One thing I've felt DC films haven't quite been able to nail for a long time, at least for me, was making me feel like I was seeing the DC world brought to screen. This trailer nails that!
Right, it’s supposed to communicate essence and felt it was going more for shots of characters to wow. We need to be wowed by Superman. Save the Justice league folks for later.
I don’t mind seeing tiny glimpses of the JL but this trailer needed to show more of Supes being this symbol of hope and I feel it didn’t so that… at least not as much as I was looking for … still, I will be watching this day one oN IMAX
It's been said a bunch but it bears repeating. I love that Gunn likes comics and isn't afraid to throw silly comic book stuff in his comic book movies.
Man, this trailer just didn’t excite me. It looks like a comic book which perhaps is the point. I hope to be proven wrong. I’ll withhold judgement until the next trailer
Krypto has been around for a good while. I remember he had a cartoon on Cartoon Network for a while and I remember there was a movie about superhero pets, too.
Oh aye. Krypto was in the golden age comics for years, then people forgot him when comics went all grimdark and brooding, and forgot him again when they went grounded and realistic.
Then writers remembered when comics were fun and brought him back.
Oh Yeah!
but I really wish they just had Supes whistle and you see the snow cloud in the distance. Letting people guess.
It would have been so much better to be surprised by Krypto in theater.
Not sure how a dark and brutal Batman is going to exist in this vibrant universe. Or a horrific Swamp Thing as well. The bowl cut hair cut for the Green Lantern & Superman’s red underpants return has me very concerned. Glad DC Eleworlds is keeping Matt Reeves’s Batman. Hoping for a darker universe
Meanwhile I could barely contain my excitement at those very things. Especially the red underpants. Superman's costume just looks so bland without the red to break up all the blue.
Guy Gardner is famous for his dogshit haircut, why would they change it.
And the trunks are iconic, man. Snyder's biggest mistake was ditching them. Edgelord shit has held DC in a monopoly for too long. Let's get some earnestness back into films, it's overdue.
Comments about the dog in a new #SUPERMAN trailer... Did everybody forget how TV already did #Krypto in #TITANS..? #movies #filmsky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJgC6TX-f5w
Dear🥹, I’m Alaa, . I am trying to take care of my family and my brothers. I am trying to provide food and drink. We are going through a terrible famine and the prices are very expensive. Please, any donation you make will help me provide daily essentials, amounting to $100.
The idea that there are aliens that look human are a near zero probability at best, but to pile onto that a dog that looks just like dogs on earth, I cannot manage to suspend my disbelief enough, but OK, I guess we're doing this.
Nah, Musk is critically unaware and surrounds himself with yes-men who tell him how smart he isn't all the time. But you're right he's not Lex, as Lex is brilliant. Musk is Justin Hammer.
Lex is bald and most people don't like him. Musk is too un-self-aware for that. Musk thinks he's Tony Stark. He thinks he's attractive and sexy and smart and cool. (Lex isn't exactly cool)
That's always been a part of Superman's themes though. Clark is considered old fashioned by his colleagues because he's from a small country town and is a polite and gentle person who isn't pushy like a lot of Metropolis.
I’m aware. I’m saying the quote itself sounded very naive at best. It doesn’t help that Peter Safran also used that quote in conjunction with “Truth, Justice and the American Way”, which is a very outdated slogan that DC retired for a reason.
Well, that's the glory of storytelling, in my opinion. It allows navigation for complex changes in culture and standards with an emotional pull. If a writer can pull off a narrative that allows empathy through connection to characters, it's better than a discursive lecture. I have high hopes.
There's a difference between kindness and injustice masquerading as decorum. Of course. And it's also true that Trump has destroyed the standard of decorum leaders were until recently expected to maintain. So we're in weird times, we must allow.
Well, of course, there have always been kind people and shitty people. But that doesn't mean it's all the same. 20 yrs ago an adjudicated rapist who makes fun of the disabled couldn't get elected president. So the morals and ethics people care about have changed.
I'm all in for this movie, but if I had one criticism, I think Gunn should have gone 100% classic with the suit. I don't think anyone would have minded fewer seams and a lower collar, really.
So you think the correct way to reboot an entire movie universe is to cast the same guy from the last generation of movies. Got it. This is why people get to have opinions.
That’s my point. It didn’t need a reboot. Why they never just continued with the storyline they had going with Cavill is puzzling. He was a great fit for Superman and he had a loyal following. Why fix what’s not broken?
clearly you haven't seen the box office numbers for the last few movies, they needed a new start and new direction and that is why Gunn was brought in.
If I had any complaint, any complaint whatsoever, I think it would've been a cool idea to base Krypto on an extinct dog breed considering he's an alien. But that's just me being meta about it.
I was so psyched about seeing Krypto that I forgot about crypto. Maybe because a dog from a planet with a red sun who has superpowers is more believable than that digital pyramid scheme nonsense
My favorite part about that scene is the way Cheadle portrays Rhodey's split-second decision to clown on Banner. You can just see the idea form on his face and he immediately follows thru. Perfect.
Thank you @jamesgunn.bsky.social ... For me what's been missing in #Superman movies is not that you will "believe a man can fly" but that there's no way THIS man can fly. The true #ClarkKent disguise is back!
Bro.... This guy.... The new one????
Trash as fuck brooooooo
Superman has a great physic which perfectly matches with Cavill one... This one looks like kid... Doesn't get the feel of superman.
.... Truly looks like a web series full of 💩💩💩.....
Man I regret loosing Zack Snyder.....
Synder doesn't believe in HEROISM. All of his superhero movies spent 3 hours a piece arguing with Ayn Rand about whether or not Superman should actually do anything, it was ridiculous.
This new one looks like "hey, people are in trouble, let me help." What a novel concept! 😂
Because they don’t have enough completed scenes to release a full trailer. Teasers are about selling the tone if the film so they can be just a bunch of disconnected scenes while a full trailer needs to sell the plot so it needs to be more cohesive.
To people who say this film trailer sucks grow a bigger dick and read some comics. This looks fantastic. Crypto looks awesome. In this. I love how they’re introducing guy Garrett, which is just another like Meta show poking at the fan boys who are butt hurt because Snyder didn’t work
I've never been a giant fan of Super Man as a character, he always seemed too overpowered to be considered interesting but honestly this trailer has my attention. James Gunn hasn't let me down yet so I'll give this a fair shake and see what Mr. Gunn can do with him. 🤔
That was definitely DC. They saw the revenue of the Dark Knight. The whole schtick with denying the goofiness of comics Nolan created and went all-in on it. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Nolan's Dark Knight, but it obviously got too much, to the point they completely lost the plot in Joker 2
NOW YOU'RE TALKING! MAYBE CLARK RESCUES A REGULAR SIZED CAT AN KRYPTO RESCUES A TINY CAT AND THEN THEY BOTH TURN TO THE CAMERA AND WINK AT US!!! PLEASE JAMES GUNN GIVE THIS TO ME!!!
I want my Superman to be happy and bright and goofy and kind and I want my Superman to have a dog in a cape and I want my Superman to save absolutely everything and everyone and I want to punch the air when he does

Gunn did say he's interested in Elseworlds stuff and Red Son is on the table.
Plus that suit's design is hawt.
What a win to have James Gunn
I like The Batman but I'm tired of dark and gritty, Superman shouldn't be dark and gritty, it should have some camp in it

#Krypto will be everywhere; #Grogu take a seat.
It’s so obvious that Gunn does. All the goofy elements, the costume, the wanting-to-be-a-decent-person, they’re all essential.
This new one looks like "hey, people are in trouble, let me help." What a novel concept! 😂
You are very explicitly referring to a preferred sliver of supes
None of these comics have much sacred material anymore. Theyve all died, revived, written by a million people across fashion decades
Had parallel continuities, zero hours, crises on infinite whatevers
Amazing trailer
Trailers can have short clips, but they're usually carefully arranged so it has a narrative to tell you what the movie is about.
Can’t wait to believe and hope again
Also that first clip of him laying in the snow looks horrible
There is only one Superman and that was with Christopher Reeve.
I blame ComicCon.
God love Henry Cavill but Superman shouldn’t be a mope fest. The one superhero I don’t want having a “should I stop doing this” moment is Superman.
I loved Rouths Superman (bar the stalking) & this looks lovely.
Gunn: [Plays John Williams Superman theme]
DC: Superman is god damn hero.
Hes just a good boy. Standing in front of america asking it to love him.
And krypto is the goodest boy.
Supes rescues a kitten and then you see Krypto with a tiger.
Also there needs to be silly gags like Clark using his breath to play pranks on Jimmy Olsen … there needs to be a tiny bit of superdickery
