It looks like Flash can tap into the speed force when ever he wants. The guy is moving too damn fast.

His lightning is blue, so if Zack has used the comic lore he has the highest possible speed at this point? I believe yellow is the slower speed?

Anyhow he looks amazing.

This looks good, but then DCCU trailers look good. The movies are another thing entirely.

That said, Cyborg still looks awful. And could they have put some color on the Parademons? Jesus.

I remember Goyer saying some shit about She-Hulk too.

Dude's got it in for green people.

What?!

(Googles)

It's like, most of the people reading comic books were these people like me who were just these little kids getting the shit kicked out of them every day... And so then they created She-Huk, right? Who was still smart... I think She-Hulk is the chick that you could fuck if you were Hulk, you know what I'm saying? ... She-Hulk was the extension of the male power fantasy. So it's like if I'm going to be this geek who becomes the Hulk then let's create a giant green porn star that only the Hulk could fuck.

Um, Batman and Aquaman look cool. I did get a chuckle out of the "I'm rich" line. They'll probably be the (sole) highlights of the film.

That's all the nice things I got to say. I'm still not expecting anything good to come from this after BvS turned out to be a dark sloppy mess. At best I'm just expecting something on the level of Miller's All Star Batman (with his Super-Friends)--it's so bad it somehow warps itself around the line and goes back to being good.

Looks good, Cyborgs CGI looks weird though. Looks nice, I might just get really high to see it for the effects. The plot though? I don't expect much
 
And that's the craziest thing about all this

Were not sure the first live action justice league movie will make a billion

Well, to be fair, non-Batman DC heroes don't have that much recognition in a lot of countries. I always thought people were underestimating how hard it would be for this film to break the billion mark. The Batman name as a brand is more powerful than Justice League. That's why his book almost always sells more than JL even though he's on the cover of both.

And Marvel is a different beast since they built their brand over time before Avengers blew up.

Not saying it can't do it btw, just that it's going to need a very specific set of circumstances in order to get there.
 
Typical good trailer from DC. But that says nothing to the state of the movie. If they shut the characters up and let the action and visuals control the screen, which is Snyder's only specialty, then maybe this can be good.
 
After having watched 3 DCEU films before (all of which got me bitter or at worst pissed off), this trailer did not help at all.

I honestly felt nothing exciting out of it, besides (again) the visuals. But Cyborg, yeeesh, he looks terrible!

I'm 0% optimistic. If I can get passed Wonder Woman, maybe just maybe it could go up.

Am I the only one wishing that Cyborg shaved his fucking head? That hairstyle really makes his cgi body look worse. I mean, does he still go to the barbershop?

He didn't turn it down, there was no role for him.

Fishburne: They asked me to come for a day, but I couldn't work it out, schedule-wise. And really, what do you need the newspaperman in ”Justice League" for? You want to see the Flash. You want to see Aquaman. You want to see Wonder Woman. You want to see the Lantern.

We've been waiting 35 years for these [characters] to show up on the screen. What were they doing over there? Marvel has been kicking their ass. This is the comic-book geek in me, who has a collection of comic books. I've been waiting to see these people on-screen forever.
Ashamed I'd forgot tbh
20 "Bronsonlee is a CHUD"s and you will be forgiven

Hmmm. Watching it a second time, my main concern now that is the movie might end up feeling overstuffed. We see glimpses of Atlantis, Cyborg's dad(?), Barry's dad, Bruce on a quest to find people, etc.

It might all fall into place but I don't have a lot confidence in Snyder's ability to tell a story let alone juggle multiple threads. It's too early to say with certainty but I am worried based on this trailer.

This looks good. I'm guessing Superman is in the last 10 min of the film. All they have to do is nail that "empty casket/ Jesus has risen" narrative and play John Williams theme and I will walk out the theater and get right back in line and buy another ticket. All of Zack Synder's transgressions can be forgive in a span of 10 mins.



I am such an easy date.

Batman V Superman felt overstuffed.

This will have three more superheroes than that film had.

God speed, Zack Snyder.

Isn't it going to be 3 hours long?

I hate long movies but I hope this time they give us the full director's vision/cut from the get go. Hope they learned from BVS.

Hopefully they at least keep it entertaining throughout, a friend of mine in our group fell asleep in the theater around an hour in...

Mmmhmm. The bigger issue isn't so much having so many characters, it's juggling expectations of what fans want to see highlighted for each one. You can't have an ensemble film like Rogue One for example with two primary protagonists and everyone else more or less along for the ride. Each character is just too big for that.

Utterly devoid of joy. Why does DCU hate color and sunshine?

It's the blackest day...

trailer doesn't do anything for me.

So much CGI everywhere. The fact that any of these scenes could very well be another "surreal dream sequence" just speaks volumes about how much Snyder goes for Style over substance imho :/

The only upside: No Superman in this trailer.

I love Superman... just not the Snyder one

Wonder Woman of all people talking that "cyborg" technical mumbo jumbo felt really off :/
