Not a fan of what I see and hear but I’ll be there opening night. I’ll give Gunn credit for appearing to go full comics nerd here with his approach. Ballsy.

At first glance, instead of looking like a new direction, it kinda looks like a mishmash of all Supes.
Not risky at all, but looks good imo.

I just watched the SUPER/MAN documentary on a plane a week ago, and I teared up.

He should be charismatic, carefree, optimistic -- like Christopher Reeve played him. Equal parts George Clooney and Mr. Incredible.
Straight garbage.
It's a teaser trailer with very little dialogue.

I wish they hadn’t fucked with the S. Other than that, I’m optimistic.
