Hmmmm....

The Rubbermaid outfit is weird. I only hope they retell his origin, in EXCRUTIATING detail, 'cos it's the only way I'll know who this is....

*sigh*

Hard to tell but points on the "S" being big. It's embossed but not quite as over-the-top as the Returns suit. The red seems like actual red, although it seems muted here, but it may be the lighting.

Overall, I'm getting a bit of a Fleischer vibe from the color scheme.

Can't tell if he has trunks, but at least we don't have Jim Lee body armor!

Thanks for posting the photo, KW. Yeah, at least THIS Superman does look like a SuperMAN and not a Superkindaman or a Supergeek, so it has that going for it. The suit is okay from what I can tell of it in this single shot; looks better than the SR suit anyway, but I'm still not too crazy about the hugely 3D chevron on his chest. With any luck, this will be the movie in which we FINALLY get to see Superman be super....!

From this image, it's everything I didn't like about the SR suit, magnified

[palitoy]

I really like the cape and the guy physically looks like Superman, not in love with the dark tones and scales but I kind of saw that coming.

I only hope they retell his origin, in EXCRUTIATING detail, 'cos it's the only way I'll know who this is....

I may not see this movie in the theatre if it goes there, Superman origin stores are my personal Kryptonite...

He looks much, much better than I imagined. I like the hair. I'm tired of the Reeves. The S has a shield feel to it.

Now, if he was actually, you know, tall...

[Bruce Banner]

Interesting. Almost a mail-like texture... and the suggestion of vambraces on the wrists. Looks like they're trying to channel an armour vibe with the suit this time.

The "S" configuration has been tinkered with again.

The blue seems a little dark, but that might be the lighting. Cape looks good.

No forehead curl?
And yet he appears to have it in these shots:

Just saw a bigger, clearer picture of this via a link over on AICN and in that picture, you can see the "texture" of the suit much better. Unfortunately, it looks like Supes and Spidey both went to see the same costumer because they are both crazed with texturing. Since when did it become necessary to make costumes so freakin' busy? That's one this I liked about Cap's uniform---no texturing. Same thing goes with GL's suit----it may've have movement [since it was composed of energy], but at least no scales or whatever they're calling that particular pattern.

[boss]

the cape seems too long.

Man Hollywood is so scared of "tights" nowadays, they'd texture a movie version of Swan Lake.

At least the suit doesn't look "foamy" like the Returns costume. I know Routh was in good shape, but you could tell the suit was padded in places. I know George Reeves had pads too, but I prefer my Supes au natural.

What is this neopryne diving suit look for superheroes lately? First Spidey, now Supes! I'm not digging that. And the suit's too dark looking. I like the bright super looking royal blue and bright red suit better.

I just see the suit as Alien in nature......I mean they have 100% cotton or wool on Krypton???..... I think these colors get picked because of all the CG work in movies now......
