I’ll admit that my anticipation level for Man of Steel is higher than it should be and I’m ready to strap myself in for disappointment but the last thing I need is another trailer to reveal more of the plot. Sure, we’re all familiar with Superman and his super powers but the whole point of seeing a new incarnation of the character is different from other versions. That won’t however stop me from revealing it to you kind viewers.
With barely a week until release, this is do or die time so I’m not quite sure why they are allowing the trailer to be Man of Steel presented to you by Nokia? I mean, isn’t that kind of a joke? First of all, why the hell would Superman need a cellphone? He could just fly over and talk to you in the blink of an eye…but I digress. Does anyone else find this “presented by X corporation” inherently silly or is this just the new state of advertising? Is everything studio film inevitably going to become one big commercial for something or other? Does it bother you as much as it does me?
Anyways, I’ll stop spoiling the fun and let you watch the trailer:
