Man Of Steel Pitch Meeting

After Man Of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice led the DCEU down a super serious and gritty path, Warner Bros has been looking to mix things up a bit with a lighter Justice League, a charming Wonder Woman and the upcoming Aquaman and Shazam movies. But why did the DC Extended Universe head down such a dark path in the first place. Were they really trying to capture the essence of The Dark Knight but with a much more colorful character? What’s up with all the strange decisions that the Kryptonians, Pa Kent and Superman himself make? Step inside the pitch meeting that led to Man of Steel! It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I can’t believe there was no joke saying that wearing glasses makes you look like a totally different person

[MrMixmaster]

After scouring through hours of Pitch Meetings, I’ve finally found “Super difficult, very much an inconvenience” @ 4:03. It’s as beautiful as I would thought it’d be.

Superman does a backflip, *snapped the bad guy's neck and saved the day!*

[fecxorfecxor]

“But it’s gonna look cool visually.”
“Oh it is?! Never mind the story and character and themes.”
That is the most concise explanation of Zack Snyder’s shortcomings as a filmmaker.

"I don't think ANYTHING matters"
"Interesting world view."

I lost it XD

"I don't think anything matters." Studio executive thinking in a nutshell!

[godbluffvdgg]

WHOA! WTF? These two guys are the SAME GUYS?... That's impossible; The one guy has glasses!

[TomUpjohn]

"Do you think it matters that Superman is much more of a hopeful and colorful hero than the Dark Knight?"
"I don't think anything matters."
"Interesting worldview."
Best joke.

Super difficult, very much an inconvenience.

“I’m Kal.”
“I’m Lois.”
“Let’s be in love.”
“OK.”

[angrytom]

"Seems like there were a lot of other options though."
"Whoops!"
"Whoopsie!"

0:25 Always had a problem with this. This is one of the reasons why I like Pitch Meetings so much. They don't spare the idiocy and plot holes of these scripts.

Krytonian's: We're so advanced and altruistic that we won't execute murderers nor save anyone from our planet. Later Zod is willing to execute an entire species, genocide to the max.

[RedStickInc]

I use pitch meeting quotes in my daily life

Judge: Evidence shows that you were the person behind the killing of these 5 men, what do you have to say for yourself?

Me: Whoops

Judge: Whoopsie

[crashnk]

"and people aren't going to realize he's Superman?"
"no because he has glasses"
Yeah right, as if that would ever work... Anyways, really great acting by both of you in this Pitch Meeting!

[mackcummy]

Plus the fact he impales the guys truck with logs without making enough noise to draw a crowd.

[lightning]

Manager Guy: This sounds really expensive, are you sure we can afford this
Script Guy: Actually super easy barely an inconvenience.
Manager: Really?
Script Guy: Yeah during Supermans fight with Zod we'll just show random places like Ihop getting destroyed, and Superman will throw a UHaul truck as well
Manager Guy: Product placements during fight scenes are tight

[kenaslalson]

nice to see " super difficult definitely an inconvenience"

[JsWarlord]

I'v seen so many of these I'm convinced they're actually standing in those rooms.

[Oberin]

Dude I stumbled on the GoT season 8 video, which was like the greatest thing ever, and have been systematically going through every pitch meeting over the past week or so.

Ryan...you sir, are an hilarious individual(s). Thank you for the laughs!
