Antje Traue, she's German.

Faora

I give Snyder amazing credit on this one, when you compare her to other photos. Snyder makes her look so good, she could have been Wonder Woman.

[Operation:Mego]

She does look attractive.

[Bruce Banner]

Faora is definitely channeling the Ursa look. Thought that from the first shot I saw of her.

I wouldn't throw her outta bed for eating kryptonite.

Though not scientifically sound, that phrase still sounded good.

Actually, Ursa was channeling the Faora look. Faora came first in the comic, so Ursa was originally created for the movie (she was based on Faora). However, due to her popularity, Ursa was made cannon in the comics too.

Why do I think we're going to get some cool Superman punching death rays action, ala the first Fleischer short?

And the comics as well:

[Hector]

I don't know if trailer number eight has been shown here...

I can't sleep!

I can't wait!


THE GREATEST SUPERHERO MOVIE OF ALL TIME IS NEARING!!!!

[MIB41]

Hey Hector. How well did Superman Returns live up to your anticipation prior to seeing it?

[Bruce Banner]

Faora came first in the comic, so Ursa was originally created for the movie (she was based on Faora).

I was referring to the look they chose for her in this movie, which is very close to Sarah Douglas's Ursa look (very short hair, clad in black), rather than the overall less severe look Faora traditionally had in the comics.

But they obviously figured Faora's comic look just wasn't mean enough for the movie.

[Bruce Banner]

So now, everyone can have their own personal Kryptonian sigil.

Oh, right. I get what you're saying.

Hector…prepare to use up your box of tissues.

I love that Space Christ shot.

I don't know if it was mentioned here, but apparently Zod tries to "tempt" Kal to join him.

Once I read that, and then saw the quick shot of Superman weakened/restrained, reaching up to the sun as it parts the clouds...

Krypton is heaven, Zod is cast into the abyss/Phantom Zone for waging war. He then comes to Earth in a allegory closer to Herod, and the Kents are now Mary and Joseph. You have Kal wandering about until he reappears at age 30 and takes his mantle as Jor-el's son.

This has soo many blatant allusions in it, I think it's going to really screw with some people because it's not being done in a derisive manner.
