[up] there wasn't one, he's still a dog, a different breed a dog doesn't mean he's a different species, that's like pretending a black person is a different species than a white person.

They really needed a better name than "DC Universe". The namespace DC Universe 2024 looks kinda awkward since only a cartoon came out in 2024.

[up][up]Krypto? Usually he's a Kryptonian dog but in the 90s was an Earth dog and the New 52 revamped his look to be more alien.

The trailer looks good. But I am probably going to see Fantastic Four first.

Apparently, Superman has a two week lead. Ironic considering the FF movie feels like it was announced so long ago. Marvel sure slowed down.

And it will lead to better and more consistent quality.

The appearance of Krypto makes it clear that this will be a very different film from Snyder's Man of Steel.

The entire movie, just from this trailer, has the same energy as my favourite scene in Man of Steel:

Like, this 2025 film feels like it's going to be like this one scene all the damn time. And that's great.

Jon Cryer Lex was on Supergirl but he's still the most accurate Lex.

That is, until Superman & Lois introduced us to Michael Cudlitz's Lex.

Cause that Lex is absolutely frightening.

[up] They retconned it at the end of Superman and Lois' first series that they were actually a different verse that just looked the same, despite spinning off from Supergirl to start with.

This might sound weird, but I liked that the trailer started with Superman hurt and bleeding, countering the tired and trite "Superman is invincible and thus boring" argument before anyone can make it.

True. I also like the aspect that despite starting out with a seeming low point of him being defeated, what initially seems like him being gasping and unmoored is actually him forming a whistle. So it's like the low moment immediately leads into hope. Yes. I do realize that's quite obvious and is textual and not even subtext.

I was also thinking that it's the kind of situation that would be a "You're probably wondering how I got here", but it's not played for that kind of cheap humor either.

Also also? I like the energy David Corenswet is bringing to the table as not just Superman, but also the bumbling nerd Clark Kent. He's obviously big and tall, sure... but he's also awkwardly so, clearly out of his element, having just woken up, not having been able to finish his coffee... basically he's in the midst of trying to get his shit together, and I dig that.

Yeah, I agree it looks great. Not completely lacking edge, but there's color and hope and fun and cool cameos.

I really love how curly his hair is.

Doing a slow rock cover of the John Williams theme is probably the best way to score the trailer. Showcases Gunn's love of rock, but emphasizes the film will embrace Superman's legacy (could've been a neat title).

I have a feeling Krypto's gonna steal the show.

Yeah it says a lot that I was able to immediately go "That's Guy Gardner!" When he showed up on screen. Never thought I'd be able to instantly tell him from his appearance in a live-action movie.

Hawkgirl looks badass and Mister Terrific looks... Well, Terrific. So the B-Team here are in the groove too.

I just realized there's a non-zero percent chance the post-credits scene will be Superman and Batman casually chatting with each other in a cafe about the events of the movie.
