6:21 just a heads up I don’t think this will be the final logo I think like with man of steel it would be a little too dumb for the house of el symbol to be an exact arial S so I think THIS is the symbol on the suit he found in the FOS people went “it looks like an s let’s call him superman” But by the end of this movie this suit will be damaged and after a pep talk from Marth.. I mean Ma Kent she will give him a hand made suit and that will have the more classic cheesy S symbol on it

Compromise. The suit is made of a sci-fi material that came with the space pod, and Martha used that material to make him the suit.

That's why I like versions like the CW where the cape is a blanket he was sent to earth with and the main costume is made on earth. It gives him that connection to krypton and an explanation for why his costume isn't destroyed, cuz he just blocks with the cape, but he can still have the homemade suit

​@@samuelterry6354 Being positive/cheerful and being "happy all the time" are two completely different things. He should ALWAYS be positive. Even when things are the absolute worst they could ever be, it's his job to be hopeful, to lift others up from despair. When he's being superman, he should always be cheerful when dealing with other people, and be stern when he's dealing with threats but not angry or emo. When he's not performing superman though, that's when he can really show the full range of emotions. It's superman's job to inspire people, it's clark kent's job to feel how he feels

"[the trunks] look too silly/campy" good, I like it when movies are fun to watch.

[@thegingerbreadmanX09]

I think that Grant Morrison explained Superman’s suit well. He compared it to “a patriotic Scotsman wearing a kilt,” and that’s honestly a pretty great analogy for it. Who gives a shit if it looks “ridiculous” or “stupid,” it’s the clothes of his people. I imagine the Superman uniform is just something that people would wear on Krypton, similar to (circling back to Grant Morrison) how Scotsmen used to wear kilts as normal clothes. Sorry for the long comment but I really like the trunks, and that argument has actually convinced a few trunkphobes (patent pending) to switch sides.

[@deemurdock_]

I agree, I feel it should be the symbol of the house of El, like a family crest. That’s why I really appreciate and love the way they introduce the suit in Man Of Steel. I like the small detail of the Kryptonian writing in the middle of the crest that flows with the logo.

[@lPHOENIXZEROl]

Wanting Pa Kent alive is one of the things I'm hoping for, we haven't had that in live action since Lois and Clark and it would just be nice to have it again.

[@StareachValcin]

The common misconception of Jonathan Kent, which I felt started because of the 1st Christopher Reeve Superman movie, is that people think that Jonathan Kent's death is what leads Clark Kent to being Superman. Jonathan Kent's death has nothing to do with Clark becoming Superman. Jonathan Kent has even lived long enough for Clark to have a career as Superman in the comics. Jonathan Kent's death is just a trope that only serves the purpose of showing that Clark can't save everyone. It isn't necessary for Clark's journey to being Superman, and I honestly hope that Jonathan Kent doesn't have to die in this latest iteration of Superman.

[@legofan370]

The ONE thing I wanna see in a god damn Superman movie, considering Gunn's musical tastes across GotG and Peacemaker, I wanna see Superman be a fucking Metallica fan. It is from the comics (Superboy #83 from 2001 to be exact) and it would be so great to see! I would love to see Supes blasting The Unforgiven (considering the themes of losing a parent in that song also helps for Superman as a character if Pa does die in the film). I think it would also help on a more serious note. It would help build this version of Superman and help it stand on its own two feet since we haven't gotten that it in an adaptation yet. As well as breaking the mold of what people think of metalheads. Metalheads are some of the nicest, compassionate, and wonderful people to talk to yet society views them as vagrants, degenerates, and violent. So I think it could also help that Superman, the Beacon of Hope, a man who just wants to see the world a bit better because he believes it can be, a caring, nice, and compassionate guy, likes this hard and rough music genre could maybe help sway public opinion. But that's just a dream. And we all know, dreams save us.

About Pa Kent, I wish we had a live action established version of Superman where Johnathan is given time to live, to see his son be the hero and good man he raised, if only we actually got that, and we had BEAUTIFUL, EMOTIONAL scenes of Clark and his Earth father exchanging dialogue, some pep talk, Jon mentoring his son and giving him advice on balancing Clark's hero life and Daily Planet life.. I wish we had that, because it is likely that he'll already be dead (again, but hopefully not cuz C'mon!!!), it's quite a missed opportunity, but regardless, I still look forward to SUPERMAN 2025.

The biggest thing I want from Superman is for Clark to simply have his life back. His personality, not just a bumbling disguise, Lois, Jimmy, Perry, The Planet actually being characters we care for.

Two things that I want from the Superman movie. One to be action packed. We need a reminder of why Superman's first outing was titled Action Comics#1 in the first place. Number 2 make Superman human again. Been saying this a million times. The key to making Superman work is to keep him the way he's always been, the adorkable Boy Scout. What makes Superman iconic is that even tho he's not one of us he lives the way most humans do. He loves street food, he jams out to human music, when he's not saving the world he's working a 9-5 desk job. Clark is Just as human as the rest of us. Only difference is he's got Superpowers.

[@kerry-j4m]

Man of Steel was very action packed,loved it. I liked how MOS showed Supes being an alien pretending to be a human,hiding in plain sight.Until Zod made him reveal himself.This new film has too many guest-shots ( IMHO ) at least Man of Steel was all about-SUPES-and no one else. This new Superman film has it's work cut out for it,it has to appease the Superman hard-core fans ( the ones stuck on a SUPES film from 1978 and won't let go of it-LOL ) then the other Superman fans who just want a GOOD movie. Then there's the casual fans ( who also want a good movie,but,haven't been getting good super-hero films ) like I said-GOOD-LUCK. LOL.

[@francofernandes2006]

You know what I want? No attempt at realism. No vapid, trending stuff. No "deconstruction". No generic, pre-chewed action movie that could star any hero. Just a Superman movie. Play it to me straight. Give me Superman doing Superman stuff. It doesn't even need to go that deep, or that complex, just needs to have solid themes, good characters, an engaging story, and awesome fight scenes. Don't try to act like you're smarter than the character, or that he needs to be updated, or changed to fit into worldviews, markets or anything.

David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Skyler Gisondo, and many other castings are all perfect and may give us some of the best takes on these iconic characters. I especially hope this movie really explores Clark's life not just as Superman but also his work life at the Daily Planet and his supporting cast of characters while also exploring Metropolis and making the city truly feel like a City of Tomorrow and how Metropolis is as much of a character as Superman is, similar to how vital of a character Gotham City is to Batman. I also hope this movie allows us to explore Superman's mythos, Fortress of Solitude and especially his incredibly underrated Rogues Gallery of supervillains other than constantly using Lex, Zod or Doomsday (even though I am okay with Lex being in the movie).

Something I hope to see in the new Superman film is the use of new villains. I think Superman's rogues gallery is very underrated when comes to films. Outside from Lex and Zod none of his rogues ever got the chance to appear in a live action despite their potential. I would love to see Superman fighting someone like Parasite, Metallo, Brainiac, Livewire or maybe Mr Mxyzptlk. As for Luthor, in this first film at least, he could work as secondary antagonist, seeking to save the city like Superman, but using the wrong methods. For exemple: If the movie is about Superman trying to stop Parasite, it could have him discover that he's not evil but just a victim of accident that turned him into a power-addict monster. While Superman tries to cure Parasite, Lex just demonize the creature in the media and tries to kill him in order to gain fame as "The man who saved Metropolis from the Parasite".

[@ProjektTaku]

Superman has such a fascinating rogues gallery. I would love to see some obscure ones like Riot, who's insane and can duplicate himself, or Conduit, a friend from Smallville who was always jealous of Clark beating him in anything and became an assassin.

[@alexandrefrauches132]

@@ProjektTaku That would be awesome. Besides them, another obscure villain I would love to see being use is Master Jailer. Much like Conduit, he's also Clark's friend from Smallville, but his driven by his obsession for Lana Lang (he's basically Superman's Mad Hatter). His presence in the film would be a good justification to bring Lana Lang to the story and the plot explore her relationship with Clark in the past, since it's really important part of Superman's origin, showing how Clark decision to leave Smallville had consequences and lead to the break up of their relationship

People: “Superman is too much of a Basic Big Blue Boy Scout” Also people: “Screw the red trunks, too silly!” WHAT DO YOU WANT

[@ineedpowers5151]

Never ever try to satisfy people! You will only find disappointment

[@KobytheHero]

I first found this channel from a Superman video, and I stuck around because I liked the vibes. Excited to have so much Superman content in the coming years!

[@tofufutofu]

Watching this video has hyped me up so much for the Superman movie and I really hope most of what you said happens! And I also agree with the trunks argument, it really does add a nice contrast to all the blue and overall balances and ties the whole suit together.

[@toonblade4231]

Agreed with all points here. Also, congrats on the 100K subs! Glad to help with that. Still waiting on that Green Arrow video, btw.

[@suto5704]

I'm also still hoping for a Green Arrow pre write

[@paulik-nagysolyom3424]

I love how he got all the things that the suit actually has

[@nanazarkua8345]

[@georgepitcher136]

They didn't give Routh contacts to match Christopher Reeve. They gave him contacts to honor the source material because Superman in the comics has unearthly blue eyes. It's long established comic canon. The glasses help to filter to color to make it less noticeable.

[@fakehappyfilms]

Cinematic Universes are annoying. Easy fix? ACTUAL SOLO MOVIES. then just have a justice league movie or whatever where they all come together. you shouldnt have to see the last batman movie to understand the next aquaman movie

[@aaronmoyer4722]

All of them should be able to stand alone but also have ties in to other movies if people are watching the whole universe. Sort of a both/and situation

[@fakehappyfilms]

only way i can see that working is for references. we can't have something huge happen in a superman movie that impacts the entire universe@@aaronmoyer4722

[@dantan1249]

Exactly. A movie is good or it’s not good. Not having everything constantly referenced and set up is not gonna hurt a team up movie when the time comes. It limits the individual movies.

[@astupidomen1916]

Loved the ideas with metropolis

[@Cold_fingers]

14:20 „they’re spread out across the world“ Proceeds to only show America.

[@MisterPrince01]

Agreed with everything you said in this video. Especially about Gunn's movies and what makes Superman Superman. Absolutely hyped for this movie.

[@miggymatanguihan2181]

You mentioned you’d wanna see Superman have a personality, so I’d love to see his sense of humor from the comics, the pranks he pulls sometimes Also Michael Rooker as Bibbo, make it happen AND PLEASE MAKE THE TEEN TITANS PITCH NEXT now that they announced a movie

[@officialasim6772]

i just said the same thing too! I want to hear his opinions on the Teen titans movie, also I REALLLY hope they use the 2003 titans show lineup. point blank period

[@rodrigobertini8257]

Two things: 1 - Michael Rosenbaum is easily the best Lex in live-action, and I actually doubt he'll be surpassed. 2 - About the Daily Planet, I'd love if newspapers were still a thing. Like, this DC world being a retrofuturistic place, that Lois Lane, a reporter, could actually be essentially the most important person on the whole planet, simply for how great she is at being a writer. It would not only be nostalgic for when that was true in our world, but set it up as its own modern world. Gunn keeps comparing this DC Universe to Westeros or Star Wars, that unlike Marvel, DC is its own world, not ours. This choice of a retrofuturism would be terrific for visually stating this idea.

[@psi_mae]

When I think of the title of “Superman” I think of Superman: Up in the Sky and that final powerful line “You’re Superman”

[@_Shae__]

i really love your point on The Daily Planet and the overall importance of journalism for not only Superman but superheroes in general. literally, my favorite comic book character is Ben Urich

[@nanazarkua8345]

Here Is What I Want For Superman 2025 1)Lex Luthor Not Being The Only Villain With Him As An Overarching Villain With Parasite, Metallo, Toyman, Bizarro, Ultra-Humanite Or Mongul As The Main Villain/Final Boss

[@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868]

for a second I thought you were gonna say "and" instead of "or" at the end of all those villains

[@davidchittick6783]

I thought Brainiac is gonna be the main antagonist in Superman...

[@Frogman1212]

I just want a game so bad.... I've been wandering in a desert since 2015, waiting for it.....

[@DavidRYates-tk2tq]

The number 1 thing I want from this movie is for Superman to NOT EVER snap anyone's neck or kill anyone in any way.

[@BooboosANDBloodshed_95]

I'm so stoked that panels to pixels recommended you on their most recent video. As a new subscriber I got to say your content is awesome bro. Keep up the good work the comic book community appreciates you.

[@PhantoRoyce]

8:33 Fun fact is that there used to be a rule in the Superman character Bible that if he was not wearing his suit/trunks he COULD NOT fly. The saying was called “no tights,no flights*

[@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868]

That's not what the "no tights, no flights" rule meant. It was a rule specifically made for smallville that said their version of superman would never suit up in the classic blue and red, and he would never fly, hence "no tights, no flights"

[@PhantoRoyce]

@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 oh really? My mistake then

[@miguelfmyers]

Definitely want the title cards, and camera movement similar to the suicide sqauds. Just rewatched it and love it more and more every time.

[@cutevillain3366]

James Gunn revealed the suit yesterday and it’s everything Troy said he didn’t want in a Superman suit. The second I saw it I thought of this video.

[@troyoboyo17]

I got the trunks but at what cost (It's not bad it's honestly just the high collar I actively don't like but I'll get over it)

[@hugoalvarez8307]

​@@troyoboyo17 I usually don't like the collar, but I think it works here. It seems smaller than in other desins and they got rid of the red line on the top. I think it looks all right

[@BillyBobJoe14]

From the set photos I would love for the Reeve theme slowly morph into its own theme as he becomes his own hero idk

[@will.n5394]

Up in the sky it’s a bird !, it’s a plane ! ,no it’s Troy posting another great video !!!

[@mr.master2017]

This was an incredible video, love seeing love for Clark and Lois and co

[@TheSaharay1]

There is a primary photography picture floating around with the suit shown off, and the trunks are there!

[@batsaubattler3200]

I'm so happy for hoult his casting has already made me excited for what they'll do

[@Chiken971]

Poor jimmy Olson he’s been shot twice in both the dc animated universe AND the DCEU

[@boywonder1940]

Bro is spitting Facts!!!

[@mouthshovel]

Honestly my biggest hope for this movie is to have the "doomed planet, desperate scientists, last hope, kindly couple" opening

[@colealbinder2025]

As much as Pa Kent’s passing has a place in the Superman’s mythos, would honestly prefer if he and Ma were still alive in the DCU, it would be a nice change of pace for once. It’s not some thing that’s absolutely necessary per se, and Superman can still be an effective character in spite of it.

[@RandomJD]

The main thing I'm mostly scared is that James might be using a mix of "Superman and the Authority" With all the characters being cramed in the movie, "Kingdome Come" with the way superheroes changed for the worst and a calling for classic superheroes and some all star superman just to be sure. I like James Gunn style to make movies, but I can't stop the feeling that he will make another "we are a broken family" trope that he made in all his superheroes movies. I LIKE IT, it's just that I feel superman need something more... I am hyped, sorry

[@puzzlingparadox12]

This video is funny cus james gunn has checked all the boxes please make a reaction to this with all the info we know

[@3wheelyboy]

7:45 "I hope they don't do a high collar"...

[@M.J.733]

"I hope they don't have mcu lines everywhere"

[@erkscollectibles]

Excellent list, I couldn't agree more! I'm also really hoping Gunn makes this movie distinct, and it doesn't constantly reference or pay homage to Superman '78.

[@lightningmr_dt]

I think my perfect version and interpretation of superman is from a recent Christmas story All you need to know for context is evil Christmas spirits attack (including krampus) and Santa asks batman for help because he trained him (anyone who likes lighter conversations between Batman and the bat family read this it was so fun to see Damian and nightwings reaction to santa ) but superman finds out batman knows santa (likely due to his hearing) and immediately flies himself directly to batman and his face is just perfect ( the perfect mix of jealousy, pouting and disappointment in bruce) the idea that Clark still believes in santa and never found him in so many years and santa knows what Clark wanted (specifically a gift for his parents) (and that Clark writes every year to santa) is exactly superman to me (he is so good natured that the idea that santa can't exist is unbelievable and no matter what people would say clark would nod and still believe in santa and never once waver) I love a childish clark when it's done well If this Christmas story couldn't be done with your superman you better have a good reason or it's a what if scenario (i genuinely belive if santa appeared in injustice and told Clark he was wrong he would stop immediately knowing he disappointed santa)

[@averynormalacount2887]

The one thing I want in this movie is to honestly make me cry.. but in a good heartwarming way. Like at the end of gaurdians of the galaxy 3..

[@CarlosMartinez-gs6jz]

He asked for no lines and collar on the costume, who’s gonna tell bro

[@jakefisher3328]

I still don't know why these studios aren't mining people like you and Nando and other storytellers to try and make better....stories. 🤷‍♂️ You've always got a fresh take and I appreciate it even if its not a story I agree with.

[@The_Presbyterian]

tbh clark kent feels more what superman wants to be inside and superman helps him do more good stuff
