If you're a fan of the show, then you know, my
favorite superhero hero of all time is Superman.
Isn't that right, dog? Dad? I'm just kidding.
I actually did not really like Superman growing
up too much. I know not a popular opinion there.
I was more Batman guy. Sorry. But I I am excited.
Movie. um and a new superman trailer dropped
i believe two days ago now yesterday yeah was
it yesterday yesterday okay so it dropped yesterday
and we actually see a lot more um we see lois
lane interviewing clark as superman um and we
see them get into kind of a heated debate about
his involvement in the wars and he's like i'm
saving lives and then you know she's obviously
taking the stance very aggressively of like whose
authority like gave you to intervene and like
you're not representing America. And he's like,
no, like I'm just trying to bring peace. Very
classic, like Superman kind of argument there.
But we also see Lex Luthor, the engineer, Ultraman
and Hammer of. Or a bravia. Yeah. Yeah. Which
that last one is a completely new character,
supposedly. And I don't really know why. I'm
not going to lie. Why? But the engineer in the
comics supposedly is a hero who is part of a
group called the Authority. In this trailer,
she doesn't seem to be a fan of Superman. This
is also a group that's more like militant and
typically does not care about collateral damage.
And this is direct contrast to the Justice League
and also what Superman stands for. Then we have
Ultraman, who in the comics is like the version
of Superman from Earth 3. In this world Ultraman
is the leader of the Anti -Justice League. Maybe?
I don't know. So this whole kind of thing, from
what I'm getting from this, first of all is I
think this is And this is just my theory. I think
we're seeing a This is a Superman that's been
Superman for a while now. Mm -hmm We knew that
already people that like are not happy with them,
right? and then he is having conflict with his
like classic comic book core value system of
like I'm trying to be a good guy and save everyone
and Then the world is evolving around him and
he's having a battle with himself, kind of like.
That's kind of like my take is that. So. Go ahead.
Overall, we've had we had the initial teaser
trailer, which we talked about back then. So
go ahead and check out our video about that.
We had the cinema con footage, which had kind
of the extended stuff with crypto and the fortress
of solitude. And now we've got this trailer.
Did you did this? Did this? Trailer live up to
the first two. Do you think it was a good trailer
or were you were you like about it? I will say
I liked the second trailer better. Okay, but
that is because I just really really enjoyed
the interaction interaction with with crypto
like, you know, he's hurt he's bleeding and good
to play and it's like no You know, like, I loved
that scene. I like laughing. Because here's what
I'm gonna say. The first teaser, I loved. The
CinemaCon footage, I loved. I didn't love this.
I didn't. I was kind of disappointed with this
trailer. I'm gonna be 100 % honest. I don't like
the way that it started, because I thought it
started kind of slow. There's definitely some
good moments here in the trailer I Like some
of the look of this of the style of this film,
right? So here we got if you look on the screen,
we've got our shot of Ultraman I think in this
movie now we knew the Authority was gonna be
part of this movie I'm guessing because we see
the engineer right next to Ultraman. I'm guessing
in this DC universe Ultraman is part of the Authority
Right. That's that's that's my theory, right?
um later on in the trailer we see the engineer
in the fortress of solitude messing stuff up
and we see crypto take a shot at them see if
i can find the shot we see crypto taking a shot
at the engineer and i'm like dude you better
not be hurting crypto people will John wick people
go John wick on you for hurting crypto, right?
Yeah, we get we get this shot of the engineer
and then cryptos like hey What are you doing
in here and she's messing up Superman's robots
and there's Lex and then she kind of like crypto
gets a bite on her But she kind of tosses crypto
I'm like you better not be hurting crypto, man
People will be upset with you I like to look
at the costume. I didn't get anything extra out
of the trailer. I do like that. They're going
to try and tackle the big questions, right? Superman's
not really an American. He's an alien, right?
And I liked that he was like, I'm not representing
America. I'm not part of the government. What
are you talking about? Right. I'm glad they're
going to try and tackle those. But again, as
far as a trailer goes, it did not make me more
excited to see the movie. I so I'm excited for
the movie. I. I'm excited for the movie. I'm
saying this one did not increase my excitement.
Yeah. And I think I think that's fair. I'm worried,
though. My only worry is. There's so much shit
going on. I. I have faith in James Gunn. Yes,
right. They. There is an argument to be made
they pack too much in here there's actually one
shot I want to point out too I love this they
we got a little more in Nathan Fillion using
the lantern powers watch this he comes in here
and he like does the like whap Like hit somebody
With the like lantern like he manifests like
a big old hand. He's like get out of my way I
Can stylistically I love it But you're right
there may be too much here It's giving me I used
to I love I think I've said this before on this
show I loved season one of the arrow and I such
a huge fan of I love the arrow verse love the
flash When you got into I don't know season five
or six with all of the mmm all the heroes I Did
not enjoy it anymore because there were just
too much stuff too much stuff in there. Yeah,
I can understand that Um, that is a risk they're
taking and we haven't even seen that super girls
in this movie, too I did not know that yeah,
because the next movie so you gotta remember
like in our dcu like timeline We have superman
is the first movie that's releasing the next
movie that's releasing a supergirl woman of tomorrow
right With millie alcock that's already wrapped
shooting. They're done filming it. It's done
So they're doing special effects now and adr
and all that stuff right So, yeah, they got a
lot to do. Now, here's the thing. You are trying
to set up a new universe. I am with you, and
this is a trend that I think has started a while
ago that I'm happy about. The lack of origin
story. When they brought Spider -Man back into
the MCU, you notice they didn't make us watch
Uncle Ben die again, right? When we got Batman
v. Superman, like, all this stuff. I don't need
to see Clark's origin. I don't need to see Batman's
origin. I see the break again, right? It's I
Know it. Okay, we all know it. It's pop culture
zeitgeist We know okay, so I'm glad we're not
going brand -new Superman I'm glad we've got
a Superman who's been the Superman for a while
and is now dealing with stuff We have a world
that's obviously full of superheroes, right?
There's obviously Guy Gardner and hot girl and
everybody's just kind of running around doing
stuff Yeah, and I think that's good But you're
right. This may be this may be a little jam -packed
And I'm concerned about that Yeah, I Don't know
we're gonna have to wait and see when does it
actually come out July July we don't have much
longer to wait. We got about about two months
As it comes out right around the same time fantastic
four does oh my gosh, yeah Next weekend, I'm
gonna go see Karate Kid, but that's a whole other
ball of kittens. All right, everybody, let us
know. Did you watch the new Superman trailer?
