Jay Oliva is pretty deep in the Warner Brother's trenches, working on most of their animated projects, including directing their latest two, as well as working on storyboards for some of their live action films. One of those films that he just worked on was Man Of Steel, where Oliva said that a lot the ideas he had for The Dark Knight Returns Part 2 he couldn't do because he had already did them in Man Of Steel. "I can say it's awesome," he gushed. "One thing I can say is that there were some things in this movie (The Dark Knight Returns Part 2) that I didn't want to do because it's almost the same as Man Of Steel." He also went on to say that the action that you will see in The Dark Knight Returns Part 2 is the same type of action that you will see in Man Of Steel. "I did a lot of the action sequences, so you'll see a lot of action," he explained.

As of right now, Man Of Steel's plot points are pretty foggy with no real information available. You can catch the film which stars Henry Cavill, Michael Shannon, Amy Adams, Kevin Costner,Russell Crowe, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne, Christopher Meloni, Richard Schiff, and Harry Lennix when it opens on June 14th.

I'm hoping for lots of litle cameos. Brainiac would fit in there, if it were during the Krypton sequence. So would Doomsday.
I personally think it would be nifty if they were to slip a sneaky Pandora cameo, in there, as a reference to the storyline in which Supes lost his undies.

One flies in the open as the known earths protector and savior.

One hides in the shadows with an identity the world cannot know about protecting his city.

I was with my guy yesterday & I showed him Watchmen 2 get a feel of whats 2 come as far fighting scenes go. He said it was too long but really enjoyed Rorschach,but honestly who wouldn't. XD

All in all I hope we get 2 c this finally in a Superman Movie



I would bust a nut watching that n who better than Snyder 2 bring that scene to life.I'm hoping Supes finishes Zod like that.How bad ass would that be??

MrReese
MrReese - 1/24/2013, 11:29 AM
Honestly they can even use the same dialogue from the falcon punch scene & it would still make sense.That scene was made for Snyder 2 the tee.Plus it would go with Supes giving himself up 2 the gov't or w.e maybe thinking he is too dangerous....That is until he meets Zod & can actually let loose without a care bcuz "he can take it".

Man, I hope Supes rips off that vault and beats the shit out whoever thought it was a good idea to kick the goddamn Superman into a vault.

@Mystery didn't watch Dark Knight Redturns. Can you pelase enlighten me as how "Superman moves in the shawdows"?
CavEl

@ rbfn04 - Before you get all you, keep in mind that Superman wasn't allowed to be seen by the general public per RR's orders.

So he just flew really fast and never stopped to mingle with the crowd...just like in Miller's comic. So before you get all "Superman is blah, blah, blah" keep in mind who wrote the story.

I'm sure Oliva talking about Superman having to fight someone in a mech, not traveling in the shadows.

This movie could either be a fail or a masterpiece.
From what I saw, it looks freakin brilliant.

Chris Reeve FTW! But ready for a new epic MOS film with the Cavill/Snyder connection. On another note, anyone ever notice all the similarities between Jesus and Superman? One had disciples and the other had a justice league. Both fathers sent their only begotten son to earth to save all of humanity. They both could be considered "gods" to normal humans. One has Mary by his side and the other has Lois. I don't think Supes can turn water into wine tho..

@Superguy I read DKR. I know how it's set up. And I wanted to understand if she meant he'll hide like he did in DKR.

@Dio you had that dream too!?!?!?!?!?!?!? WOAH *Keanu voice*
