Zack Snyder, Optimist

Yesterday, the New York Times profiled Zack Snyder and Man of Steel , his forthcoming Superman film. The whole thing is worth reading; I want to hone in on one point Snyder makes: Mr. Snyder recognized that “Man of Steel” did not fit neatly into his oeuvre of stylized B-movies like his “Dawn of the Dead” remake and “300,” a retelling of the battle of Thermopylae, but he said he saw overarching connections. “I feel like my movies have always been very subversive, even when people haven’t perceived how subversive they really are,” he said confidently. “For me, what’s subversive about Superman is that it’s not subversive.” I find this comment interesting, if only because I’ve recently been thinking about how perfectly the idea of Superman fits into the worldview of Snyder’s oeuvre. He is, in his own weird way, a filmmaker who is relentlessly optimistic about the human condition. Consider his remake of Dawn of the Dead . In George Romero’s original, the film’s protagonists are holed up in a mall; as the film progresses the group splinters, torn by jealousy and resentment, before being overrun by a marauding band of looters who break in and flood the shopping center with zombies. In Snyder’s film, the opposite happens: the group in the mall pulls together and the mall is only overrun when they make an attempt to rescue a man stranded in a building across the street who has no food. Yes, everything goes wrong and many people die—but it ...

Zack Snyder talks his approach to Superman

With Man Of Steel looming on the horizon, Zack Snyder has been talking about what sets his version of Superman apart from those that have gone before. Speaking in reference to the way the character has been tweaked and jazzed-up in the likes of Smallville and some of the more recent DC comics, Snyder suggests that any attempt to reinvent Superman is totally missing the point. “When they try to dress him up… put him in jeans and a t-shirt or a leather jacket with an S on it, I go, ‘What? Guys, it’s okay. It’s Superman. He’s the king daddy. You should all be bowing down to him.’ “He’s a really cool mythological contradiction… he’s incredibly familiar Americana and alien, exotic, bizarroland, but beautifully woven together…All of us, in a weird way, are that same kind of contradiction — no one’s that simple.” You certainly get the impression that for Snyder, the criticisms that are occasionally levelled at the character – too bland, too conventionally “good” – are the things that set him apart. ““I feel like my movies have always been very subversive,” says the director, “even when people haven’t perceived how subversive they really are. For me, what’s subversive about Superman is that it’s not subversive.” Co-starring Henry Cavill, Michael Shannon, Amy Adams and Russell Crowe, Man Of Steel opens in the UK on 14 June 2013. ...

Zack Snyder, Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer talk Man of Steel

Coinciding with the release of today's rather splendid action-packed fourth theatrical trailer for Man of Steel , The New York Times has posted an article featuring interviews with director Zack Snyder ( Watchmen ), producer Christopher Nolan ( The Dark Knight Rises ) and screenwriter David S. Goyer ( Batman Begins ), as the trio discuss how they intend to make 'The World's Greatest Superhero' relevant for the 21st century. "When they try to dress [Superman] up, put him in jeans and a T-shirt or a leather jacket with an S on it, I go: ‘What? Guys, it’s O.K. It’s Superman. He’s the king daddy. You should all be bowing down to him,'" states Snyder. "He’s a really cool mythological contradiction. He’s incredibly familiar Americana and alien, exotic, bizarroland, but beautifully woven together. All of us, in a weird way, are that same kind of contradiction — no one’s that simple. If you follow him back logically and try to understand him you end up at a sci-fi solution." "If he really were an alien when the world finds out that he exists, that in itself would be the biggest event in human history. That would change the world forever," said Goyer, referring to the emphasis on Superman's status as an extra-terrestrial, before going on to explain how his own experiences have helped to shape his approach to the script: "There’s a scene in the movie where a younger Clark basically says to Jonathan Kent, ‘Why do I have to listen you? You’ ...

ultralaser : redcloud : fancycwabs : Why is Superman’s cape fluttering in the vacuum of space? Superfarts. mythbusters covered this when they tried to fake the moon landing. the theory was that the flag shouldn’t have flapped while it was being planted bc no wind. they put a flag in a vacuum chamber and it moved //more// in vacuum, bc there was no air pressure to hold it in place. so every movement of clark’s shoulders which in atmosphere would result in a fractional shift would.be exxagperated in space.

In this behind the scenes video for the upcoming Man of Steel , the director, Zack Snyder sits down and shares some of his thoughts about Superman and the film. We also hear from the stars of the film, Henry Cavill (the Superman himself) and Amy Adams (Lois Lane) along with the producers and many of the big name costars. We also get a bit more about how the film looks into Superman’s origin and his presence as an alien on Earth. Interestingly, Snyder begins by telling us that Superman is “the most powerful, but also the must vulnerable superhero.” Seriously? I guess he’s never heard of Aquaman or Zan of the Wonder Twins. Man of Steel hits the theaters on June 14. Link ...

We all knew that Warner Bros. would be partnering with any and everyone on the marketing for MAN OF STEEL, but I didn’t expect Wal-Mart to be one of the primary partners. But the superstore giant has money to burn and so the next time you’re at Wal-Mart picking up some toiletries or perhaps trying to find something to do in the middle of the night, you’ll see plenty of MAN OF STEEL merchandise. And one of the things you’ll be able to find is exclusive movie tickets to advance screenings. Yep, Wal-Mart is apparently in the movie ticket business now, so there’s that. To help get the message out, Wal-Mart has released a two minute featurette about MAN OF STEEL, featuring Henry Cavill , Zack Snyder and plenty of others (no Christopher Nolan, sorry) discussing Clark Kent and Superman and what he means to the world. I understand where they’re going, but I’m already getting sick of the deeper meaning Snyder and others are trying to jam down our throats with superman. Along with a new featurette, we have a couple of new banners for you, featuring Henry Cavill as Superman facing off against Michael Shannon’s General Zod. MAN OF STEEL stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Ayelet Zurer, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Antje Traue, Christopher Meloni and Laurence Fishburne.

We’re officially one month out from Zack Snyder’s highly anticipated Superman reboot hitting the big screen, and all we’ve seen over the past year has Man of Steel in a very strong position to be the best movie of the year. Warner Bros. have recently been gearing up their promotional campaign for the blockbuster ahead of its release next month. And following a number of recent TV spots , they’ve debuted another thirty-second spot giving us an awesome new look at Snyder’s upcoming movie. *SPOILER ALERT* The spot below includes what looks to be a not-entirely-insignificant glimpse at a scene from the movie, so you may want to look away now. In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry Cavill) is a young twenty-something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone’s imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question – Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Diane Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as “Superman,” not only to shine as the world’s last beacon of hope b ...
