[center]GOYER & SYFY DEVELOPING "KRYPTON" SUPERMAN ORIGIN SERIES

This sounds interesting and would be something I'd like to
watch. But my big concern is how cheap SyFy has become in
producing quality content. I haven't seen anything on par with
Battlestar Galatica and Caprica. I hope they take this serious
and do it right and not f*ck around with it by nickle and diming
it.

I like the idea of this being a Game of Thrones types of series.
Pure speculation on their part, but it's something I didn't even
consider until they brought it up.

I share your Syfy concerns, though I read recently that the head
of Syfy admitted they dropped the ball after Galactica and
Stargate, and now they're trying to make up for it. So I'm sure
that they're going to push for this and their other new
properties to be as high-calibur as they can.
Game Of Thrones is the high water mark, but remember how much of
that first season was people sitting around or standing around
talking. Even the "big battle" wasn't even there, Tyrion was
knocked out before it started. The budget got higher in each
subsequent season, but they still had to fight for all of it. I
don't know what they're going to do for Krypton.
This is making me realize what a smart move Smallville was, you
can find little farm towns everywhere, Metropolis could be shot
in any city, the bad guys were all people who got their hands on
meteor fragments, and a lot of the show was just teen angsty
drama... cheap to film. The effects were expensive, sure, but
since it takes forever for Superman to get his powers, you only
have to do one at a time.

The Trailer is more than I ever expected. This looks very good

series.

I didn't realize how old this thread was until now. I had to
change the thread title to read 2018 instead of 2015, which is
when this series was suppose to come out. Anyway....
I just watched the first two episodes and I'm already
hooked....because this show has a lot of potential. The Pilot
and followup episode was a bit long in tooth with exposition. I
get why they had to get all the information out now, but in
doing so, the pacing was a bit sluggish because there was a lot
of taking head shots. But I rather they get all that out now so
they can really start to focus on the fun stuff. As for the
story itself, I don't know if this is new canon for Superman or
if it's being created specifically for the series, but I think
it's a pretty good and unexpected twist in basically using the
Romeo & Juliet plot with Time Travel thrown in to make this
series what it is.
We all know about the Zod and El Family, just check out
Superman: The Movie
HTML http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/superman-the-movie-(1978)/msg6449/#msg6449<br
/>when General Zod is banished to the Phantom Zone by Jor-El for
a
quick Cliffnotes recap between the two to understand where they
stand against each other. So, having Seg-El secretly romancing
Lyta Zod is now and forever going to change my perception of the
Zod Vs. El relationship moving forward. If you're trying to
figure out who these characters are in the scope of the
timeline, simply put, Seg is Superman's Great Grandfather, or
more to the point the Father of Jor-El as played by Marlon
Brando in the movie.
I'm definitely on board for the rest of Season 1 to see where
this goes. FYI, the FX look amazing! This feels more like
watching a Movie rather than a TV series. We only get one shot
of Brainiac and he too looks damn good FX-wise.
