I will say the tone of that SDCC footage is better than anything we've seen in the DC films so far.

Jackskeleton

that JL footage was better than the entire bloated 3+ hours of that stupid Batman V. Superman.

Still a little hesitant, but at least this is a sign that shit is changing for a better direction.

banthafett

That clip was awesome. And made better by no stupid Superman.

Why So Blu?

I came.

Josh-da-man

Looks good, but they're really trying to Marvel it up, aren't they? Looks like they're going for more humor and levity.

Getting a big Tony Stark vibe off Bruce Wayne in that clip. (I can imagine RDJ delivering a lot of those lines.) Not necessarily a bad thing, but I hope they don't overdo it.

Obi-Wanma

I'm as big a Marvel fanboy as there is, but I love the tone of everything out of DC today. Makes me think they're finally starting to get it with Johns at the helm.

Mike86

I got a very Marvel vibe from the Ezra Miller Flash too. Seems like a mix of the Tom Holland Spider-Man/Peter Parker (although it could have happened before Holland was cast) with a younger character amidst an older cast and the Evan Peters Quicksilver (they're both speedsters but I definitely got that vibe from the Batarang scene). I don't think it's a bad thing necessarily either though but it's all about balancing the light and serious tones together in a natural way.

I'm just not sure why Barry needs all that metallic armor and padding. His power is that he runs fast. He's suppose to outrun a punch or a gun shot or whatever is suppose to hit him. He shouldn't have to wear that much armor or have to look like Iron Man with the flash lightning bolts.

Kal-El

I really want to be excited for this film. I just can't. Feels...forced at this point. especially Barry's quirkiness.

Paul_SD

yeah. I got that feeling with a lot of it too.
I just finished the first season of Flash last night and nothing I see from Ezra Miller does anything to wipe away the impression of imposter. Especially not the needlessly complex outfit.

I'll try to enjoy it in the spirit of an elseworlds tale, but it's still kind of depressing how WB seems to marginalize its TV efforts which are so much more entertaining and truer to the spirit of the source material. Even Supergirl which I initially dismissed won me over in the few eps I was able to catch.

I'm guessing that Darkseid is going to be the key component in resurrecting Superman. He might even end up spending most of his (likely limited) screen time in Apokolips.

Why So Blu?

They used that outfit in the new video game, so it's a permanent thing. Get over it guys.

TGM

it's fun to rip on DC movies, and rightfully so, but that looked fucking awesome.

DJariya

For something that only has a few months of shooting in the can, the early footage looks promising.

I like that the tone appears to be lighter. But, let's wait and see how they handle the big action and stunt sequences and when we see Superman again.

I wasn't very keen on the casting of Ezra Miller as Barry, but that one scene with him and Affleck showed some potential. Glad he got his hair cut and dumped the dirty hipster look.

Jackskeleton

Well, if you're going that route in rationale, I sure hope that the film's Flash Motorcycle will look totally kick ass as only Snyder could possibly make it.




let it just sink in for a moment.

GCS

Please don't F this up. Big JL fan, grew up with it every Sat morning.

fumanstan

I'm not wowed or anything, I thought it just looked ok. Batman recruiting guys as Bruce felt a little weird to me, although I enjoyed the "more less" line with Wonder Woman.

Flash suit doesn't look as terrible as I feared, but it certainly doesn't look good either.

Mike86

Yeah I dunno it does feel a bit like Bruce recruiting everyone is very similar to Stark/Fury doing so for The Avengers. I didn't necessarily mind that but it does feel a bit like been there done that only DC's version.

Why So Blu?

At least he's recruiting just in the JLA flick, which is standalone. Didn't Stark mostly recruit in the after credit/end of the Marvel flicks? I don't remember.

GoldenJCJ

That "more or less" back and forth is the best thing about that trailer and honestly, may be the best bit of dialogue out of the DC films yet!

I haven't been too gung ho about this movie yet but that trailer got me excited!

Shannon Nutt

I like the trailer. Looks like they got the message about lightening things up a bit. Affleck looks a little more relaxed this time around.

Josh-da-man

Just in Incredible Hulk.

In Avengers, Black Widow and Hawkeye were already affiliated with SHIELD. BW recruited Banner. Coulsen recruited Stark. Fury recruited Cap. Thor showed up on his own hunting Loki.

Abob Teff

Agreed, I would love to see a new GL. Is there a reason they passed (contractual, rights, etc.)? As for Cyborg, I'm not real familiar with the character, but I would say the opposite of Mike -- he didn't stick out in that clip, he was completely glossed over.

Join me in my crusade then .. No Wonder Twins, No Sale!

Everybody knows Stark is Iron Man (see: Sheepero II) and Fury doesn't have an alter-ego to protect. The Bruce Wayne recruiting felt WAY out of place. Had it been Alfred or Diana recruiting it would have made more sense.

I thought the complete opposite -- I liked the Barry stuff ("I need friends!) but thought Affleck was back to forcing it, but to each their own.

Why So Blu?

I do like Momoa - dude drinks like a fish in the clip. The eyes, though. He's got crazy eyes.

Mike86

I guess I meant that Cyborg stood out as not fitting in to me. Even in the teaser image there's the others and then Cyborg looks like he's from a different movie. I've never been a huge fan of him in the comics either though. He feels like a lame duck character that DC has been trying to push especially since the New 52. I'm not sure if it's because they think he can be their version of Iron Man or what but he just doesn't work for me.
