I welled up. 

I gotta admit, I near teared up at the theme... What an amazing tribute to both John Williams and Christopher Reeves. Gunn really respects what came before. :D

I'm sure it will be a good movie, I'm not engaging with David Corenswet as Superman/Clark, I dont know what it is but people seem really hyped for the movie so I'll reserve judgement.

And yeah, to jump on the Krypto bandwagon, he looked cool! I did like this on Twitter - Zack Snyder's Krypto:

Until we see some extended scenes of him as Clark and as Superman, it's going to be hard to figure out if he's it.  Certainly no reason for judgement at this point.... I would argue that he seems promising, and I like that he tries to look different as Clark vs Superman, rather than simply just wearing glasses.  

 

Also: LOL to that image

He's already better than what the previous movies did with HC, at least now Superman and Clack look different enough that it's not slapping you in the face.  All they did before was put glasses on Henry and call it a day.  At least Gunn is changing up Corensweats look more with a different hairstyle and probably personality, more like what we got in the original with Reeves.

Solid trailer, I don't need to see another.  I just wish I could have the time to see it on the big screen, but I don't know if I'll be able to make it out do to work.

whats this crap, looks ai generated and what is the point of the fake video tape effect 

On the other hand, the robots are practical effects - physical  humanoid robotics with character shells, the main CGI being their legs when they're moving fast. Alan Tudyk voices #4.

      Is a fast food restaurant a good metric to compare against?
    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      By Almohandis · Posted

      Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.

      I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
