Aquaman is still dumb. “Guys we need to lure the aliens into the ocean so Aquaman can participate in the battle.”
So far this movie is following the formula of every Justice League story. Superman gets disabled, League struggles to fight without him, Batman figures out how to fix Superman, Superman solos the adventure.
For the spoiler-averse, there’s not much there. Overall, looks like what I might have expected. Lots of teal/darkness punctuated with a few quips. Cyborg’s super power is uncanny valley. Wonder Woman whips her hair about in slow motion (the power of Pantene Pro-V). The Batcar is a mech now, maybe? I can’t quite sort out what it’s doing.
Well, I thought the trailer was pretty good. Seemed to hit all the right notes. Now whether the movie will be any good or not . . . definitely crossing my fingers.
Man that looks goofy in all the wrong ways. I don’t understand, I like Batman more than any single Marvel superhero, I should be in the bag. But this stuff just turns me off. I will continue my streak of not seeing these DC universe movies, I guess.
So I’ve been completely out of the loop, and haven’t seen any of the DCU movies. Call me strange but I like parts of my movies to take place in daytime!
I was gonna ask where Superman is but I saw earlier in the thread that he died(?!??) at the end of, uh, BVS? Really dead, or dead-but-of-course-he’s-coming-back dead? The snarky comment a few posts above here makes me think it’s the second case.
Superman IS going to show up in this movie, isn’t he?
No one knows. He’s listed in IMDB as working on the film but that could mean anything.
For what it’s worth, I actually thought that trailer was god damned cool, much better than the BvS trailers at the very least. I’m in. Great music in that trailer, which helped.
I liked it. I don’t have super high hopes for the movie itself. But I thought the trailer did its job of showing the team coming together without actually spoiling the story or villain. It made me curious to know more, rather than make me feel I had seen the best bits already.
The fact that Lois Lane is in the trailer is a huge indication that Supes will be in the movie for sure. After all, someone needs to save the JLA from Darkseid. Although I’m pretty sure it was Bats who saved the day in the new 52 version.
I mean, it can’t be worse than Suicide Squad, right? Right?
I’m no Snyder fan - he’s got no feel for narrative and relies on the same cinematic tricks over and over and over again - but he can make some cool shots, for sure. Trailer was pretty cool, I thought.
The characters all look badass. Dig the way the Flash moves. Momoa as Aquaman is pretty great based on his bits of the trailer. Godot looks crazy awesome as WW IMO. And I’ve always been pro-Batfleck in concept, though it’s not like he’s had scripts worth a damn to work with.
Cyborg, though. What the fuck? Is he just there to remind us that DC is incompetent? Weird.
