        No, because Tyler Hoelchin is now the worst Superman ever (by a quadrillion miles)...he made me appreciate Tom Welling...

          That rubber suit will never be "Superman" to me, but I think Tom looks pretty good.

            I never liked that suit either. too dark and it looks like a wet suit better suited for aquaman. do like though they made the "s" crest look more like the golden age/earth-2 superman.

              I've not seen Tyler Hoelchin play Superman yet, although I'm not a fan of his smug look in the commercials I see. He would have to be pretty rough to be worse than Dean Cain in the part. Poor Dean, great guy just bad casting in my opinion.

                If you want to see Superman gets his butt kicked repeatedly by Supergirl, time and time again...and him saying to her that she’s stronger, faster, better than him...over and over again, then Tyler Hoelchin is your Superman. His Superman is the most useless bum superhero ever...everybody in the lame Supergirl show beats him into submission. In one episode, all the heroes were fighting to save the planet...except for Superman, who was knocked out unconscious and was in a coma for the duration of the episode. Pathetic. I’d rather see Pee Wee Herman play Superman.

                  It was ridiculous that green arrow in the crossover was the take charge leader but not "lil" superman.

                        ^Not that advanced yet. It would help though.

                        It's interesting when you blend Welling and Cavill's features, you get a really, really good Superman. The more chiseled jaw and brown eyes are Cavill, but the nose, hair, face shape is all Welling and somehow it gives more expression to Cavil's acting. Surreal to say the least.

                        But even with the shortness of this clip shows how flawed Snyder's thinking was. Here's the military, arbitrarily opening fire like its Kong v Godzilla and not two superfast human-size objects. Zach is a talented guy and he's mistaken that for being a deep thinker.

                          Is the WB exec that hired Snyder for this still employed? Zach is terrific st cinematography but is pretty much a firey nuclear waste carrying train detailing and crashing into an orphanage and animal shelter as a director. He should have been stopped after 300.
                          I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                          If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                            just looked to see what he's up to. A zombie pic with Dave Bautista and adapting the Fountainhead? really?

                              Snyder is pretty good at dystopian movies. I liked Watchmen and Dawn of the Dead. Superman, however, shouldn’t be a dystopian story and that’s one of the main reasons he wasn’t a good choice for director.
