This suit looks like he has been in a coal mine.

They're apparently wanting a "realistic" superman so they're leaving out kryptonite. God the superman costume looks terrible. they should have gone with the body armor style from New 52 if anything. This is as bad as the Returns suit. Apparently costume designers have no imagination these days.

Nothing's as bad as the returns suit! I'd rather no briefs than tiny briefs; the Returns 2" thick S shield and "S" belt buckle were ludicrous; the tiny collar/neck opening was all wrong.
The texture on this one is a bit overdone, but at least the proportions are solid, and they seem to have put some narrative thought behind what it is and where it came from.
A lot of reports are coming in from the screenings saying that it's not nearly as dark a film as the early looks would indicate. They're apparently leaving a lot off the table for now. I'm getting used to the suit, and I'm beginning to get my hopes up for the film... Dangerous territory!

Right- I took the news as 'there's no Kryptonite in this movie'. Doesn't mean the stuff isn't still out there for the sequels.
I touched up the colors in the pic from earlier today-- on the fence as to whether I like it better.....
On the one hand it's closer to the classic colors, but on the other hand maybe I'm ready for a more sensible looking suit. Thoughts?

I'd rather have the Returns suit than this one made from a used kickball.
Look at the yellow in the S.
And either have a belt or don't. Do, or do not, there is no try. What's with the weird lines and an oval.

Im definitely going to see this movie, but I am skeptical.
I still go all the way back to An Evening With Kevin Smith when he talks about Jon Peters. Jon Peters was Executive Producer on Superman Returns and is Executive Producer on Man of Steel.

I thought Returns could have been better, but I still liked it. I expect to like Man of Steel, but something tells me both could have been better if DC had their own studio like Marvel.

Hopefully they will downplay that aspect of his origin.

You clearly haven't taken a good, up-close look at the teaser poster that's been in theaters for months, then...
Go ahead, click on it. Look at it in its full, High Definition glory! IT LOOKS LIKE CHAIN-MAIL. Even the Kryptonian "long-johns" are armor.Man of Steel Comic Con Poster (click to enlarge)

I don't like how they're handling baby Supes. Don't like the idea behind it at all.
The article is now updated at the bottom with more details. And thankfully it's not as bad as I originally thought.

Why make a Superman movie if you don't really like the character?

That's actually kind of interesting if it's true. I'm officially intrigued.
Same here. I hope they don't put some kind of agenda or something like that behind it. I don't want a political or social message with my super hero movies.

They may as well give him midichlorians, too. :facepalm
Superman's worked for 75 years... I can understand some tweaks, but... between the new suit. the '*****/Anakin'-esque twist birth story and the so-called "realistic" Batman Begins (cough)... I am losing hope what little hope I had in this flick.
