Man Of Steel Gets A New Trailer – The fate of our planet rests in Henry Cavill’s hands

May 22, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


While early trailers for Man Of Steel were all moody and contemplative, thing have gotten ever more action-packed and explosive as we’ve neared the released, until we get to this new trailer, which is essentially 105 seconds of gargantuan special effects.

It looks pretty cool though.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth.  As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do.  But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.

‘The film also stars four-time Oscar® nominee Amy Adams (“The Master”) as Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane, and Oscar® nominee Laurence Fishburne (“What’s Love Got to Do with It”) as her editor-in-chief, Perry White.  Starring as Clark Kent’s adoptive parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, are Oscar® nominee Diane Lane (“Unfaithful”) and Academy Award® winner Kevin Costner (“Dances with Wolves”).

‘Squaring off against the superhero are two other surviving Kryptonians, the villainous General Zod, played by Oscar® nominee Michael Shannon (“Revolutionary Road”), and Faora, Zod’s evil partner, played by Antje Traue (upcoming “The Seventh Son”).  Also from Superman’s native Krypton are Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s mother, played by Ayelet Zurer (“Angels and Demons”), and Superman’s father, Jor-El, portrayed by Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe (“Gladiator”).’

Henry Cavill, Russell Crowe & Michael Shannon Get Man Of Steel Character Posters

May 21, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

man-of-steel-superman-poster-slideIt’s less than a month now until Man Of Steel hits cinemas on June 14th, and so to get us familiar with the main characters in the movie, character posters of the film’s main Kryptonians – Superman (Henry Cavill), his dad Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and Zod (Michael Shannon).

Man Of Steel follows Clark Kent as a young man who has to deal with the fact he’s constantly having to hide who he is, and that by losing control he could cause major damage or even kill someone. However after he journeys to find out more about who he is and where he came from, his heroic side must emerge when General Zod arrives on Earth.

Amy Adams, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne, Antje Traue, Ayelet Zurer, Christopher Meloni, Russell Crowe, Michael Kelly, Harry Lennix and Richard Schiff also star.

Henry Cavill Looks Hot In Two New Man Of Steel Posters

May 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

man-of-steel-promo-pic1
Over the weekend, two new posters and a rather iconic image of Henry Cavill in Man Of Steel have been released. Indeed, it’s quite interesting that while early marketing concentrated on how different the film is to earlier takes on Superman, more recently they’ve been making it looking far more classic.

There’s also a new poster for Pacific Rim, showing off New Zealand’s jaeger (giant robot), Kaiju Crush. While it looks like it’s destroying a city, we presume Crush is actually helping to protect it from a monster that’s crawled out of the Pacific.

Man Of Steel hits cinemas June 14th, with Pacific Rim coming July 12th. Click on the pics below for larger versions.

New The World’s End Poster, Man Of Steel Banner & Pacific Rim Promo Pic

May 7, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

worlds-end-teaser-poster3A few new pics have surfaced for some much anticipated upcoming movies, including a great new quad poster for the Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright movie, The World’s End, a soaring banner for Man Of Steel and a pic showing off Charlie Hunnam in Pacific Rim.

Pegg and Frost are joined by the likes of Martin Freeman, Eddie Marsan and Paddy Considine in The World’s End. Here’s the synopsis: ’20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hell bent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by mate Gary King (Pegg), a 40-year old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their home town and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub, The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realize the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.’ The film’s out in the UK on July 19th.

Man Of Steel is out June 14th, and sees Henry Cavill stepping into Clark Kent’s shoes and dealing with the fact he’s the most powerful man on the planet, but has to hide that fact. That’s particularly tested when General Zod (Michael Shannon) arrives on Earth.

Pacific Rim meanwhile is Guillermo Del Toro’s movie about monsters spilling out of the Pacific and humanity fighting back by building enormous human-piloted robots. Charlie Hunnam plays one of those pilots, Raleigh Drake. It’s out July 12th.

New Man Of Steel Banner Arrives With Henry Cavill Looking Wistful

May 6, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

man-of-steel-bannerIt’s getting to the point now where I don’t care whether Man Of Steel is a silent movie, as long as it has Henry Cavill running around for two hours looking hot. However I still have hope that it’ll actually be a good movie in its own right when it arrives in cinemas on June 14th.

The latest things to help get us excited/swooning, is a banner poster, which you can see above. It features Cavill as Superman, floating above the Earth and looking a little moody.

Zack Snyder directs the movie.

New Posters For Man Of Steel & Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac

May 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Man-of-Steel-Poster2
The final poster for Man Of Steel poster has landed, as well as the very first teaser for Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac, which you can see above and below.

Man Of Steel hits cinemas on June 14th, 2013, with Henry Cavill as Clark Kent, who has to deal with the fact he has tremendous power, which means he must spend his life knowing that if he loses control he could cause immense damage. It becomes even more pressing when General Zod arrives in Earth.

Nymphomaniac meanwhile stars Charlotte Gainsbourg, Shia LaBeouf, Stellan Skarsgard, Jamie Bell and Christian Slater, and tells the story of a self-diagnosed nymphomaniac, who recounts her adventures. Director Lars Von Trier has said he’ll cut two versions, one featuring hardcore sex for some territories, while others will get a softer version. It’s due out later this year.

New Man Of Steel Trailer – Clark Kent is getting intense & battling General Zod

April 17, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


The first trailers for Man Of Steel were certainly moody, but light on plot and action, but they’ve certainly made up for that with the latest promo, which suggests that the film will be as full of special effects and explosions as you’d expect. It’s a big blowout of a trailer, suggesting the film’s going to have a fairly serious tone, but offer a lot on the spectacle front.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures comes “Man of Steel,” starring Henry Cavill (“Immortals,” TV’s “The Tudors”) in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, under the direction of Zack Snyder (“300,” “Watchmen”).

‘A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth.  As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do.  But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.

‘The film also stars four-time Oscar® nominee Amy Adams (“The Master”) as Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane, and Oscar® nominee Laurence Fishburne (“What’s Love Got to Do with It”) as her editor-in-chief, Perry White.  Starring as Clark Kent’s adoptive parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, are Oscar® nominee Diane Lane (“Unfaithful”) and Academy Award® winner Kevin Costner (“Dances with Wolves”).

‘Squaring off against the superhero are two other surviving Kryptonians, the villainous General Zod, played by Oscar® nominee Michael Shannon (“Revolutionary Road”), and Faora, Zod’s evil partner, played by Antje Traue (upcoming “The Seventh Son”).  Also from Superman’s native Krypton are Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s mother, played by Ayelet Zurer (“Angels and Demons”), and Superman’s father, Jor-El, portrayed by Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe (“Gladiator”).’

The film’s out June 14th.

Man Of Steel TV Spot – General Zod taunts us and wants Superman to surrender

April 15, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Oh, that General Zod, he’s not a very nice man (or alien). When he was Terrence Stamp he was causing trouble and trying to get the world to bow at his feet, and it seems we’ll be having similar trouble now that he’s in the form of Michael Shannon in Man Of Steel.

During the MTV Movie Awards, a new viral video aired, which sees Zod appearing through static to taunt us and demand that Kal-el, aka Superman, surrenders himself. The vid also explain why the official website was covered in static all weekend.

The movie hits cinemas this June.

Henry Cavill Looks Hot In A New Man Of Steel Image

April 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

man-of-steel-henry-steel-promo-image3
Previous Supermans (which I presume is the correct plural) have been very good looking, but Henry Cavill may be the first to really ooze sex appeal. Indeed part of the character in earlier movies is that he’s so clean-cut and good that he’s virtually neutered. However Cavill’s Clark Kent is a bit rougher and as in the image above, a bit more of a come hither look.

The pic has been released to support Kellogg’s new US tie-in promotion where they’re promising to give away Superman’s power – not literally, just things approximating them, such as flights, fast cars and a personal trainer.

We’re also currently waiting for something to happen on the Man Of Steel website, which is currently covered in static. Many have suggested it’s part of the preparations for the launch of a new trailer (possibly coming tomorrow to tie in with the MTV Movie Awards), but we’ll have to wait and see.

Seven New Man Of Steel Images Emerge

April 11, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

man-of-steel-ew-pic2The latest issue of EW features some interesting new images from Man Of Steel, including Superman (Henry Cavill) in flight, his bio-daddy Jor-el (Russell Crowe) and the infamous Zod (Michael Shannon). There’s also Kevin Costner and Diane Lane as Clark Kent’s human parents, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Laurence Fishburne as Perry White.

The film promises a more real-world based look at Superman than earlier movies, with the trailers suggesting plenty of angst as Clark Kent tries to work out what it means to be the most powerful being on Earth.
