Lights! Camera! Destruction! Smallville joins casualty list for filming of 'Man of Steel'

Talk about double-parking.

Cleveland, Pittsburgh and now Plano, Ill.

The superhero rumor mill this summer has been filled with photographs and videos from the scenes of destruction for the filming of "The Avengers" (Cleveland as a stand-in for New York City) and "The Dark Knight Rises" (Pittsburgh in the role of Gotham City).


Now comes Plano, Ill., which has been cast as Smallville for "Man of Steel," the Superman movie starring Henry Cavill currently in production. The images are courtesy of the movie's Faceboog page, Man of Steel 2013.

Note the school bus on the right - Superman to the rescue?

The water tower will have to be renamed in post-production.

I sense a 7-11 movie tie-in.

Reminds me a bit of "The Festival" celebration from the original "Star Trek."
