    **POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD**

    One thing I reacted to is how they've dropped the whole "crystal" concept of Krypton. The planet looks like a normal, inhabitable planet, the Fortress of Solitude is made of metal...

    The creators have said that Krypton will be a planet where all the inhabitants are genetically engineered and bred for a specific roles in society, but that Kal-El will have been naturally conceived. Could this be what Jor-El is talking about, perhaps to the Council, when he mentions a child aspiring towards "something other than what society had intended"?

    Lois' monologue about the "guardian angel" sounds a bit like a wrap-up, but it could also be her talking to a colleague at the Daily Planet (or a friend or relative) about a story she's working on, with a series of mysterious recues, but she could also be talking to Superman/Clark Kent about someone else he can relate to...

    Jor-El's talk about Superman being an "ideal to strive towards" is obviously something that will be said in the fortress (or on Krypton to the little baby El), no mystery there...

    Both of the scenes with Zod (the ones where he's talking) are from Krypton (He's seen detained by people in armor.), the first one when he is arrested (possibly after trying to take or kill the illegally conceived Kal-El), the second one at his sentencing (he is seen cuffed along with others)...

    I'm not overly impressed by the music (It's good. But is it amazing?)

    These are my thoughts on the trailer. What are yours?

    It's ridiculous how unprecedented the idea of Superman having a real fight on screen is.
