For your own convenience I added a link right here. Just click. Trailer
Now before I begin my analytical digression on the contents of this video let me state a few simple things.
Let us begin with an announcement of my own. Obviously this is my own opinion. I am bound and full knowingly going to be wrong on my conclusion. What I get out of the trailer is what I think could be a very badass scenario to redeem the name of Superman after it's atrocious past films. Normally I hate Superman, but in this version it seems like lunk head actually deals with alot of grit. And I love grit lathered with some butter on it.
So before the trailer strikes any visualness you get this music. But this isn't any ordinary type of song, it's a melody of sadness. A reminiscing bitter memory cycling through Clark Kent's Kryptonian brain. This lingering memory still stings Clark hard and even drove even the World's strongest being into a state of disarray.
It all began when Doomsday attacked, his greatest nemesis.
To keep from blathering too long I'll make it short. This movie is about an established Superman whom everyone believed in until Doomsday attacked. Of coarse Superman defeated this foe like all the rest, but this time an ultimate price was paid. The battle claimed the two things he loved most. The city of Metropolis and the love of his life Louis Lane.
For the first time in his life Clark has felt the repercussions of victory. A losing win. Realizing the costs of his almighty strength in comparison to the so fragile Earthlings he decides the world may be a better place without him. Unable to show his face to Earth no longer with the wake of this realization he flees to outer space to console himself on what has happened. But as time passes Clark never feels comfortable and is restless despite helping other worlds. For Earth is where his heart had stayed.
So he comes back, but hides his true nature. A big memorial is built in the reconstructed Metropolis area ran by Lex Luther. The news and media still years later harp about the catastrophe of the Superman / Doomsday fight. So Clark adapts to the normal hard working jobs of the common people. He blends well into society and even grows a beard and abandons that signature stray curl in his hair. But the memory of Lois Lane and all the innocent people still haunt him. And the media reminds him of it on a daily basis. So he takes an isolated life on the open seas. Clark swears off his powers for forever.
Until the day comes when General Zod comes to Earth to find Clark for some specific reason. I'd say, to make it awesome, Clark still not knowing his full strengths combined with his typical careless fighting tactics ruined other civilizations made Zod hunt him down to pay for his crimes against the citizens of life. Or maybe Zod demands Clark help him construct a new Krypton on Earth making humans the slaves or even wiping out the planet to start anew. You know typical "evil" things.
The last part of my prediction isn't very worthy I realize. But I really do love the concept of the movie beginning with Doomsday and Superman slugging the snot out of each other while demolishing the World's Greatest City. What is a better sight then two gods duking it out? Then Superman's ultimate attack takes the life of Lois Lane to drive him into the depths of depression. Anyways that is how I think the movie would begin with the ultimate bang, but we all know it won't happen.
Now I think I'll sulk into a depression of my own because if it.
