I'm very excited from what I saw of this trailer. It had a great look and feel to it. Felt really grandiose and Routh looks good as Superman from what little they showed. I do so like the fact that they worked Brando into the movie and am interested to see how the footage will look. He is the quintessential Jor-El. Someone at work today asked me about who the voice was and I said it was Marlon Brando to which she replied "oh, the fat guy." Youth is truely wasted on the young.

The one on Smallville (Terrence Stamp) just amuses me. How ironic that Zod would be Jor-El in the tv series. I wonder if the voice he keeps hearing is in fact Zod's after all. Sadly I don't think their writers are that tricky.
 

Is it me, or does Brando's voiceover sound an awful lot like Anthony Hopkins? If I didn't know better, I'd have sworn it was him. Especially the bit where he says "They can be a great people, Kal-El. They wish to be." The way there's no pause between Kal-El and "they" is very Hopkins.

You're not the only person who thought that. When I saw the trailer, I thought for a moment "Is that Anthony Hopkins doing Jor-El's lines from the first Superman movie?"
