from all the TV spots i only seen the 1 and 4 and 5 but the one where his dad is saying u have to keep testing ur limits...i think we will get that through out the trilogy if a trilogy is made....this is a origin of superman he doesnt even know how strong he is or how strong he will get so i think IF this is made into a trilogy we will see some incredible and amazing stuff from him...if put the right way

ONE MORE MONTH FROM TOMORROW GUYS!

I hope those 2 hours and 20 minutes don't drag.

So why does the EMPIRE Executive Editor say in his article where he actually interviews Zach Snyder that it's around 2 hours 10 minutes?

@Irons That should have never been taken as confirmation. Zack Snyder just gave a rough idea of what the runtime would be.

Good time length, I like it. Though I'd also be happy with 6 hr 23min too

142 minutes too long

zach's 2:10 estimate might have been his estimate of "story time"... the 2:23 may be the update now that title and/or credits sequence is completed.

Hell, I could stand it to run longer, but I'm happy with this.

@marvelpsycho79 if the track listing on the soundtrack is any indication, you may be disappointed. but i feel like it'll be ok if it's set up as "we learn about it as clark learns about it." if they just jump around at random times, i agree it'll be annoying.

Nice! Perfect runtime, the first 30-45 minutes should be about Clark growing up and the rest should be Superman! :P

I wonder if there will be a mid credits scene

[frick] it, I'm going just for the cinematography alone. Snyder knows where to hit my G(Geek)-Spot and it's with those extraordinary shots. The one in the tv spot, as that Kryptonian fluffs their cape, back facing the camera, it's beautiful. Sucker Punch may have sucked story wise (I actually adore the plot), but as a film, it's beautiful. The anime scene (Babydoll, sword out in hand, one knee on the ground, crouched, bangs flowing in the air) is so iconic. Not a Superman fan, but I can't wait for this.

Hopefully, it doesn't drag like TDKR did.

Just the right ammount of time. Anyone else notice that its pretty much the sane run time of Batman Begins? I know its no big deal but since they're both written by Christopher Nolan and David Goyer and they're both origin stories.

Fleshing out the Krypton story, growing up into bearded Clark story, then.... Superman. Good run time.
