Justice League - Comic-Con Sneak Peek

Man of Steel theme being used in the back half of the trailer.

Totally suits the Justice League

I didn't like them putting it in a higher key, though.

The theme was originally in the exact same key as the original Superman theme that Williams scored. Pitching it up an extra step (or two) kinda strained it. It took me a little bit to even recognize what it was because of that.

That actually wasn't half bad. I still have little faith in this not being a big mess (Also lol at Superman being a beacon), but Aquaman continues to impress me.

I guess I just need to be an entertaining mess at least.

It felt and looked too much Marvel-y. I didn't like it.

Well uhh, we don't want it to be too DCEU-y, so...

So this trailer looks like the "Justice League - Wonder Woman edition" that most of us expected. The film itself looks like it could be fun if the editing is up to par this time around.

It would be pretty cool if every superhero film this year was in the good to great range.

Well it looks... eh, the large scale CGI parts look really unfinished or just plain bad.

Flash might actually be better than I thought he would be though.

Not only is Batman straight up LYING about Superman's effect on the populace (because that's sure as shit not what the films themselves seemed to suggest or push) but I like how the entire first half of the trailer is basically positioning the film as a Wonder Woman sequel.

Looks good, can't wait to see it.

The one thing that kind of bothers me is how they kept saying, Superman was this symbol of hope and how the whole world mourns for him. I never felt that in both Man of Steel and BvS. And I may have remembered it wrong but weren't there a lot of people protesting against him and criticising him?

Yeah, it's weird that WB are trying to retcon the DCEU Superman into being this beacon of optimism and hope when he really wasn't.

Gotta have been talking to Nightwing at the end there.

Also, calling bullshit on Superman being a 'beacon' to others.

Liked the 'clockwork penguins' line.

I liked it. The humor was pretty good. Aquaman, Flash, and Wonder Woman were all great in it.

Will be interesting to see what they do with Flash's power besides just running fast.

I wonder why they didn't show the face of the dude at the beginning?

Is it going to be a known villain they are keeping secret?

Except he kinda was but people didn't realise this until he sacrificed himself to save humanity?
 
Am I the only one who feels that Zack Snyder comes off very much as not being in his element for this one? It feels like a checkbox product for test audiences.

He's not really the dude you hire to make a fun and quippy super hero movie. Say what you want about BvS (I didn't like it), but it felt very much like his movie.

well not really...yet

Not to mention the people who worshipped him, mourned him, etc. Superman absolutely was a beacon to many people, unless you're wilfully misrepresenting the movie.

I hope they explain why the Amazonians were just keeping a motherbox they most likely knew nothing about on a damn pedestal.

I'm not sold on Ezra or Cyborg, but everything else looks damn fine

Zoss Snydon will bring the goods

Swap super hero for Spartan, and isn't that exactly what 300 was

What is this Nightwing talk.

It's Superman, surely. But if they real that outright it'll be them showing the last card up their sleeve.

They just want to keep plausible deniability, but that's black hair and a red cape.

Batman skraight up lying about Superman 😂😂

Rest looks kinda hype tho but that's what I thought about BvS as well.
