Zack Snyder's Man of Steel to begin filming next week?!! AND Goyer STILL involved?!!

@nailbiter111- Thanks man! Not sure again if this is old or not. It could be though. I couldn't find this posted anywhere else on CBM but I could be wrong.

;D

But I hope this is right, IF the film begins shooting earlier than originally stated...then it means that all the rumors of "messes" with scripts and stuff could be incorrect and we could be seeing the film getting out sooner than expected or right on time! Either way it's cool.

feels right to me. the cast is great. i have a really good feeling about this

@KALel3412- Yeah, the cast is filled with all A-list stars and academy award winners. I don't know what else could go wrong. With Snyder doing visuals and Goyer + Johnstad both working on the script, I think this film has a good chance of being the #1 film of 2012!

@JDUKE- Yeah man but this is good news here too. I mean, at least we now know that Goyer isn't completely gone from MOS! That is wonderful and the film will begin shooting sooner than expected this means we could be seeing the suit maybe this coming week!

@JDUKE- I understand the frustration dude, trust me i do man. Don't worry though. Cavill will be so buffed he'll be able to flick away all the upcoming 2012 superheroes.

Last we saw pictures of him, he was already really buff. He looked about buffer than Evans...and much buffer than Christian Bale was in 'Batman Begins'

So with all the extra time he had to work out and fight-train...no doubt in my mind he'll be really buff and in total Superman-shape to kick some serious ASS in "Man of Steel"

=D

cavil will be at comic con on thursday.
we get to see how big he has got.

yep

"Stars Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, Luke Evans, Kellan Lutz will participate in this panel alongside producers Gianni Nunnari and Mark Canton and director Tarsem Singh. Hall H"

Can't wait to see this movie next year. Seeing the great writing from Goyer to be transplanted on screen will be worth paying every cent to see this movie. Also seeing Superman fight is something everyone wants to see.

man i gotta go to SDCC next year!!

T4P!

I've also got amazingly good vibes about this movie. Everything just seems so perfect to me now. The cast is flawless, couldn't ask for better. Cavill as Supes, Adams as Lois, Lane and Costner as the Kents and Russell motha-[frick]ing Crowe as JOR-EL?! It's insane how good the cast is. My friends agree and I think the critics and public will agree as well. Synder's going to make sure we have some fantastic visuals, he's great with bringing comics to life. The only thing I'm not sure about is the script but I'm optimistic that it's in good hands.

I reeeaaalllyyy want this movie to kick ass. It doesn't have to be the best CBM of the year nor the highest grossing but it has to be amazing. Probably my most anticipated, just slightly above The Avengers for me.

Sweet! Thanks for the info LP!

@SugarYumYum- THANK YOU, jeezus you're one of the few on this site who is actually more excited to see this film than the Avengers film.

:)

Ask any of my friends, when they shout "The Dark Knight Rises!" or "The Avengers!" or "The Amazing Spider-Man!" I'm always the one shouting "MAN OF STEEL!" Most anticipated movie of 2012 (Right next to The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and The Dark Knight Rises. I think I'm one of the few on this site that couldn't really care less if The Avengers is good or not. It's exciting it's actually happening, but beyond that, meh)

This is a great find, LP4. Johnstad is a GREAT action writer and Goyer is a great thriller writer (well, at least, he's good at coming up with thriller stories that people later script).

And Snyder's visual talent (Plus awesome slow motion - hopefully he puts it in there)....

Man Of Steel will be the best.

@Mega - Most certainly, man of steel is the sleeper for next year.

@MegaMattMOS- You are not alone my friend. I too could care LESS if the Avengers are great as a film or not. I was never a real fan of theirs.

So to me it doesn't matter either which way.

"Man of Steel" is unique compared to those other 3 biggies of 2012 for a very good reason.

Dark Knight Rises will be exciting and thrilling (after Superman I am def a big Batman-fan) but it's the end of a trilogy and we've had so much of Nolan's Batman that it's still fresh from 2008.

Avengers isn't all that thrilling because we already had individual films for each them. Yeah i get this will be their first-ever team-up but still...snoooooore

Amazing Spider-Man will be cool and I'm sure to love the film (after Superman and Batman, Spidey is my #3 hero)

But we just came off from all the Tobey films- an entire trilogy.

So another Spider-Man flick seems...meh at this point.

But the thing with Man of Steel is- Aside from Superman Returns, we haven't had a Superman film for the past 20 or so years and many on this site weren't even born when the Reeve stuff was in theaters. And of course Superman Returns def was NOT the Superman film fans have waited 20 years for, yeah maybe it was for some...but generally speaking it was a major let-down. My point is- Batman already had 2 really good recent films- begins and tdk, spidey already had 2 really good recent films- spidey 1 and 2. Avengers had their individual good films- IM and Thor and soon Cap.

MOS will be something though that is completely different and new for a NEW generation of fans. I think that's what makes this project so exotic compared to the other 3 well that and the fact that they got both Chris Nolan AND Zack Snyder to team up for it, just makes it THAT much cooler!

Oh and thanks for the kudos MegaMattMOS!

so has anyone seen what Cavill is looking like now? is he still tiny? am i still going to wish he would have cast Manganiello?
