“This is why we wrapped on Superman a year before release and why they’ve been hard at work on many shots for months before that,” Gunn posted on Threads on August 18. “This is why we start heartily editing during the shoot. It’s why I prepare so vigorously and why we only shoot finished screenplays. And Supergirl, which I’m not directing, is being handled the same way. I can’t praise the VFX artists that help us create magic enough.” “If you do some research you’ll see my films have always taken a different approach and I’ve always given my VFX artist-collaborators time to do their jobs properly, and the respect they deserve,” Gunn wrote over the weekend. “And the quality of the VFX in those films is uniformly great because of it (and because my friends at Weta and Framestore and ILM and more are amazingly talented).”

@@Superfitcosplay, I disagree, I don't think it's a good thing. I think it proves what I've been saying all along. I believe this is somewhat of a scam in a way. A tax right off so they don't lose the rights to these characters. They haven't had a solo Superman film in a long time (2013). If they don't make a film they could lose the rights. They don't actually have to even release the film to keep the rights as long as contracts are signed or renegotiated. This type of thing is not common but it has happened before. They make a cheap film and don't release it and write it off on taxes to get a bunch of money and keep the rights by resigning. Definitely explains the cheap suits and early wrap up if filming.

Practical practical practical! Go back to the basics. Use harnesses, and use the camera creatively. I dont need to see a CGI fest of Superman zipping by, obviously CGI. When Christopher Reeve floated down onto Margot Kidder’s high rise patio, it was slow and graceful. And then instead of taking off like a bolt of lightning, he drifts into the sky, his cape fluttering in the wind. THAT is what I want to see. Let us take in Superman. Let us see him fly. Yes, he’s faster than a speeding bullet, but remember, you can put the camera in front of him, and put a background rushing behind him, his fists facing us. A more traditional approach.

I believe I read somewhere that James Gunn is not going to do any reshoots whatsoever, and what he has done is locked in and kept the same. Which is actually pretty good in my opinion, because reshoots are where things in movies tend to be kind of iffy. But it was actually a great choice to have this Superman movie production wrapped early, because if James Gunn and his VFX team is focusing on visuals and special effects, then he may actually make "Super" (no pun intended lol) great quality effects. I think he kind of learned that it's quality over quantity. Which is a great thing or idea for movie making, in my opinion.

Aside from the original Chris Reeve epic, none of the other new films really captured the flying in a majestic and awesome way. Superman Returns had some great shots but the reliance on digital doubles and some pretty lame flying shots, for me, didnt capture the majestic quality STM gave us, regardless of now dated techniques. Man of Steel, again with some iconic shots , gave us flying that was virtually like a speeding bullet in most shots. I watched part 4 of Hulk vs Superman the other day. A low rez 3d animation that showed some very cool camera moves and flying scenes. I want to believe a man can fly like I felt when I first saw STM. Of all the characters brought to the screen, Superman is the one character you need to focus on for his flying. That scene in STM when he drops Lois off on the roof of the Daily Planet and she asks who are you, and he replies, ''A Friend'' and gracefully flies off. NO compositing, no green green. Imagine if he took of like Snyders Superman ? I just pray to the FX gods and the creative team that they again, make us believe a man can fly.

I’m sorry but I have absolutely no faith in this movie… for me he wrapped it early cause he want’s to see his movie come out. Which is complicate these recent times with Warner. I mean… the stock was 77 dollars with ZSJL… it’s now 7 dollars… even the Batman 2 project seems in a difficult place… People don’t understand the difference when Gunn was in Marvel with Kevin Feige breathing down his neck but with a lot of money to make a lot sets, suits and vfx… And when he arrived at Warner with The Suicide Squad where we can all see how cheap he had to work with and how free his “pipi/poop/fart” jokes can be unleashed when unsupervised… I hope I’m wrong but I really don’t think so.
