything else I’ve seen so far. As far as I’m concerned, I think Singer has 100% taken the right path with this project. Now let’s see if I still feel that way after finally seeing it.

    The part were some guy shoots Superman in the eye and the bullet crushes against Superman’s eye and drop to the ground in slow motion. Geez that gave me goosebumps to last a life time.

    Pardon my french, but…that was f*cking awesome, son of a b*tch, Mr. Singer may have hit gold. I had goosebumps the entire time. Heck I even have them now as I’m typing. I can barely type. I hope and…so hope that it’s a wicked movie. The only time that I can remember being this excited for a movie was when the first Spiderman was about to release.

    I know everyone wants to slow time down or stop it, but man if I could only speed it up so June 30 is…TODAY!!

    Correcting the San Andreas Fault, stopping missles in their tracks, saving passenger jets in mid air – that’s all fair enough.

    But being shot in the eye and stopping yourself from blinking? Even for the last son of Krypton – that takes balls!

    Totally Routh . . .

    Well, here’s hoping Bryan Singer does for Superman, what Chris Nolan did for Batman and DC Comics will chalk up the second box office hit in a row.
    Shame the movie is only getting here(Portugal) in August, but until then I’ll be enjoying X-men 3: The Last Stand.
