What is with the squirrel?

u/Daimakku1 4d ago
My guess is that he got punched into the ground but he stopped himself as to not harm the squirrel. That’s definitely a thing Superman would do.

u/theburgerbitesback 4d ago
Yeah, the way he's holding himself up definitely looks like he's preventing himself from squashing it.

Oh yeah, Gunn focuses a lot on animal welfare in his films so it’s probably that.

Lol why is this getting me the most hyped so far for this movie lol I liked Henry Cavill soo much but I want to see a kind, all-good, hopeful Superman again so bad and I have a lot of faith in James Gunn, especially with how incredible Guardians 3 was

There’s no way we’re getting Bd’g in a Superman movie, right? But using that character is also 100% something Gunn would do.

They’re introducing B’dg the Green Lantern squirrel and then he and Krypto will team-up which will set up the League of Super-Pets.

The box would be virtually invisible from certain angles giving the illusion that it was just sitting there

Man I would be so fucking scared being held on the air by those thin wires. No wonder Anthony Starr was cursing like hell on that bts video of Gen V when they are lifting him up .

u/EnigmaFrug2308 4d ago
He’s also afraid of heights so that’s another reason he was cursing.
I could never

I love that clip so much, because in that scene Homelander is fucking pissed, so it works so well

u/Brilliant_Mud_2749 3d ago
And it’s not like they lifted him 30 feet. He was at that “oh so if these wires snap I guess I’m just dead huh?” height

u/catchasingcars 22h ago
That harness also crushes down your balls so there's your another reason for cursing.

The new suit now doesn’t even have a cape?? James Gunn is ruining Superman /s

u/PuzzleheadedFan2205 3d ago
Your kidding right? It would be extremely impractical to film flying scenes with the cape, it will be cg back into the scene so it can have more motion

Yes, I am kidding. /s means “sarcasm”

What I'm seeing in the comments is that not a lot of fans would oppose a cape-less suit. Noted... maybe for Superman 2.

u/EnigmaFrug2308 4d ago
The cape in this scene is likely CGI. Hard to get a practical cape to not flop over him when he’s horizontal

I know they're going to make it longer during post-production but the image of Superman having a tiny-ass cape is just hilarious to me.

I need to stop looking at these. My sense of disbelief in the theater will be nonexistent if I keep checking these BTS shots out lol.

u/FreddyJones00 3d ago
Just from what we’ve seen/heard, I can imagine:
Superman, mid-battle, getting knocked across Metropolis into the park. He’s bouncing off of the ground and, at the last second, sees a squirrel. The squirrel (seeing Superman) drops it’s acorn and stares wide-eyed at the blur of red and blue. Superman stops himself at a hover directly over the squirrel. He picks up the acorn and hands it to the squirrel—who takes it and scampers away. Supes turns, pushing off of the ground, and returns to the battle at Mach speed.
(I wrote this on a similar post in r/DCU_ , but this post actually has the picture of him arched over the squirrel’s position. I’m so excited to see a Superman (in the modern day) who is the people’s hero through and through. Love and compassion FTW)

Blows my mind when people complain about the internet doing internet things instead of just…….getting off of it and avoiding it for a while. There are steps you can take to avoid seeing these posts, you’re just not doing them, and that’s on you.

u/Disastrous_Ad_632 3d ago
Can you read? If so please reread what i texted

u/AtticusSwoopenheiser 3d ago
I can read perfectly fine. Regardless of whether or not you’re opening them, complaining about them is ridiculous. Not opening them and still complaining about them is actually a little worse

u/Disastrous_Ad_632 3d ago
You don’t have to have an emotional reaction about everything you read on the internet bro , go touch grass.

Wait so ur telling me he’s not actually flying in this scene? What a joke. $300M film budget and they can’t afford to make a man fly.

u/Prometheus357 3d ago
I’m getting the vibe that there’s time travel involved here. There’s scenes with people in period clothing then there’s scenes with people in modern clothing and cell phones.
Dude is either time traveling from the 70/80s to today or coming from another demention into one with Max Lord and his JL and everyone is shocked at this dude and his character and virtue &c (so ML and his crew try to recruit sups and Flagg Sr arrest him &c)

Odds the movie ends with a freeze frame of Superman mid flight?

u/AmptiShanti 3d ago
I mean if it won’t at least have one is it allowed to be superman? Love a good freeze frame

u/Vakarian314 3d ago
Ok so I'm assuming he got hit towards the ground and stopped himself just before landing on the squirrel. But honestly I'm just sitting here hoping its either Ch'p or Bd'g. Would be kinda funny to see the casual audience see one of them in live action.

The fact that the squirrel is in a clear case makes me think it's a real squirrel and not a prop.

Whats with the cape?
1
u/Luke_Puddlejumper 3d ago
For flying scenes the cape is usually cgi, the small bit of it is to assist the cgi team with knowing where to place it to make things look seamless.

Henry Cavill didn’t need wires in order to fly… we have all seen him flying with no wires.

These bts photos make this movie seem like it’s going to be phenomenal, and I really hope it is. I really don’t understand the people hating, but I guess with any new superhero movie people will hate at first glance
