Superman & Faora Exchanging Glances In Smallville
Wed, August 24, 2011 
For some reason the debate was still being had out in super geek forums across the interwebs, even though it was fairly obvious, Superman is not wearing trunks. Pictures from the Plano set which is representing Smallville conclude this. From the pictures Supes doesn't look none to happy that Faora and some Mo Cap menace are owning the streets that Clark once called home.
You can see why they wanted to release an official shot of the suit, because these photos don't do it justice either way. You can't tell if it is good or bad based off these shots. Suit looks dingy blue, and because of the lack of separation from the trunks, there is a lot of blue to be had. Some sort of hybrid belt on there too. Whats up prototype suit from "Flyby".
Not sure if it looks good or bad, it's sort of a grainy spy shot from The Man Of Steel Facebook Page. I can now safely say this site has some deep relationship with the studio based on these photos. The real question is, who is the walking house in the Mo Cap suit? Doesn't look like Zod to me. Please tell me Non is back. Maybe he'll be struggling with heat vision again. Such a problem with today's Kryptonians.
So what do you think? Is Superman bringing it or is it a fail?

I am a big fan of the Fly By concept... when it comes to Superman, and if they ever got rid of the trunks, my hope was that it would take on a design that resembled or was exactly like the Fly By design... and I'm very happy to say that I am pleasantly surprised.
i also noticed a difference in the last picture we had of Superman where we saw his leg, side of his chest, and shoulder compared to this one... this one has a much more saturated and brighter blue... me personally, Im hoping this is how bright it's really going to be...
again, I am a traditionalist, and I do enjoy the trunks look, but this is fine with me... i have no problem with this. Just as long as they can make it work... IF they can get it to work, then I'm all for it... I still want ot see trunks... i may do a manip to see what this suit would look like with trunks... and judging from the mid section of Henry Cavill, having trunks would of been much better than the SR design.
Faoroa looks pretty sweet. Also great to finally get a frontal view of superman suit. Though I hate the trunks are gone. Looks so incomplete without trunks. Its to blue needs something to break up the solid color look. My guess is likely dc demaanded new film suit to have aspects of dcnu relaunch design. And snyder compromised to have low neckline and other differences?
Good stuff as per usual, thanks. I do hope this kind of thing gets more exposure. mfucpu mfucpu - 2012 moncler coats.
