The packed audience at Warner Bros. and Legendary Entertainment's Saturday (July 14) panel at Comic-Con was already flying high after sneak peeks at upcoming films "Pacific Rim" and "Godzilla," so director Zack Snyder's presentation of new "Man of Steel" footage sent fans through the roof.

The movie's star Henry Cavill also made a surprise appearance, telling the audience, "It's a dream come true" to play Superman.

The clip screened at the panel shows only flashes of the film, including images of a young Clark Kent and Cavill in full Superman attire, as well as Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Russell Crowe as Jor'El. We also see a shirtless Clark Kent on fire and Superman crashing into a bank vault.

Snyder tells fans that "Man of Steel" will show a more relatable Superman than previous iterations, which he says depicted the superhero as "a big blue Boy Scout up on the throne."

Are you ready for "Man of Steel" to hit theaters?

"Man of Steel Teaser."

And it's a crotch shot of Henry Cavill?

Hmmm.

And it's a crotch shot of Henry Cavill?

Hmmm. 

Well, all I can say is, at 0:40 - 0:42 (with the voiceover from Russell Crowe)
 
and at 0:46 - 0:48 (with the voiceover from Kevin Costner)--

THUD!

That FACE.

Omg.

Looks good!  The music is taken from "The Fellowship of the Ring" and is my favorite part of the score.  It's from the moments after Gandalf falls in Moria.

Leave it to Meryl, our premier LotR fan, to recognize the music!

Yes! 

Up close that suit looks like chain mail. 

[Aloysius J. Gleek]

Yes! 

Me too!

Up close that suit looks like chain mail. 

You're being kind!

As I said earlier--Superman wearing rubber  thermal underwear? The kind with waffle weave?

NOT loving the costume change, at all, at all--




Never mind. We still love ya', Henry!

Not really. In that up-close pic that "weave" or whatever it is reminded me of chain mail.

But, no, I don't like the costume change either.

I would think it would be kind of difficult to fly in a chain mail union suit.
