Zack Snyder's "Bizzaro" Vision

Hey guys Josh here bringing you some interesting news.


Now as many of you know Zack Snyder is going to be at the helm for the new superman movie (which I'm very excited about) and as I'm sure more of you know his movie sucker punch is released very soon so he has been on a mad marketing spree trying to get the word out to people who don't know about it. and seeing as your browsing the interwebs I'm guessing your not that small minority.  (trailer will be included if your a part of that minority)




Anyway during this publicity run Mr Snyder has possibly released some major parts of the new superman story. At about the 3 minute mark he starts to talk about the man of steel and how sucker punch has got him fired up for it. Around the 4 minute mark things get interesting, the interviewer asks for a snippet of information and Snyder replies with. "There could be a character people might refer to as superman". Now for you who have some knowledge of the superman world he is clearly hinting at "Bizzaro" an alternate version of superman who possesses all of his powers but in a slightly different way. e.g. superman has heat vision and ice breath, Bizzaro has ice vision and heat breath. you follow?. another little snag to Bizzaro is everything superman does Bizzaro does the opposite of which is why he wears a revered "S" on his costume. (Video Below)





Now this is still speculation many people on the Internet have took this nod a different way. here's a list of a few that could also make sense.

  • Lex Luthor - So Lex may turn humanitarian and start saving people, start to take a dislike to superman and turn into the super rich ego maniac we all know and despise. 
  • Zod - People are also suggesting people call him superman because they are both Krypotian and suggested maybe Zod attempts to beat superman at his own game. turn humanity against him and then crush him physically. it would add a different twist to the character and provide a better story. 
  • Superman - Yeah i know kinda obvious but people are saying maybe Snyder isn't hinting at any other characters at all maybe hes just pointing out the obvious and messing with our heads. 
Now personally i think the way Snyder took a while to think and choose his words carefully it was intentional and he really was hinting to Bizzaro. If that's what we see on screen is a different matter. I hope he does go the way of Bizzaro, it would make it more of a comic book film and reach out to more characters than Zod and Lex Luthor who have maybe been overused in films and T.V.
