Did they just decide to skip to the Endgame part of building a cinematic universe? Seems cluttered as fuck for a single movie, especially for people who won't know who half or more of these people are.

I dont think they will be in it much, they just decided to have like a Justice League or whatever exist instead of having to build that up over multiple films, but Superman will def be the main focus of the film. I think people are real fucking tired of origin movies, particularly ones that have been done recently. Also I kinda figured Superman being fucked up will have something to do with Lex and Kryptonite.

Guy Gardiner having the bowl cut is great IMO, and I don't think he will be a joke I think he will be a dick.

No, it looks like Gunn is sprinkling in whatever team Supes is going to to be in this reboot. The ones that get enough interest will get origin movies too most likely. Green Lantern would be awesome if they can get Ryan Reynolds to reprise Hal, and give John Stewart and Guy Gardner the real comic book origin.

If this is more like Guardians of the Galaxy in terms of quality, tone, and Gunn’s restraint;

Gunn has said this will be a fully involved superhero DC universe. Meaning all the heroes have been around for a bit and doing stuff. They aren't starting fresh with a bunch of origin movies and such.

That seems fine but I'm not sure that means there have to be a dozen of them in one film.

Anything that can leave a scratch on Superman is an ELE. That's why so many of the comics had him roaming around the cosmos, because aside from Lex Luthor there weren't many things on Earth that could provide any sort of compelling plot.

People want Reeves-like Superman back. As much as I like Cavill, the Snyder Superman sucked.

The sad thing is that having seen some of Cavill's other stuff, he was perfectly capable of a Reeves like Superman. I've seen clips from a film where he was pretty bang on as Clark Kent as well. It's sad that we never got to see him be that Superman.

Hopefully one day he can come back and do a new Superman. I mean the TV show brought back Brandon Routh for a CW special. Hollywood can do it too, especially since comic book movies have "multiple universes." It looks like Spider-Man may be getting ready to do it, anyway.

Also, Brandon is now at an age where he'd be great as an older Superman, now.

The interesting parts of the movie are everything but Superman, so far. big of fan of the DC shows/cinematic verse ; watched all of CW shows start to finish. Biggest bit is the appearance of Gorilla Grodd in the newspaper article. If there's a Grodd there is a Flash and if there's a Superman and a Flash then we have a Justice League. The suit is just so fucking out of place though; wtf is Supes doing with a tactical suit? The dude is a Kryptonian, makes no fucking sense. Hopefully Gunn just uses Supes as a landing spot to explore the rest of the DC world in a familiar way; ex. if there is Luthorcorp then we should see Queen Industries, think there was even a green arrow joke in Peacemaker.

Only thing that bugged me was why is Superman bleeding from falling on the ice? Hopefully it turns out he was fighting some kind of badass that actually could break his skin

Gonna go out on a limb and guess Superman didn't just slip and fall so bad he had to life alert his dog.

Cavil is way better. I love Man of Steel. Fuck you all.

I'll still watch this and I"m fine with Super dog. I hope ti's a good movie. Superman needs it.

Why is Billy Corgan Lex Luthor?
