I'm a little conflicted about it.

There is a lot that I really like in these short scenes they included:
- Superman as an inspiration and saving people.
- Clark as a dork and completely different in his behavior from Superman.
- Lois and Clark's chemistry.

Some things I will need the movie to say if they work for me or not:
- The costume and the symbol.
- The other superheroes.
- Lex.
- Krypto.

 

I'm glad that it looks bright and colorful. Superman shouldn't be dark, gritty, and hopeless.

 

I really loved Man of Steel (though the later movies sucked), but I'm very excited for this one. Love the kinda campy vibe. Only character i'm kinda concerned about in this one is Lex.

Clark definitely feels like what will be the millenial/Gen Z version of the character.

 

He can't do worse than Jesse goddamn Eisenberg did

 

The trailer is that, but surprisingly enough Superman is gloomy and depressed in a lot of his scenes. I'm not sure if there is even one that he is openly positive.

Nicholas Hoult can play Lex for sure, but I'm not sure what Gunn's plans for him are since he gave him Otis and Eve Teschmacher as his sidekicks.

 

It's James Gunn so we know what kind of movie we're getting.

I think it will be a blast and good fun to watch.

I also think it will be too silly/absurd/camp to really occupy my mind for any serious period after walking out of the cinema.

 

According to Gunn it's going to be a lot less comedic than his other movies. The trailer definitely is even with Krypto. Which is both good and bad. Good because sometimes challenging yourself can bring even better results and Superman could be that for Gunn. Bad because it may turn out that Gunn simply is not as good as he needs to be for this film if he limits his antics.

 

It looked like a shit-ton of characters are going to be introduced. Gunn managed it with Guardians, I hope he does so with this one. I'm just not optimistic with so many at in one movie. Are they all going to get one line and then be ignored or just be in the background as so many movies tend to do? Is there a run time released yet?
