Who wants to bet people will magically not say Gunn doesn’t underatand superheroes as he takes this route?
“Oh fuck, what the fuck? I’m not even supposed to be here. Hope I don’t jack off”

Thank God. I love James Gunn and his use of needle drops but Superman is one of those characters where the score needs to be one of the most important parts of the movie. Even Snyder got that right. I'm glad James understands that.
Isn’t “world-building” supposed to be its own setup?
I’ll try not to judge the movie before it comes out, but honestly, I’m not stoked for it.
I really want to see more from the Green Lanterns side of DC.
