    Yup, was about to post that. Good. Now can the media just step back away from affleck and reeves about batman? No?

    WB should have kept this secret till Reeves was done with press for war of the planet of the apes.

    It's going to be better than good. It's going to be AWESOME! Give it to me now, damn it.

    Naysayers and Debbie Downers, I am not listening to you. Wonder Woman will slay all of you.

    Looks good. Still not sold on the casting choice, highly unsure if my opinion will change about that.

    Eh, I'm not really saying anything about the movie itself, just the graphic design choices for that poster. That said I don't think this'll be amazing but I also think it'll be the first "average" movie in this franchise and will get a warmer reception than Man of Steel did. I'd love to be proven wrong and to see it kick ass, though.

    lol, I know.

    Something from the latest trailer that has been bugging me since the first one: When his plane crashes, she's looking out over the cliff, right? The plane tracks to the left of her, but she continues to stare straight ahead. It's a weird thing that bugs me for some reason. Maybe because it gotta be easy to fix, maybe because it's such a small niggle that a multi-million dollar film should just have it right in the first place?

    What happens if any of the actors smile in these movies? Does the studio kill their firstborn?

    At least Batfleck got his classic Animated Series smirk once.

    It says a lot about their concern around the image of this movie and universe that they're trying so hard to generate excitement with all of these utterly lame posters and teasers all of a sudden. They still haven't convinced me Wonder Woman won't suck so they have a long way to go before selling me on Justice League. They cut a great trailer, but that doesn't mean anything anymore about the movie itself when it comes to this franchise.

    If I had to gamble on it, I'd bet WW will be at least decent. I really want it to be, at least.

    I'm expecting it to be on par with something like Thor -- unimpressive but inoffensive and for DC that'd be a victory these days. I'd rather be happily surprised by it than experience what's becoming a pattern with their movies all over again (and I haven't even been impressed by the WW trailers like a lot of people have). I can't think of a reason to have high hopes about it.

    And then we get Justice League with a teaser touting the side of Batman we all see him for -- you know, a guy who shoots aliens with machine gun tanks!

    Yea because a guy with no superpowers can sure defeat Parademons with ropes and smoke bombs, and maybe a little shark repellent.


    Batman always had weaponry on his vehicles. In comic and also in every movie.

    I wouldn't have a problem with it if it didn't feel like a sign that rather than realizing people weren't too hot on seeing Batman be a grumpy angsty killing machine that they've instead committed to "Hey, can he blow some more shit up?" It's far and away the least interesting side of that character. Even Final Crisis had him mostly just being the World's Greatest Detective and that arc's about as cosmic as it gets.

    I am totally in awe with that shot of Batman on the roof, but yet the movie doesn't have me excited one bit. I want to see where they go with Aquaman and I am hoping for some decent Batman action... other than that I am not sold on anything.

    The only superhero movie that has me excited for a while is Guardians Vol. 2 and that won't be a mindbending experience either. Give me the Batman already and a new Iron Man. I don't really care about the rest. No X-Men, no Anvegers and certainly no Green Lantern or what they are cooking up right now.

    The trailer seemed fine to me but hey can't please everyone I suppose...For BvS they showed too much, this time they showed too little lol okay. Anyways I am sure for a movie that's coming out in 8 months there will be a couple more trailers.

    P.s. love the Parademons. Hopefully they don't show Superman or Steppenwolf in any of the trailers.

    That would be great. Really glad they're playing those 2 close to the chest for now – and I'm guessing they will for some time since Superman is nowhere to be found on the new poster either.

    Unfortunately, it's a long way to November, and future trailers will no doubt show them in some capacity..? I would have no problem with them pulling a Force Awakens in the sense of keeping him 100% out of the trailers

    But again, really glad they're showing restraint for the time being, even if it means getting a pretty plain trailer.

    Also: BILLY CRUDUP. <3

    I can't say I liked that trailer (like, at all) but the "I'm rich" line is, admittedly, pretty great. I really hope Affleck gets to be in a good one of these sometime because he seems so full of potential in this role that's largely going untapped.

    I can't believe all of you. I must be the only one excited about this. I haven't seen enough of Cyborg to have an opinion yet but The Flash, Wonder Woman and Aquaman look fantastic. And I dig the Batfleck.

    Oh and hi Lois!

    I didn't care for the trailer but it is worth noting that the gigantic blockbusters like gthese often have CGI being worked on to the very last minute. There have been a lot of movies where the CGI has visibly improved trailer to trailer for identical shots over time and I'd be simply shocked if anything we saw here that was computer-generated still looks the same as it does here.

    That said I hate that Cyborg just looks like a big pile of budget running around like he's from the Transformers movies or something. Not a fan of his design in the leasf, especiallg after seeing it in motion.

    I happened to enjoy BvS a lot, even with it's flaws and sure as hell didn't deserve the nasty reviews it deserved. I will admit it was wayyy too long though, even with that unnecessary directors cut. The trailer looks pretty good, and REALLY glad they found their humor this time around. But what the hell is going on with Cyborg??? He looks like a walking CGI.

    I don't know. I think it might be pretty good and I kinda liked BvS.

    who cares about his shit design when you have ghastly Flash costume? Flash is not some fucking mech cyborg. It sucks b/c I feel like they've done a good job on the costuming so far, but having Flash run around with a bunch of metal on him is dumb, illogical & flies in the face of every costume he's ever had.
