Actually DIDN'T have to see the commercial first, which was cool. But i've had confidence in this piece since inception, from what i've seen and read and watched, this is sure to be (hopefully) one of the much better displays of an adaptation in the coming years. I have some reservations being a fan, and not wanting to see somethings changed, but I am aware, that from paper to film is a difficult transition and not everything can be done on film as in a comic book. Some things just don't work out correctly no matter how true to form you stay. So, I hope whatever changes Snyder has made, come off as belonging in the story as much as the original, and they don't seem forced. I am looking for things that are seemless, and will please both fans, and non-fans alike in terms of visual, emotional, and intellecual stimulation.

I have full faith in Synder to pull this of. All of the footage I have seen about this film has just been dead on. The attention to detail is fantastic. The special effects on Dr.M is awesome. I don't think anyone could have done better. But then again I haven't seen the film yet so, I will hold my tongue till then.

lol, Snyder is proud because he draws his own storyboards? sure he copies them from the comic or the movie he is adapting (I can picture him with a bundle of tracing paper and pencil). Sorry, but I just find that hillarious. Otherwise nothing new to say about this new bit of info, that I haven't said before.

Well then Noob, you should be extatic to know that he's copying the comicbook pages to make the story boards. The mear fact that you snear at this tid-bit proves that you are programmed from the beginning to hate this movie no matter how much is actually copied from the original. It's an adaptation, it's not only his right as the director to copy the original but also his mandate! So on the previous board (now in the CBM archives) you state the fact that changes are being wrongfully made and now you snear at Snyder's efforts to keep most of the original work in the picture. It's as if Snyder himself has heard your comments and said "this Noob guy is right, i'm gonna use more of the original masterpiece" and still you're not happy. And you dare call me biased?
